I have three chapters edited to my... Satisfaction is a strong word, being a writer, but they're all ready to go.

I'll post the link on the 25th, as promised. My Christmas present to all of you is free stuff to read.
ANNOUNCEMENT: I've mentioned this before, but I'm writing my first book. Because my patience is limited at times, I'll be releasing it in chapters as a webnovel-type-thing.

And... you will all be able to read the first two chapters at least, possibly three, on the 25th.

Thread: The cult I grew up in taught me that Atheists, for example, only denied God's existence out of feelings of anger and rebellion, and not because they really didn't believe.

Believing that everyone on "the other side" is an intentionally evil/contrarian person is just straight up cult shit.

What a beautiful day to upload the entire banned CECOT 60 minutes episode to my 140,000 follower Twitter account. If I get suspended because of it, it was 100% worth it.

Well, it's looking like Duet Night Abyss is breaking Linux compatibility like I thought they might. The latest version lets you at least start the game (though you can't log in because the servers are down for maintenance) on Windows. But you don't even get that far on Linux. Will update later.

The man knew what he wanted, went for it without all the fickleness, and wasn't a dick about it. Fran's only mistake was not getting out of the house faster.

I keep coming back to the idea that entertainment industry executives used to greenlight more cool stuff when they were completely blasted on cocaine.

So... Cocaine for the execs, acid for the artists. Weed for the programmers?

Programmers on acid is how you get TempleOS.
I'd rather they did hallucinogenic drugs. That'd be like human brain at 200% rather than at 0.0001% when it's on GPT.
As the backlash to generative AI in video games continues to pick up steam heading into 2026, it'll be fascinating to see what is considered "made with generative AI." Can a dev team say they're not using AI if they're writing design docs with Copilot or using chatGPT to make schedules and budgets?

This issue is back again so the static crap, at least, wasn't caused by the cable. But dear God, what IS the problem?
Remember how I had to restart my streaming PC at least once after every cold boot to make my capture card stop showing static? And how I used to have the same problem with my old 2080ti until I replaced the GPU?

Changing the cable seems to have fixed that for the capture card and now I wonder...

And there she stood, moonlight glinting off the lake water that poured down her back. Even wearing nothing but shadows, she was resplendent.

My breath caught. Miss BcRib was everything I thought she'd be, and so much more.

Fuck it. This might end up being the most erotic thing I ever write, when you get right down to it.
Write an erotic story in only three words:

Yes! Oh! CHEESE!

Crypto, NFTs, and now AI have made formerly respected figures drop like flies.

Well, it was about time for new generation of creatives to take over anyway.

Seems to me like, in about 5 years, we're due for the mother of all class action lawsuits.

After all, why should schools get off scot-free for creating a generation of entirely unemployable people?
Teachers are being forced to teach kids how to write with LLMs in schools. Ya'll... IT IS IN THE SCHOOLS. We are 5 years out from having an entire new crop of writers in the field who have never written WITHOUT LLMs. No one hates this more than me. But these are the cold fucking equations.

Oh God I'm glad I ditched WordPress entirely back when Mullenweg was going off the deep end about WP Engine.

Because of course they're about to make it all so much worse.
WordPress wants to force AI onto 43% of all websites in the world

no way to de-slop it, it’s totally Automattic

You know what, I'mma just label this as #DailyCoolThing 0000008
Some absolute goddamned madman made a light Minecraft clone that is also a Wayland compositor. (For the non-Linux-nerds, that's a thing that lets you display and interact with app windows.)

I'mma be honest, I would use this over the goddamned metaverse any day.
