@NotKnown welcome back!

I don't know why, but the price of bitcoin has lately has been making me happy.

@briankrebs @renchap I can objectively say that AI scrapers are a massive problem for me and a drain on resources. Everyone and their dog is trying to scrape the internet continuously with badly designed/vibe coded crawlers that don’t seem to keep track of what they’ve already crawled, let alone the context of what they are attempting to crawl or honoring robots.txt etc

@renchap I don't blame Hetzner, and I know they aren't the only ones. It's going to soon impact just about everything else we do online, I am guessing.

ugh. hetzner just announced a pretty significant price increase. I'm going to have to start some serious downsizing before that happens😕

@mttaggart cf express and dram prices are already skyrocketing. Hitting the photographers hard.

Bitcoin is having quite a few days. Poor crypto-bros

@hcf I probably should have done that.

I had to replace the battery in my car today. I “borrowed” my son’s car and went to autozone for a new one. I was not prepared for the price 🤯

@grahamperrin beige seems like a fine instance.

@grahamperrin @crp I run a bunch of different instances. Let me know if you have any questions.

@rysiek @catsalad that’s what happens after decades of working from home

@rysiek @catsalad 😅

@rysiek @catsalad that made me laugh harder than it should have

@jmccance @poisonpunk @catsalad that’s definitely from surgery. I’m not sure how one asks a cat for consent to perform an operation like that 🤔

@catsalad I have had cats for many years and did not realize how skinny they can be relative to their fluffed out size.

@breathOfLife I know the former owners/admins stepped back and appointed a new person to be the admin/owner. We do see an occasional complaint about an account there, but it’s nothing out of the ordinary. I haven’t heard anything about them since that flap last spring. To me, it seems like the concerns were addressed and as such I don’t see an issue with continuing on there. That said, I don’t keep up with all of the inter-instance controversies, so it’s entirely possible I’m unaware of something and may in fact, be causing a whole new controversy with my reply 😅

I remember when the FIFA Peace Prize used to mean something

Last beach day of 2025. Back to reality tomorrow 😕

I made it to the beach just in time to get some sunset pics. A happy coincidence that the sailboat happened to come along.
