First attempt #3dprinting with TPU. I don’t think it’s supposed to look like spiders made it, but it’s not terrible for a first try. Need to twiddle some settings

@lmorchard this is wild, but would be cooler if the author didn't resort to using ai generated sludge

 @lmorchard I am actually convinced this was intentional...(I encountered it signing up for Kofi...)  @lmorchard those tigers all look like someone has done tiger face painting on them at a children's party. Also, Catsby’s gained a bit of weight since the scare we had with him earlier in the year. The vet put him on budesonide as a steroid for IBS. A compounding pharmacy mixed it up with chicken flavoring for us and he very vocally demands it every night. So glad I don’t have to wrestle it into him, since it seems to have fully turned him around #cats Catsby and Cheddars have taken over my spot on the couch, so I need to go back to bed on #caturday I beg of you, web site designers, just let me scroll through a page and stop trying to make my scroll-wheel the hand-crank of your obnoxious hurdy-gurdy of a marketing presentation

  @lmorchard am stealing this phrase, despite the fact that I do enjoy the hurdy-gurdy on occasion ... :) My oven announced the arrival of a software update devoted to green beans and carrots. That’s when I reached for my revolver

@lmorchard Your bullet firmware will need to be updated before firing. Please do not load or unload your revolver during this process. Expected completion time 117h 39m 54.22186s   @lmorchard Just a short hop to "Your oven will now give you progressively larger electric shocks every time you touch it until you make both dishes. Brought to you by Del Monte!" Went to try to read a thing on "MIT Technology Review" and got intercepted by 3 different popup modals and a banner before I managed to scroll 1cm through the page. The title of the piece was "How to fix the internet" and I already closed the tab.

 @lmorchard opened up a site to download something in a new tab, finished what I was doing and opened the new tab to be greeted by a full page survey asking me if I had found what I was looking to download. Dunno, it might be behind your survey, might not. It was also *mandatory* that I fill in my details *if* I wanted to be contacted about my feedback. I was not polite "The whole point of ActivityPub as an open protocol is to turn Twitter/Instagram-like social networking into something more akin to email: truly open." The point of an open protocol is to help folks build what they want to build. Not an obligation to welcome everyone into their house. If I have a full beer keg and you have a tap that fits it, that doesn't necessarily mean you're invited to my barbecue. Holy crap, Nilay Patel just ruthlessly corners Substack’s CEO Chris Best on moderating racist content and I love it Like, you know, it is within the realm of human possibility to just not actively build a half-abandoned combination shopping mall / conference center that lets anyone wander in and use it as a venue for complete fuckery @ConsoleWitch @thomasfuchs but then how will i know this is the best computing platform for 360 noscope in hello kitty island adventure?

@lmorchard I need HTML. And JavaScript. Non-free. Heavily obfuscated. To pass fucking verification. And not gonna go through, I am already banned by Cloudflare anyway. @lmorchard This page could have been even better if browsers supported ANSI formatting sequences, but sadly, they don’t… @lmorchard Wonderful, esp. when switching back and forth with the source tab. 12
