@tante That feeling when a song, that’s a well loved staple of the bands set, unexpectedly explodes because the room is just right that day and the moods of audience and performers catch each other to create a unique moment in time…that’s the stuff. 😍🎶

@tante I don’t even understand how anyone would start a social network and not bake it in at a fundamental level *for themselves*, the first users of the thing. Have they not been on the Internet the last, I dunno, forever?

@tante feeling this. A couple years ago I gave up alcohol. First few weeks were bumpy, but mostly for social reasons. Afterwards I though “well, that went well, let’s see if I can reduce my sugar intake!”Still trying, I can always string a month or two together, but its soooo much harder. 😵💫

@tante I think that’s unfair. We have no proof a goldfish would host anything Nazi-related.

@tante They also expanded the map quite a bit with the Sky Islands! It’s an absolute delight so far.

@tante yes, though I feel like the ratio between engaging writing and straight-up garbage takes has gotten a lot worse since he started the podcast with Ben Thompson.

@tante I have to keep picking up my eyes from the floor because I keep rolling them too hard and I'm only a couple paragraphs in!

@tante Arrakis? From Dune? Every day a little bit more like Saturday morning cartoon villains, I guess.

@tante Als ich heute morgen am Zeitungsladen vorbeikam und die Magnetschwebebahn Schlagzeile gesehen hatte, war mein erster Gedanke "Warum hängt hier jemand ne B.Z. aus den 80ern ins Fenster, ist irgendein Jubiläum das ich verpasst hab?", weil das hätte mehr Sinn ergeben.

Anyone over the age of 30 who has spend any time in tech-adjacent spaces still cheering for #BigTech "joining" the #Fediverse is fucking deluding themselves. We've been through so many cycles of this shit over the past twenty years, how some people can still trust #facebook to do anything remotely ethical is beyond me.They're not here to join, they're here to destroy. This is just the most cost-effective, PR-friendly way of doing it.

I’m a huge horror dork, but I’ve never seen a Saw movie in my life. Not a single frame. Not even a trailer. This is about to change. I’m gonna watch *allll of them* over the next few weeks. I expect it to be terrible. Really. really. terrible. #Saw #Horror #Movies

Pretty sure the people who use and very publicly brag about stuff like Obsidian to “organize their thoughts” are the same kind of people who run a Kubernetes cluster for their Github-hosted web”app” about their collection of React components they “developed” to do things with LLMs.

Listen, I was stuck in the “productivity” mines once too! You can escape! It’s much nicer outside.

My big achievement this year has been that I now instinctively hit "C-x C-s" regularly. #emacs #IfYouKnowYouKnow

Pop-culture would probably on a slightly better trajectory right now if they had done a couple of DS9 movies back in the day.#StarTrek #DS9 #SciFi

This whole idea that "AI" is a helpful tool for autistic people, because it lets you write more "professionally" or whatever, is incredibly toxic and frankly demeaning. Insulting, even. It buys into the whole concept of "one correct way" to express yourself in society (the neurotypical way) and that being your authentic self is wrong. Having ways of expressing your thoughts that don't conform to that dogma is something you should repress. Hide. Feel ashamed of. Fuck. That.#ActuallyAutistic

Watched Stephen King's Night Flyer last night and enjoyed it. The first half hour is really strong. Trails off a bit in the middle, but the ending is solid. Miguel Ferrer really goes for it as the ruthless, cynical tabloid reporter. #Film #Horror #Movies #StephenKing
