I read this last night and I had a dream that there was a Knives Out sequel based in the Firefly universe. 😂

kill the imposter syndrome in you head because not only is there someone out there doing it worse than you, they're also using chat gpt to do it

Anyways.

found out that this is a legitimate company and I'm losing my goddamn mind

Exactly. Algorithms are optimised for "engagement" as its primary metric, and that means conversations between people.

Unfortunately, this means your content gets served up to someone with a different political opinion, and you know how the rest goes...

Facebook is distinctly more callous though.

Calling AI "slop" has been one of the most effective instances of the public rebranding a product and it pisses them off.

Cheeky cat nesting in a laundry basket

Sleepy cat on her back, with her legs going off the bottom of the bed

Meow :3

holy shit fluxer is nearly at 100k users :3

🧵 Regarding Discord alternatives.

The amount of misinformation, fear and things taken out of context is fucking insane right now.

Yeeep. Years ago, one of the old sysadmins hooked it up to Amazon Elasticsearch to try and improve the search results and quickly racked up a MASSIVE (I want to say 50K?) debt. 🤣

Truly though. Trying to retrain the habits of staff because of that broken search is a full time job ISTFG.

It was SO fucking bad, like holy hell, who signed off on that?

You'd look up "Opticomm" and you'd get ZERO results. "Opticomm " and oh yep THERE IT ALL IS.

Like for fuck sakes cmon, it couldn't even do fuzzy searching, given most searches were short handed to "opti".

Jelly, that'd be proper fucking sick.

Oh yeah Pendulum too of course 😆

That's insane, and damn it no one does DnB quite like them. Would love recs for similar bands if any come to mind! :3

A post to the what is it subreddit. It asks "friends new house, what is this?". Below, a photo of two rectangular bars stuck in parallel to the outside of a brick house. (This is apparently something people use for firewood)

Trying to figure out legacy code

God I need to get one of them for my HA install. Unfortunately all of IKEA's matter line has had MASSIVE stock issues since the start of the year, so it isn't that big a deal until I sink a good minimum $300 into that!

My workplace recently moved off of WikiJS to Confluence and I fucking hate it. Any decent functionality is paywalled, and I can't make ANY of my articles look nearly as nice as I used to.

Unfortunately search was COMPLETELY broken on WJS, and everyone literally stopped using it because of that 😩

My two girls have such delightful personalities, I swear.

The :33 all the way because it brings all the :3 to the yard, and they're like "meow".

They lost all my respect with how fucking !BADLY! they fumbled communication on the 11th Gen BIOS firmware beta, that left people with half functional USB ports (and worse) for OVER A YEAR, leading people to question if the person in charge of the firmware had been fired.

Yep, he's mentioned to me via DM (last week) that this is indeed his Reddit account.

I should post some thing! Cats are good, right?
