Was the throne actually comfy?

I agree the other two were.

My #AI prediction :

In the future people will need mental workouts to prevent brain atrophy because AI will have reduced the daily human need for mental exertion.

It parallels the need to go to the gym today as mechanized transport and industry removed the need for daily physical activity.

Nice! Just last night I literally put Master and Commander on my list of books to read for this year.

Silhouette of Sherlock Holmes’s with pipe and magnifying glass

“I never #guess. It is a shocking habit, destructive to the logical faculty.”
- Sherlock Holmes

Yet Holmes ignores the fact that there’s always a degree of uncertainty with any conclusion, excluding formal math and logic. The better question is - when is the risk of being wrong low enough?

Nice!

Does that mean the fridge is also perpetually filled with leftovers? 🙃

The board was unimpressed as the robot spun in tedious circles.

“What is this travesty?” yelled the CEO.

“Exactly as commissioned. One fully functional #Turning Machine.”

“That’s Turing Machine, you idiot.”

“Not my fault your GenAI-produced contract had an obvious typo. Now pay up!”

Two mountain climbers with the text - When you feel like quitting, remember why you started

Our spinning ball of rock traversed another 2π radians around the sun.

The traditional time for bold planning, for course corrections on life’s journey.

This year I consider today the anti-Passover. I will be #resolute and ask why every other day is NOT different than 1st of Jan.

The final day of 2024 - a time of introspection as we #prompt ourselves to improve in the new year.

It’s easy to list ideas for embetterment. Eat healthier, exercise, do daily tasks #promptly instead of procrastinating with diversions.

But how to make habits that last beyond mid-January?

Wishing all my Bluesky friends and followers a happy holiday season be it Christmas, Hannukah, Yule, Kwaanza.

Let us #reflect on the past year and celebrate our successes, smile at our proud moments, but also consider where we can improve both ourselves and the world around us. Onwards!

Thanks!

I like what you said back when I posted on Threads (wasn’t on Bluesky yet) when I said I chose this book over other raffle prizes including chocolates and bottles of wine :

“Books get you through times of no wine better than wine gets you through times of no books”.

Brilliant!

Two books on a table

Really stoked to separately win these two books by SFF All Star duo @jendiagammon.bsky.social and @garethlpowell.bsky.social :

“The Inn at the Amethyst Lantern” from Jendia’s recent giveaway and “Stars and Bones” from a raffle at Novacon!

Thanks to you both for sorting my holiday reading!

Black tree branches silhouetted against a gray sky over a snowy land

The branches scrawled out dark #silhouettes against the sunset sky, and a snowy blanket dusted the sins of the land with a veneer of #purity. The #monochromatic landscape offering a #dramatic moment of winter beauty before the bitter freeze of the night.

Not sure what’s worse, the size of that stack or the thought of burning through seven Sharpies worth of signings

They now R2D2 can serve drinks, as he did on Jabba’s barge, thus the droids put their jobs at risk.

I am a bit concerned that it’s public who you’ve blocked. I don’t know why anybody else should know that.

So probably some troll has a few accounts and scans periodically to see who blocks one of them and then follows with a second account.
