I have seen a lot of deranged takes about AI, but oh my goodness

COPPER GOLEMS MY BELOVED

You can submit a song without accompanying artist? So you don't have to have any vocal skill yourself?

Hmm... might want to dig up my MIDI cable again

On my way to Basel!

Here's hoping I don't get Deutsche Bahned

I GOT EUROVISION TICKETS!!

Jury shows for SF1 & SF2 and also the ArenaPlus GF viewing show. Hopefully I'll also be able to get tickets for the semi-final liveshows through the ticket exchange.

Anyway see ya in Basel!

Set a PR of 48:17 on the 10km yesterday in Alphen aan de Rijn! It took three bridges, way too many roundabouts, and an unusual lack of clouds.

I'm pretty sure I've never had multiple moves in one chess game that the engine marks as brilliant, let alone three in a row...

And it seems to be all because both me and my opponent completely missed a simple knight-for-rook trade.

Hahaha it took me way too long to realize what you were referencing

EUROFANS UNITE

A useful tool to find where such screenshots came from is Special:WhatLinksHere. However, in this case I cannot find it so it must have been removed from the page since you took that screenshot.

Mind is blown
Happy 2025

I think Europapa also has a shot though. Maybe it's just because I'm Dutch, but I feel like that song has had more of a legacy than Rim Tim Tagi Dim.

Also, I am definitely accepting Héra as canon.

Just went to see War of the Rohirrim with no expectations, because any hope for good Lord of the Rings content was burned long ago. But man, they delivered! What a beautiful piece of storytelling. And I love that they used the same leitmotifs as in the trilogy. This is exciting, I want more of this!

Merry Christmas to my BlueSky followers!

Have a tropicoin

IT'S CLAUDE!! 🇳🇱

We're gonna have a banger entry again this year

Preregistration for Eurovision 2025 tickets are open! Fingers crossed I can get some of 'em again 🤞 #eurovision

And the first AI cheaters are in as well... The person at the top of the leaderboard completed both parts of the puzzle within 9 seconds by simply feeding the puzzle text into ChatGPT.

Why can't we just have nice things?

Screenshot of the Advent of Code page on personal times. It shows user "Jochem" with two starts at the top. The page says: "These are your personal leaderboard times. Rank is your position on that leaderboard: 1 means you were the first person to get that star, 2 means the second, 100 means the 100th, etc. Score is the number of points you got for that rank: 100 for 1st, 99 for 2nd, ..., 1 for 100th, and 0 otherwise." This is followed by a table with just one row: day 1, part 1 time is 00:03:37, part 1 rank is 1099, part 1 score is 0, part 2 time is 00:06:17, part 2 rank is 1283, part 2 score is 0.

First two stars of the year are in! 🎉 #AdventOfCode

I—
HOW??

They still haven't found different songwriters though 🫤

The Mån's back!

Lineup for Melfest is looking very exciting 👀

The Eurovision Heart would be a good one, yeah!

I think the old Eurovision logo (with the three "V"s) could also be really cool.
