Oh hai! Quick re-intro and things you can expect from me:

- Tech and tech-adjacent commentary
- Games and film appreciation
- Extreme extroversion
- Chewing on the status quo
- Pun-offs with anyone willing

I don't take myself seriously (try, trolls) and I believe in better. ♥️

Welcome!
I've been so proud of dropping streaming platforms but I just threw down a month of peacock for this one. I rarely miss a religion-focused doc but this one slipped by!

This part.

When you're being told "AI won't replace you, but you will be replaced by people that use AI," then YEAH the number of people using AI for relevancy goes up.

Take the threat out to get the real numbers lol we're all held hostage to billions in bets towards adoption.
I think there's an important distinction between the number of people who are "using" AI and the number of people who "want to be using" AI.

I'm halfway through this one and it's helping to tie up a lot of where my itchiness sits vs. where there's still an undeniable shove into the future through hype.

The International Criminal Court is ditching Microsoft Office, saying it’s too dependent on US tech, in favor of Open Desk, a German open source alternative.

The move comes after Microsoft revoked ICC head Karim Khan’s email access when he was sanctioned by the US for the warrant against Netanyahu.

Oh man this one's rough! 😑

Everyone take a moment to understand that nuance and culture will be lost in flat wording absorbed by AI / quick-glance moderation.

Can we all agree this was a woopsy or are we really losing a key account to this?!

The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.

Fuuuuuuuuh learned today that a bright light has left us and I have no words for the loss of potential, energy, and binding spirits that help make life a lot nicer.

And how often such beautiful souls suffer in silence.

Take care out there. Virtual hugs all around.

Me: "Buddy, it's time for dinner." (I say, for the millionth time)

Buddy: "I've got work to do.

I've gotta pick flowers
I've gotta play trucks
I've gotta play bulldozer
I've gotta line my tractors

What should I do next?"

I'm not ready for the shenanigans of 3 😆

Do we have any reasoning behind @sarahkendzior's sudden suspension? Is this some spam bot trap or wtf?!

Spectrum-having buddies: might be worth having a check-in on your node health to your house. I've got an appointment underway and the technician said we're at 50% health with the whole area having issues these days.

Curious to see if anything shifts after this.
