From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine.

Great way to put it. This was basically the entire national project of NZ for a decade - entire artisan niches like ringmail makers with full-time, known work for the longest stints of their careers. If you want to appreciate that collective endeavor, you typically want it all.

I think they are best served over multiple days as a communal watch. Back-to-back is an endurance match without value imo. If you haven’t seen them at all, I think I’d personally be distracted by that sort of commentary on first watch but appreciated it on rewatches, almost ala movie-as-ritual.

It’s also worth noting for people born of a certain time, this was a technical phenomenon. You absorbed details via cultural osmosis that add to the rewatch: -did you know she auditioned under a fake name? -this is where he broke a toe! -this is a meta nod to a scene repurposed from the books! etc

They vary, and all of the cut footage makes sense as to why it was cut, but the reason is almost always runtime and not quality of scene. IMO 3 remains weakest in both cuts, so I’ve also seen the first two more than all three.

Do you use literally any search engine? The concept of indexes that are maintained by third parties you trust enough to use is not exactly novel, either in function or content.

Another example (the person you’re replying to, not you) of people thinking they are saying something insightful, when really they’re just saying “this third party *needs* to do things that fit with my preconceived notions and beliefs” with the weight of an axiom.

Apparently the government of the Yucatán recently erected a Poseidon statue on one of their major beaches. It’s a very heavily Mayan area, where people still pray to Chaac, the god of rainfall. They’re now being slammed with 3 hurricanes and significant flooding, leading to memes like this

I get it! But like… have you never had a situation where you needed to change the sheets unexpectedly? Do you just immediately wash and dry them and wait? Sheets have always been one of those things in my life where the minimum is 2.

I think at this point there have been enough choices by the usual suspects to upend precedent and *not* offer a replacement standard that they see the resulting inconsistency across districts as a positive.

After weeks of keeping the house locked down, planning errand trips like arctic expeditions, we now have the windows open and are reading in the cross-breeze. A delightful start to a birthday.

hahahaha holy shit this has been my life too. It started as “you know what’s surprisingly fun? The new Interview with the Vampire show!” and became “no seriously, it’s the best thing on right now you’ve got to watch it here let’s turn it on now and watch a couple episodes.”

imo it never gets easy but it gets easier, and after about two weeks of working out regularly I’m at a much better mental baseline (though I also need to be at a good one to do it, so I’m still a little suspect about the causal chain there). I hope future you appreciates it.

Reminder that Aaron Swartz was facing 35 years in prison and financial devastation for trying to programmatically download and open the contents of JSTOR, which led to him taking his own life. But OpenAI is going to scrape all of academia and make billions by plagiarizing it.

As someone that managed a Trust & Safety team for a social media platform, the overview reads like a low-maturity operation. That’s not a slight - rather it suggests a need for more prescriptive best practices/tools from Bluesky if they want to rely so fully on federated labeling for this platform.
