@osmosisch@idlethumbs.social @jwz@mastodon.social this one is so funny to me, but not because of the content of the joke. I can't believe we're sitting here thousands of years later trying to understand it. This could be their best joke, or their worst one, or not even a joke at all, and we have no way of knowing, so our top scientists are debating why it's supposed to be funny, or if it even is. The person who wrote it down would probably think that was so strange. I hope someone prints out this post and an archaeologist finds it 4000 years from now and cannot figure out what we're talking about.

@sigkill@mastodon.social @b0rk@social.jvns.ca @ripienaar@devco.social yeah, easy to verify and/or low stakes are the cases where I’m finding it works to apply it, which I’m unfortunately being required to do as well. That’s sort of where I’m expecting we’ll settle out in 5 years once the hype drops off. It’ll be useful for some things, not others, we’ll figure it out. In the mean time, if you still want to search for web pages like a normal person, Kagi is great, cannot recommend enough

@Colin @jeder @vozercozer they route it through a referral link to get a cut of the ads. Browser hijackers are pretty common believe it or not

@igorkulman where do they still teach Pascal as a first language? I wasn’t aware it was being used hardly at all outside of Delphi, since at least the 1990s

@lockelyfox I’ve only just now learned it exists, and I’m sorry, but you should know that I’m jealous you ever had it

@futurebird I see…well….how about going into the ant content business? My cat would be a very loyal customer

@futurebird is this a show about ants? Or just show and tell with some ants in person? I’m in dire need of long-form video just showing ants in their colony doing their thing for hours at a time. My cat demands this and I can’t find much of it.

@galacticstone@mastodon.social @GroupNebula563@mastodon.social sources say probably AI generated. But still…I’m not that mad…

@mattblaze@federate.social neither, apparently, have the entire staff of US attorneys of the SDNY https://www.politico.com/news/2026/01/22/epstein-files-release-review-00739987

@infobeautiful@vis.social my cat absolutely loves my laser printer. She demands that I print more. So I only have half of these problems.
