Me, an idiot: โ€œSo, kids, by setting the thermostat a little lower and eating less meat, weโ€™re doing our part to make the world more sustainableโ€

VCs, very smart: โ€œWe just raised $100 billion dollars from the sovereign wealth funds of three petrostates to build the worldโ€™s largest AI supercomputer. It uses as much power and water as Guatemala and the primary use case is for management consultants to autogenerate powerpoints for justifying mass layoffs.โ€

I am driving myself insane by building electronic computer logic circuits and spending the time I'm not doing that by playing Arknights

This is made funnier by the fact that energy in Arknights is called "Sanity"

my new burger restaurant concept is inspired by modern software. the options for mayo are "yes" and "maybe later", and if you pick maybe later, the chef stands at your table with a squeezy bottle, threatening to add mayo to your burger when you least expect it

So many gaming sites writing about how โ€œBungieโ€ released Marathon on Steam or itโ€™s โ€œnow freeโ€.

Frustrating to see people not doing basic checks. It was the Aleph One team, not Bungie, and itโ€™s been free for years. Itโ€™s just now on Steam.

Got tired of sites not loading without enabling cookies. "Shut up, you don't need sessionStorage, you're literally just a static product page!!2!"

So I fixed it. Then wrote a post about it.

When using Microsoft Word or Google Docs, don't just make text bigger and bolder to make it a heading. That will work for sighted users, but screen reader users will miss that and just hear it as normal paragraph text. Use actual heading styles, like level 1 through 6.

I'm convinced that "AI" is just a buzzword on like 99% of the stuff it's on.

starting to draw a proper car - i did this first version in a really basic way so i thought it'd tank my performance, but it turns out it still stays at like 45+ fps on the device. not bad!

i'm very bad at lowpoly modeling so the car accidentally looks like an old-timey beater, but i think that's sorta funny so i'll probably try to keep that vibe

@solonovamax oh so child marriage is fine but being gay is too much? gross

vent about accessibility 

@solonovamax if it helps, there's a setting on discord that makes the role color separate from the name. Sadly i don't think you can do much about the user's shitty personality, but the name might be reportable?

Really wish Discord had put a bit more thought behind letting servers set any color for roles cause some are unreadable depending on your theme.
