One of the things I find frustrating about sci-fi is that because of the American influence of it, all of the planets are called things like Zexion 5 and Danshassia 7. I’d call them things like ‘Nether Roundthorpe’ and ‘Spheresbury’. Gravity Bywell. Chalfont St Globeby. Bishop’s Goitre.

The Da Vinci Code. No contest. It is so fractally stupid.
fun question: what’s the maddest you’ve ever been leaving a movie theater? not necessarily worst movie you’ve seen, but the one that just pissed you off the most. mine is Batman v Superman

Artists! Have you had experience with a good (or bad) desktop inkjet printer? My trusty 11y.o. Canon is biting the dust and it's hard to know what replacement suits my needs (HQ printing on matte cardstock, not £££). Windows 11, considering Epson EcoTank ET-2980, but open to hot tips!

Hate to add to the national stereotype, but this is not just an Edeka thing. Better butchers make roses out of salami and black forest ham. This is amateur hour. 😁
Pffft. Red roses for Valentine’s Day? German supermarket Edeka is out here making sausage bouquets.

I love waking up in my timezone. "Look at Big Thing" -> "Oh it's that dude nvm" is pretty much the amount of time I wish to expend on this, and it's all done by the time I get to my desk.
Keep being sent this completely nonsensical hogslop. It has multiple egregious lies, which is appropriate because he’s a fraud. Back in September 2024 he falsified a bunch of benchmarks to hype up his open source model. Article is total dogshit. I should annotate it venturebeat.com/ai/reflectio...

Did anyone see the big game?
I didn’t.
Just a bunch of people running around.
If they’re not going to release big game onto the field, they shouldn’t call it that.

Die US-Regierung baut Konzentrationslager (für 50 Milliarden), erschiesst ihre eigenen Bürger und der Möchtegerndiktator postet Obama als Affen. Oder wie Caren Miosga in der ARD fragen würde: „Ist Trump ein Vorbild für Deutschland, Herr Chrupalla?“
