Halo is coming to PS5?

I feel like my inner child is crying tears of joy right now.

“According to a 2019 USDA report, every dollar in new SNAP benefits increases GDP by $1.50 in a weak economy.”

“SNAP benefits are one of the fastest, most effective forms of economic stimulus because they get money into the economy quickly during a recession.”

Why the fuck is ADHD called "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder" when it's very clearly a "conciousness astral projects itself into outer space the exact moment something very important was explained syndrome".

This was something I came across when using Android. Before iOS 26, I never had a problem with my iPhone's battery life and performance, not even at 3 years old. All of a sudden, there's overheating, battery drain in standby, my partner's phone completely crapping out after the update...

Why'd you have to go and ruin something that wasn't broken? The old iOS was working fine. iOS 26 is toasting my phone, it completely fried my partner's phone that they had to replace it with the latest iPhone, and everyone I know who uses an iPhone fucking despises liquid glass.

I know I'm always banging on about this, but food banks can do so much more with your donation if you give money rather than food itself.

skáld @danglinghemmie.bsky.social · 3d

food banks have already been under pressure over the past several years, and with SNAP benefits expiring they're going to be the only safety net for a lot of people

please donate what you can. $100 can feed several families for a month because of the discounts and purchasing power they have

“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡

Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro says 'I'd rather die' than use generative AI

Del Toro's new Frankenstein adaption reimagines Mary Shelley's 1818 Gothic novel. Frankenstein was like a tech bro: "creating something without considering the consequences," he explains.

I thought I’d get more excited about the Leica M EV1, but now that I think about it, the charm of the M was the rangefinder. With an EVF, it’s just another mirrorless. If you want to use M-mount lenses, do what I do and adapt them.

For $9K, I’d backtrack and get a rangefinder M instead.

The Leica M EV1 is the Leica rangefinder-style camera I’ve been wanting for over a decade.

But if I have to punch in to check focus, which is something that I’ve already been doing for the past 12 years, with an asking price of $9,000… then what’s different from my current mirrorless setup?

If I was rich, I’d buy the Leica M EV1.
But alas nine grand for a camera is fucking insane.

Panel 1: Top-down-ish perspective of Shen pushing his shopping cart into a checkout aisle. He is looking up at a sign attached to the aisle, that reads "EXPRESS LANE - 12 ITEMS OR LESS"

Panel 2: Shen picks up two bags of carrots in his shopping cart, saying "Aw jeez. The carrots are in two bags, so I think I technically have 13 items."

Panel 3: Shen rubs the back of his head, smiling with a twinge of nervousness but also clearly accepting the situation. He says "ah, well, I'm sure they'll understand..."

Panel 4: Shen is blindfolded and on his knees in front of the wall in the parking lot behind the store, with his hands tied behind his back. The cashier, still in apron, is pointing a rifle at him.

If what I read about the Sony a7 V is true (a7 IV sensor, a7R V body, not the a9 III one),

I’m gonna jump ship to Panasonic.

Sony as a company’s been doing some sketchy shit these past couple of years, and if it’s true, the Sony a7 V would be proof of that.

I had this iPhone for 3 years, and I haven’t had any major problems with it… until iOS 26 fucking liquid glass dropped.

My battery dies a little quicker than usual, it gets HOTTER than usual,

and it’s the most fucking ugliest UI I’ve ever seen in MY LIFE. NOTHING TOPS IT.
