@sjb @cwebber I suspect that ship has already sailed. >_< Surely the employees are already asking it to describe making weapons in haiku form, or how to commit crimes to help our their poor grandmother.

@cwebber Maybe the real laugh will be over in a few days when Ars retracts the story because it's AI slop after all? (sigh)

@cwebber Oh Santa Claus, if I'm really really *really* good this year for Christmas, will you leak access to this official/fake Zuckerberg AI to the general public? PLEASE?!

@rl_dane I used to have one for "gits tatus" that would pretend to be an error. Something about "What's tatus? Possible options are --mash-them --boil-them --stick-them-in=stew"

@wezm I still haven’t gotten around to trying to fix the old ones with the new ones. 🤔

@wezm I just replaced both of mine too. A “regular” one like that and a folding pocket one I keep in my RC toolbox. They had a 30 year run and died at basically the same time. O_o
Ironically when the first one didn’t work I went and grabbed the other to try and troubleshoot it. (Sad trombone)

@sinbad There are a bunch of local folks here in Minnesota that worked on that. I didn't know that Brock did specifically, but I wouldn't be surprised at all. :)

I worked with this artist for the Global Game Jam this year. He did the fake cartridge art for this for example: https://www.slembcke.net/nes/TrashBandits/
This is his portfolio: https://brockbrown.art/category/portfolio/ I could look up some Steam Games he did store art for if you want.

New Unity fees! https://mobilegamer.biz/unity-risks-fresh-backlash-with-new-fee-demands-this-feels-like-blackmail/
Enterprise fees this time which... is not my problem exactly*, but why would anyone be under the illusion that they aren't going to do it to regular folks next? lol
* actually I no longer have any Unity license, completely not my problem. \o/
(edit: We actually got caught up in a similar change a year ago. I have a blog post that talks about it -> https://www.slembcke.net/blog/UnityVsCustomers/ )

I borrowed @jolexxa@mastodon.online’s dogs for a few days and Tigger is surprisingly ok with our guests. He even jumped up on that chair of his own volition to hang out!
He’s possibly the most chill cat I’ve ever met, but in the past he’s gone full on feral around other cats. (Foaming at the mouth and everything…)
20 year old Tigger around miniature poodles though? Eh… can’t be bothered. >_<
