Heavy sigh.

Mozilla, in its finite wisdom, embedded LLM bots into recent versions of Firefox for the vitally-important purpose of… naming tab groups. Now, some users are noticing CPU and power usage spikes caused by a background process called Inference.

Ugh. Reminder again for Firefox users to visit your about:config page, search for the browser.ml.chat.enabled key, and set that to false:

If yours says true then double-click it until it reads false.

Doing that turns off the AI chatbot features in Firefox, but also the stupid new LLM tab-naming feature that's rolling out.

Your argument intrigues me.

Hey you all know about that fungus that possesses ants to make them climb on the tip of grass blades in hopes of getting eaten by a cow, so that the fungus can continue its life cycle in the cow's guts? Because I think that's the kind of thing that's wrong with cave divers.

We don't know what's down there. We don't know what's gotten into their heads that makes them so determined to physically, personally go down there to find out. But I wouldn't entirely dismiss the possibility that whatever has gotten into them is very invested in getting eaten by whatever is down there.

He is splendid, I love the expression on his little face.

An unglazed, brown clay dragon will be a part of this upcoming shop update! This was an experiment, but I like how it turned out. The colors are somewhat inspired by the bold colors in illuminated manuscript paintings.

This piece will be available this Friday, August 15th at 8pm Eastern time!

Fellow black anchorites, bone adepts, siblings in Jod: here is a cover of Hozier’s “Take Me To Church” I found for you. I’ve been earwormed with it all day so far.

Amazing!

Another feline skull raku piece for the shop update! This one has a more realistic color and a lot more crackles in the glaze.

This sculpture and more will be available this Friday, July 25th at 8pm Eastern time!

I love talking with neurotypical people about my executive dysfunction because I'm like "yeah there's this invisible wall in my head that I'm incapable of getting past no matter what I do and it stops me from doing things" and they're like what the actual fuck

Meanwhile other neurodivergents are like
