@garrettart.bsky.social listening to your conversation with Jesse Cox, you just mentioned your E33 analytics dropping off a cliff when doing menus. My wife and I watched you guys play and it was definitely “menus. Fast forward.” Sorry for your analytics, we contributed. But we watch all Dispatch!

This MTV recording I found from an extremely golden age of 1994 is a time capsule of exactly specifically the last time the world existed before Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You,” as shown by this ominous trailer. Make of that what you will.
If MTV only knew what they were about to unleash...

@willsmith.fun you wanted to know where people listen. I listen on Overcast and am presently listening from work at a QA/QC lab in a soda ash plant in the California high desert.

@techconnectify.bsky.social is there an interesting story behind how you got your hands on such a beautiful projector in such amazing condition?

@garrettart.bsky.social be careful researching stats on Expedition 33. You can learn how to break the game (trivialize it) with stats, and if you’re not wanting to have that knowledge you can accidentally stumble into it.

Not the point of the post but I worked food service for nearly a decade. Plenty of asshole customers but I would never mess with anybody's food. The only time I saw a coworker attempt that I yelled at them and they got fired.
Kim Davis is in the news again for being a hateful evil loser who brings shame to Kentucky.
But also I want you to know that my friend served her at a Ponderosa once in town and she was an asshole who thought she was better than everyone for being a famous bigot. And her big long hair was smelly.

usually if you ask experts why an empire fell they’ll say it’s nuanced and multifaceted, so i think it’s kind of cool that with America future historians will get to just say like “oh they took the idiot train to moronsville”

My prediction is that in that scenario, he blames the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which puts out employment data. Calls them corrupt, run by Democrats, out to get him. Fires people there, insists their numbers cannot be trusted, White House puts out its own fictitious data to make Trump look good

The woke college students were right but we can't acknowledge this because then we'll have to consider whether they're right about other things too. That I'm a big stupid moron for instance
It is pretty noticeable that even as mainstream opinion on Israel and Gaza finally shifts, you don’t hear the Responsible Adults apologizing for punishing all the college kids protesting the atrocities. Quite the opposite in fact!

I love it. I knew what to do, just hadn’t gotten lucky with the drafts. Nice!

Finally rolled credits on Blue Prince. A very enjoyable couch co-op game with my wife. I don’t think I’m of the temperament to 100% all of the story content left in the game, though. So now time to immerse myself in the spoilers!

@kirkhamilton.com I really enjoyed your Strong Songs about Every Little Thing She Does, even though I never once heard you mention the very important fact that it's also the cheat code for Magic in Wacraft 2. Every Little Thing She Does is LITERALLY Magic there! Anyway, I'll listen for your update!

"digital asbestos" is fantastic framing.
I'm going to be honest here, I think AI is going to do so much damage to the usable internet that even after it's inevitably crashes out, it's going to take years to disentangle from every space it's polluted, like digital asbestos it's gonna be time consuming effort and likely expensive venture.
I think AI is going to eventually tank in the longterm, but...
the only real way to combat this is single-interest communities. Forums, user comms, etc, with a barrier to entry. They become trustable knowledgebases. It's really the only way forward is to return to what worked best the first time
