aaaand i asked roomie to borrow their table temporarily so now i have a perfect workspace for this!!!!!

@Hellien Merci 💜

@Hellien Je serai super intéressée d'essayer la même chose, as-tu la recette ? :blobaww:

I think I am going to have to start gently mocking my friends and colleagues who use AI-generated extruded media product for things like article illustrations.

My dude, it looks like ass. It looks cheap and tacky and gross. Is that how you see yourself? Is this a cry for help?

(paraphrasing) you have the responsibility to learn to do better than what your society taught you.

I don’t know where that came from but that.

If I was exactly as my parents and society fashioned me to be, I would be a terrible person.

There needs to be some sort of Fae licensing scheme where you're free to use my code, of course, but if you use it in ways that displease me you will regret it and suffer consequences in an eldritch, mischievous and delightful-to-me manner.

Look, I know AI is controversial, but just for a moment, let's set aside our preconceived notions, our biases, the environmental impact, the massive cost to train and run models, the labor exploitation, the intellectual property theft, the inaccuracies, the mania it causes in users, the destruction of search, the deskilling of professionals, the devaluation of creative work, job losses, and lack of economic value from enterprise implementations.

Wait, what were we talking about?

Interviewer: Can you explain these gaps in your resume?

Me: Those are typographical indicators called spaces and line breaks that separate words and paragraphs.

Okay, I really have to get organized again or else the days will fly by 💀

@dumpsterqueer preach

@voltur It really is, but I found it worth struggling after a few dozen hours 💜 their discord is really friendly too! (fuck discord obviously, but still)

Sometimes, I receive questions which leave both me, and the person asking, bamboozled.

> Your website loads so quickly! What CDN do you use?

There is no CDN. It is just really small and simple, mostly text.

> Sure, but is that Cloudflare, or...?

None. It is a tiny website, just a few kilobytes per page, on a tiny server, at my home, connected to the Internet via my ISP, Andrews & Arnold.

> But are you / they in the cloud?

No. The webserver is in Newbury, in my garage.

> Neil, please can you pass my questions to your technical person? I don't think you understand, your website cannot be in your home. It must be in the cloud or have a CDN.

*Neil puts on glasses and false nose and moustache*

I would like for the Canadian government to ban me from all dollaramas, present and future, for the void it creates when I come into contact with them could end this world and several alternate realities worth saving.

This demigirl just want to receive their credit card so they can subscribe to some bike-sharing thing and avoid the very expensive metro :blobcat_ohnoes:

I'm quickly getting the hang of it :3 still a bit wonky but I can already feel how much better this is.
