While true do you think the situation on the ground would be different if we had a Harris presidency vs a Trump one?

But March 17 isn't the first day to vote, it's actually the last.

I’ve been cynical about this sort of thing for years. Like the thing on shampoo bottles that says Lather, Rinse, Repeat. Huh. Repeat you say.

@gruber.foo I was watching a @pbsnews.org video on TikTok about AI in the news and near the end was this photo.

It pays to keep an open mind, but not so open your brains fall out.

WE GO DOWN WITH THE SHIP. The moment my TikTok LIVE app froze (moments after going dark for viewers) and I knew it was over… (I was still Live on YT/Tw.) Previous post has the a vid of the last words they heard…

goodbye old friend

I bet this is because many over the air broadcasts are still 1080i

thank you so much

Having a hard time finding the thread...

My biggest disappointment with Bluesky is how some people label their posts so as not to be publicly sharable...Is Bluesky for the open web or not?

Bambu Lab has a website that will do this with AI. It’s wild.

How long ago? What prompted the change? I know I heard this a lot growing up

What’s the origin of this 110/220 thing anyway?

Oh I'm blind that's VisionOS LOL

Is this PCalc on Apple TV?

Hi, welcome to BlueSky. BTW I'm loving that Fantastical is on Windows, but did you all know there's a bug where the sidebar is just blank sometimes? Usually closing it and opening it again fixes it.

I found this picture online. This is what I had. The Datasette was definitely a different color than the C64 or my 1541.

I think I figured this out. I think the one I had was designed to match the VIC-20 which had a lighter color beige than the C64.

That's interesting... I just assumed because the overall styling and color of the tape drive matched the PET way more than the C64.

You know, I had that tape drive for my C64, and I was aware of the PET, but I never realized until I saw them side by side in your picture, that the drive was designed for the PET.
