You no longer need JavaScript (Lyra Rebane)
https://lyra.horse/blog/2025/08/you-dont-need-js/ I know the basics of HTML and CSS, and from a cursory glance both seem like "easy to use, hard to master" markup languages with the mastery being very rewarding, but I didn't realise just how insanely good it's gotten lately. I've been thinking about making a "music talk" site with Hugo (from scratch)...

ngl I'm thinking on building a music talk site out of scratch with Hugo. No plans to use or even JavaScript though, and thankfully Hugo seems to allow me to avoid it altogether. The Go templating in Hugo looks to me like "logical markup".
A picture of Zool. Anyone remember Zool? Did anyone actually like Zool? I thought I did until I played it again. Cool character, great product placement(?!), awful game.
Never forget what they took from us!!!! Computers nowadays can't shoot LASER BEAMZ around the world directly into your grandma's monitor :(
Have no idea why WordPress hasn't posted this yet. :| Anyhow, something I wanted to post about LLMs, lately. Depending on where you are on the AI spectrum this might seem spicy, but idgaf. It's my experience and I'm sharing it. flaky.blue/blog/llms-ba...

LLMs are bad decision helpers
I want to preface this by saying I am not anti-AI/LLM, especially in the way it has manifested on social media. In fact, I'm highly critical of the movement due to how abusive the movement has gotten (especially on Bluesky and the FOSS community) and dismissive to information that contradicts their claims, and I do...

Might mess with Hugo a bit, using a clone of my current site with a different theme. IDK what I prefer atm so having the two in tandem will help me.

How Linux broke my backups
I try not to talk about Linux, but I have to admit, my past hyperfixation with and experiences using it may have given me plenty of stories to tell, especially now I'm done with Linux. It's like I've got a bunch of cautionary tales. This will probably end up on the desktop Linux problems post...

this is gonna make me cry laughing. 137 year old company still treats Americans like idiots the good old fashioned way
They still do, at least Nintendo of America does. If you watch a UK Nintendo Direct you'll see that they just say "game" instead of "the [game] game" like in the US. Which means that they make the narrator record two versions of the same line every time he mentions the name of a Nintendo game.
I may have to reinstall Windows, and it's my fault.
I may have to reinstall Windows, and it’s my fault.
So, I've been having a weird issue with 1Password on Windows, lately. Whenever I try to enable passkey integration with Windows, it will automatically switch it off. I can't even enable it in 1Password itself, either. It's like Windows does not want it to be on at all. If it was a group policy, I'd...

soooo the verge decided to manufacture outrage (whether on purpose or accident) it seems, with that new bluesky CEO thing huh
Thanks. Yes, that's what I was trying to say, but took too long to get there. Our politics community is strong, and I'd love for us to expand into new communities. Science and sports have already taken off. Birding, gardening, K-pop, we're open to all (except nazis and jerks).
Linux moment. Genuinely. Somehow Linux was able to force a colon into my NTFS drive and now I can't edit this file. 🫠
given the use of LLMs here (including claude) i do not envy the wallet of whoever manages this lol aurwatch.org

something I just remembered wrt the AUR shit is that Minecraft's official page for the official launcher links to the AUR package for it. The AUR is basically endorsed by Microsoft, lol. www.minecraft.net/en-us/download

Fifth #artfight2026 post for @twistedy.bsky.social Aaaah such a cute robot!!! I wish I had more time to add more details to it... Had to make this on vaycay #mako.art
