A Ukrainian MiG-29 pilot had no ammunition left, so jet wash it is. They flew dangerously close to a Russian Shahed drone, used the jet’s thurst to destabilize it and send the drone to the ground. Eat wake drone.

Moving as metaphor
A few weeks ago, I and several others helped some friends of ours pack up their apartment into a truck in preparation for moving cross-country from Chicago to New York. It was, as such moments generally are, bitter sweet. It's always a good feeling to help out a friend, but when you're helping them get further away from you it's not as pleasant. Of course, me being me, what struck me most about the whole process was how well it served as a model for software development and project managemen…

That feeling when you’ve got twice the number of followers on the fediverse as the closed-source VC-funded European social network being peddled by the EU Commission has accounts.
Hey, @…, y’all are so incompetent you can’t even do evil right.

[1 media attachment] Good morning Fedi friends. Is anybody curious about how the #WSocial experiment is going? You know, the private, for profit "European answer to X" endorsed by the European Commission, which is a fork of Bluesky and has quietly gone closed-source before its beta launch (à la #TruthSocial)? I've got numbers for you! Nearly two months in, W Social has almost the same number of accounts as #Eurosky... You know, the European fork of Bluesky that does NOT require government …

NIGHTBORNE is the first full test AI film I have made. It was made using Seedance 2.0. I've been experimenting with AI for a couple of years, and it's now at the point where I want to tackle a full feature in this format. This is a 13-minute test start. It was made with real concept artists, and features the faces and voices of 32 real people. Barley Studios will be my new AI studio for creating my own films, the way Oats Studios was for traditional film and VFX. @Barleystudiosai Full film…
