dude GPT-6 Astra is some kind of turbo-AGI machine god for 3D games. It one-shot this in 45 minutes for hardly a couple % of my quota.

I figured out how to get great graphics out of it. The trick is image gen. I'll share the process below.

Aviso para los que usan Omarchy. Realmente me mantuve alejada de esta distro porque su desarrollador/creador es medio raro, tipo, raro raro.

Manteniendo las políticas de lado si no no haría este tweet. Esa distro está llena de vulnerabilidades. Con visitar una web y 2 clicks ya te pueden hackear o spawnear una shell.

Con un USB te pueden hackear.

Con un comando pueden hacer LPE a root porque el desarrollador hizo que Docker corriera en root e incluir al user del usuario en el grupo de Docker.

Está increiblemente vibecodeado. Uno de los PRs/Patches que tuvo recientemetne literalmente decía "Dejar de procesar nombres de USBs como scripts Lua de Hyprland" O sea... ???

En serio, es malísimo las vulnerabilidades que están saliendo, Y SOLO ESTA SEMANA.

The story I’d love to see told on screen is a poor, ambitious Dolly, 18, signed as a staff songwriter to Combine Music alongside Willie Nelson & Kris Kristofferson.

Dolly Parton. Rockstar Forever. ❤️

@AahanPrometheus @BobEUnlimited Legends! The Folgers ad read is an Easter Egg for long time X followers. Maybe you can land a SuperCuts endorsement next?!? ✂️🤣

I’ve launched a @gofundme to help out @thetomsavini after the terrible fire that struck his home last Saturday. Tom is aware of this is asked me to thank everyone who reached out their concerns. Please help spread the word. Link in bio on both mine and Tom’s pages. https://t.co/OeWRqFqcLV

UKR has eliminated 70% of top-tier mega-hubs & 60% of Tier-2 major hubs. This is the main logistics source for sending things like fiber optic spools to RU drone teams near the front.

David Z recorded the demo that got @Prince signed to Warner Bros.. Too bad you can’t sort by engineer/producer on Spotify. I bet his stream count is insane…

Legendary night when Glen stopped in to the open mic after a show in Pittsburgh. Never saw someone work a crowd like that — he grew up busking in the streets of Dublin

Irish singer-songwriter Glen Hansard, best known for starring in the 2007 indie darling “Once” and winning an Oscar for “Falling Slowly,” the film’s original song along with co-star Markéta Irglová, has died. He was 56.

Most people don’t realize Ryan Reynolds is a mogul: he had a $1.35 billion exit with Mint Mobile with a ~25% equity stake & that’s just *one* of his business deals.

The fans got Deadpool off the ground so many years ago. Yesterday, 10 years after the first film and exactly 2 years after Deadpool & Wolverine, I felt so lucky to be on the #SDCC floor with everyone whose unapologetic devotion brings so much joy to this world.

The Odyssey works because 2,000-year-old myths still map powerfully onto human consciousness. As a film, though, I found it dark, ponderous, and disjointed. I also wasn't sold on much of the casting or character design.

Ukraine has torched 7 Wildberries distribution hubs in the last 5 days. Russia’s answer to Amazon. Since they’re being used to distribute sanctioned electronics components, they’re legitimate military targets.

Sometimes history invisibly revolves around lesser known figures: Wayne Charvel’s guitar designs from a little repair shop in So-Cal, set the blueprint for 1980s heavy metal.

[Lita R Ford @litafordfanpage]

RIP Wayne Charvel. Superhero guitar luthier & legend that changed the face of the rock world! Deepest condolences to his family, friends, and fans! Greatness never dies 🎸🤘💫

I always think of @JimMorrison on July 3rd. It only occurred to me last week that the time from their first single to Jim’s passing on that date was only four years.

[John Densmore @JohnDensmore]

Missing my friend @JimMorrison a little bit extra today.

People often focus on the myth, but I remember the guy sitting across from me in a rehearsal room, chasing words and ideas with the same intensity that he brought to the stage.

Chatting with @claudeai about extracting audio from dead recording formats. It’s not trained on vintage digital audio (very sparse data availability), so does make some mistakes, but it’s unbelievable what you can figure out in a couple hours.

[Michael Kearney @michaelkearney]

I’ve long heard lore that @TheWho’s “Baba O’Reilly” intro was an organ running into through an ARP synthesizer. Debunked!

[Backstage @Backstagebs1]

The fact that “Baba O’Reilly” was created by a simple switch on an analog organ is just so fucking cool.

always assumed it was a synth patch. Human creativity and analog gear will always remain undefeated

Bummed to hear DK Anderson passed away last week at age 46. Played with him in a band years ago. Always enjoyed his sweet tenor saxophone tone. He released a solo album in 2018. https://t.co/oIISkmHqhZ

You know that moment when TikTok became the main A&R engine for the music industry? It just happened with YouTube for the film industry.

Early to mid-2000s, you really couldn’t escape The Matrix on the radio (remember radio?). Incredibly detailed look at how some of those songs came about (Daniel’s specialty).

UKR using start-up scaling techniques to increase drone operator count & re-engineer short-range drones into medium-range, creating significant pressure on RU logistics.

[(((Tendar))) @Tendar]

The amount of destroyed Russian trucks and other vehicles along the main supply routes in Ukraine's South is mind-boggling. We are talking about more than 100 destroyed vehicles in a matter of few weeks, and this is only what has been published. The number is certainly far higher.

The main focus of Ukrainian mid-range drones are the highway connecting the Russian-occupied cities of Donetsk, Mariupol, Melitopol and Dzhankoy. Russian supplies have been disrupted to the extent that fuel rationing and price hiking has started in Crimea, Ukraine's most southern province.
