Grading and googling hallucinated citations, as one does nowadays, and now that LLMs have been around for a while, I've discovered new horrors: hallucinated journals are now appearing in Google Scholar with dozens of citations bc so many people are citing these fake things

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

I love looking at a specific artist on the marvel app in chronological order seeing them evolve. What happened to BWS tween 1976 and 1984? Did he take a big break or was he working on some of the conan stuff at that point?

Spent some time today figuring out how I want to rearrange my eurorack setup, focussing on different voices for guitar or keys, with the separate box for rhythmic patterns and one-shot 'drum' sounds.

Just imagining an ITYSL character looking at the burgers in that AI Dracula-Land video and saying something like 'Damn those do look like good burgers tho!'

That music video 'featuring Beck' where Paul McCartney put his face on some dancer's body with a vaguely similar but more modern hairstyle is so weird. Was this some early AI slop?

With this piece of bread on the ground in Ottawa, Canada and the one below in Perth, Australia, @drstip.bsky.social and I have successfully created an Earth sandwich.
The hot dog vs sandwich debate is concluded.
If the Earth is sandwiched, everything is a sandwich.
HAPPY EARTH SANDWICH DAY!

I know it's been said before, but I really do think the major fault of this age is how everyone is pushed to build a reputation or become known before they even know themselves.

Perfect screenshot. Worf as a focal point is already killer, then your eyes travel to Data in the friar haircut and you think "this can't possibly get any better," and then there's the finishing blow of Geordi in his space visor plucking a lute

influencer apartments are crazy because where is your *stuff*? how can it be all clean surfaces and purposely placed individual items? you don't seem to have any storage? let alone any hobbies that require materials or tools? where are your books? games? movies? music?

Wow second time cooking with this Misen carbon non-stick and it was worth the money. Replacing two 'ceramic' coated pans that have fallen apart.

The floppy American comic book is such an artifact of the magazine and newsstand distribution if you think about how long ago those disappeared it's amazing the form still persists at all.

Here's the art for the PAKLIS #8 and #9 covers.
These are the last two full comics I've had published. They both have made me, to date, negative money.
I thought I'd share some of the art with you in a thread.
