@askaya I have never held a fish in a photo or anywhere actually so I have no idea, isn't it from some ye Olde famous photo or something? but I'll ask a question in response, what's with the pout selfies women always take?

Hey men, can you all please explain to me why you like taking pictures holding a fish? I don’t get it

@james_xond Oh crap yeah and my one of a kind morduant short speakers from an audio show also in the 70s, 4' high tubes wrapped in red leather

@james_xond Yes I have a Pyrex dish I use for making pasta bakes and pies in, it was part of stuff given to my parents on their wedding in the 70s, my mum gave it to me when I moved out, I used it since I was about 8 years old and as recently as 3 days ago

Trying to prove a point. Do you have anything in your house that’s been around for 30+ years?

@FinalSpace Happy birthday for tomorrow

Hey everyone, A few shipping updates! First off, we're still going hard every single day. We haven't really taken a day off since this started. Saturdays, Sundays...doesn't matter everything is blurring together. We're doing everything we can to get these novels out the door as fast as possible. Heck tomorrow is my birthday and I'm going to be doing this but the job. is. not. done. It's been awesome seeing international orders from Batch 1 and Batch 2 landing in your hands. Thank you all for the patience. I also updated the shipping ticker on the site. We're now pushing through orders 11,000–21,000, which means... We're officially about halfway through shipping all pre-order novels. We're waiting on updating shipping confirmations from MacMillian. The biggest thing slowing us down right now is still address changes. Yes, we're still updating addresses every day. We get emails every minute of every day asking for them. Happy to do it! What's happening though is shipping notifications are showing up in inboxes, people check them and realize: "OH NO... that's my old address!" Then they email us after the box has already been packed or shipped. We try to catch as many as possible before they leave the warehouse, but once they're gone, they're gone. At that point we have repack and resend. That's just the reality of shipping A LOT of books. We can post deadlines, reminders, updates, emails, social posts... but information doesn't always reach everyone at the same time. Sometimes someone sees the fourth reminder instead of the first. All good. So now we're still pushing forward but also trying to help fix the ones that are hitting errors. Another thing worth mentioning: If USPS marks a package as "Return to Sender" because the address is undeliverable, they are often not actually returning the book. In many cases they're destroying it. Yeah...it stinks. So far about 65 orders from Batch 1 & 2 have received that status. We won't know the final number until a few weeks after delivery attempts are completed. If this happens to you, please email us and we'll get your address updated and figure out the next step. If you need to update your address, PLEASE use the Contact page on the website as soon as possible. One of the benefits of running the pre-order for so long is that it allowed me to estimate exactly how many extra books we'd need for damaged shipments, lost packages, address issues, and all the other chaos that comes with shipping something this massive. I set thousands of books aside specifically for situations like these. Once EVERYTHING is shipped and everyone is taken care of, if we still have inventory left, I'll put those copies in the store. However, I will not be reprinting the pre-order cover. Once these are gone, everything switches over to the bookstore cover forever... and then I'm going to sleep for approximately nine million years. Midnight Editions are moving along nicely. We have a BIG shipment heading out tomorrow. We hit a couple slower days because I ran out of signed stickers and had to switch to signing books as they ship. The Battle Worn Dust Jackets arrive next week, so we'll begin shipping those out as well. Alright, back to it. -Olan

@guileful_reed @codevsdev Dude get kilo code, remote sessions are boss

@codevsdev Just today. But only bc my laptop died and I somehow managed to code from my phone with no cursor etc etc

when was the last time you wrote a code without using AI? 🤔

@codevsdev Does a bash script or SQL migration count? If not it's a while

@tanujDE3180 Can I not choose sk hynix for the absolutely stonking bonus

You’re offered a guaranteed job tomorrow. Which company are you choosing? - OpenAI - Anthropic - Google - Meta - Microsoft - NVIDIA And why?

@caps_raunak @CapRichard3 That depends, the old system I inherited from a "real dev" was a total horror show, we are talking a SQL DB with everything varchar(255) no FK usage at all, no indexes, it was a thing of pure evil and I do not understand how it ever worked at all, not all real humans are great

@CapRichard3 AI is fast, but it still makes many mistakes. Real human work has soul and fewer errors.

Bro, I'm so fucking tired of this AI shit. You pour 8–10 years into mastering a craft late nights, brutal feedback, real scars from real failures. Then some model trained on millions of stolen data (including yours) spits out better work in 4 seconds flat. And the replies? "This is amazing Future is here" We're not progressing. We're enthusiastically building the machine that makes our entire skillset worthless and calling it innovation.

@ApexSeeker_ Too much focus on London while the rest of the country crumbles

🇯🇵 I am Japanese. I have a question for people all over the world. What do you think is the biggest waste of money your country is doing?

@ThrillaRilla369 Securityhole.com the old hacks, cracks and warez site

Anyone who surfed the early web between 1995-2009, what’s the one website you still think about?

@messedupfoods Why won't her employer pay right in the first place?

You walk into a restaurant and see this. What’s your first thought? 🤔

@FinalSpace i just saw the Ottowa book tour date that has a screening too. im just gonna throw this out here, im willing to put in the lions share of the work to make something similar happen at somewhere like HOME in Manchester UK if thats what it takes

@MayohAnthony @FinalSpace Seems I am, doing there within the 1st hour wasn't enough

@FinalSpace Missed the first but am I fuck missing the 2nd 😂 cant wait ✌️

HAPPY FINAL SPACE FRIDAY! London Day 2! Ottawa! And Salt Lake City! Have now been added to the tour! 🚀 Snag a ticket: finalspaceends.com And shipping…always shipping…in fact I need to get my booty buns back to that. ✌️ -Olan

@FinalSpace I feel maybe you'll need a full UK tour given the rate they're getting sold out, and definitely outside London

Yeah…I’ll look into a few more stops.

@FinalSpace Dude, already gone😭

@realtechspecs it kinda did only for audio, i made a video player app that sent different audio to different output devices, even bluetooth so me and my partner could watch anime in different languages, im sure i could integrate subs

@LuciousLyre @TheOldOtaku @Grummz Spotify? Though I'm not sure there lol

@TheOldOtaku @Grummz something that didn't make the world worse, I mean

PewDiePie releasing a local based LLM agent to compete with ChatGPT and OpenClaw was not on my bingo card for 2026: What is Odysseus? Local/self-hosted AI workspace — Runs on your own hardware (or via APIs if you want), no cloud dependency, no accounts, no telemetry/tracking. Includes agents — Self-evolving agents that can do real tasks like web browsing, file editing, document work, research reports, email triage/auto-replies, etc. Features — Chat interface, memory, deep research tools, image generation/editing, MCP support, galleries, libraries, and more. It’s basically his custom "ChatOS" evolved into a full productivity suite. Built because he got tired of janky self-hosting setups and giving data to big tech.

@BarnoidTM @Grummz If he's building for local and considering it something anyone should take note of he's gonna need to shoot for a 32b but he will have to beat the likes of qwen3.6 and gemma4, no small task that. Local models realistically need to target 16gb as that's affordable for most

This is great in theory, but has anyone actually tried running this LLM on commodity H/W? LLMs are extremely resource-intensive in terms of compute and memory. Unless you have a $20k rig at home, I don't expect the throughput (generated tokens/second) to be acceptable for a state-of-the-art model.

@Grummz Params? MoE? Attention systems? Benchmarks? Any actual info at all? Or reason it may be worth consideration more than any other random project other than he's a celebrity and not one known for having top tier maths or technical skills

@PhilterMusic Ooh I don't even have a table (flac nerd) but even I'm tempted

This year marks the 15th anniversary of "The Beautiful Lies". With that, the original trilogy is now available as vinyl on demand. Get them here: elasticstage.com/Philter Thank you to everyone who has been with me on this adventure so far, you are awesome!
