  It’s interesting and shows the power of names, because when I was growing up I only ever heard them called woodlice, and didn’t hear the name pillbug. So I kind of just always assumed they ate wooden structures and it was the rest of their diet that surprised me. Like I find them in fallen apples now that we have an apple tree and I didn’t expect that!

  This, completely. Like does Stanley Tucci have toned muscles? Idk I was too busy listening to him talking passionately about Italian food

  Already moved to Linux on a permanent basis and enjoying the better audio stability and routing for music production, so how much are they paying me to go back?

  I started playing Exapunks, a Zachtronics game. I printed off the zine and everything. Just totally enjoying the retrofuturistic cyberpunk vibe.

  I say retrofuturistic - cyberpunk now feels like an accurate commentary on the present day (lolsob).

  The revolution will not be displayed on your refrigerator. The revolution will not have Terms of Service and a Privacy Notice. The revolution will not receive over the air updates.

  The revolution will not be advertised.

  The guy makes a lot of great points and we have a lot to figure out about the here and now problems of overconsumption, AI slop, closed source, as a species.

  LLMs are peak overconsumption, they’re everywhere I didn’t ask for it.

  E.g. Zoom companion??? Why???

  I did use to find the idea of an AGI singularity really interesting but current AI is already too destructive in some very miserable ways, and it feels like entertaining a futuristic scenario is in “cosy catastrophe” territory…
