I don't know what it is about the little animated videos we have to watch occasionally for secure working practices training, but my god, they make me so irrationally irritated. Why is the malicious actor always portrayed as a moustachioed villain?! I am 50, not 5! 🤣🤣

Do not dunk

Do not respond

Do not quote

Do not @ them

Do not screenshot

Do not even type their name

Do not type anything adjacent to it

Do not feed the trolls

Do not give the algorithm reason to feature the post

Do not grant them the pleasure of wasting your time and ours

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Fuck 🥺.
Rather specialist item I'd been saving for on eBay, hoping I got the funds before it sold, just sold 😭😭.
This week's really just been total shit.

35 years ago today, Ron Gilbert finalized the gold masters for Monkey Island.
(They were labeled 1.1 because the game was sent back into testing during the final two weeks, prompting a version update upon its return).

A defining moment that launched a legendary adventure!

Age verification?

I watched E.T. at the cinema when it came out, recorded songs off the radio onto cassette, and remember the "Get Ready for ITV" theme tune first appearing on TV (UK)
Age verification?

I played with metal lawn darts, had gravel under the metal merry-go-round, and had candy cigarettes.
Age verification?

My first introduction to Morgan Freeman was when he was in the cast of ‘The Electric Company’.

Wow. Gorgeous decade resistance box.
Solid brass contact surfaces, copper multi-leaf wipers, wound manganin wire resistance elements. No wonder this is still pretty much working fine despite its age, when the newer ones in the cheap job lot I got are all over the place.
Work of art this one!
