The car has its yearly check-up today. Here are my collected thoughts about this:
I hate going to the car repair shop. All they tell me is what’s wrong with the car and not what a good boy it is!
Car mechanics are checking the car for flaws, and flaws only. They do this because they only have the best in mind for me and want me to be safe. Big Dad Energy! Institutions of the Patriarchy.
I feel extremely dumb and 8 years old when I’m there.
Student aus Indien nutzt KI, um Emily Hart zu erschaffen. Bei "Instagram" postete der Account wohlwollende Sprüche zu #MAGA und halbnackten Content. Die Followerzahlen gingen durch die Decke und der Student verdiente sich ein wenig Geld nebenbei.
Sein Kommentar:
“The MAGA crowd is made up of dumb people—like, super dumb people. And they fall for it,” Sam said.
Back in 1992 or so there was a cat that would hang around the Fang Gang House in Madison and I called the cat "Claude" (because it's like "Clawed") and Milt call the cat "Mr. Roarke" but I thought that was a dumb name so I made a trading card for the cat with the name "Claude" on it.
I'll never name anything Claude (or "Clawed") again.

Your reminder that 6 years ago today, at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, Trump was so dumb, he asked if disinfectant could be injected into the body to “knock it out.”

It’s impressive how eager open source projects are to fall in line to use dehumanizing technologies and to please fascists.
If this continues unabated I give personal computing maybe another 15 years and then they’ll make devices that aren’t dumb terminals to some cloud service illegal.

What Fabio said…
(If you see the antisemitic Zionist meme accounts Fabio is talking about – yes, they’re about as antisemitic as you can get as they conflate being Jewish with supporting Israel and the genocide of the Palestinian people – please report them for antisemitism. Good rule of thumb to remember: Zionism is – and always has been – antisemitic. Let’s make sure we implement a zero tolerance policy on the fediverse for genocide deniers and antisemitic Zionists.)
This Trump message clearly illustrates how dumb he is and that any strategy is missing, he is just making things up along the way, also his claim that Iran is 100% defeated is contradicted in the same sentence...

I've always practiced defensive coding in my software engineering career. Lots of tests, belt-and-suspenders safety in the code to prevent weird, dumb things. This approach is paying off in spades using AI to program. I'm used to building a safety net.
I don’t like dumb drivers, but the kind of dumb driver that I dislike the least is the kind that pulls halfway into a pedestrian crosswalk, notices me staring at them, and then back up after the light has turned green.

Also, honestly? Dumb models are easier to understand and less likely to try to escape the box while solving problems.

#DeadLazyweb: Is anyone aware of a "no AI" marketplace or something? I just had to go through a hidden menu to disable "AI" on my dryer because it's not possible to buy a dryer without wifi and "AI" features (whatever the ambiguous fuck they mean by AI). I want dumb thing.
I don't want a "smart tv," I want an OLED that exposes HDMI and nothing smarter. I don't want a smart dryer. Thanks, I have enough attack surface in my house and I don't want to fight with a machine to make it just dry my laundry. Honestly, I don't even really want a smart phone anymore, but you can't really make Signal work on a Nokia brick.
If such a thing doesn't exist, I'd consider working on it but I don't want to re-invent a wheel if one already exists.
A brave new world will last two hundred years and fifty more, before a man dressed in blue and ridiculously long red neckwear makes that world too dumb to even bother visiting.

I gave a talk recently to some legislators. It dealt with the history of politics and trade in the region we were in. While some of what I presented was fairly obscure, most of it could be dug up by anyone with a library card and a few days to kill. But it all seemed to come as a revelation to my audience.
As a rule, our elected leaders aren't dumb - some are very smart. But we do ourselves a disservice when we imagine they know what we know. They might not - we may need to explain…

So the new #Kreutz #comet #MAPS is *still* following the constant rapid rise in brightness it has shown since discovery: a dumb extrapolation - https://cobs.si/analysis/?comet=2688&from_date=2026-01-15 00:00&to_date=2026-04-30 00:00&observation_type=V&observation_type=C&plot_x_value=1&plot_y_value=1&fit_option=1&exclude_faint=on&exclude_issue=on&observer=&association=&country=&compare_values=compare - has it get 10,000-times brighter than the Sun at its extremely close perihelion which makes so sense at all, of course, physically.
"It must therefore be assumed that this increase in activity will level off significantly in the near future," writes https://fg-kometen.vdsastro.de/koj_2026/c2026a1/26a1eaus.htm: "More likely are parameters m m0=12.0 mag / n=4 (or even lower), which would still result in a (very short-term) maximum brightness of about –9 mag (but this would probably still be significantly too bright) – always assuming that the comet survives its perihelion passage unscathed."
For other views see http://www.cbat.eps.harvard.edu/iau/cbet/005600/CBET005663.txt and https://arxiv.org/abs/2602.17626 and https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=10236580364221799 and https://cometografia.es/cometa-kreutz-2026-a1-maps-analisis/ - and the actual brightness is tracked at https://cobs.si/obs_list?id=2688 where it has reached ~11.5 mag. now.
Police, jail, and banning stuff seem to be this board's/mayor's only "solutions" to the public health crisis of addiction, and not, for example, voluntary treatment: we still lack enough treatment facilities to accommodate every San Franciscan who comes in ready and wanting help to kick their habit.
This policy is particularly dumb because of its obvious harm to nightlife. People want to be able to buy snacks when they leave the club.

This is why a Mayor has to just fucking build it, rather than holding endless public outreach (and scarring city employees in the process, who are then less likely to take bold action because they're scared of getting yelled at).
It's also why when people are like, "but you can't blame people for climate change, that's Big Oil propaganda!", it's ultimately both. Oil companies have the deep pockets, but individuals have the passion to fight for their dumb p…
