Hilarity is people who have lectured me Dan Lyke / comment 0

Hilarity is people who have lectured me at great length on the need to abide by extensive municipal processes (that led to plans that weren't implementable) using the Nextdoor mob to second-guess the General Plan.

Guess it only counts when it's your "right people" making the decisions?

Went to the theater to see Coyote vs Dan Lyke / comment 0

Went to the theater to see Coyote vs. Acme last night. Gotta admit we were kinda underwhelmed. I mean, not a bad movie, but we'd both have been happy to catch it streaming and felt like they could have spent a bit more time punching up the script.

Okay Dan Lyke / comment 0

Okay, that was a guess, and I got it right, but really, Timdle, putting "Austria becomes a duchy" up against "Battle of Legnano"?

I'm getting super suspicious of Dan Lyke / comment 0

I'm getting super suspicious of anything that posits "AI" as actually intelligent. Anyone know anything about stoptheracetoreplace(dot)org or futureoflife(dot)org?

Oh, wait... David Gerard got there already: https://pivot-to-ai.com/2026/0...o-astroturf-fake-anti-ai-groups/
