anyway what's the next grift big tech is going to come up with for using all those GPUs they bought when they thought bitcoin was going to be good

hackers are really rational people who truly think for themselves, unlike all other people

I don't think #spooncarving will ever be my main thing but it's such a nice way to practice and experiment. This little spoon is for the sugar bowl. It was a piece of birch around a knot that I almost threw in the compost but then I thought it might be worth trying to work that swerving grain.

In retrospect, maybe organizing the whole world via Teen-Chat and Celebrity-Quip products was not a good idea.

An organic, fair-trade, community-governed, collectively-owned, open-source oil rig is still an oil rig.

25 jaar geleden was 13 mei een zaterdag en net zulk prachtig weer als vandaag. Vijf jaar geleden schreef ik op wat ik die dag zag, hoorde, voelde, en deed. Vanochtend las ik het terug en rolden toch weer tranen over mijn wangen. Het was een dag die voorgoed in mijn lijf bleef wonen.
