Looks almost like an album cover. Sharing the one with the filter only for now since I'll need to blur out the vin that's visible on the regular photo. Definitely appreciative of the chance to enjoy the remaining summer weather though. #photography #motorcycle #cscsg250

"Dont forget to inform your local tweakers that every flock camera contains 2 grams of gold and 2 lbs of copper" Random comment I ran across and feel worth sharing for no apparent reason 😉

Well I just unintentionally jumped the tracks on my motorcycle. I'm driving along a rural road at 55mph and thinking I'm seeing a hill until last minute realizing it's just really mounded up train tracks. Was way to close to slow down so just gambled on going full send while strait and stable as apposed to slower but less stable if I hit the breaks or let off the throttle. Figured I was about to put my airbag vest to good use but I stuck the landing. In all honesty, it was probably a rather pathetic jump to anybody who's done stunt riding, but it was certainly a bit of a surprise lol. #motorcycle

A new #blog post about decentralized protocols for archiving web pages and other content. Goes over #IPFS #blossom and #nostr

Borris looks really cool. Highlights seem to work, and there's not a lot of other Libre options to TTS a web page. Offline reading is also a nice touch. View quoted note → View quoted note →

#asknostr has anybody developed a Nostr based guestbook for static sites? It's something that I thought I might try to implement on my site, and while I could probably just vibe code it, it'd prob make more sense to use a human written implementation if one already exists.

What's up strangers and fellow Nostr enthusiasts? I'm really burnt out on my job. It's been a mess even since the interview process, and I'm not sure I'm even going to make it past Monday next week. I like the (theoretical) job description and the people there, but it's been a ride of shifting job descriptions, poor compensation, and missed/partial paychecks, and I think I've hit my limit. I'd do a tell all blog post, but lol, I think you guys would think I'm writing fiction at this point. This afternoon after moving metaphorical mountains to get a thing finished after the second week things were implied that'd get better and that didn't, I took an early lunch break and left all my work stuff on site on the mental insurance I could just leave and never come back. I told my boss this morning that things really need to change. Though I doubt they will, as somebody who's usually a people pleaser, my very much not people pleasing conversation is about as much as a fair warning as they're going to get before things either get fixed or I quit Monday morning. My previous more or less 'standard' job experience includes farm labor, a company that went bankrupt, and a company that was gutted by private equity. I've never both seen a company be so incompetent and never grown to despise a job like I have before now. The fact they're critical infrastructure is horrifying.

Cars Kinda Suck RN 3/3: Cars Themselves

In the month of April my car was in the shop three times. It was supposed to be one trip (O2 sensor, emissions, tires), but it wound up being divid...

A long and rambly complaint posts about the state of vehicles after I thought I'd need to purchase one. Be forwarned, it's my longest post yet (and that's even after breaking it into three different posts). I even broke Grammarly's word limit. #cars #tech #privacy #blog

GN Just fed some sloppy cell phone scans of my handwriting into Claude and I'm throughly impressed. I like handwriting things (especially fiction, where I can type faster than my brain can write making for a less enjoyable writing experience). But handwriting adds another step, going from draft > revise > share to draft > transcribe > revise > share. Had some decentish luck with other AIs, but they made enough mistakes that I found it better off manually transcribing than editing a mistake riddled document (mistakes by AI, the mistakes in my writing that the document is riddled with is what the revise process is for). But Claude was immaculate. Only a single mistake, mistaking a "D" for a "P". No other issues, and it even picked up on dashes and struck through content. This'll probably also be confusing for some staunchly anti-AI people lol. In one sense, I'm writing purely human fully analog literature on physical paper (albeit literature of meh quality). Then I might start turning around and giving it to an AI. While I'm there I might as well even have it proofread it with me. I might have just crossed cypherpunk and luddite.

GM Been nearly a month since I had to leave for work before 6, the sun wasn't up yet like it was last time. Definitely slowly making its way towards fall. Does make for a nice ride though, leaving just before the sun comes up and pulling into work during golden hour.

Expectation: Ride a metal beast powered by explosions and the earthly remains of ancient leviathans. Reality: #meme

@Brian Fagioli did you intentionally delete your post on the Fiat Topolino? I wanted to reference it and saw it was missing, there's an archived version but I don't want to share it if it was intentionally redacted.
