You're going to see all sorts of big-brained takes from politco dorks about tonight for the next several weeks, but it's very simple: we started another pointless war with Iran on behalf of Israel, the economy in unbearable for normal people, there have been no mass deportations + Walmart still look like Mumbai, and the GOP ran a bunch of minorities and women instead of White men. This isn't rocket science.

Installed this dope offline survival LLM but it didn't have an app icon, so I made one. Here's how to add it (or make your own): Generate a 1024×1024 PNG with ChatGPT Open in Preview → Cmd+A → Cmd+C Finder → Applications → Right-click app → Get Info Click the tiny app icon in the top-left Cmd+V
My friends were all talking about prepping so I made a survival LLM. A free app that runs an AI mdoel plus 1.5 million offline articles (medical guides, FEMA, survival manuals, wikipedia) entirely on your computer. No internet needed. brangus.io/survival-llm

saw @devteamdrew's Opus 5.5 stop-motion video and had to try and make a launch video for my vinyl app @digcrates. every frame is code, and every cover is a record on my shelf.
Introducing Claude Opus 5.5, the first model in our new Claude 5.5 family. It performs at the level of Claude Fable 5.1 for most tasks, and costs 40% less to run than Opus 5.

how it works: • @Remotion (React) renders every frame as SVG • "stop-motion" = frames held on twos + noise filters that wobble the ink lines • Claude wrote a beat detector and synced every cut to my @suno track • album covers pulled live from my actual collection v1 was one prompt, then ~5 rounds of notes
