All I want is what any man my age wants 1: power 2: virility 3: a broad range of external devices to read & write to media in various formats covering all of known computing history & the cables to actually make use of them.

I had not considered the positives of a tool having a 2% success rate & a 60% catastrophic failure rate, we should definitely get everyone doing things this way.

If I only use a little cocaine, every day, I'll build up a tolerance to it. Then when everybody offers me cocaine at work, I can maintain self control.

Not to brag, but the random word generator told me I'm the smartest guy it knows.

Just like that part where Jesus said: Don’t tell Cesar how much you have. If Cesar asks, stab him, become Cesar, grant your family immunity to paying Cesar what you owe forever. Blessed are those who grift in my name

Before you get on your high horse about LLMs, remember when your boss bought everybody quadcopter drones & made you use them in your job & people all said they hated drones & only flew them because their job made them & then the regulatory agencies couldn’t regulate drones because they were inevitable & no one wanted to be left behind even though drones were killing the oceans to manufacture & operate & so people felt compelled to buy multiple drones to keep up & how that made the world better?

I might be less over-reactive, premature & shrill about fascism if others weren’t so interested in being late, polite, & insufficient to the threats.

Just met a person who told me that their favorite board game of all time is Risk.
So I pulled out our completed Risk Legacy board & blew their mind. Probably didn't impulse them to run out & get deep in to board games, but it was nice to talk about a shared interest.

I'm about to pay money to not be in Iowa, that's how much I don't want to be in Iowa.

It bugs me that 'magnetic' is used where 'ferrous' is meant.

Slapping a “I bought it before I knew he was crazy” sticker on my Ford because why should Elon get all the attention for being a Nazi when Henry did it earlier.

2025-10-22 20:24:47 UTC

“It’s the quiet ones you need to worry about” is extrovert propaganda.

2025-10-17 16:05:01 UTC
