part of me has a knee-jerk reaction seeing this kind of topic in the new yorker of like "oh god is 'slowing down' going to be the next commoditized lifestyle after 'mindfulness?'" but still this is pretty good

i never heard of this game before and wow it looks bad lol. two lackluster tables??

the kublai khan of posting strikes again

hi

well you took down one of the most prosperous chinese dynasties and replaced it with a more oppressive one. then you followed that up with several failed campaigns in southeast asia. so i'd say yes

i did a grillout yesterday and didn't watch any football lol

this is interesting but i wish i could make heads or tails of what the original paper was even about lol

i mean it's probably possible but sadly far beyond my web programming capabilities which are pretty minimal. i didn't make postmill in the first place emma did

i figure it might only be for thumbnails but i guess we'll find out when we find out

god lol

hello. how do i end capitalism forever and create a new society based on love rather than exploitation?

because it's decentralized mastodon is odd because there's a lot more "pockets" and some pockets do twitter sharing and some don't. i see barely any twitter screenshots in my neck of the woods. it all depends on what instance you're on and what instances that instance federates or chooses not to federate with.

if you're on a large instance, especially the dumpster fire that is mastodon.social you may benefit from moving to a smaller one if you've seen enough posts coming from one that's nice. octodon.social is a pretty chill generalist instance for example.

and yeah most people who are just there to talk and make friends have quite a distaste for the "explore" tab because like... it's designed to show you the fire hose of shit.

oh yeah good point lol

wait do you mean reddit? like i figure reddit is a ghost town by now lol

that rules

actually it ended up that i have to do barely work on this thing at all

the company is extremely bullish right now on automation as a cost saving measure so unless it's something directly unethical i don't think i have much room to call it out. also yeah we're not hosting our own models it would be through chatgpt lol

best case i can say "i don't know if this will work very well" and do whatever they ask. best best case is i'm only tangentially doing something to enable another team's integration.
