I pushed the new WTF Happened out:
syrsly.com/blog/novembe...

It is a lot shorter this time around. Not because I felt peer pressure to make it shorter but because I was tired and had depleted my saved articles for the month.

Hope y'all like it.
WTF Happened November 2025
Don't mind the shutdown, government's fine. MrBeast Land is a thing now.

Uhm, this sounds awesome, so I'm about to play catch-up on the earlier episodes so I can do this, too.
I'm watching the Stranger Things finale in a theater this weekend. 🙃

The new year is coming up!
What is your new year resolution for 2026? 🤔

Played more ARC Raiders tonight. Been loving the game, but I wish it was a coop adventure, not some battle royale with monetization. The players are more dangerous than the robots, and they can really ruin an otherwise enjoyable progression.

Staring at VRChat mirrors is captivating in the same way staring at real mirrors is horrifying.

As long as it doesn't kill the initial vision of the game/app/website, more accessibility options are awesome. What sucks is we're starting to police accessibility as a requirement, and that kills creativity in a lot of ways. Yes, some industries *should* be policed, like vital services.

Um actually... my phone booth looks like this.

If any dev friends have a position open or a hole to fill....

I'll see myself out. 😅
Hey y'all, I'm a software dev, and the contract I was working under, for 5 years, got bought up by a larger company. They're not keeping a lot from the team, and I'm one of those who got cut.

If anyone knows of a software job, preferably remote, near Olympia, WA, please let me know. I have 2 kids.

Merry Christmas!
Got off work early today.
Time for a nap and some Christmas things.

I stopped watching 60 Minutes over a decade ago, but this might be an episode to archive in 1000 places for historical purposes and safekeeping.
In Canada, the 60 Minutes clip about CECOT that Bari Weiss canned was broadcast. @jasonparis.bsky.social‬ captured it. Enjoy. Bluesky only allows 3 minute videos max. I hope this works. 1/5.

That's ArtStation right now when I try to sign in. They need better web developers pronto.

Should I kick users from the discord if all they do is advertise their "art services"? They don't seem interested in anyone else's posts and also seem like a bot in how they respond. I just don't know how to handle this because bots are so fucking real these days and all their art posts could be AI.

Finished watching both Gurran Lagann movies tonight. That was quite the acid trip.

Here's 15 games/apps from the Steam Winter Sale which I'm considering picking up. I'll probably add more to it and remove a few, but I'm only at ~$31 and I think I want my budget to be ~$40.

What're you getting in the Steam Winter Sale? 🤔

I've always subscribed to the idea of "standing on the shoulders of giants". That applies to most things in life, but with AI, it applies way more than it normally does.

Where are you happiest? 🤔
I dunno if I would agree that real life is where happiness is. Real life is not video games and real life is full of pain and sorrow.

The rest of it, sure, go on.

I mean, yeah, food, but still....
