Hey #Severance fans, I made something small to entertain you as you wait for next Thursday (sound on, SFW):

I never hear anyone talk about Wolfram Alpha (wolframalpha.com) anymore. Do people even know about this site any more? Because it's fantastic and I rely on it several times a week.

I have a genius idea for a breakthrough retail business: A Trader Joe’s, but with enough parking spaces.

Friends with Bluesky accounts: I can be found there at @kfury.com!

@nelson Yup.

@amd I absolutely loved it.

Just a reminder that as of today X/Twitter’s ToS allows them to use any content you have on their servers to train their AI, or any other purpose they see fit to use it for. Including DMs.

I re-watched Silo in preparation for season 2 and the more I watch the more the silo reminds me of the city in Stray.

Especially after the first ep of season 2.

“The Muffin Man” seems like a pretty satisfying role to have in a village.

I’m a journalist and I’m changing the way I read news. This is how. “I’ll read news, not other people’s reactions to news.” https://www.niemanlab.org/2024/11/im-a-journalist-and-im-changing-the-way-i-read-news-this-is-how/

Well it hurt but I finally nuked my Twitter account (I was the 115th user). It was a good sixteen years and a bad two years.

Now I'm on Bluesky, Mastodon and Threads! We'll see how they evolve.

Trump held a rally at a McDonald’s and now I can’t unsee it.

@todbot “Leaf blower (happy endings extra)”

@mathowie That's surprisingly wholesome. But then again so is Jack Black.

@kfury@threads.net Just testing!

@jmissig Funny thing with that game, I didn't realize there was a 'run' action until one of the sewer scenes where you absolutely had to run to make it. I made it through half the game without realizing I was making it unnecessarily hard.

Such a beautiful game. I thoroughly enjoyed it and hope there's a sequel.

@PavelASamsonov The counterpoint is that it has allowed minority groups of all kinds to organize flourish, connecting members across distances to create robust communities that would never have had critical mass if they relied on geographic proximity.

@jmissig Good call. I played Stray on Xbox and loved it.

I just got a PS5. What games should I get?

On XBox I like to play:
- CoD (Warzone and S&D)
- Rocket League
- Borderlands
- Left4Dead
- Portal

I'm thinking about:
- Red Dead Redemption 2
- Astro Boy
- Fallout (something)
- The Last Of Us 2 (remastered)

Thoughts?
