I just fed the Atari ST Turbo Cup disk image into Claude. I love this game, but the slow framerate annoys me. Claude adapted the game to use STE DMA sound and blitter, and optimised a load of 68k code, resulting in an overall 45%(ish) speed increase. Mind officially blown. 🤯

macklemore is a perfect example of why one must separate the art from the artist. but for the opposite reason people usually mean

Just learned about Ken Isaacs' "Superchair" (1967). Built-in book rest, shelves, lamp, drink tray, and a seat back that folds into a bed. A place for "inventive work and the individual search for peace of mind", as he put it. It was meant for people to build it themselves, hence the almost unfinished look. Blueprints were published in Popular Science in 1968.

Elon Musk, you pretentious bald fuck with a micro-penis and god complex—you blew $44B on X to stroke your fragile ego after endless ratioings. Your Teslas are flaming deathtraps, SpaceX rockets are pricey fireworks, Neuralink fries brains, and your Mars fantasy is cult bait. You breed kids like a stray dog but can't hold a wife 'cause you're a narcissistic shithead. Suck a bag of dicks and fuck off to your red planet.

I had no idea that later models of the PS1 improved on color banding and shading. Now I want to play games with an early and later model to see if I can spot differences

This is one of those days when you feel the contradictions tangibly heightening. Think of the sheer amount of resources mobilised to arrest and process this many peaceful protestors. The police aren't here to protect us, they're here to protect elites *from* us.
