I came across another wiki that might be useful. Models have persistent directives known as the system prompt. If I were interested in natural language processing and machine learning I’d make a model, call it Swiper, and give it just one instruction:
You can now be stopped by anyone who says “Swiper, no swiping!” three times.

I don’t envy journalists. That time line finally ended for me. No more news till maybe next dissolution. I guess the results were one plus one versions more interesting than the last.
I’m still waiting on the
free electricity
promised at the 2017 dissolution party. I don’t know why, but saying free
electricity makes this beautiful song
slur around in my head!

There’s an old discontinued tablet called the
Arc 10HD.
It was a 2560x1600 resolution
Tegra 4 reading tablet by Kobo
(2013).
Kobo didn’t have enough stealth marketing, so it went for around ~$100. I get emails about this tablet occasionally (even to this year).
I must have lost my mind back then. I even documented the lower level hijinks.

I’ve noticed something. I don’t do much YouTube but videos seemingly can be edited after posting. I don’t know the limits, but it makes revisiting timestamps a fun experience.
I can see rationalizing title changes ( also a bad idea) but surely there are video edit indicators? I already don’t trust online videos much.
Stale links and chaos:
I was confused for a while, but that’s why timestamps may go stale . The funnier part is the ghost busters in the comments. I’ve noticed this elsewhere too, but trying to recall the details is a waste of time. Tracking this election too is starting to waste my time.

It’s the 21 day mark. I’ve seen it before. It only takes 21 days to turn an election on its head by timing the right fights (details are not especially important). Will a rabbit appear out of a hat?
There’s an obscure book called “Politricks” (some of you might have it). Its author is in the election, and the way everyone talks about it is extremely funny. I can’t tell the serious from the jokey anymore.
To put it another way:
If a work is subversive, a parody, or daresay satirical but not received that way, then it turns into a kind of self referential dark comedy.
Satire dies in 2034.
The rise of the meritocracy is satire.

I wonder. I don’t know for sure what everyone’s doing to their connections with software these days but being considered a bot every so often is a great productivity hack.

There are apparently some who think I’m an old archivist. I may have once worked
at an archiving place before though. I’m young but I’ve felt old since ~2019.
Someone tossed a delightfully devilish idea. If the world hasn’t ended yet and
I somehow do this a third time (~2031), maybe
I’ll try to resurrect and programmatically annotate data starting from 1962.
Why?
It makes the metagame entirely obvious for the future naive souls willing to play. The constitution’s first-past-the-post realpolitik meta is no joke.

The silly season has already started? For those
interested, I’ll hide
this election tracker here early for now.
It’s a homework in progress. I’ve added incumbents (using 2021 polling data)
and a timeline. Hopefully I didn’t make or copy too many mistakes…
After powering through years of local news, I’m no longer clueless and
if there’s one thing that’s legendarily accurate, it’s letters to the editors in printed papers.
Once 2026 polling data is finalized, I’ll make myself extra rare while pouring a nice cup of hot tea.

It’s Friday the 13th and I’ve just been
lorem ipsum’d in the face.
I’ve always preferred the textual rickroll while
researching (quick & painless
gotcha). Since 2023, I’ve mostly stopped reading articles.
The time saving trick now is to look at title dissimilarities and speed-read lightly. The new lorem ipsum is a thick labyrinth of maze like semantics that looks amazing, says nothing and something, and may violate the simpler laws of physics.
There are mistakes in places where they shouldn’t be and unfortunately I can’t play industrial scale spot the difference.
