Yes, Tim. Like when you gave a literal golden trophy to a guy who doesn't even know your name.

Is it fair to say that the US treats the ultra-wealthy like royalty?
No. The UK has actual, literal royalty, and even they face more accountability than billionaires do in the US.

2 days ago, I had a shelf (and the contents of it, which included literal ROCKS due to a kids' "rock painting kit") fall on me. It left a nice bloody cut right next to my eye, and I haven't repaired the shelf yet because I'm petty enough to hold grudges against inanimate fuckin' objects.

As the AI Impact Summit in New Delhi draws attention, a look at India's AI opportunities and the political economy gridlock that threatens its ambitions (Shruti Rajagopalan/Get Down and Shruti)

India’s AI Wedding Buffet: Generous Portions, Political Economy Heartburn
India's AI Summit promises a revolution. The electricity grid, the tax code, and the literal ground beneath the chip fab have other plans.

A quine is a computer program that prints its own source code. Such a program exists in any sufficiently powerful programming language by Roger's fixed point theorem.
A quine cannot contain all of its source code as a string which it then prints. One needs a trick.
One trick is to decompose the program into 3 parts. P, a Preamble, S.quote, a tail-string S of the program quoted in the programming language, and then the literal tail string S.
The program is P S.quote S

I despise ad-filled barely-functional youtube downloader websites (and we don't talk about the literal malware or paid software).
Learning how to use yt-dlp from the command line has literally changed my life.

_Rhythm_ is a way of trusting the future.
This sounds poetic, but is also quite literal!
To entrain is to assume: something will happen again; it will happen around about when expected; it is safe to commit energy in advance.
It is a minimal form of trust.
Despair is characterised, in part, by a breakdown of such trust. The future becomes either threatening or blank.
Rhythm gently reinstates futurity.
A pulse says: you can lean forward; time will catch you…

America’s war on Iran began with what was meant to be an intimidating performance of overwhelming air power.
Quickly it became another kind of conflict, with low-cost missiles and drones effectively neutralizing a superpower by punishing its allies and paralyzing energy flows.
By the time Trump tried to threaten Iran into reopening the Strait of Hormuz with a 48-hour ultimatum,
it was clear not just that the strait had become America’s singular strategic fixation but that…

The Iran War Is Revealing the Messy Middle of Our Renewable Energy Transition
When the world map of literal power changes, the political hierarchy shifts, too.

Also I'm fucking angry that the test said it would take 2 minutes, when it took me 12!

Undertow, which I had never heard in full, although I did know several songs, ends with long minutes of literal crickets. 😂

Our world is run by monsters. Like, literal monsters.
I've seen plenty of films and books where the "monster" might harm or destroy only a handful of humans before being vanquished, and yet, our governments have killed how many?
The people in charge have done damage to our world we cannot reverse.
The real monsters live among us, not in stories or fantasy.
How do we end these monsters?

Worked with an #acting #coaching client on material without using the words, and found a connectivity through the scene we hadn't had before. So cool to see intentions separate from literal meanings coloring and shaping things.

every once in awhile I stop for a moment and marvel at the state of journalism that we have to spend so much time convincing them to leave platforms run by literal nazis that actively block their content in the first place.

I still am so profoundly frustrated that we have literal concentration camps again, and our politicians ain't doing shit.

RE: https://hachyderm.io/@thomasfuchs/116368936763096134
Tangent, I really prefer the German term “Informatik” over computer science; however it comes with the baggage that it was coined by a literal Nazi war criminal.

I've finally finished VALIS, took months when it shoulda taken a week cuz of getting caught in the suicidal era. Free to read something else!! Now I'm tryna decide what to read next:
• Leonora Carrington's usually my all time fav painter, and I've already read some of her stories in my collection, but not all
• I've been intending to get into Umberto Eco for literal years, have had multiple friends recommend The Name of The Rose, liked the part I read of the I…

Is there a way in mastodon or activitypub in general to use a hash character as a literal and *not* make the following word a hashtag (e.g. when posting about C/C preprocessor directives I don't necessarily intend for my post to be hashtag ifdef)

Deploying and prompting #Claude by #Anthropic means ripping apart literal books. Strange, strange world

Iran fires long-range missiles for first time, strikes Israel near Dimona reactor and injures nearly 200
Iran said the strikes near Israel's nuclear site were retaliation for a US-Israeli attack on its Natanz enrichment facility earlier Saturday.

The US right wing in 2025: The left's hateful rhetoric is getting people killed.

Precedented, but not the same:
If ICE and CBP are basically the reincarnation of the KKK, it’s the KKK with a budget the size of Russia’s entire military.
Literally. In the literal sense of “literally.” The incoming ICE CBP budget is ~$140 billion.[1] Russia’s military budget is ~$145 billion.[2]
(If I’m misreading these numbers, please correct me.)

Haven't changed my profile pic in literal years probably lol

Watching a recently-made movie in which an AI character has extensive language capabilities, but treats very common idioms as literal statements. Thought they'd have retired that by now.

Well let's find out what literal choreography to a song called "Fantasy" turns out to be. #TOTP

Anyone with an objective bone in their body could see that the Ostrich ‘issue' was a conjob and a grift. But CBC went for the literal receipts.
"Angela Rasmussen, an avian flu virologist at the University of Saskatchewan, reviewed journalists' findings and dismissed claims the farm was engaged in any groundbreaking research.
"I think calling it scientific work is quite generous," she told fifth estate co-host Mark Kelley. "I call it a scam.””
