"The Stand" by Stephen King is literally worst book ever to be reading when you get a viral infection of your upper airways (aka, a nasty viral cold with lots of mucus)...

Scared me even more than just the book would have!

So the company that literally has access to every locationdata I've ever generated, is so fucking stupid it thinks I live in the US... I was in Virginia for 5 days this year back in May...

Fuck you @developers.google.com and your automated bullshit! How can you be this stupid?

a screenshot of an email from Google. They notify me that they will be changing my country of residence from Belgium where I've been living for 42 years to the US where I've been in total for 5 days back in May... this company has every bit of locationdata I have ever generated yet it's this stupid... And the rest of the world is listening to these idiots about how to do tech policy... These guys are dumber than an empty bucket of paint... Changes like this have a huuuuuuuge impact as this would result in me no longer being protected by the EU regulations and laws. And of course, in the ticket, they don't give a free text field so you can explain to them how absolutely fucking stupid they are...

WTF is this #AiSlop #nightmare of a #cheap "artpiece"?

Instead of paying almost zero royalties for a single #picture they went the cheaper way, a #GenAi model to generate a picture of something that has thousands of true #photos available.
#Brussels
#read the #alt #Belgium /CC @jbaert.bsky.social
an AI generated "picture" of the true existing event of when they cover the Grand Place in Brussels... (in a public bathroom) So instead of simply paying one of the thousands of photographers that have amazing pictures for sale of the flower carpet in Brussels, this toilet-company that demands 1.1 euro to go #todeloe (to the loo) went for a nightmarishly bad image generated by what looks to be the worst Image model they could find and took whatever the first prompt shat out... probably because they loved the supercrisp 3D designed bee, they just went with it, However, the bee, the "flowercarpet" and the public and buildings are each in a seperate persoective, artstyle and colourscheme. This generates a picture that looks cute at first glance. And clearly that's all they took before printing this and mounting it on a huge wall in the toilet, where we have to stand superclose, and are nose to wall to this abomination. closeup of the description, showing an "Ai Generated" marker... Description: "Did you know that every 2 years the Grand Place in Brussels is covered in a Gigantic carpet made of colourful flowers?" and below that is a waving hand with the branding Toedeloe and below that is a marker "AI Generated" they out their branding on it, so I guess they must be proud of this shitty AiSlop? there are literally thousands of absolutely amazing pictures and even paintings available of this event, this thing is an insult to humanity... And it's contempt for us is clear in how it depicts us vs the ultracrisp 3D generated hyperrealistic yet anime styled bee... Closeup of the "people" on the "picture" which is a nightmarish blotchy mess, and there are mighty weird "people" in there, and for some reason the flowers are in a different perspective than the people and buildings... the people are so messed up, they would probably claim it's a "painted" style, but the flowers just in front of the people look like it's trying to imitate a photograph, but then from a 1998 era digital photocamera or webcam... on top of that, the perspective is "offensively" wrong (don't know how else to describe this feeling from my brain and heart that just want to reject the existence of this PoS... then there are the buildings... oh my god the buildings... you see, at first view they look "a bit artst" but then you start looking at the lines and you'll see that they are all a single mass of a seemingly living building... it's a horrible blend of Gaudi and H.R. Giger, together building a Grand Place that's worthy of a Cthulhu novel where the buildings surrounding a Grand Place covered in colourful flowers eat humans and feast on their souls! Closeup of the buildings and gigantic anime-yet-real-life-style bee that's squatting on the flowers. the people are a nightmarish blob of colours that mix and mingle into some weird shapes... the buildings look made of a blend of Chtulhu style living buildings and alien-like constructionlines, like it's a vague interpretation of reality drawn through a nightmare vision of living buildings, mad perspectives and colours... except for the all black windows as if the interior is an infinite empty horror show of void... to make it even weirder, a single window on the ground floor is NOT black, but a myriad of colours that generate the idea of and advertisement, yet is truly an unrecognizable mess that confounds the mind...

While I understand they (Sportpaleis) need the money, the selling out of it's name to a fucking IT company from the Netherlands makes me furious... 92 years of history sold out for the worst name ever... it's not even a dome!

Go home Strava Athlete Intelligence, you're drunk! Fastest trailrun on this route? I was faster on Monday this week! (And I've done it even faster before...)

It did something similar earlier this week about heights...

It can't even compare numbers...

So, @unesco.org recognizes #Belgium bread culture as #world #heritage.

So this 'Arden Pleasure'(Ardens Genot) from the subplace at my local trainstation is the best start of a day at the office... Half a #French baguette, brie cheese, dried ham, tartar sauce, rocket salad, peper ( +samurai sauce)
a wrapped sub plus a coffee on a table the end of a brilliant looking sub, made from half a true French baguette, tartar sauce, dried ham, brie cheese, rocket salad, a dash of pepper (and I aska bit of samurai sauce extra) for the ultimate start of the day...

my desk in racemide, with a wheel in the middle and the space where my keyboard and mouse should be is empty because I took out a plate that perfectly fits that space. my desk in it's normal mode, the olate is inserted, so I just have a conplete desk again with a steeringwheel straight in the middle of the desk and my keyboard and mouse in front of the wheel.
