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).

Comment The tendency of Linux developers to reinvent wheels is no secret.

Experiment of the day: a dessert #pizza of a #maple syrup glazed base & sliced apples, ever so light dusting of nutmeg, cooled, and topped with sliced strawberries and small whip cream flowers (canned sorry).
Not from any recipe; just improvised. Worked out pretty well I think.

@dominos-pizza.bsky.social The current TV ad lies. Two topping pizza, with a choice 25 toppings does NOT result in millions of combinations, maybe hundreds (25 * 24 = 600). I really hate false advertising that exaggerates, because they can't do basic maths.

You know its going to be a quiet day when you have to buy your own birthday cake. I couldn't even find a Tiramisu, settled for a Bacio instead.

A month since Monster.ca abandoned all their users forcing them to re-input all their info into a stupid (AI?) based system to generate a resume via myperfectresume.com. Why do I want to waste time painfully redoing a resume? Why did I loose my active account with applications? #Monster #FAIL

Unavoidable AI has developers looking for alternative code hosting options

Non-US #news outlets should demote #USD as the reference currency; switch to the #Euro as the benchmark of measure. Nice silent protest and will certainly piss off Mr. #TACO. The USD could maybe be found in the small print at the bottom of the currency exchange page or business news segments.

I love my fav. Italian resto, but #pizza there is so expensive now. So I taught myself the art of making #Neapolitan style pizza (thin crust nice puffy corona) in a home oven (lot trickier than it looks- science). For ~25 CAD of ingredients I can make numerous pizzas at home. #LifeSkills #SaveMoney

With all the shit in Windows 11 (Copilot, Recall, Microsoft login, TPM 2.0 requirements, and other insane crap unnecessary to an Operating System), Microsoft should be considering Windows Classic maybe with selectable UI (XP, 7, 10) that is lean and does what it was supposed to.
