Whenever I hear someone talk about mogging I think of a big sexy orc named Mog.
i have been ip banned by know your meme?????? to my knowledge i have never been ip banned by anything, though maybe there’s some bans i don’t know about, don’t remember, or didn’t realize
the cool thing abt folding ideas is that the episodes/videos/documentaries are all also designed to have their own narrative to help communicate the story, and which can be picked apart for deeper appreciation of the thing. im not good at this, mind you, but it’s nice!
i feel stupid tbh. like i can’t plan things or do logic. i love logic! i love having rules and using those rules to solve problems, and through the act of solving the problems you can refine your understanding and definitions of the rules!
tbh i think the one thing bsky has over fedi feature-wise is its “feeds” system
something i’ve been thinking about lately is that if folks want to gloss over all the ethical issues with genAI because it alledgelly is a good “tool”, well, that argument also has severe limitations
first of all because the improvement of models doesn’t happen magically, it takes computing power and thus real, concrete resources in the world for it to happen, and that absolutely has a limit, a limit that will be severely felt when the bubble bursts. it might look like it now but venture capital money won’t keep being poured into this stuff indefinitely
second because AI companies aren’t your friends and least of all charities. access to genAI might be mostly free for now, but haven’t we been through the good old enshittification process a million times? first you provide people with a service that is useful to them for free, then when they’re dependent on it you both start charging and decrease quality
in any case, there is no free, magical life improvement “tool” here. these things don’t come with no strings attached, as much as it might seem so at the beginning, bc it is in the interest of the grifters in command that you think they have no strings attached. come on, at this point we should all know better.
being trans on twitter is like being too lazy to move out of a bad neighborhood. being trans on fedi is kind of the default. and then there’s being trans on bluesky which is chiitan liking all of your posts
I think the sulfur caves in minecraft could be cool, if they just made two changes:
- when near the sulfuric acid pools, metal armor and tools ambiently degrade
- sulfuric acid pools do damage
that's really it
I also like the idea of sulfur being flammable too
