Me: Sup, you see this shit?
Wrathful Revenant of Iain Banks: *drops pin on map* 65 hours out.
Me: Making good time.
WRoIB: *drops different pin in different map* Zakalwe is 66 hours out.
Me: Was wondering when he'd pop back up again.
His wrathful revenant and I text each other. He's about 65 hours out.
notably he stole this idea from the slap drones in the Culture books. if you calculate the walking time from Scotland to Texas under the ocean you should be able to work out when Iain Banks' wrathful revenant will make it to him.

Access Journalists gonna try to reframe soft soap bullshit I guess.
trump keeps going "gooba gooba gooba" and ingraham is smart enough to understand he looks out of touch as fuck on econ issues and she's trying to get him to say the right words. but trump just keeps on with "goo-goo gaa-gaa" and @brianstelter.bsky.social thinks shes mounting a CHALLENGE. wtf.

This.
Anyways, the solution to the despair men feel is feminism; it's deconstructing the gendered expectations, and finding a way to live in a positive way in harmony with your community

Pro Tip: When your unsecured, unleashed dog attacks my dog and I stop my dog from maiming or killing your dog in response, the appropriate reply is: I am so sorry, is your dog okay? This is all my fault. Thank you for controlling your dog.

Not "You better get your dog outta here!"

Same for every short order line cook that ever lived.

You ever watch one of those guys serve up 800 meals in a morning? Professional.
it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

To be clear, I can absolutely hack the thing and make it do what I want, but the point is I shouldn't have to hack it to make it useful.
I can't even use it for basic red team analytics now because everything is "actionable" if you have half a lick of intelligence.
November 11, 2025 at 3:15 PM
I'm just gonna say this now: ChatGPT is officially useless for even its intended use cases.

You either exploit it to get actionable info, or it literally will limit itself to non actionable information and claim it's not a hindrance to you.

Oh boy.

Well, it aint good.

Their ideology is stuck between 16 and 23 years of age.
A lot of what passes for grownup right wing intellectualism involves positions that I look at and say "Oh I remember when I was that blindly self-regarding in my early 20s"

Lynch was great in Day of the Jackal. She can be my James Bond any time.
Like James Bond can be an alias! This can be James Bond!

Flares on tripwires, kids.
Russian forces are exploiting heavy fog and poor weather to push light vehicles into southern Pokrovsk. Ukrainian sources confirm the conditions are hampering drone operations, making it harder to spot and strike Russian movements.

The Craig Casino Royale already stubbed in a pathway for this solution.

Just like Double Oh was a destination for agents who had enough kills to be used in a certain program, turn Bond into a code name to honor the agent who died.

Bond is now whoever the agency assassin is.
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Ah, you know what, my bad @schumer.senate.gov you aren't a coward; you just have no leadership ability. Get primaried, asshole.

It's almost like you've been saying from the beginning, @jsweetli.bsky.social! Weird, it's like you're good at this Journalism stuff!

Reposting this for the afternoon crowd. If you have any interest in the epistemological control issues surrounding AI ( @lastpositivist.bsky.social maybe? ) or in Chinese labor issues... Read this Gazzetta article. These folks did some great research.

And they keep slaying it quarter after quarter!

It's almost like, now, hear me out, MBAs and Masters of the Financial Markets... Providing a good service for a good value is... All you need to make money relatively ethically and without ruining lives.
that's in part because costco feels so old fashioned. the approach generally seems to be, "will this provide additional value to our customers?"
