On how books work as social signals.

And a cursed book.

I've been trying to keep on top of remembering to put things in the shop (which is A Task, lemme tell you) so there's a bit of range at the moment. https://wagtails.art/shop/
If you ever see me post anything you like, feel free to inquire. A lot of the time if it's not in the shop I've just forgotten

For any elected official who needs to hear this, I impart a lesson learned from the NFL: When the other team is tired and on the back foot, you don’t call a timeout so they can catch their breath. You grind their fucking face into the dirt until the final whistle blows and you’ve won the game.

Now listen! Here's what we're going to do! We're going to decrease ICE funding, and increase police funding! We can't have any ICE abuse, but we need more police abuse!
🙂🙃

And I don't want any of you ungrateful Black men that have had guns pointed in your face for no reason to complain about it!🤡

We can't have ICE driving to elementary schools and following school buses! That is horrific! Barbaric! Abusive!

We're back to stationing police officers in elementary schools and on school buses! That way they can beat and arrest Black children without even having to drive over from the station!🤡

Bovino is out, and others too, following outrage about them lying about what was on video on both Renee Good and Alex Pretti. This is right! Hold people accountable

But I don't want you miserable people pointing out that the first thing cops say after an incident is always a lie! That's different!

"Man dies after medical incident during police interaction."🤡

Black people are very fragile! Sometimes they just die while you're interacting with them!

#Isetta might be the perfect #retrocomputing project, at least in terms of architecture and capabilities. It can run #6502 and #Z80 code, has a graphical OS, and can run games with reasonable resolution & number of colors.

The biggest barrier to growing a larger community around it seems to be that all the components are surface mount, which scares a lot of people. One must also source all the parts other than the board, and a separate board is required for programming the flash chips. An assembled version would make it a lot more accessible.

Surface mount is definitely the way to go. It's really not that hard, and it dramatically increases options for parts and allows for a much smaller board.

Something like Isetta in a case with a keyboard, LCD screen, and battery would be awesome. LCD interfaces aren't much different from VGA.

Anyone talking about whether a large language model can think or feel is full of shit. These people should go read a fucking book. Like, there are literally *thousands of years'* worth of thinking and writing on what it means to think and feel and have a mind, and these idiots can't be bothered with anything they haven't read on LinkedIn.

The Bluesky corporation continues to host and verify the official ICE account, and the account has now started posting propaganda without any bans or restrictions despite being guilty of murders and kidnaps.

Bluesky also continue to host and verify many other parts of the regime including the White House, JD Vance, Homeland Security, the Department of War.

Bluesky's CEO said in a Wired interview that Trump is welcome to join any time he wants, smiling as she said so.

Bluesky weren't forced to do this. They are choosing to assist fascists presumably because they hope it will get them favours from the regime.
