Would Sherlock Holmes be cracked at sudoku or would it be like Benoir Blanc playing Among Us?

Went to check out the billionaire's social media network. Got hit with a misogyny joke from someone I didn't follow as my first post. Second post was a thread about how anyone protesting should either be shot or placed into labor camps. Third post was this interaction

I wonder if they'll make movies generations from now about the fictionalized hacker/programmer from 1990-2022 like the cowboy from 1870-1910

I like the firehose model of socials because occasionally I catch stray posts like this one and I'm like, yeah, this bird IS the chosen

i cant explain why but this bird is the chosen

Hearing cat purrs are good for the soul

Being a programmer right now is a very weird time. I often wonder these days if this is what it was like to know computing in 1996, or 1986, or 1976. There was a big cycle from 2008-2019ish where "software engineering" became FAANG-ified. "Learn to Code" etc. Are we just going back to "normal"?

The year is 2030. Advertisers are paying min wage to anyone who can stitch 30 individual frames of 2000-2010 (nostalgic for the target demographic) era memes into a single second with a gig app. One frame is a Tide logo, satisfying shareholders. All involved are actually bots. The Internet is dead.

I think it’s bad that the social internet has been reduced to short clips of the full version of things, and creatives will suffer even more because of this demand.

finishing a large batch of leftover French onion soup for lunch today. Wish I had more

With great effort today I have mustered the courage to believe in the grand future. My conviction is deep but my body is fickle. I find a good breakfast, coffee, and some meditation to bring out the good. Days where I neglect myself and those I care about, are the ones I feel the world is ending.

I do not like out of state owned data centers. I do not like how comfortably corrupt the system is becoming. I do not like political violence without a truly fair trial. I do not think it is beyond understanding why the desperate grow violent.

What the fuck is even going on on this website… ಠ_ಠ

When people argue about whether or not AI belongs in schools, it's very easy to forget how meaningful a good connection between student and teacher can be. I still remember my favorite teachers who inspired me. Can our students today say the same?

Unrelated to the post's content, but it saddens me that this thread is not actually very long, and yet we feel we must include conventions like "Pull up a seat" and "(cont)" because of an arbitrary character limit. One of the weaker parts of Bluesky's design, IMO. A separate post category maybe?

french onion soup is too powerful. what did the french do to discover this? was this a faustian bargain from Louis XVI?

When I was a teenager I bought a Team Edward shirt with Edward Snowden's face on it. I paid 6$. There is something particularly MAGA-esque to me about blending tech and politics but rather than whistleblowers, we place billionaires on merch.

maybe it's time to stop moving fast and breaking things. maybe we should move reasonably and improve things. without breaking things that should not be broken

Never been more proud to be a Hoosier than when I think about how the current White House is really upset they didn't get their way chopping up our state.

Found an account that is clearly fake and designed to ragebait normal people into...liking Trump, I guess? Literally no human on earth would believe this AI slop is real, and it looks like the fever dream of an aspiring conservative pundit to me. Can't wait for someone to claim it's "parody".

Man. There's just no in between. Either too cold for a jacket, or too hot for one. This sucks

I am growing more concerned that one day the open web will need to fight for its own existence, and the safety of all us, in the warmongering world currently ruled by the out of touch in antiquated fashion.

Have to go to work again today fuck my chud life

Living at the end of a golden age sure doesn't feel very golden.
