Idiomdrottning demonstrates a new and often cleaner way to solve most systems problems. The system as a whole is likely to feel tantalizingly familiar to culture users but at the same time quite foreign.

It’s disheartening that a lot of the things we get (rightly!) upset about in US politics we are just numb to and cowed under when it happens here in Sweden. ICE raids, shutdowns of BLM protests, profiled stop-and-frisk, political leaders mocking climate activists, fossil lobbying, deforestation, ocean exploitation...
Last night I dreamed that I traveled far and wide through many distant lands. What did I see there? A scientist named Professor Meme and his friend, who went by Joe or Jake or if it was Robert—you know how dreams can get fuzzy—and their buddies, a couple of clown comics of yesteryear. They explained to me that...
I feel like the big difference between the Pluribus hivemind vs either of the two most obvious comparisons—Meta’s social networks and LLM’s like ChatGPT—is that those two are corporate-owned. Pluribus is “imposed” in a lot of the ways they are but not all: if the “psychic glue” description ends up being true that’s...
I’ve retraced my step trying to remember how I became such a screentime hater. It started with me not wanting to be on board with Facebook or other proprietary apps. But after a few years years of this I got so sick of being a FOSS weirdo which no-one could understand or respect or see why it was important or...
In Stockholm, traffic lights have a push button that pedestrians are supposed to press when they cross and all the type A personalities that’d press the button even when it had already been pressed and lit up used to bug me, an annoyance that persisted in me for maybe six months or so after I found out that no, it...
I saw a docu about a nun who’d spent 25 years in a Carmel cloister. Which for Sweden is unusual. Obv I was fishing for info about digital minimalism but the docu didn’t deliver what I wanted in that regard. She says at one point “We don’t have radio, TV, or newspapers, and we use internet very sparingly”. I was like...
This is so jank but I was frustrated with how the rest parameter redundantly has all the keywords left in (unlike stragglers in define-options) so I did a grobian solution at least for now: (define (strip-keys keys) (fn (strip-keys x keys))) (define (strip-keys lis keys) (cons (car lis) (strip-keys (cdr lis) keys)))...
Compile is a game-with-content since the basic ludemic operations (flip, shift, cover, draw etc) are concatenated in various combinations into cards so that they can sell cards endlessly. I don’t like that. But for a game-with-content it’s unbelievably bland. Cards don’t have their own flavor or even their own name....
Radio P1 har ett nytt debattprogram som heter “Krasch eller konsensus” och jag tyckte det var vanskligt på flera sätt. Grundidén är att programledaren kör en bil där två meningsmotståndare sitter med honom; alla tre sitter på främreraden på nåt sätt, och så ska han inte sluta köra förrän dom har kommit överens. Jag...
coffeetree: the chatbot paradigm is literally an infinite feed baconlad: hard disagree on this. Its not feeding you content. coffeetree: That’s like saying “I only use this one tiny feature of Facebook, and no other features, and no other platforms, and I handle that paradigm just fine.” And some people do say that....
