It is hard to admit ignorance, so when one of the new recruits to the Pangalactic Bureaucracy raised a tentacle with a question, Xtrrt let them ask.

"What is 'fafo quotient'?"

"A Human term. Fuckaroundment over Findoutability. We stay over 2.718. Humans..." Xtrrt paused. "... hope for over 1."

Am I dumb or is this upside down? This implies Pangalactic fucks around more and finds out less, while humans find out more than they fuck around. Which I am not sure is what has been happening.

I danced!!! In a dance competition!!! Oh gosh how did I even do that wow

My greatest hope is that those who watched were entertained for a couple minutes. 💙

Greetings fellow dwagon!
I sadly missed your performance and other times you were about though I enjoyed the con~
I also wish I got a photo of Azakir's face when we reconnected :3
Maybe next time I'll see you about too~
@B22_SSS aaaa I'm sorry I missed you too! I spent a lot of the con recovering in my room, I was really struggling for energy this time around, but hopefully our paths will cross soon!

During busy cons I like to find a quiet spot to relax for a bit and zone out while play some tunes, usually at like 2am when we're all a bit sideways 🍻 #fursuitfriday

When my brother and I were kids, my father once (early 90's or so) came home from work with a shirt pocket full of RAM sticks my brother had asked him to buy, and it was some pitifully small amount of MB that cost...$400 I think at the time? So it is both hilarious and depressing to see that history is now repeating itself...

Also dammit I should have done the "Buy fuckloads of SSD's in 2019 and rip all my CD's, then throw the oldest ones out" but I was all but I am le tired so I fired the missiles and didn't and now look where we are. OOPS.

Efficient programming making a comeback, maybe?

When I think of all the money that has been spent on "AI", how literally trillions of dollars have been spent on this grift that literally does nothing good for anyone and will be remembered as a great stain on humanity.

I think of how much good could have been done with all that money. how many people that don't have food could have been fed? How many homeless people could have been taken off the streets and given a home? How much work could funding like that have done for disease research?

Seriously, fuck these rich assholes. They're not even producing something that works, and they're making unfathomable amounts of money.

On a side note, I think seeing Adam Savage truly angry would be terrifying.
@zrowolf I think a cold rage would be even scarier, honestly… he is a man who could F people up if he really wanted to

Looking into getting an e-ink e-reader. I was considering a Kobo Clara, which has several features I like (repairability, and not being an Amazon product) but having checked how big 6" is as a screen size (B7, i.e. smaller than A6) I'm not so sure. I'm mostly expecting to sideload PDFs, so no reflowing, so I'm now wondering how big a screen I'm likely to need for typical books. I'm sure I know people here who have experience of such devices — any ideas?

I often use the kindle app on my phone for reading. which is probably around the B6 size.

I'd probably look at getting an old gen 1 kindle if they are still around/cheap. the one with the keyboard. As they can be de-amazoned IIRC. Even if not. You can drag and drop files over and use non amazon services to move/convert things.

I heard stories of people who've fed crows, and been given gifts in return. It sounded charming, so I began doing that.

Then, one night, there was a rapping on my bedroom window. I stumbled up and opened.

A crow flew in and spoke: "They're coming for you. You must flee."

I only just made it out.

Something similar happened to me. The crow was a gas station attendant with a rumor to share. I canceled the illegal thing.

( they really, really give you gifts. they sleep in front of your house to protect you. I can verify that by first hand experience. Also they want you to come hunting with them and they are really annoyed if you do not hunt with them. )

maybe we shouldn't base the idea of artificial consciousness on some test a dude invented in the 1950s while thinking about boys, he was probably distracted

even then I think he just set it as just one milestone that might show something promising, something that could be tested for, not the end all be all as proof of perfection

imagine if people treated the Bechdel Test with as much reverence (and ironically it actually being rarer to see pass)

and of course there's the idea that Turing's test says less about advancements in computing and more about the gullibility of the average human

Samar sits at his desk, surrounded by codes and study notes, doing the work that now fills his days. Every so often, he glances at his scrubs hanging on the wall, feeling a quiet sense of nostalgia.

He recently became a surgeon, but chose to spend this year studying biostatistics instead of returning to the hospital. It’s a different kind of focus now. But this is just a pause between his two paths

We make so many decisions in life and that may seem very stressing and overwhelming. I’ve learned that whichever path we choose becomes the right one, because there is always something waiting for us there.

And there is a full video of the process of this drawing awaiting for you to watch, at the first comment of this submission on my Telegram art channel: https://t.me/panda_paco

As you can see on that process, at first I thought it was going to be a portrait mode picture, but then I decided the composition was going to look better on landscape mode, but that change of decision made the video to be on landscape.

I'm also sharing a full version of that process video, as well as the full resolution, and many more exclusive things, at supporting my work subscribing at:

"No?"

"Or youth?"

"Er... No?"

"Is being royal or nobility a must?"

The dragon hesitated. "It's traditional..."

"We can mention that it's a position traditionally filled by a princess," the HR consultant said, "but we do welcome all applicants."

I am back from #Scotiacon! There were some kind of weird ups and downs for me this time but the highest point by far was performing in the dance competition. It went great and was a huge amount of fun, and I'm not sure I've ever met a more supportive and welcoming community than the Scotiacon dancers. I have zero experience with this sort of thing and was a real push outside my comfort zone, but everybody made it clear that I belonged there with them and it was an amazing experience that I'm really proud to have been able to do!

Ah okay. I was only there for Saturday as I just had a day ticket. So there was little chance me seeing everyone given how many people were there. :o
@SDF_of_BC yeah, it was really packed this year! Saturday I would've been off doing dance comp practice for a lot of it.

‘I’m finding it difficult to live up to my morals. How do I know when it’s OK to compromise?’

I strongly suspect there is a voice in most people’s brain asking this question most days.

What was your compromise today?

- waking up and doing a job that contributes little to society
- driving a car
- eating meat / produce with high airmiles
- realising most of your grocery shopping was wrapped in plastic
- bought new clothes made out of polyester

I’m not trying to make people feel guilty here…we all compromise sometimes.

Sometimes it’s our circumstances - family, finances, health that mean we can’t live up to the moral standard we believe in our hearts we should.

Sometimes we’re tired/lazy

Sometimes we look at our leaders and conclude ‘why am I even bothering?

It’s not unusual for agony aunts to say ‘don’t feel guilty’ - guilt is what keeps their inbox brimming and them in a job.

But doing and making are better uses of your time.

I have been trapped for ages. I grab a door handle; it breaks off. It's chocolate.

"Ahaha!" The mad chocolatier's laugh rasps from hidden speakers. "Everything here is made of chocolate!"

I stop. Everything? I focus on my fears... They manifest as chocolate monsters.

I eat them.
