Life is tough, laughter can make it a little less so. "AI" pushing me to become a Naderite even though I'd always thought of myself as more of a Geshel. GOMS! 🔱

Dynamic pricing means the business is trying to figure out your personal pain point so they can extract the maximum profit from the transaction. Boycott any business that does not display its prices and tell them why you’re doing it.
They got caught. They’re backing down. But this isn’t over.
There needs to be a class action lawsuit.
Instacart admitted it was using AI to charge different people different prices for the exact same items. Algorithmic price gouging. That scam could cost a family of four $1,200 more a year.

I aspire to this level of Dadness. I will never make it. But I will keep trying.
In 2023 I became obsessed with videos of dads in cargo shortswaiting in parking lots during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. So when she came to town, I grabbed a camera and headed down to talk to them. I thought it'd be funny. It turned out to be something else entirely.

For your holiday ambiance, I've made a hypnotic yule log fireplace with ultra slow motion macro footage of flames stretching & warping like liquid as fire reacts with calcium chloride & barium. This is real fire I filmed, not CGI or AI.
10hrs, 4K, crackling sounds, no music, no ads. Happy holidays!

Alt text is incredibly useful for sighted folks too.
* It helps me understand the reference if I don't recognize the image you're posting
* It makes the image searchable
* It gives you many more characters in which to express your rapier wit

Dammit people, add alt text to your images! So many times I see awesome art or cool comics, but can't repost it, because it's not accessible.

Holy fuck. Die Spitz present one of the two best music videos I’ve seen in ages. Punk metal feminist multi-instrumentalists with swords in a laundromat. (Hat tip from @quasarsniffer.bsky.social)

What oil, what land, what assets did Venezuela steal from the US? And when? A social media post from an alternative reality.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

Look man I don’t think the people being poisoned by data centers really care if you remove the generated assets before shipping, and I don’t really care if you “only” use the machine that stole my shit and convinced teens to off themselves for internal PowerPoints.
Cool motive. Still bullshit tho.

A lot of roads are under water today, especially in the Snoqualmie Valley. Do not drive past road closed signs!
UPDATE: SR 203 is also fully closed in both directions from NE Tolt Hill Road near Carnation to SR 202 in Fall City.
Expect delays and avoid driving through standing water.
