Made some upgrades to my desk recently. New keyboard, with custom keycaps, new vertical ergo mouse with a sensor good enough for fps games. And I’m finally ditching my 1080p dual monitor setup for a single 1440p ultrawide tandem oled. I need a bigger desk, lol.

We just dropped a bombshell investigation into ChatGPT's role in the Tumbler Ridge mass shooting. Incredible reporting from @markfollman.bsky.social that will have far-reaching effects...hopefully: www.motherjones.com/media/2026/0...
ChatGPT helped the Tumbler Ridge school shooter focus on guns, tactics, and terror, our investigation reveals
OpenAI’s chatbot fed the shooter’s violent fantasies and planning up to the massacre.

“I’m not complicit, I was just following orders.”
Ed Sheeran has released a statement on Macklemore being removed from his tour for speaking up for Palestine:
“I am not complicit. […] Just because I choose not to speak publicly, it doesn't mean I don't have [my own opinions], and it doesn't mean I don't care.”

BC Parks charges campers a $6 “transaction fee,” $5 surcharge for using its call centre, and $6 fee for changes and cancellations. In 2023, it processed over 366,000 reservations—meaning reservation fees alone brought in more than $2.1 million. https://thewalrus.ca/the-ticketmaster-of-camping/

[P] I might suggest “the Muppets must put on a variety show with a different guest host each week. Various shenanigans happen both on stage and backstage.”
There are currently no active conversations for a full ‘MUPPET SHOW’ series revival.
Disney, The Muppets Studio and Point Grey Pictures have had difficulties with deciding on a premise for the series that they can all agree on.

Many folks were leery about this week's announcement of a Geoff Keighley-backed grant to support games industry workers, given how The Game Awards Future Class ended. I appreciate those who shared their thoughts with me; despite misgivings, folks hope things turn out better this time.
![But many people seized on Keighley’s participation, especially in light of his previous efforts to support games industry workers via The Game Awards Future Class, a program that began in 2020 and inducted its last class in 2023. In 2023, Future Class leadership and participants clashed over participants’ request that Keighley acknowledge Israel’s genocide in Gaza at that year's Awards, and subsequently over efforts by participants to improve the program’s offerings.
The experience has left some people leery of another Keighley-backed initiative. “A program like [Nova], with this much money going behind it, can’t hurt,” one Future Class participant, whom Aftermath is granting anonymity due to fear of career repercussions, told Aftermath. “I just hope the people in charge succeed with the ideas they’ve cultivated and subsequently get the flowers they deserve, because Keighley didn’t deserve the flowers he so eagerly picked up for his attempt at bettering the industry through Future Class.”
"I hope… recipients of this program receive what they are promised, rather than becoming a cheap bit of good press for Mr. Keighley,” said another Future Class participant, whom Aftermath is granting anonymity over career concerns.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:25ofi7urzd5uhgzdbq4gqybn/bafkreigq4qb643aik2xxsmh3cqtm546txij4fesvn3uvr7dhtvzyrd6vre)

Not joking: I think this is a legitimate form of living history for online games. It's like an old-timey pioneer town where people pretend to be blacksmiths. This is a more accurate way to experience what WOW was like 20 years ago than being in an empty server
customized my wow server to add ~100 bots to goldshire inn who will never leave and are programmed to argue about the xbox 360 vs ps3 nonstop

Five clay dogs buried under a palace doorway at Nineveh around 645 BC. Each one has its name written on its side in cuneiform.
Expeller of evil.
Catcher of the enemy.
Biter of his foe.
Loud is his bark.
Don't think, bite.
That last one is an instruction, written on the dog, addressed to the dog.
