Security analyst and expert idiot. I (very infrequently) have a blog at www.idiotit.com if you want to read some inane ramblings.

@plasmatron.bsky.social Any chance there's ever a digital album of the pre-release livestream of "As the Love Continues"?
I'd love to revisit one of the rare Covid high points, and you all do some of the best sounding live albums I've heard from a band.

Honestly, the solution is easier than that. Stop allowing the helicopter flights anywhere near the landing and takeoff paths.
If that's too inconvenient then tell flights to hold while helicopters fly through
The game of chicken was bound to end this way eventually.

The makeup equivalent of the ear bandage.

But that alone is tough when they drop 10 lies and you're spending 30 minutes trying to point out how the first one of ten is a lie.

I genuinely don't know what the right answer is...but I know the algorithm based world certainly seems to be making it all worse.

I think it's the toughest part about addressing Trump in the US, and part of why opposition still struggles.

How do you counter someone who's willing to just shoot off whatever the hell comes to mind as if it's fact? Someone without focus to boot.

The obvious answer is to correct them.

This feels like an incredibly appropriate first post for me to make on here.

That said, it's so much more enjoyable to piece these things together yourself and solve the problems and learn over time, but I get the temptation of wanting to have something that makes you an "expert" in a short time.

It's funny, because working in cybersecurity, I'll get work from my boss has uses Powershell or some other language I'm not great with, and I'll dabble with AI trying to see if I can get a jump start at times, but even then it's often enough for me to go "yeah, that doesn't seem right...".

I guess I'm also one of the 3% psychopaths that live almost exclusively in their subscription feed.

I can't count the number of times I've angrily grumbled at my friend for "ruining my feed" because he'd send me some dumb Tiktok video ripped to Instagram that would ruin my currated feed of hockey drills and whatever other random things I actually wanted to see.

It was honestly an incredible video, and something I've ranted about with friends countless times.

I remember taking a "Library Research" class in college in 2005 and feeling like I was unlocking a new world, because a chuck of it was how to best use search engines.

That this post from the video itself*

It's almost ironic that while watching this video, I hopped on here to check the Discover tab and see that this video itself popped up as a recommendation.

You are far more optimistic than I am.
It feels like Trump could nuke Texas and Republicans would still line up to tell him how awesome he is.

My car died on me last time I tried driving up to Minneapolis to see you. Here's hoping I don't get burned again.

I'll always remember racing home to watch his first game as a Blue. Sad he's not with the team anymore, but glad to see him still crushing it.
