Heya, posting over here these days. A little late to the show, but whatever. I often used the name _uxp on the other site, but have converged on this username. Thanks for stopping by.

Stares at 7.25% interest rate on a 30 year mortgage, up from just below 6% in February of this year

this is anti-pansexual discrimination

First vote shows the landscape, which scares the shit out of enough people to get them to show out. Good system, I think we should adopt it.

We tried "everyone is entitled to an opinion" for three straight decades and all we have to show for it is four thousand cases of measles and a death cult running the government. It's time for people who don't know what they're talking about to shut the fuck up.

She's got more wrinkles on her face than my 77 yo husbands balls.

Reminded of the time a decade ago I spent 4 months trying to get the company I worked for to reimburse me for a 49.99 programming book to share with a 6 person team as we learned a new technology.

This is what happens when young men do not have the moral and spiritual courage to just admit that they're dumb.

Not Le Petit Four?

yo what

Browsing through Steam Next Fest's page and rather disappointed in the AI Slop posters. I'm somewhat ambivalent about AI in the code, but it's quite a shame they are putting so little care into showing the actual game style in the poster. First impressions is tanked.

The public polling and early vote analysis in the final days always reminds us that we talk about the things we measure more than we measure the things we should talk about. And this smart aside from @joshtpm.bsky.social is about where I am now. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/frien...

you can set your watch to either

Incredibly ~~sad~~ enlightening to be reminded of the people on this website who are unable to comprehend someone existing outside of the internet. Like, this is where I scream into a void. You are my void. 90% of my day is doing shit everywhere else.

Yesterday in AI image generation. If République were straight ahead, Bastille would be behind you (not to the right). Also, If you’re heading towards République from Bastille, Gare de Lyon would be behind you, not to the right.

I know it's grim but if we're gonna get through this we're all gonna have to take a deep breath and decide to be the grownups again

I’m sorry to have to be the bad guy here but we need to recognize that we live in a compressed air thrusters world now. If you’re not finding ways to teach the critical use of compressed air thrusters in your classroom, you’re setting your students up to fail when you could be setting them up to fly

The year is 2006, and I'm planning a road trip with a stack of printed MapQuest directions. The year is 2026 and I'm planning a road trip with my trusty MapQuest directions.

This is a big deal. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/10/15/o...

This was such a great answer from Abdul El-Sayed about his previous criticisms of President Obama.

A+ example of motonormativity. "Rasmussen said the layout forces drivers leaving her angled parking area to not only back out, but watch for pedestrians on the sidewalk, people biking or riding scooters in both directions and traffic on 400 South." If that's too hard, don't drive. Problem solved!

I was on the telly.

No, bombing Yandex has not impacted automated Russian trolling operations in the U.S.

This is hands down the dumbest post I've ever seen. Congrats

It's already illegal. Congress banned it near-unanimously in 2022. That law allows the ban to be lifted only if Russia withdraws from Ukraine. He's simply breaking the law that's already on the books.

We're weeks away from the Marines being issued cowboy hats and spurs and the Navy uniform being replaced by full black ninja leotards.

We should probably talk about AltNOAA🧵:

I'm old enough to remember when TPB was squeamish about allowing Faces Of Death content on their site

The judge ruled that even though Melissa Kyle had more than 91 pounds of meth in her car, cops had no justifiable reason to search Flock for her license plate and no reason to suspect that her travel was suspicious. Therefore, all evidence from Flock and vehicle search must be thrown out.

real ones know

It is apples/oranges here, but remember Japan didn't just wake up one day and decide to bomb Pearl Harbor. We were blockading oil shipments to their island country, leading to similar outcomes. Maybe we shouldn't be fucking dicks.

But Doctor, I Am Pagliacci

Quite the headline massage.

all this is both foolish and unnecessary

new wolfenstein looks like shit

My neighbor told me Iran keeps sinking Indian oil tankers so I asked how many Indian oil tankers he has and he said he just goes to the shelter and gets another Indian oil tanker afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding Indian tankers to the Straight of Hormuz and then his daughter

You're basically Napoleon if you can make entire organization(s) get on the same database

This is the kind of weird take you expect children would ask their professor on the first week of Intro to Economics 101 in high school. "We're just built different, Mr Jones."

Some dresses I made in #dressmaker :)
