i can't believe eliza would do this smh

Contributing.md diff. Text added in the actual diff:

"when contributing to Mycelium, an alleged "operating system", you are free to use any tools you deem appropriate. this includes the LL of your choosing, agents, loops, gastown, AI code review tools, Amazon Rufus, or even "vim'. however, all contributions to this project (including my own) must abide by exactly one rule:"

Text added after the colon on the final line in a completely different font and several points larger for comedy purposes and definitely not because I was too lazy to edit the page source on my phone: "no emacs"

also in a DC-6 you were paying for the privilege of having pretty good odds of falling out of the sky

Debord is fun because you can open Society of the Spectacle completely at random and have about 1 in 3 odds of seeing, like, something that describes the experience of social media in 2026 so well that it kind of makes you want to give up and die lol

71. What the spectacle offers as eternal is based on change and must change with its base. The spectacle is absolutely dogmatic and at the same time cannot really achieve any solid dogma.
Nothing stops for the spectacle; this condition is natural to it, yet completely opposed to its inclination.

ok what happened to timbuk2? I have one of these (first picture) which is now long-since discontinued, and it looks like a perfectly normal, reasonable work bag. But I was looking and every single bag they currently sell looks like the second or 3rd picture?

this is why you don't tell baby linux users to use arch lol

r/archlinux post: "I accidentally removed /usr/sbin/"

I typed sudo rm/usr/sbin and as I pressed shift I accidentally pressed Enter and I thought it wouldn't work or at least ask me something?? Because the directory is not empty? Now some commands are missing, like which... am i cooked

the nuclear sword of damocles is weird because in any timeline in which it hasn't yet fallen it's a huge good for humanity because basically overnight it forced empires to stop throwing tens of millions into a meat grinder, but also "in any timeline in which it hasn't yet fallen" is just this image

the survivorship bias plane from the famous historical anecdote "do not design the survivorship bias plane"

we've got some good ones but unfortunately maybe the coolest one of all is just a baseball stadium (and currently has Oracle's name on it 🤢)

is Kash implying that he was assassinated by heart disease lol

Kash Patel on Twitter:

"Senator Lindsey Graham was a devoted public servant, a fierce defender of our nation, and a true patriot who dedicated his life to the people of South Carolina and the United States.
Our prayers are with his family, loved ones, colleagues, and all those who knew him during this devastating time.
The FBI is assisting local authorities and has made every necessary resource available."

Stop posting bigfin squid slander, they're neat & goofy & kinda cute

An orange squid with a big mantle, one dark eye-looking patch, orange "arms" that look sort of like crab legs, with one white tentacle dangling from the end of each arm

I had to scroll back more than an hour back to find a single actual reference to what the Maine shitbag's latest thing *actually was*, so to save everyone else some time: his Wikipedia article's "allegations" section is going from frankly weird to extremely traditional shitbag fratboy

"A woman who dated Maine U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner says he forced her to have sex with him nearly five years ago despite her repeated objections, an allegation Platner denies."

The Dan Luu archetype is very funny (though I don't think its x coordinate really aligns with what he's written about it?)

It's a perfectly fine tool that people are losing their minds over. You used the first version, thought 'neat,' and got on with your life. You find the discourse exhausting and you have receipts about what it can and can't actually do. You are correct and also no fun at parties.

About halfway out along the "overhyped" axis (x) and maybe a quarter of the way up the "good" axis (y)

Your company made you 'AI Lead' on top of your actual job. You use it, it helps sometimes, and you've stopped trying to explain to leadership what it can and can't do. You run little experiments and post the results. Just try things, you keep saying. Just try things.
