Doing some reading of late 90s early 2000s articles about information freedom to write about LLMs and found an absolute barn burner of an article about intellectual "property" and copyrighting numbers from 1994 by a free software lawyer. Of course since then he was outed for abuse and queerphobia

since oscilloscope graphics are doing the rounds again, here's some photos from that time a few years ago when I built a gizmo to show dril tweets (and assorted other nonsense) on my ancient Tek 466
I don't necessarily disagree but also bluesky can't really throw stones here
One of the problems with people who spend too much time on X is that they lose all ability to do basic reading comprehension
I still dream of fully automated luxury gay space communism. When did we all stop sharing such a beautiful dream?
My contention that the displacement of trip hop by nu metal in the US at the turn of the Millennium facilitated the cultural nihilism that gave rise to Trumpism doesn't look so crazy now.

My friend and I played this for the first time on one of those retro anthology collections for PS2 in the mid 2000s and we played hours of it. A genuinely fun game

This is pretty expected after she got on the data center shit.
There is pervasive corruption across our healthcare and agricultural systems that defy party lines. I meet with MAHA activists because a lot of their concerns are bipartisan issues that major corporations paint as partisan. The fight isn't left and right, it's top and bottom.

"The Trump administration wants airport screening to revert to the way it was before 9/11" You mean, sane? Not full of pointless security theater that's accomplished nothing?? I'm guessing there's probably some actual downside, but leading with fearmongering about the only sane idea is... a choice
The Trump administration is following through on a Project 2025 plank by allowing private contractors to run security next year at airports in Charleston, SC; Des Moines, IA; and Tampa, FL. @whitneycwimbish.bsky.social reports: prospect.org/2026/08/03/t...
this is not true. there was no conspiracy. it didn't matter whether the streetcars were publicly owned (seattle, detroit) or private (los angeles, atlanta). a thread (because i wrote a whole-ass book on this): 1/?
Is everyone aware of the General Motors streetcar conspiracy? In the mid-20th century, auto and oil interests bought up electric streetcar systems across the US and systematically replaced them with bus routes and paved roads, funneling commuters toward private cars.

No they couldn't. People unironically get madder about housing than data centers.
It's all about priorities. The tech bros gave politicians a lot of money.
Nephew, New Jersey 2026 Benson “Instant Box Camera”, Optar 135 4.7, Ra-4 reversal First ra-4 reversal in several years. I’ve reaaaally wanted to shoot these in the instant box cam. Didn’t get the color balance quite 100, but close. #ShittyCameraChallenge #InstantBoxCam #AfghanBoxCamera
Having a great time nerding out and shooting “instant” photos with @isaacblomqvist.bsky.social for the #ShittyCameraChallenge I think the #InstantBoxCam qualifies 3 ways despite being “LF”!: 1. The ur “instant” cam 2. Dead format: (RPPC/plates/ftypes) 3. Crazy hard to use/insane process = 💩🎞️ 😅😅🤷♂️
