Thinking about creating a meme bot like my other project @thejokebot.bsky.social 🤔 Problem is memes are much harder to moderate safely… probably would need OCR, NSFW/gore/hate-symbol checks, text moderation, sentiment analysis, source filtering, language and copyright checks… May not be worth it
@appleinsider.com - tagging you guys because Apple ain’t here but surely this should be labelled as “Perfect” or “Flawless Victory” or “Monster Chill” or something higher stakes than “Very High”. There’s no higher man! What’s the next level? Coma? Hibernation? Death??
TJB Starter Pack just dropped! It includes some absolute legends like @docatcdi.com, @funnymichele.bsky.social, @drselvarajah.bsky.social, @mariana057.bsky.social and plenty more. The whole list is made up of those who've made me snort WD40 through my nose at least once. Check it out! #jokesky

Why is everything by Microsoft at least a bit shit in some way? Like basic missing features or poor user experience or plain broken? It’s been like this for decades.
Hey @asuswrt-merlin.net I would ask on the snb forum, but it looks like my account is disabled, but do you have any plans to support the TUF-BE6500 in Merlin any time soon? Just got one with the new internet and I forgot how inept the stock Asus firmware is 😅 Big fan of your work. Big thanks!
