You know, it’s important to have tragic blorbos sometimes because hey, maybe you had a bad day, maybe your job sucks so fucking much. But do you know who had a worse day? Blorbo bleebus, who’s doomed by the narrative

This is bugging me because everyone keeps asking us this and making me feel underprepared. For context, I fly out a week from today for Scotland. For the last two weeks, people have been asking me if I've got everything packed yet.
I typically don't start packing until 2-3 days before, and when I tell them this, they look at me like I'm nuts.
Am I really that unusual?
#it depends on how long am staying and how critical it is that i have everything with me and have all situations accounted for#2 weeks with my family in the countryside? i know what i need to bring and if i forget something i can borrow it from someone#im going abroad alone#to a festival#or going camping in the middle of nowhere?#im marching of to war i start packing like 3 weeks beforehand so that i have anything i would need and if i dont have it i can get it#before i leave

i like the phrases "it's not for me," "it's not my thing," and "i'm not the target audience" because they're the most concise way to express "this thing that you enjoy has merits but idgaf about it" without being aggressive

Mozilla, in its finite wisdom, embedded LLM bots into recent versions of Firefox for the vitally-important purpose of… naming tab groups. Now, some users are noticing CPU and power usage spikes caused by a background process called Inference.
Ugh. Reminder again for Firefox users to visit your about:config page, search for the browser.ml.chat.enabled key, and set that to false:
If yours says true then double-click it until it reads false.
Doing that turns off the AI chatbot features in Firefox, but also the stupid new LLM tab-naming feature that's rolling out.

This was news from thee newscast here (Tagesschau) so the article is only in German but here my favourite parts:
- for a long time the only reason they knew the worm existed were the traces it left on the corals it ate, no one ever saw it
- until one day they found a one point five metre long part of the worm that was still wiggling
- only the part was missing the head, and the corals continued to be eaten, so apparently the worm just got rid of its bum and continued on like normal
- DNA tests of the bum could not determine its species, only that it is in some way related to the bobbit worm (also called eunice aphroditois), so this might be an entirely new species
- the worm is called 'Phantom'
- they installed cameras for four days, but didn't manage to capture the worm, after removing the cameras the worm continued eating the corals - right where the cameras had been
- the guy who positioned the camera said to that 'Lots of material, sadly extremly little worm, as in neither a long nor the short worm. We haven't seen anything.'
- now they have installed a camera again and a popular german news channel is streaming the whole night so that everyone can search for Phantom:
