I know it is intended to be pronounced "Blues Guy" but as a guy from Chicago I will always call it "Blues Key" and a guy from Chicago knows this distinction:
Blueski with an I is Polish
Bluesky with a Y is Russian Jewish
If you've got a beef with that you better bring it to me dipped.

Nihao Baghdad
The locals are extremely friendly. All the street food vendors didn't want to charge their international guests. It reminded me of Jordan.

This video was a lot more gratifying than I expected.

"suspected hit-and-run" ... like maybe the body wasn't struck by a motorist who fled? Falling satellite maybe? E-bike?
How do you remove the “Ask Gemini” button from Google Chrome?
Easy: right-click on "Ask Gemini" and select "Unpin"

You right-click the button and hit "Unpin" ...
... and the "Ask Gemini" button is gone!
Fortunately, Reddit still exists!

A screenshot of the permissions dialog when I click "Ask Gemini" I don't even read the thing I just click "No thanks"
I clicked the "Ask Gemini" button to ask Gemini how to remove the "Ask Gemini" button.
Gemini asks ME for permission to spy on me and when I say no, the conversation is over.
World lamest genie.

Heh, it is funnier in the original Klingon.

Mastodon Inception
(I'll stop now.)
Today’s Mastodon Tweaks
TIL: how to set up "author attribution" links, mirror my Mastodon to Bluesky, configure the feed to not show re-toots, and how to effectively block re-toots of screenshots of Twitter.

Yes!

I notice some accounts here on Mastodon that are "Bluesky mirrors" but Mastodon is my main, so now I have a "Blueskey Mirror" of my Mastodon content for the normies who are never going to interact anyway. :)
Testing if https://skymoth.app/ will relay this toot over to https://bsky.app/profile/dannyman.toldme.com .

Older folks are unlikely to "rewrite" their core functionality, but you can tweak around the surfaces of the system to ensure better compatibility.

The Matrix isn't Virtual Reality; it is lonely people holding smartphones close to their faces for gentle loyalty-inducing dopamine injections into their eyeballs. A scruffy group of Resistors persist in The Real World, which is actually pretty nice and totally worth fighting…
I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.
On 1 February 2026, batteries in CAISO never reached zero discharge rate while the sun was down, displacing gas and imports in California and supplying renewable electricity all night long.

Superbowl Dread
There's a general dread of ICE and a surge of Federal Law Enforcement conducting raids while they are in town for game security. Now there are reports of pro-ICE billboards having gone up in San Francisco.
Elon Musk publicly slandering that cave diver as a "pedo guy" after he begged Jeffrey Epstein for island party invites is just incredible
Bad Bunny: Before I say thanks to God, I'm going to say, ICE out. We're not savages, we're not animals, we're not aliens. We are humans, and we are Americans.

It Was One Guy
Come morning I couldn't sleep. I really like to sleep in when I can. That's what Sunday is for, right? I taped up the old sign: END ICE. I dressed warm and headed out. Around the corner a guy walking his dog encouraged me to be a dumbass and go get shot by federal agents. He seemed…

A Man Becomes His Attentions
It's a contention of Heat Moon's -- believing as he does any traveler who misses the journey misses about all he's going to get -- that a man becomes his attentions. His observations and his curiosity, they make and remake him.
