“It’s tempting to say we’re stepping into a new world where all forms of media cannot be trusted,”…

Yes, we are and it’s shit for the human mind to have to constantly do a double take on everything to make sure it’s actually real.

“but in fact, we’re being given further proof of what was always the case: Recorded media has no intrinsic truthfulness, and we’ve always judged the credibility of information from the reputation of the messenger.”

Sure subjectivity, biases, and other factors skew things, that’s a thing. But I’m sorry, “Any information humanity has ever preserved in any format is worthless.”, is quite the fucking claim.

Been using Bear Blog for a few years now and it’s been very cool as a small static blog platform.

No excess menus, no ad junk. An enjoyable experience all around.

Having EVs make sound for safety makes sense, but can they sound like mini-trains?

Not to flagrantly self promote but that’s what I did with neocities. Used it as a static linktree alternative:

(Again, provided as an example, not “look at me”.)

Interesting. Will give it a look. Thanks!

Yeah. Surely they’ll listen, one of these years… 🤪 Might be a while yet now that they’ve got their fancy new “AI” toys to play with.

Always looking for an alternative…

Beans… I was afraid of that, had hoped my search skills were just letting me down. Thanks though!

Just admit you’ve been watching old SNL clips on YouTube, Pete.

Burn it down! (Respectfully!) (in Minecraft)

I like how the embedded tweet in the article is all, “OMG! They want to destroy our culture and the gallery is letting them do it!” Nice return to tradition posting, freaks.

What’s easier tackling people who might soup a sheet of plexiglass? (Assuming you know for sure that’s what they’re going to do and you don’t accidentally tackle tourists from Idaho.) OR cleaning up after they do their spiel for a bit?

Eh whatever, I mean it’s the Mona Lisa, it sucks anyway. 🤷‍♂️

Like you go through a teleporter like in The Fly and come out sans junk? I’m down! … (5-10 years after it’s first released.)

“We put ChatGPT into this hammer!”

“Why?”

“FIRST!”

I mean that would make a great t-shirt.

See! This freak gets it!

Bah! Most people have never even seen a horse. I never would have, had we not been dragged to see the pervert horse ballet when it came to town.

Jesus…

Illegal! Illegal Xmas! Booo!

I mean either he’s just the stupidest or this is all intentional and he wanted to kill Twitter in the first place. Either way, fudge him and his weird face.

Damn shrinkflation.
