Some gaming, some photography anything else that inspires me to action. I hope my little corner of the internet is a positive one and anyone that stumbled into it. My opinions are my own. He/him.

i cannot stress how relieving it is to see the president of a major creative tech company like nintendo voice concerns about generative ai and say they’re not interested

Can attest to this. Desperately saving up for a Sony Xperia 1 VI so I can use my Moondrop IEMs more regularly since Samsung S22 and others apparently have a stupid dongle issue that routinely disconnects audio output when even the slightest movement in the adapter dongle is felt.

Breaking: 1 in 4 Republicans said they wouldn't vote for Trump if found guilty on appeal... Breaking: 1 in 4 Republicans said they wouldn't vote for Trump if given prison time over a fine/probation... Today's news is great, but goalposts have always been on the move for voters in regard to Trump.

Watch the goal posts move from 'reasonable' conservatives. Variations of "Well he hasn't been sentanced yet" & "We won't really know until the appeals are done". They won't vote for him if convicted will keep making excuses & now have up to a 2 years of denial as they still vote for him.

As am I. Currently between keeping my head above water and having conversations with people where I can and then donating to orgs that I hope are better at collective action is my game plan. I'm also a symptom of the problem too though, having just enough to not want to make real risky moves.

With how police react to peaceful protests, how the media reports on it & how much people can get away with in the name of standing their ground/defending their property, its too dangerous get loud. Would be better if people weren't consumed by culture war BS and could focus up on real issues.

This art is so fun! The game and the podcast I keep meaning to get into! I've listened to some of the people for D&D on a NadPod show and thought they were so funny and a big fan of the game grumps for such a long time.

@thedollop.bsky.social Absolutely loved the show tonight in Melbourne!
It was an absolute blast and utterly insane.
But I'm just really concerned about how a photo I took turned out...

Genuinely, how much money is spent by the wealthy to not pay tax? Is it actually a worth while amount exchanged to mitigate higher tax or is this like Union busting where insane amounts are spent to prevent modest pay increases and benefits?

#Auspol It is absolutely wild that Dutton with all the opportunity to make some easy dunks on a luke warm budget with many points to critic on, instead chooses to be bat shit insane and not even pretend like he wants to be a serious alternative to the Albanese goverment.

Bungie releasing a pvp map pack next week in #Destiny2.
Cirrus Plaza be giving me some nostalgic vibes from #Halo Reach's map Reflection. Specifically toward the base of the map at the lower end. Obviously there will be so many other differences but just excited to check this out when it drops.

I like this because its them saying boldly without sourcing directly that being an Artist is so bad for the environment as it is measurable the effect AI prompt generation has in greenhouse gas emition which is more than the blockchain processing for standard crypto and NFTs, which were already bad.

Could be just my eyes but also that image just looks really fake. Like they just slapped a PNG on-top of another PNG.

If I remember correctly, this was originally another kind of cafe or place of business, and could be wrong here, but the first cats there were strays that were rescued by the owner and from there it grew in popularity as people came to see the cats mess with the trains.

Another shot on another day, this time just after sunset because the clouds that day were being so unreasonable so I couldn't grab the better and much more strikingly beautiful purple hue that had enveloped the sky not long before.

The Samsung S22 still captures amazing quality photos. Gorgeous god rays not long before sunset cutting through the clouds on my local walk.

Surely, if the bots do pay, then it can't be a grift that lasts long. Average users can't possibly justify paying a fee just to tweet right? It'll hopefully just quickly devolve into a future case study of the 'dead internet' before that site goes belly up.

Conservatives love to complain AI is too woke when the reality is that it’s just not very good. Grok in particular keeps aggregating jokes as real news stories, which is all the evidence you need to realize this stuff isn’t capable of logic or reason. It’s just a plagiarism machine.

I woke up this morning to all my newsletters featuring OJ's death. It made me so disinterested in checking today's news on the assumption that the rest of the newsletter was going to be as vapid. But this news fucking sucks. No news about Trump, Dutton, Xi & Putin, will matter as much as this.

Thread: Each week I run a simulation of Australia’s main electricity grid using rescaled generation data to show that it can get very close to 100% renewable electricity with just 5 hrs of storage (24 GW / 120 GWh) Results: last week: 98.8% RE last 137 weeks: 99.1% RE (1/4)

Rich countries are not going to be hit by extreme climate change a few years or decades AFTER poor countries are hit. That’s a stupid lie sold by fossil fuel companies. Wealthy cities in wealthy countries are already being hit. From Los Angeles to Sydney, from Barcelona to Milan.
