Main Character Syndrome, but fun. Boston-based. My wood shop and my dogs are my personality. If you're still reading this, I'm your dad now. Sorry, I don't make the rules. I don't speak for my employer. I do make @polytoken.dev. signal: edr.91

The infuriating thing about this argument to me is that there is an objectively true argument that serves the exact same rhetorical purpose, which is that per unit cost for virtually all consumer items fall with quantity. Boots theory doesn't need to be true, move on. The poverty tax is Dollar Tree.

You know who was really rudderless? The crew of the HMS Surprise when they had their steering tackle shot away by the treacherous French

this dog loves nothing more than On A Rectangle. it doesn’t matter what size the rectangle is. find rectangle, dog on.

I have no idea if this is what's going on or not but the results tonight are all consistent with my broad belief that Democratic primary voters are scared to death of losing again and as much as they like left/progressive ideas they are fucking terrified of losing again

Yeah & I don't think it was even necessarily "knowing more than Hank Green." Those scripts are written by teams & staff writers! And like… every SciShow video about agriculture has stuff in it where I go "Haha actually it's a little bit different than that!" That's what knowing a field is like!

Omg, I saw that happening and, despite having a literal pile of yarn and crochet hooks covering my coffee I table, I could not figure out why it was worth anything more than briefly feeling smug that I knew more about something than Hank Green

I might think that Emily Wilson's film takes kinda suck but if you are the sort of person to say something manifestly stupid like "she's not very bright" you should get the entire hell out of my light cone no surprise that it came from a statue avatar, proclaimed liberal though they were

I don't care what it is, they should make it higher. Triple it if Kyoto is on your itinerary and your BAC has been above .04 in the last year. (I was really bummed out by the overtourism there and I bailed in like 18 hours)

Unseen Japan@unseenjapan.com · 21h ago

ICYMI: On July 1, Japan raised its departure tax and visa fees to help fund overtourism measures, while lowering passport fees for its own citizens the same day. With the yen this weak, though, visiting Japan remains a bargain.

electability arguments are always but always bullshit that is trying to snow you. vote--and advocate as vigorously as you can for--your preference in the primary, vote against the greater evil in the general. anybody who presents a different option takes you for a rube.

you should vote for the candidate that you think will do the best job in office for their constituents and not try to do some pool-trick bankshot based on ads that haven't been cut yet and perceptions of how median voters will react

this is clickbait garbage a) it wasn't ~dronez~ stuff, it was the same vanilla GPS jamming that has occurred at WSMR for decades b) a crew should *absolutely* be capable of conducting a nonprecision approach to an ILS, *ESPECIALLY* if there's a NOTAM out for PNT jamming

A routine medical flight, on a clear night, ended with a plane crash that killed all four people onboard. Investigators say it's the first known US civilian plane crash tied to electronic warfare. This won't be the last story of its kind. A must-read from @jeffwise.bsky.social for @wired.com

aaaand Polytoken latest just received 0.6.0. now supports model request options for things like fast mode on providers. Specifically supported for OpenAI and DeepInfra for now, but you can extend it as necessary yourself. (also some fixes to support deepseek-v4-flash-0731, it's good!)
