Angine de Pointrine.
I guarantee you that if they were up there in t-shirts and jeans they wouldn't have a fraction of the popularity they have. The costumes feel like such a crutch.

Designed a paper model for a Dutch Wish Ambulance Foundation.
Very popular model, today the foundation ordered a second big batch within two months. Somehow it is also popular on Pinterest. It’s strange how things like that turn out.

Did we even have summer this year? :( ...was just walking my pup at around 10:30pm and I CAN ALREADY SEE MY BREATH. :/ :(

- Dec, Jan and Feb is summer, so no it yet ;)sab
- One day it was 114F when I got to work at 5:30pm, and 109F when I left at 2:10am.
I definitely had a summer. :(Akagiyama - I miss that, Akagiyama... I'll take the desert heat (and a pair of shorts & flip flops) over this shit any day. :/PonyBoy

Signs your getting old?
50 years of U2.
I discovered them thanks to a tacky boyfriend my sister had—a huge fan of *The Joshua Tree* (I never really liked him or that album all that much).
That said, *Achtung Baby*... that one blew me away.
It’s a shame; these days, my stomach turns whenever I hear them.
It’s funny how something you loved so much back then can end up being something you absolutely loathe years later.
With lentils, it’s the opposite: I hated them as a kid, but now I adore them. Maybe Bono just ages worse than lentil stew?
- Achtung lp was my real first time I cared about them - they nailed the that 90s sound and imagery, design, saw them live for that tour, their best imoprophetone
- I’m the same lol, for some reason, I can’t listen to them now, and I listen to tonnes of 90s stuffprophetone
- I still love the fly, but...OBBTKN
- I'm kind of the opposite... I enjoyed Achtung Baby but anything after that was a letdown. Anything Joshua Tree and before still has a place in my heart.PonyBoy
- I like ‘Zooropa’ the tune still but maybe like a once a year listening lolprophetone
- POP was still holding its own... but from then on, it was a freefall with no brakes.OBBTKN
- i was at the achtung baby tour gig ,, with the free connies handout... all the media stuff was kinda good, cant listen to it anymore.. except for the openningneverscared
- . except for the openning riff from that album for 30 secondsneverscared
- Totally with you on this. I think it's Bono's arrogance. Achtung Baby, Zooropa and Pop were my U2 phase. Still listen every now and then. Fuck, they're on now!Ianbolton
- I don't care not to like them... actually feels trendy to bash Bono these days. Live and let live.canoe
- ooh bono lives very well... trashing him or not...neverscared
- Unforgettable Fire - produced by Brian Eno - is an amazing record. Recorded in a castle in Ireland, Eno's fingerprint all over it. Highly enjoyable!stoplying
- ^They did another album with Eno as Passengers. is great if you dig Eno stuff.futurefood
- I saw them support Talking Heads in London in 1980 and it was evident to me that they were shite then and to be forever avoided.Gardener
- Business rockmort_
- I gotta say though, their popularity and coming from my hometown meant we could all aspire be rock stars and a lot of good music came out of Dublin / Ireland.mort_
- That may not have without U2 blowing upmort_
- Read his book and you'll get a better understanding of the band and Bono, they're hardly 'business rock'.canoe

Artificial Intelligence
AI generated a fake intelligence report that 'almost started a war'
CNN reports that the U.S. military almost boarded a Chinese ship following a fake report generated by AIAn "entirely false" report generated by AI "almost started a war" with China, sources told CNN.
In an exclusive, several sources familiar with the incident told CNN that the fake report stated that a Chinese ship in the Middle East was transporting components of a nuclear weapon. Members of the U.S. military planned to board the ship, and military planes were in.

Food
Made "French" Dip sandwiches for the time for dinner.
I'd never had them before.Dipped both cut surfaces of the bread in the jus, roast beef in the jus, on the bread, caramelised onions, Emmentaler cheese.
I mean ... it's okay. It's a beef and cheese sandwich dipped in gravy. Nothing innovative, here.
Hassle to make, though, so I'm not sure the effort is worth the reward. Sandwiches aren't supposed to take this much time to make.
- If I'm gonna spend this much time on something, I'd rather it be something interesting.Continuity

- @stoplying, I think the thing that bugged me the most was the eating experience. I really don't think baguette is the right bread for this, because the crustContinuity
- ... survives dipping just fine, while the crumb of the bread doesn't. So while you're trying to get your teeth through the crust, the whole sandwich ...Continuity
- ... is disintegrating. Not the most pleasant eating experience.Continuity

FUCK ADOBE!
Adobe Photoshop costs too much and tools like GIMP don’t feel familiar enough for me to stay in flow. That’s why I built Compositor.
The goal was to create a full-featured image editor that is completely free and open source. I use Photoshop for compositing and post-processing, so Compositor is built around that workflow - with the tools needed to create a pixel-perfect final image.
Because it’s open source, you can download the Xcode project and add, remove, or modify any feature to fit your needs.
- Did you make this or did you copy/paste this? Assuming you made it, damn, this looks amazing.mg33
- I've got a couple crazy tools I've built that are browser based and run off a server at home, but it would be interesting to figure out how to turn them intomg33
- standalone applications.mg33
- This doesn't work with Sequoia?mg33
- No not me, just saw on social media.
https://x.com/robbie…yuekit - Cool, wasn't sure. I don't update my Mac mini to the latest OS because of issues with Logic Pro plugin updates. Will check out an my Air.mg33
- Oh, you built a Photoshop alternative. As one does :Djagara
- No chance of a Windows version? </joke>jagara
- TBF this is hardly the only PS alternative out there. This one is somewhat basic but made by a designer and has better UI.yuekit
- Could also be a good starting point if someone wanted to build their own image editor for Mac.yuekit
- Amazing. Would install if I wasn't on PC :)jagara
- but but affinity photo?hans_glib
- Good idea but useless for me. Doesn’t work with older macOS.sab
- Yeah you need the latest OS. It's actually pretty good and he added a lot of features since I posted this.yuekit

Faux AGI crisis to set stage for creating controlled moats around duopoly to prevent market obsolescence
- one theoryprophetone
- the timing is certainly suspect - borrowing costs rising, much less mid-east money available to fund datacenter buildout.monNom
- 'regulating' the industry and thus locking out open models is almost the perfect solution for where these big labs find themselves today.monNom
- ...and you don't really see these guys slowing down. They're still building the doomsday device even though it's gonna 'kill us all'monNom
- A related theory could be that they want to monopolize use of AI for some purposes. For instance you establish that AI is incredibly dangerous in biotech...yuekit
- And then Anthropic and OpenAI get to restrict AI biotech research to themselves and own all the IP that results from it.yuekit
- Open models out in the wild will destroy the trillion dollar companies as soon as they become better, more prevalent, easier for average person to set upprophetone
