Looking forward to seeing your shortcuts Stephen!

Is it just me, or are strollers turning into SUVs? They’re taking over sidewalks the same way SUVs took over the roads in the US.

Doing the lord’s work as always!

Pentagon will build a training facility for Qatari pilots in Idaho Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says the U.S. military is moving forward with plans to build a dedicated facility in Idaho to train pilots from Qatar, an important U.S. ally in the Middle East.

But wait, I thought the Qatari was a gift with no strings attached… hmm guess not.

YouTube video by Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell AI Slop Is Killing Our Channel

Props to Kurzgesagt for continuing its commitment to making educational content for humans by humans.

Palpatine from Star Wars saying Ironic.

Hot take: It’s ironic to see the US criticize the Riyadh comedy festival in a time when this gov cancelled late night shows, aligned with misinformation influencers and comics, vilified the press, cut public broadcasting, arrested protesters, and let’s not forget shot rubber bullets at journalists.

Just applied to my very first Sauceathon. Let’s see if I get in this year.

Hey Pizza folks (Pizzamigos? Pizza slices?) - We've done later launches in previous years, but this year, we launched everything together! Don't hold out on a purchase if you are expecting new items. Get things now before they sell out!

And to add new lil 🍕👶🏻 nerdfighters too 😉

Congratulations, Austin! So happy to hear about the arrival of your little one. Wishing both you and your partner lots of love and happiness as you start this new chapter. Hope mom is recovering well too! (Tip: Go grab her the largest combo Sushi plate you can find asap)

I really want to 3D print my brain, but I can’t come up with a convincing argument to get a doctor to put me in an MRI.

Sometimes I feel that I chose the wrong year to start making content online with all the AI-generated slop flooding the internet.

Maybe it’s the right time to start in spite of the AI slop and create what I want to see with my own hands.

Sora 2 is sorta impressive too I guess.

I’m not a betting man but if I was I would start betting on which US company is going to sell to the Saudis next for crazy amounts while screwing everyone but the ultra rich.

There is this Arabic proverb that goes:

“Raise a snake in your sleeve, and it will one day bite you.”

Folks seem to be outraged by EA being sold off. Just to think that the US used taxpayer money to buy up Saudi’s oil and make them filthy rich, then the Orange administration cozied up to them even more with “deals”.

Just for them to go and buy up American sports and entertainment companies.

“You’re absolutely right! I will stop saying absolutely right from now on”

I’m mad that I didn’t come up with this first, haha. I pinned it to my feeds, thanks, Austin!

[17:51]“…and then you can even 3D print these things, too.”

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!

Honestly I was expecting them to be priced at $1000+ like the ROG Ally. I was surprised to see it starts at $599.

Yet you can’t pay me $1000 to go back to Windows after using Steam OS.

Instagram had a notification, I open the app, it routes me to Threads app. I open Threads app only to see a notification suggesting I check out post by random people I don’t know.

Why do we have to deal with this crap!!!

The kicker is that they offer a subscription to gain access to other models. Such a weird concept to pay a subscription for an AI keyboard… but hey, it’s 250% funded already 🤦

@jeffgeerling.com Look! It seems an “AI company” liked the Local Private AI Keyboard built with CM5 video (youtu.be/qQ42lbLFxv8?...) so much that they decided to make a copycat of it and sell it.

Definitely gonna buy one (sarcasm!)

A word of caution from my experience with my in-laws is to try and curtail YT from recommending AI-generated traveling/history content. I was seeing YT recommend 1hr+ videos being flooding their feeds after a few videos they mistakenly watched that had an AI dub in their language (Arabic).

UC Berkeley turns over personal information of more than 150 students and staff to federal government UC Berkeley has provided the personal information of roughly 160 students, staff and faculty to the federal government in a directive from the UC Office of the President.

It’s funny how UC Berkeley dares to ask for donations from us for Oski Day right after it betrayed its own students and staff.

Hey @silversat.bsky.social! Coming to say hi after learning of you from @jeffgeerling.com video about “PIS IN SPACE!”

Would love to see more of your content here on BlueSky. ❤️ ◻️🛰️

I don’t know about the rest of you all out there but I’m constantly hounded across the internet by Odoo and their ads. From LTT videos to my favorite podcasts.

If I see another Odoo I’m gonna lose it!

Thanks to Steam Deck I’m finally ditching Windows and converting my PC into a Linux NAS server until Valve releases SteamOS for Desktop.

Of course the battery had to die when you need it most.
