Saw a stand in the supermarket with the terms “snack innovations” on it. Which just held a lot of monster cans, which reminded me how much I dislike the empty word ‘innovation’ now. And I took a course in innovation management at the uni (not sure if that was the title but it was the subject).

More worried about hostile takeovers of existing charities tbh. Esp when the requirements to do this get eased more and more every attempt.

Think some of the KDE people are old school punkers so might not be a big shock.

One really bad consequence this deal just opened the gates to is to make it much easier for corporations to gut charities.

I had not thought of that, horrible consequence. Also makes it even easier for the mega rich to hide their money from taxes using charities.

Ah that explains why people were talking about Ed critics. When it reached my feed it had already devolved into other convos about Zitron haters.

(And yes he isnt flawless, but that just means we need more people in the anti AI space).

Punishing my teleoperators because they dont walk with their head bowed enough.

(Anyone else noticed that in the promo vids?)

Also the wsj vid title. ‘the first’ are we really going to do this again? Call every new robot the first?

two overlapping cookie opt-out popups:

Love when this happens and on your phone you cant even reach the buttons. The lost art of testing your websites.

Yeah silence is being complicit in this case.

Trump also posted an image of him in the masterchief suit. Without a helmet. Halo is not my thing but I think that is a thing which is not done, like with judge dredd, the helmet stays on.

A horny one.

Ah apologies forgot to check.

Move fast and break things

I heard there was even more wrong with what he did than was described in the quite nicely written zdoom post (who clearly just want to move past the drama) but that was third hand information. Altogether quite odd behavior of the old dev. Clearly he didn’t learn from Frozen.

Dont know the exact details, but there now is a fork from the popular doom engine gzDoom called, UZDoom, because the initial dev came out retirement out of nowhere and started to vibe code, causing all the others to quit.

Nah it happens, at least it isnt on my end.

So anybody else noticing regular outages here today or was it just me?

Shit, it is going to be really hard for me going forward to not intentionally mispronounce that.

“my favourite conspiracy theory is the one that Michelle Obama is a man.”

That isn’t even a good conspiracy. (that is also why it is a dogwhistle, if you enjoyed those kinds of crazy conspiracies you would say ‘transvestigations where everybody famous is actually trans’ is my fave (and yes they do it to everybody, it is very dumb). Focussing only on Michelle is odd, and shows in the kind of environments you hang out with (My example would be Andrew Tate, but it also isn’t funny, as it is part of the wider ‘make trans people unsafe’ campaign, and people should understand that))).

If it isn’t on this quick sneer page, you can just look at the posts with a lot of replies, either shows it broke containment, or somebody went full debate mode.

It was amazing that maupin went ‘people accuse me of being a duginist and it was crazy, never read any of his work when people said that. Minutes later I have read his work now however, and quite agree with him’. (Badly paraphrased however).

Also lol at crp.

Yeah, im just saying it exists. Not saying people make similar bad life choices to me that make you realize this stuff exists. (If you do want to however thought slimes ‘hmm borger king’ video about maupin is quite something).
