90s Mentadent got you, bro.

Holy shit.

Yeah… You wanna know why? Because some big shot over at the weiner company got together with some big shot over at the bun company and decided to rip off the American public! Because they think the American public is a bunch of trusting nitwits who’ll pay for things they don’t need rather than make a stink. Well they’re not ripping off this nitwit anymore, because I’m not paying for one more thing I don’t need! George Banks is saying NO!

Sometimes in the grocery store I think about this scene from Father of the Bride a lot.

Also I think a lot of people misunderstand the definition of “low-stakes conspiracy.”

You know the answer, right?

The people in Katrina were mostly black people.

I know Kanye is a crazed fucking idiot now, but he talked real talk for one moment in his life when he said “George Bush doesn’t care about black people.”

Both Gravity Falls and the Amazing World of Gumball have absolutely top tier writing. 100% both Dipper and Gumball are “off-model” in OPs image. For this seemingly being a “we’re so sick of the CalArts style” example people must not know that the creator of Gumball, Ben Bocquelet, is fucking French and the show is produced in Europe.

I’m in my forties and Gumball is legitimately one of the funniest cartoons I have seen in two decades.

Also, Gumball stands out on it’s own because the norm for cartoons for a long time has seemed to have been the Gravity Falls/Adventure Time/Steven Universe formula of comedy mixed with a bunch of serious undertones and long-form story. There is no long-form story with Gumball, with the voice actors literally resetting multiple times and making jokes about switching voices no less. There hasn’t really been an extremely funny cartoon of that variety (that I have seen personally) since the Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack, and Gumball positively outshines Flapjack.

Finally, it also ignores how Gumball absolutely pulls faces like this. Here’s a couple screenshots I just pulled from episodes I remember.

EDIT: In other news a new season of Gumball after a seven year haitus is dropping later this month.

Where in time the multiverse you say?

Is there a particular reason you need an nvidia gpu? Like plans to do local LLMs or other projects that really require a nvidia gpu?

Because I am just so pleased with AMD for gpus in Linux. So simple.

Not knocking your choice, just trying to understand it. Everyone has valid reasons for why they choose their setups.

Edit: nevermind I am so confused by the new naming schemes I thought this was an nvidia, others have informed me its an AMD. Nevermind me I am a dingus.

Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

I think what people keep overlooking about “optics” is that a mass number of people will never see this news because they only digest news through algorithmically controlled content providers that give them more of what they already believe.

The number of people going directly to traditional media outlets keeps shrinking in favor of YouTube shorts, Tiktok, Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram

File this under “No Shit, Sherlock!”

Although it is nice to have evidence to support the obvious.

The cost of making spambot AI reveal themselves in all caps rhyming poetry?

Priceless.

For everything else there’s Mastercard.

It feels odd/uncomfortable that we have AI governance working at credit card companies, but I guess you could do worse than someone who actually understands how to bait them.

Honestly part of the reason I love being on blahaj is hardly having to block anyone because Ada is super on top of blocking entire instances as well as individuals who would look to make blahaj no longer a safe space. The amount of blocking I have had to do is incredibly minimal.

Thanks as always, Ada.

It’s hit and miss in eastern WA, none in this old house.

I live in the desert of eastern Washington state, USA.

It’s been a fucking heat wave for a month already. I’m dyin’ over and losing so much sleep. It’s past 1am and the windows have been open with fans in them since 10pm when the temperature outside finally dropped below the temperature inside (79F/26.1C outside to 80F/26.6C inside), and as of now its finally down to… 77F/25C… still too fucking hot. It’s been well over 90F/32F every day for way way way too long. It’s hit 100F/37F at least 6 days that I’ve counted so far.

I’m a self-hoster with a lot of devices and I’ve literally shut down any non-essentials to keep the heat down inside.

I have tried journaling numerous times, particularly for mental health reasons as it is supposed to be helpful, and it has never worked for me as something helpful to do. It just makes me ruminate even more.

They were the only phones I would reasonably buy due to their ability to be customizable… Yeah this pretty much puts a nail in the coffin of using a Pixel in my book as well.

That’s literally why it was my choice. It’s one of the biggest budget films ever… and also one of the biggest flops ever.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

Allow me to repeat myself just this once.

Take your bad faith arguments and get the fuck out of here.
