my 7 yo daughter: wait, people used to stare at *flickering* screens 16 hours a day? is this why everyone was anxious and unable to focus?
me: yup
her: omg does this explain the generational brain damage too?
me: amongst other things, yes
her: that’s insane. thanks dad for posting about it
"I do not understand why this starving man wants to eat food every time I hold a delicious steak in front of him. I do not know what is wrong with him."
"I do not understand why my sexually deprived husband always wants to have sex every time I make out with him."
Look, I am going to explain this to you. If a man is starving, he is going to snap at every morsel of food that comes his way. If a man is satisfied, he is going to let some opportunities pass by because he is already full.
Ladies, if your husband wants to have sex every time you touch him, it means you are not having sex with him often enough. If you are having sex with him often enough, he is going to feel so satisfied that he is perfectly happy to let an opportunity pass by.
Do not let your man be hungry all the time and see how that changes your relationship dynamics.
Having become our brother, the Son of God looks at the people; He looks at humanity and sees the oppression that burdens and the violence that causes strength to fade. He sees the wounds of war and the emptiness of consumerism. He sees faces reduced to masks, families torn apart by evil, and young people misled by false ideals. Jesus sees and loves. He loves and suffers for and with us: His compassion expresses not only fraternal closeness, but His desire to redeem. #GospelOfToday (Mt 9:36 – 10:8)
Trump himself is a liberal. We haven’t had anything approaching an actual right wing in America in over half a century.
The deeper truth is that every American who calls himself ‘conservative’ is a liberal, because conservatism here only ever conserves liberalism. We have run on a single ideology for two centuries. A right that did not begin with Locke has never set foot in this country.
The same people who routinely said that their product was going to destroy white collar employment as we know it are now saying that half their company can't do any meaningful work due to export controls. Possibly this will give them all a chance to reflect.
Russell Crowe talks pushing back on studio pressure for sex scenes in Ridley Scott’s ‘Gladiator’ and says ‘Gladiator II’ failed to ignite audiences in the same way as the original film because it lacked a “moral core” - Taormina Film Festival
Ok, so I jumped on the dates soaked in espresso trend… and it’s unreal.
Make some black coffee.
Add dates.
Marinate overnight.
Have on top of greek yoghurt, honey and a pinch of salt.
Unreal luxury breakfast or sweet treat.
(I chop my dates in half so the coffee really gets inside. They get jammier if you leave them 1 day+)🤌🏼
this is currently both:
• the strongest bull case for crypto over the next few years
• one of the most non-consensus bets in all of tech
very difficult to achieve which is why payout will be extremely asymmetric if correct
AMD CEO LISA SU HELD A MINI PC ON STAGE THAT RUNS A 235B MODEL AND REPLACES YOUR $440/MONTH AI STACK
amd's ryzen ai max+ 395 is the first x86 chip that runs a 200 billion parameter model on one piece of silicon. cpu and gpu share 128gb of unified memory, no separate graphics card needed
the gmktec evo-x2 runs qwen3 235b fully, deepseek v3 comfortably and llama 3.3 70b with headroom. on linux you get 110gb of usable vram out of 128gb
amd claimed the chip beat an nvidia rtx 5080 by more than 3x on deepseek r1 inference. a lunchbox sized pc outrunning a $1,000 discrete gpu on a real ai workload
a heavy ai user pays $200 for claude code max, $200 for chatgpt pro, $20 for cursor and $20 for gemini. that's $5,280 a year and the box pays itself off in 9 to 10 months
install ollama, pull the model, point claude code at localhost. same interface, nothing leaves the machine, nothing costs per request

white pill for my nerds:
60fps e-ink display
a random guy outperformed entire eng teams by developing a pixel by pixel driver for e-ink displays that makes it 60fps.
he did that after work for months, launched it yesterday.
the future is bright
This might be the new meta 🤣
-Flip to side thermal and magnifier
-zero the thermals reticle
-use as a 45 offset
-maintain daytime/passive aiming use of red dot
-flip magnifier back if you want magnified red dot
I’m gonna have to play around with this and see how it works.
