hi please hate this article headline with me

Terminals are an invisible technology to most

what a fucking sentence

…that are hyper present in the everyday life of many in the tech industry.

hyper? like this?

But the terminal itself is boring, the real impact of Ghostty is going to be in libghostty and making all of this completely available for many use cases. My hope is that through building a broadly adopted shared underlayer of terminals around the industry we can do some really interesting things.

oh good so the rentier bridgetroll wants to do just a monopoly play? that’s fine I’m sure. note: I don’t think there’s a more charitable reading of this. those shared underlayers already exist, in the form of decades of protocol and other development. many of them suck and I agree about trying to do better, but I (rather strongly) suspect hashi and I have very different ideas of what that looks like

I’ve already addressed the belittling of the project I really find useful and care about. So let’s just move on to the financial class.

Regardless of my financial ability to support this project, any project that financially survives (for or non-profit) at the whims of a single donor is an unhealthy project

“uwu, think of the poor projects. yes sure I could throw $20m at this in some kind of funny trust and have it live forever but that wouldn’t allow me to evade the point so much!”

I paid a 9-figure tax bill and also donated over 5% of my other stuff to charity this year

“I’m not as bad as the other billionaires I promise”

second person today I saw mentioning wezterm, guess I should look sometime for familiarity

right? like, is felon finally getting competition for unhinged billionaire gamerposting?

I took psychic damage by scrolling up and seeing promptsimon posting a real doozie:

I have been enjoying hitting refresh on https://fuckthisurl/froztbyte-scrubbed-it-intentionally throughout today and watching the number grow - it’s nice to see a clear example of people donating to a new non-profit open source project.

“oooh! look at the vanity project go! weeeee, isn’t having a famous face attached to it fun?” with exactly no reflection on the fucking daunting state of open source funding in multiple other domains and projects

saw it via jonny who did do some notes

oh I just saw this is almost a month old! still funny tho

(and I’ve been busy af afkspace)

there’s some more cursor fun too. no sneers yet, I’ve barely started reading

saw this elsewhere. the account itself appears to be a luckey stan account, but the next

There’s more crust than air or sea or land… so a vehicle that moves through the crust of the earth is going to be a huge deal

I have built working prototypes of this

so are we talking mining, or The Core (2003)? it feels like he’s trying to pitch it as though it’s Tiberian Sun style subterrean APC, but I can’t be sure whether I’m reading into it

yeah as I posted on mastodong.soc, it continues to make me boggle that people think these fucking ridiculous autoplag liarsynth machines are any good

but it is very fucking funny to watch them FAFO

that being a hung banner (rather than wall-mount or so) borders on being a tacit acknowledgement that they know their shit is unpopular and would get vandalised in a fucking second if it were easy (or easier!) to get to

even then, I suspect that banner will not stay unscathed for long

(e, cw: genocide and culturally-targeted hate by the felon bot)

world’s most divorced man continues outperforming black holes at sucking

404 also recently did a piece on his ego-maintenance society-destroying vainglory projects

imagine what it’s like in his head. era-defining levels of vacuous.

re your edit: it hasn’t changed because those words are just a front, a way to try save face as they get caught out with their bullshit. both of them have a choice, and have had a choice this whole time. they keep choosing to be where they are, what they say

thematic!

this post is more accurate than most

I dont know much about dosage numbers etc, care to mention a bit more how much is normal and how much he is off the baseline?

“normal” is a bit of a fucked term when dealing with this stuff, in part because we really don’t have good human-wide data (hi can you see what ghoulfuck is playing off of?). why don’t we have that? oh y’know that entire little multidecade war on drugs things perpetetrated by the selfsame government that is…[…breathe]

that said, psychonautwiki is a more informative starting point than I could concisely be. that also said, part of the fucky bit is that you get different strains of shrooms, with different effective concentrations of psychoactive compounds (eg psilocybin cubensis vs psilocybin cyanescens)

beyond that, I don’t really think that awful is a place for psychedelic discussion (and I wouldn’t try to make it one). there are often conversations to be had, but here ain’t the where

I don’t think sex workers should be tasked with society offloading glinner

glinner should fucking suck less
