Over the weekend I read @modiphius.bsky.social's new Discworld RPG core rulebook. It's a love letter to Pratchett: fast, funny, and relentlessly story-first. Ankh-Morpork pops off the page, and the book keeps the satire without drowning you in crunch. (1/8)

I couldn't say. I've never have ads on yt, since I've used firefox and ad blockers for decades by now.

Even on phone, since I can't watch anything that gets interrupted by an ad every other minute.

That is really cool.

Yes, I find the less himan they look the better they work for me.

Caracan @caracan.bsky.social · 1d

That too, yes.

I am so conflicted. One one hand I love puppetry as an artform. On the other somehow muppets give me this massive disconnect. I was never able to enjoy watching the movie becausr the Gelflings (?) gave me the creeps.

Well, that is why we trust in word of mouth, isn't it.

How the Email Found Me @howtheemailfoundme.bsky.social · 1d

The email has found me blending in seamlessly at the conference, vast hat covering my auxiliary eyes. I extend a friendly tendril to the facilitator. ‘Fortuitous time allocation, ape, commence bonding! I too enjoy the consumption of essential minerals.’ I’m nailing it.

The intergalactic mail order crash course in terraner behaviour 101 really paid off; congratulations!

It's a spooky month, so it's time to treat yourself with something cute! How about some bat prints? 🦇🍷

Seven years of Crowley Time! Seven years of spoofs, goofs, sketches, characters and messages in bottles plucked from unknown shores. If you’ve never listened to it, make today the day you step into the abyss!

The episode image for Crowley Time Episode 1: Into the Abyss, as it appears on the show’s website. The episode image features Tom Crowley’s head peering into a big hole.

I had a very similar idea once. Much less well executed, though! XD

Also, as former biologist, since when do we pass medical diagnoses in our profession?
I must have missed that memo.

The email has found me waking from drugged darkness, chained to a chair at the head of a long table laden with jewelled cups and a rich banquet. The smell of roasted meat is mouth-watering, dizzying, but mingles with unspeakable rot. Every other seat is occupied by things that were once men.

And that right there is why we are raging against unregulated genAI. And by extension all genAI.

AI in any media context is making people dumber and misinformed.

Caracan @caracan.bsky.social · 2d

Let them crash. Telling us ‚it‘s too big to fail‘ is a lie to make it go on for longer. Full ai saturation hasn’t been reached yet. It’s not been around long enough. Nothing will be lost by legislating it out of here.

Epic movie. And brutal.

A lot of stuff came up on my end this week, so I only had time to do keys and extremes this week. I'll noodle at this as much as I can before the weekend is through to make up for lost time, but then I'll stop and move on despite wherever I end up. Thanks to the few who came to my streams!

I have three nano tanks on my windowsill. Can recommend they are fun to watch.
