@ShoahUkraine The pathetic death cult of fascism on full display.

How they managed to put up with that gauleiter's blathering is beyond me.

Fisher Body / Fleetwood

In the Detroit Historical Society's Collections Resource Center (over at Fort Wayne, not too far from there), they have an experimental Cadillac station wagon that the guys there produced to try and show GM leadership their skill and that they could change with the times...the suits shut the place down anyways.

I’m friends with a couple of Amish folks and have shown them LLMs, 3D printing, and have helped them set up websites and phone systems for their businesses.

The younger generation is fascinated with this stuff. They ask a ton of questions. I think their way of life is going to change drastically in the next 20-30 years once they take over from their boomers.

@ShoahUkraine Not sure if you’ve done one before on Vlasov’s army or the psychos in RONA.

@OzmunC Really happy to listen to some Foster!

@bobwojnowski Getting some food on the way to somewhere. They charter buses all the time for family events and group vacations.

Something always seemed *really* manufactured about his political career, over and above the normal level of fake.

Remember thinking that the guy must have some really powerful interests backing him, even way back when he was the mayor of Braddock and they did the documentary, the Levi's ads, and all the PR.

@ShoahUkraine It's remarkable that not only did the Soviets not take the same attitude a few years later, but they also rebuilt half of Germany and gave them a measure of independence after the war.

@RTSG_Main Is that supposed to be Böhm-Bawerk? lol. lmao. His critique of the LTV was basically Patrick-tier.

@ThePrimeagen Since Opus 4.7 flopped, their only play left is “feelings / personality / were the human AI company.” This vid dovetails with some of the celebrity endorsements they’ve been buying lately. Seems like they’ve found a marketing direction and they’re sticking with it.

[Dylan Layne Tanner @DylanLTanner]

Completely unhinged of them to put out a manifesto, but I'm kind of glad they did, in a way.

They can't take this back, they can't pivot. They've put their cards on the table. People can (and will) ignore it or make excuses for it. But they've forever lost the optionality they had as the "quiet, behind-the-scenes defense tech company."

@ILTollway Hey @ILTollway your payment form's expiration field is busted on autocomplete—it only works if you manually enter it. You should have your devs check the validation script; shouldn't be a difficult fix.

If you're a freelancer or doing SEO for your organization, or your own projects, you need to try SEO Utils.

It's $64 per year plus whatever API credits you burn. This year I'll save ~$2,800 using it. That's only part of the reason why I switched, though:

- Its map rank grid, NAP tool, and review monitor can replace your existing local SEO tool stack
- The AI tools are actually useful (semantic clustering / topic clustering, Google AI Overview visibility tracking, and more)
- It's highly configurable (residential proxies, OpenRouter, etc.)

Plus you're supporting an indie developer rather than a huge company that's resting on its laurels.

I'm going to put together a more detailed tutorial on how to switch over.

@SeloSlav This question more than any other brings out the misanthropes.

[Dylan Layne Tanner @DylanLTanner]

@michlakeshore You found a nice one! Used to occasionally get them in my pool when I lived in Oakland County; they'd come up out of the Rouge River during rainstorms.

@RoyRogers_HTMS The Water is Wide seems like the perfect song for it. What an awesome instrument!

@PraisePsalmist_ Took me about 3 weeks after switching from PS + Illustrator + InDesign -> Affinity until I was working at my old speed.

Once more people start making tutorials for these new tools aimed at replicating Adobe workflows, I think you’ll see a lot more folks switch.

[Dylan Layne Tanner @DylanLTanner]

I've done it, and I've talked a few friends in the creative space into trying it. Tired of paying $80-90 / mo for bloated, unstable software that barely ever gets a decent update.

There was a time when all the Adobe replacements were a massive step down and basically unusable for professional work. Recent Affinity versions changed that for me.

@phuclh93 @seoutils_app Just wanted to say thank you for creating a great app. Switched from one of the big name SEO tools and I’m incredibly happy with SEOUtils so far.
