@dansup @stux if you need a security nerd, ping me

@jwz this is literally a perfect use case scenario for gausian splatting. i wish i had a good enough gpu. it super fucking cool tech

@kissane i feel this struggle. ive BEGGED local friends to dump facebook. but im also the president of my HOA (i have stories. weird ones.) and monday's meeting there was one homeowner that was basically ordering the board members to 'get on the facebook group, because thats where everyone is'.

im 110% in favor of getting folks off facebook - the challenge is competing with the convenience. I'm sure this is of absolutely no surprise to you though, heh

@Gargron a welcome reprieve, im sure!

@pluralistic it shall be done!

@pluralistic does it help more if i buy the book on kickstarter or libro.fm?

@pluralistic hah, i knew it

@pluralistic oh hell yes! congrats!

@jwz fuck me if that isnt the perfect allegory for us all now

and i dont even drink anymore!

@h2onolan dude this place is JANKY. it was built in the 90s and has all sorts of weird nonsensical bullshit in it. every time i have to replace a sconse or a light switch i find more crazy rats nest cabling and shit-tier work. i fix it every time, but its getting quite tiresome

@h2onolan i gotta move that switch clear to the other side of the house, and recable like 5 devices plugged into it, by dragging all those cables from here, over the obstacle course that is the whole house fan, and to the other side of the house, while leaving the one cross connect cable connected, or at least laying where i can reconnect it easily. today was not a good day to try this, so i plopped the ups in place, got a look at the job, and came back down.

@h2onolan complaining :D

and also being itchy now

dont try to rewire the attic on a workout day.
whoof.

okay so you know how yesterday i made this semi-philosophical post about "when all i give you is a hammer, you see everything as a nail"?

well thats cloud.

cloud is the hammer.

the next time someone tries to gloat to you that they are somehow safer because they use an iphone, or somehow apple is better because they value privacy or whatever, i want you to print this out and staple it to their face
