mastodon 4.7.3Forever curious, learning and unlearning. Currently studying: JA, NL. Speaking: DE, EN, IS.
I'm in remission from a heavy load of traumatic flashbacks, autistic burnout, cancer, and gender dysphoria. Here to discover the world and my place in it. Know these for sure: Gay, asexual, female, plural.
While the person responsible still felt the need to add an "I do think LLMs are inevitable" disclaimer - sigh - Flathub changes its guidelines to ban vibe-coded software.

When I put Japanese search terms into the YouTube search bar I still get videos from my subscribed channels randomly cluttering up the results, but now with the video titles translated to Japanese!
Electrolytes say "trans rights" (also for cis people, we're inclusive like that)
Clicking on every recommended video on my YouTube homepage of a new music release by a Japanese band that nobody including me has ever heard of that probably formed last month and has 3000 views.
So far I'm 5/5 in discovering good music. Now the algorithm has learned and keeps showing me even more stuff. They all have weird names like "Siberian Husky", "Unfair Rule" or 海風邪 ("Ocean Sneeze") and the exact same website using the same template. And it's a coin toss whether you can buy the album.
Deutsche Bahn pivoting to AI and vibe coding means that now some trains that run don't appear in the database - and the problem has been known for weeks to the point where there's announcements in the trains that the online information is incorrect - and the fix is STILL taking additional weeks.
Now I got an email that I should replan my trip and I had to phone the train operator on their service hotline to confirm that the train DB claims is cancelled is in fact running as scheduled.
Dined at some cheap Asian place with "authentic Korean and Japanese food" last week. They had an AI-generated ramen poster on their wall with text written in puke-ese.
It's 2026 and acquiring older albums by Japanese bands is so difficult that I just updated Windows on my old laptop, installed iTunes for the first time in probably 15 years, created an Apple account (which I didn't have) and bought some MP3s there.
Why the fuck is the iTunes store not just a web store? That'd be too convenient, huh?
