Steelpan 🍳 (he/him)

Today, I'm grateful for the fact that I messed up the DropoutTV RSS feed I made and someone on Reddit politely messaged me about it, wondering if I could fix it. This means that other people actively use and care about the thing I made. Thank you, random Redditor <3

The smell of an extinguished candle might be one of my favourite scents

I wish Dutch political ads were this good (Mamdani's other ads are also peak)

This is SO messed up. 🫥

I had a few messages and tags today asking me to clarify my stance on Israel, which was odd as I've been pretty outspoken against genocide and in full support of Palestinian statehood...

I've drafted three anti-capitalist rants in this app today. It's just that kind of day.

This video by Sage the Bad Naturalist was, as always, inspiringly insightful about a topic I wouldn't otherwise give much thought to. I'd definitely recommend it! youtu.be/YmTF03DYsWE slight nsfw for the first half

THERE WAS AN ARG AND I MISSED IT?!
Anyways:

2PM EST August 25th

Instagram Live by Sam Reich to release episode 11 of Game Changer season 7 "Samalamadingdong"?

Watching NuWho from the start, since I've only watched loose seasons.

"You have declared war on the Cybermen" to the Daleks

"This is not war, this is pest control" in return

Brutal.

This kind of experiment has been carried out multiple times across several countries and every time the result is the same, so you'd think more places would implement it but no, they don't.

These results will be swept under the rug, ignored, or lied about by the rest of the world.

'Hello human, nice to meet you'

“Why take a 12-hour train when I can fly in 1 hour?” ✈️

Because that “1-hour flight” is never just 1 hour.

Airport trip, security, boarding, delays, ground transport… it’s 6+ hours door to door. ⏱️

Flying wastes your day.

I believe someone on the subreddit said it was "End game"

amtrak’s marketing team gets it

I LOVE HOMELABBING

(i really hope i didn't tag a random person haha)

some days i find a website with an obscene amount of information about a very specific, niche topic i have no use for but can't help to adore. today is such a day. @chakoteya.bsky.social documents the full transcripts of all free and televised eps of both doctor who and star trek: www.chakoteya.net

YouTube video by Internet Archive 2 hours lofi 🎞️ beats to scan/read microfiche to

the internet archive is still such an incredible project. especially now, it's so important. if you're looking for some lofi, go support them (or consider donating directly if you're able to): www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPg2...

I really hope this works out

ssssshhhhhh

the biggest advantage about tricking your thesis supervisor that chipmunks are somehow 'scientifically relevant' to the field of AI is that you get to go on forest walks and call it 'research'

Internet Roadtrip Let's take a streetview roadtrip

Internet Roadtrip is my favorite thing on the internet right now—it’s basically Twitch Plays Google Street View. They started in Boston, spent several weeks on a quest to cross the Canadian border, and are now exploring New Brunswick. neal.fun/internet-roa...

Hypothetically, potentially important headsup for anyone failing to get good results for their research.

not me. why are you looking at me?

Mind-boggling effects

Love this

automatically. If you want to check it out, you can find a list of the RSS feeds for each show here: singlepaper.github.io/dropout-rss/

#DropoutTV #RSS #GameChanger #Dimension20

It's great, I use it to have one central, curated feed of stuff I care about on the internet that automatically updates! YouTube, Nebula, and now.. Dropout! Dropout.tv does not offer an RSS feed for new releases, from what I could see, so I made one! It updates once per hour and new shows are added🧵

What is the lifespan of software? What if you make software that's silly and full of whimsy? Will people remember it? Anyway, here's a video someone recently posted of “Good Luck, Babe!” by Chappell Roan performed through the composer feature in Mario Paint, a game released on Super Nintendo in 1992

this is big
