Finally, I like to have my own little posts of my #BlackJoy, so here is me playing trumpet at my first music gig in over 20 years!

Oh dear. I've just been informed that collecting the names of every person on the planet for my naughty and nice lists is, and I quote, “a significant and wholly irresponsible breach of #GDPR “.
I'm going to hand out about 8 billion consent forms soon. If you could all get them back to me ASAP that would be appreciated.

At my house for the Winter Solstice Festival (in Chinese: 冬至 Dōngzhì), we enjoyed hotpot. Very spicy hotpot!

Alternate universe where the '90s trend for calling things "bad", "sick" or "rude" never ended and now we compliment each other's shoes by calling them "catastrophic" and "fundamentally misaligned with my values"

A teenager in the Bronx was accused of stealing a backpack. The police arrested him.

Couldn't make bail. Would spend 2 years on Riker's island awaiting a trial.

--only for the charges to be dropped. Many were appalled, they set it up for him to go to community college. That's where I met him once-- Came to electronics club. He made an LED Christmas tree-- he seemed... so so so sad.

He took his own life later that year.

Anyways. Uh, Sam Bankman-Fried to be released on $250 million bail.

@agterrane I know we’ve never met in person but really, is that something my online persona suggests I’m capable of? :ablobderpy:

I’ve posted a couple of Fiat-related things recently, so why not one more? I asked MidJourney to give me an image for “fiat 500e gran prix hyperrealistic” but it was four months ago, so I’m not exactly sure which version of the model was active at the time. This was the result.

I’ve had this picture on a series of computers for a few years now, but before posting it I tracked down where I originally got it from, and dimensions.com is pretty amazing. It seems like a person could spend a lot of time poking through the site looking at the size of things.

For an arbitrary comparison, the 2023 F-150 King Ranch edition with SuperCab is 6.36 meters long, 2.43 meters wide, and 1.96 meters tall. Its wheelbase is 4.17 meters, which is quite a bit longer than the Fiat 500’s entire length! This helps to explain why I’ve seen trucks like this try to make U-turns and block traffic for a while.

I’m not sure I’d be able to drive something that big safely. Perhaps others can.

You know what’s delicious? Peanut brittle!

You know what’s really hard for me to stop eating as long as there’s any left? Also peanut brittle!

Next time I should buy less of it. Or more. I haven’t decided which.

The Inigo Montoya method of greeting people.
Step 1: Polite greeting.
Step 2: Your name.
Step 3: Relevant personal link.
Step 4: Manage Expectations.

Mary had a little Lambda
S3 its source of truth
And every time that Lambda ran
Her bill went through the roof

Nothing’s better than spending time with family. That’s why I’m doing nothing

One can disagree without being disagreeable. Name-callers are blocked.

Apropos of nothing, here are a few recent screenshots from that I took while playing.

I noticed my daughter’s screenshots tended not to have the controls overlaid, so I poked around and realized I could have my character carry a “kamera” and take unadulterated shots.

@Yujiri …which has nothing to do with the alt text, so here we are with you doubling down on being disagreeable without cause.

Have a great day. Somewhere else, please.
