Artist, musical performer, and former derby skater from the Midwest.

I'm single, childless, and married to freedom and adventure.

ACAB, Anti-War, and I hate Democrats, Republicans, and billionaires. (Yes, even your favorite billionaire: the pop star, the philanthropost, the legendary athlete, or the soft-spoken investment guru who cosplays as middle class.) With each passing day I get a little closer to hating everyone.

Also, I refuse to use Donald's last name out of hatred for the man and his brand, FYI.

  • TIL about Hoopla Digital, an app that lets you access all the digital content in your local library for free: Movies, Music, TV Shows, E-Books, Audiobooks, and even Comic Books

  • Shut up and take my (tax) money.

  • A federal agent said WhatsApp's encryption is a lie. Then the investigation was shut down

  • Just assume anything you're writing online, on any app, any website, any social media platform... ANYTHING is being tracked now.

    We learned from the FBI's disclosure of the Guthrie kidnapping video that every camera and microphone are surveilling you and feeding that data into a government database without a warrant, so why would you think your apps are doing anything different?

  • Must be nice to live in a country where your vehicle working is a more important consideration than your vehicle making you feel like a big boy.

  • Someone's gotta pay for all that extra tech that the US Government is going to use to spy on you.

    What's the best Linux distro for an 11 year old who has a serious aversion to learning new things?

    Jump

  • Probably Mint

    Mint is very similar to Windows both aesthetically and functionally, and is very easy to install and use. (Mint user here.)

  • My bestest boy has only a couple teeth left, but upside: it's given him absolutely peak 'blep'

  • Can confirm. That is 100% natural, god-given talent right there.

    Trump says that he did not fall down while being evacuated from the WHCD. He says he was asked to get closer to the ground by agents

  • Goddamn, he's so insecure.

  • Claude-powered AI coding agent deletes entire company database in 9 seconds — backups zapped, after Cursor tool powered by Anthropic's Claude goes rogue

    Jump

  • Claude "Powered"

    Powered.

    Powered in the same way that my digestive tract is powered after eating out on a Taco Tuesday.

    Awesome.

    White House considering bulletproof vest for Trump after third assassination attempt on president: report

  • He won't wear it because it's going to make him look even fatter than he already is.

  • America Trembles as Transportation Secretary Announces Plans for Air Traffic Controllers to Lean on AI Tools

    Jump

  • I agree.

    The problem is that AI companies are not responsible actors, even in when it comes to working with the government. We saw that with the use of Claude in Iran.

    They will surely claim they've acted responsibly in building whatever product they'll roll out in front of DOT, but I've seen more than enough shitty, cobbled-together product from them to believe that they'll take shortcuts and fail to do the work needed to make it function properly.

  • That's true.

  • What do you actually like to do with your day?

    Jump

  • Very little.

    I like that I have very few social or family obligations, and most days, I wake up and I can follow my whims. Usually that means books and wine, but I like the thought that I'm married to my freedom.

  • Microsoft drops Copilot branding in Notepad for Windows 11 for everyone, but it’s really just a rename

    Jump

  • Yep.

    They paywalled basic-ass Wordpad a few years ago. Yet another reason why I started using LibreOffice.

  • I’m not sure I’d trust ATC to be fully automated using AI

    When generative AI can't even answer simple questions correctly, it feels like maybe it's too imprecise a tool to trust with this level of necessary precision.

    And it's a shame. The US has the money to pay these people.

    If at all.
