"only a poor artisan blames his tools" is such bullshit, in almost every imaginable line of work the quality of the tools you have access to plays a massive role in the quality of the end product, sometimes in excess of the role played by individual skill! For example, some people have to code in javascript

You’ve got a friend in Pennsylvania
The friendliest house. 💚
and while we’re at it, fuck this idea that ONE ACCOUNT has to belong uniquely to ONE PERSON. This is the same thing these silicon valley fucks want; their vision of the future where everyone has a unique biometric ID code implanted in their body is the ultimate extension of Netflix’s “no password sharing” policy. You want to use your friend’s car? Sorry, you can’t, you need to be an authorized user. Your mother wants to let you look something up on her OED account? Too bad! That’s only for her! The concept of perfect market efficiency gives them greedy little money bag eyes.
If I pay money to have a newspaper sent to my house, they don’t charge me extra when I show it to my dad. This password sharing thing isn’t just a Netflix problem; don’t be surprised if it shows up elsewhere in other forms. Stamp this idea out now or we’ll be stuck with it.
This is by far the most popular post I have and I have to say: good, I’m right. Password sharing and ID verification are going to kill the internet. not oooh in 50 years. in like 5 more.
I read a piece a while back that pointed out that when you buy a hammer, it doesn't randomly change length or color or its entire-ass functionality at some point in the future. This is a major way in which real physical tools are superior to software, especially software as a service.
I'm adding "I can lend or give a hammer to my neighbor at any time just because" to the list of reasons software as a service sucks compared to real tools.
Pictures from this morning and a passage from Terry Pratchett’s Carpe Jugulum that I was thinking about as I walked.
Warrior Cats-esque xenofiction campaign but set 20,000 years after the Cretaceous asteroid and centering around the surviving birds, who are the last of the dinosaurs. The birds tell stories and legends about the "Great Purge", where the heavens punished their ancestors for their hubris.
ok but the idea of birds having oral history is fascinating
i watch baseball for the side quests
throwback to 2021 when the exact same player started doing this extended water bottle bincoculars sight gag in the dugout
this is the same guy who also made himself a fruit cocktail midgame. he is The manic pixie dream girl
baseball is actually not a sport it’s just a documentary of human nature and how we battle boredom. the stuff these teams get up to while they’re waiting their turn.
and it’s hilarious when they pull pranks on each other, like attaching things to other people’s caps:
or the beloved hot foot prank:
or when they decided to put a guy’s pants over his head and make it seem like he was walking on his hands:
or when they opposing pitchers took turns playing tic tac toe every time they got on the mound:
i take back everything bad i've ever said about baseball these boys can fucking Post
Sometimes you have to entertain yourself out in the field too, like the time Victor Robles made friends with a praying mantis.
and some college baseball shenanigans
Not my photos, sadly. Taken in Pittsburgh by Jonas Wisser and posted on Mastodon at the link below. I’m posting them here with permission.
Anyway, the brightly colored small bird at the feeder is a painted bunting, a fabulous-looking bird I have wanted to see all my life but figured I never would because it lives in the south, I mean far south. But look! This one somehow strayed into the wrong end of Pennsylvania and has been visiting someone’s feeder for weeks. Luckies!
(Yells out the window—Come on, juncos, step up your game!)
Attached: 4 images Today's small friend is this painted bunting, who should be vacationing in Florida, Cuba, or Mexico at this time of year
