AI is going to solve the whole problem of when to put the bins out.

The Quarter Pounder is back. I’m just going to wait and see for a few more days just to be on the safe side.

34 degrees F this morning. In the moonlight, I can see frost covering the roofs across the street.

Tater tots deserve more respect.

I early voted today, so that’s out of the way. No line but a steady flow of people. A mix of old people and young mainly. A young person asked for instructions, first time ever voting. Everybody cheered.

How in the heck do you sprain (or maybe pinch a nerve) an ankle while sleeping in bed? It sure makes it hard to get around even here in the house. Bother.

Happy Free Web Search Day Lets keep internet search free and open.

Xtwitter is screwing around with the “Explore” function and they got it all messed up. Typical.

Nobody: What is your political affiliation?

Me: I’m pro cephalopod.

Seems like a lot of knife attacks are happening. Not just in Europe, UK but also China plus even in USA. Copycatism?

Junk in, junk out file. I think Facebook Bot is Meta’s bot for collecting stuff for their AI program. They have been hitting my blog here on Micro.blog pretty extensively over the last couple of weeks. I have no delusions that anything on my blog will ever make it into the hallowed halls of AI infoshit.

Should I tell them that I sometimes make things up that are untrue just for AI bots? Nah.

So Facebook Bot has been all over my blog. I think this is FB’s AI scraper bot. But I have a clever plan…

We are using up Earth’s gravity faster than it is being replaced. Peak gravity.

Did I get this right, cats are eating Republicans in Ohio?

Of course it would be in Ohio.

I got the current 2024 Covid shot. Pfizer. I think my 5G reception is better than ever before.

I also got the flu shot.

Sep 2024

After Sept. 10th, 2024 all cat pics on XTwitter will be moved behind a paywall.

At the risk of being politically incorrect, I prefer the Gothic arch over the Roman arch. Not that there is anything wrong with the Roman arch.

The McDonald’s arch is my least favorite.

I’m not sure Yahoo! Mail is even trying to filter spam anymore. Um, they could at least make a token effort. Gmail filters pretty good but won’t let you login until you clear cookies, provide bio-metric ID and show your official Sergey and Larry fan club card.

Someone is planning on putting a Taco Bell in my town. shrugs Frankly I’d rather have a Waffle House.

We’re having some fun now: banning words, burning books, raising prices, reducing size of goods, cutting quality, tacking on fees, telling lies, making shit up, paving everything and polluting so your kids have transparent skin.

And we are creating a new enshitification app, powered by AI, that will let you do all this from your phone for a monthly subscription fee of which Apple gets a 30% cut.

It’s true, I miss a lot of the old analog tech stuff, but I don’t miss 8-Track tapes. Just saying.

Seen and Heard on the Internets: Now that many websites are blocking AI bots using robots.txt, the AI companies are simply renaming their scraper bots to get around this and continue stealing content. I think we need an overhaul of robots.txt. One NOT created by Big Tech.

Does this JD Vance guy really wear eyeliner or is that something made up on the Internets?

Comcast “automated” help is worthless. Annoying and it has errors, lots of errors.
