Burnt butt crack, got it!

I know nothing about guns but I wanna know, what happens if he starts firing that thing?

Somehow suddenly remembering that feeling of discovering the head of Team Rocket, that I’d been fighting all this time, was the final gym leader and having my little mind blown.

This is an official government chat bot apparently.

From the article:

The announcement touted the ChatBot as a way for business owners to “save … time and money by instantly providing them with actionable and trusted information from more than 2,000 NYC Business webpages and articles on topics such as compliance with codes and regulations, available business incentives, and best practices to avoid violations and fines.”

After the case where courts ruled in favor of a person who got false information from a chat bot about bereavement fare for flight tickets, you now have a case for setting up a cannibalism business and suing when they try to stop you

It literally became one of my favorite Ghibli movies for this very reason, I hadn’t even heard about it before I watched it, but it’s absolutely amazing

Porco Rosso

At this point it’s an internet inside joke, and like any niche inside joke, there’s a bit of a rush when you recognize it, that you’re in on something special. In the beginning it was mostly just mocking the absurd sudden tone shift in the original Ctrl+Alt+Del comic but like a lot of memes it seems to have evolved and now the fun is creating and finding the loss pattern in unique and different ways.

I like it, it’s fun

Having lived in two of those three countries, a lot of the internet is randomly censored. Browsing in Malaysia I’d sometimes get some kind of government page popping up with no idea why the site I was trying to visit was blocked (blocked porn sites are a given in both Malaysia and Indonesia but honestly, just random sites kept showing up blocked). Indonesia blocked tumblr for a good long while, and I’m pretty sure Reddit still is. Plus in Indonesia, I really don’t trust ISPs to keep my data safe, intrusive ads are everywhere to the point I’ve blocked SMSs from any number I don’t know because the moment I got an Indonesian SIM my phone started blowing up with ads.

Truth. I was genuinely angry seeing how Spotify kept trying to buy up everything podcast related. Felt like I was screaming into the void about how platform exclusive podcasts are antithetical to the free and open nature of podcasts. I hope their billions of dollars invested into podcasts continue to bite them in the butts.

Somehow I think Podcasts will survive enshittification. The basis is just RSS and file hosting, so at its core, it’s possible to create and distribute podcasts without huge capital investment. There’s always gonna be some people trying to get their voices out and Podcasts still seems to be the easiest way to do that so until some better method comes out, podcasts will live on.

If you’re talking about Podcast networks, streaming services, ad networks, then yeah, those might face some kind of enshittification and destruction, but no matter what, I’m pretty confident some good podcasts, and some good ways to listen to them, will stick around.

That’s what I thought, but when I search for Onenote alternatives it’s always at or near the top of every list.

No, first time hearing about it. Every source I looked at talks about Zim or Joplin, but Xournal looks good! So far between this and Rnote I’ve got good contenders for my note-taking app.

The handwriting here looks absolutely amazing! Just can’t see if this is a cross device thing from the site, don’t see a lot of documentation.

So far this one looks the most like what I’m familiar with, so probably will try it first! The save format not being stable might be a deal breaker for now though as like I said, I move between devices a lot.

My deleted message was me accidentally replying to the wrong post.

This looks amazing for handwriting! I'll look into it more. From what I see so far though, I can't tell if this will sync notes between devices Replied to the wrong post… So far this one looks the most like what I’m familiar with, so probably will try it first!
