mastodon 4.7.3I like primitive sites (the simplicity inspires) & low res video (it rejects trendchasing & herd comfort). I dislike ubiquitous javascript (it normalised surveillance), defeatism (normalises self-sabotage) & soundbites (fashionable babble is not thought).

Idiots & untagged politics get blocks, not warning.

I don't get why there aren't USB trackpads of Macbook quality, or better. Seems like something the mechanical keyboard market would give a go.

I always let anyone who answers a question I ask online away with as much condescension as they feel like so long as they actually answer the question and not answer a question they feel I should have asked instead.
Goes double if they still regularly answer the question despite being in continual contact with breathtakingly stupid motherfuckers.
Patience of a saint and tone of condescension aren't mutually exclusive.
And this was before slop.
Friendship ended with The Imitation Game/Turing Test and Roko's Basilesk, "The goblins are running amok in our AI" is my new dismissal of Big Fashionable Grift.

Someone needs to remake A View To A Kill with the alternate ending of Silicon Valley taking a bath.

Only half way through it and I'm going to be thinking about this for months, at the very least.
The single point of decentralization server is down again.

The coward rotates; the hero reaches for the wire cutters, tin snips and soldering iron.
No multimeter is needed for continuity testing as THE SECRETS WERE REVEALED IN A DREAM and it will work perfectly, first time.

Blocking by website link is worth caring about because for something like blocking news aggregator bots linking to a news and opinions mill with a glut of midwit college grads waiting to explain shit they're clueless about to the world (eg Hacker News) you're achieving nothing, new y combinator bots are made every day.
The "in London you're never more than 20' away from a rat" soundbite equivalent for Fediverse is "On Mastodon you're never more than 30 mins away from a new Hacker News bot".

Might be Odin or Morrigan has given up on email and decided to go back to what works.
Could be this is actually a secretary bird.

Maybe the next generation of captcha will replace all a site's nouns with goblins for anyone who doesn't correctly identity which treasure chests are probably mimics.

This is now the "Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power" meme, but with two characters from Thomas The Tank Engine judging (things sold as) self-driving cars.
Today I'm getting HIGH PRIORITY updates EVERY time my raincoat is brushing against my left wrist because I'm not wearing a watch all day today, which is breaking at least 2 decades of habit.
This is simultaneously funny and hellish.
If you look at a graph visualising a set of numbers, then decide to add an extra number (perhaps because there's money to be made), so just average them and include the new invention, the only thing that's achieved is a reason for people to distrust all the numbers.
Because it's unlikely before all this you checked none of the individual numbers equals the average of all the rest if its removed. To see that the you weren't first.
This is ALL of slop output to #AI training data loop, forever.
