The Obamas are competent, classy, loving, Harvard and Princeton graduates, loved by many, not on the Epstein files, got the Nobel Peace Prize, and gave us a steady economy to boot.

Had my first ever @popeyes.bsky.social meal. Spicy blacken chicken (undersized) sandwich, tasted sweet and not spicy, with luke warm lg fries. 20 CAD for two "fastfood" items - sad. For 20 CAD I could have bought a roast chook & St. Hubert sauce at Metro, still have change, and get ~3 meals.

So I made a `Tarte aux tomates et tapenade` last Sunday. Lovely simple dish and it turned out rather well I thought. No anchovies in my tapenade though in case you're a purest.

So what services and software can be relied on to not use AI? The BSDs, Linux, good ol' HP 15C & 16C, master chefs, classic flip-phones with 4G (where's Nokia 3310 when you need it), home stereos, martial arts, dog cuddles. Things built by thinkers and artists; where simple'n' sturdy has value.

@gimp.org.web.brid.gy Consider a GIMP Lite or GIMP Paint, **fast load**, quick edits, crop, resize, basic draw (like Paint), format conversion, all without Microsoft enshitification. GIMP is great, but heavy to load and get basic stuff done quick for a quick post, bug report, email, meme, etc.

#Dell & other laptop makers flog stupidly small arrow keys (even on large models) now. After the Enter key arrow keys are the most used in editing and games, they should be same size as regular keys. I have an old Dell Latitude 3330 laptop with a sane layout ideal for editing & normal size arrows.

to me
Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

I have this idea for a new version of Dicken's `A Christmas Carol`:
* Scrooge is Trump
* Ghost of Xmas Past is Regan
* Ghost of Xmas Present is Obama
* Ghost of Xmas Future is a toss up - either continue to cast Death or switch to Putin.

@mozilla.org WHY do you invest efforts into crap AI when no one has asked for it?! Why not something useful for developers like an integrated client side Markdown viewing (without need to save to disk first like add-ons).
