If you haven't seen it yet (and the numbers say most of you haven't!) please give it a look and recommend it to soem friends! Or enemies! Whatever! Reposting would be great, too!

DnB songs are competing with each other on who can have the longest drum pause in their chorus, and I'm all here for it.

Each additional beat of pause makes me enjoy it even more.

For example, here's DNMO's "Together". Check out the section from 2:30 to 3:05, there's 3½ _bars_ of drum pause 😍

Reminds me of Donald Dark's "Sleeping in My Car" medley, where they're gradually increasing the pause between "in my" and "car" at the end of the song 😂

Donald Trump trying to confirm that he's still alive is the funniest thing happening today.
in reply to Peter Gleick

Someone should tell him that he will feel even better when he is dead.



We went out for Kyle's birthday and were able to sit outside, which was awesome. It was even warmer than inside (why so much AC?!?)

Happy early birthday @ksawatsky 💕

Failure to do so will have no effect on your Mastodon service. I just want to see photos of cats.

California lawmakers kill plans to curb AI-manipulated prices: calmatters.org/economy/technol…

> A secretive appropriations process killed or reined in three bills regulating the use of pricing algorithms. A bill to monitor data center electricity use was also culled.

A crackdown on predictive software that sets prices and can rip you off seemed to be brewing in the California Legislature earlier this year, but today lawmakers eased up, voting to kill bills that would have kept software from setting the price of apartment rentals and other goods and services. Another bill, which sought to bar the use of personal information to set prices, was reined in to apply only to grocery stores.

Lawmakers also killed a bill that aimed to protect electric utility customers from bearing higher costs associated with data center proliferation […] The measure would have required data centers to publicly disclose how much energy they use.



Some mists in the valley are cool. Others make you go into Forest Ranger mode and hop in the side-by-side to go check on the neighbour. This smoke was OK. Just burning some stuff, as currently permitted now that we've had some rain. All good, had a nice chat. #Photography #WhyIsThatOnFire #ForestRanger

stopping "sideloading" does nothing to keep users safe. there's plenty of malware, spyware, and other warez on both the Apple App Store and on Google Play that a user can install from a "trusted source". i trust the openly available source code of an application i am downloading from a GitHub page more than any "verification" process from Google or Apple. nothing will beat just having the instruction set openly available for all to see.

The image features a black background with white text centered in the middle. The text reads: "Trump goes half a weekend without committing an impeachable offense, and we all just assume he's dead." The font is bold and sans-serif, making the text easily readable against the dark background. The message is presented in a straightforward manner, with no additional images or graphics. The text is aligned to the center, and there is no other visual element present in the image.

in reply to This spaceship does not exist

The image features a humanoid figure with a robotic appearance, set against a solid orange background. The figure is wearing a blue helmet with intricate mechanical details, including a circular visor and a textured surface. The helmet's design suggests advanced technology, with visible seams and rivets. The figure's right hand is raised to its chin, showcasing a mechanical glove with articulated fingers and a wristband, indicating a blend of human and machine elements. The figure is draped in a flowing garment with a vibrant yellow and blue color scheme, adding a contrast to the metallic tones of the helmet and glove. The overall composition emphasizes the figure's robotic nature while incorporating elements of traditional attire.

I finished the first season of Lower Decks and I am not sure how I feel. I find the humour kind of not very funny most of the time, and while that was grading at first I now am familiar enough with the characters and like them enough in general that I can put it past me.

It's ridiculous sometimes and I am okay with that. I just wish it were funnier for me. I like comedy, it's that this kind of comedy really isn't my favourite. I'm happy that other people find it enjoyable in that way though.

in reply to Mike

@sunumbral I do not think I've run into Moody yet. I will keep my eyes open for Moopsy. I only just finished the first season.
