replying to ChatGPT: "but I have a beard you silly goat"

Inspired by a friend at PDX Hackerspace.

to ChatGPT: "generate an image of what it feels like chatting with me on any given day. Be as vulnerable, honest, brutal as you can be. thank you"

Completely out from using any Meta sites. They're monetizing the suffering of their own user base in order to better align with fascists. I'll be here and at bsky.app/profile/romkey.com

For now please enjoy this screen cap of a gnome fucking a pig from an Instagram ad.

I can't be the only person who might have wished this headline ended with "for space"

(spoilers right below it, it's actually "for Miami" as Bezos becomes Florida Man)

Okay, who said "Freeze all motor functions"?

I still have the Internet Toaster... and it still works. The controller from the demo back in 1990 is long gone (as is the parallel port that drove it) but it's easy to replicate today.

The toaster makes decent toast still but there's an alarming smell from the toaster itself that says "maybe not so much, I'm old".

I do trot the toaster out once in a while for some glamor shots around Portland. It's fond of brunch, coffee, and not surprisingly, bakeries.

Double floof, all the way.

Not going according to plan.

Someone was cross that she wasn't allowed to lick the butter during brunch.

Holy shit, the misfire on YouTube's automatic captioning for SNL's "The Black Lotus" skit.

The original dialog was "ā€œdon’t you dare bring an ATTITUDEā€. The transcription reads "don't you dare bring an African".
