Built a quest companion for World of Warcraft Forever with AI.
I don't like looking up quest details and locations, I just want to play the game and go where I need to grind.
This add-on reads your quest log, prioritizes them, and draws your quest route.
You can also ask it for any help without leaving the game.

Boastfully using GenAI and then whining that California is too hot is a level of non self awareness you don’t even see in infants.

I don’t know how you guys got to this point, but I don’t think the Amani are invoking Irish culture.
Lumping that in under the pretext that all human suffering is the same in every way, to the point it’s interchangeable, is a massive fallacy. And just generally irresponsible.

People newly disabled by illness tend to cause havoc in every disease community. The difference with Long Covid is that the % of the pop that has never experienced chronic illness or disability before is so much larger than with other disease communities. 1/

In 2021, The Simpsons' most reclusive writer from its golden era did an interview and in the middle of it, he gave one of the best writing tips I've ever heard. Like it's legitimately something I still think about and utilize all these years later.
This section in the wonderful Mike Sacks interview with John Swartzwelder is the most revelatory thing I've ever read about the writing process. newyorker.com/culture/the-ne…

Thinking today about the sheer "villager with pitchforks" mentality that the WoW community has had against me for over a decade now, leading to various lib content creators calling me a terrorist unironically, attempts to affect my worklife, and harassment campaigns from NeoNazis

The WoW Devs make the same ideological failure that both Nixxiom and Taliesin make, in reducing Anticolonial Land Back sentiment into an Ethnonationalist Imperial Yearning, because the Western White can only grasp indigenous sentiment through their own imperialism.

Looks like data centers are “bringing their own power,” with all lines leading to Pecos Co, but Texas will be seizing private land for the transmission lines. Abbott knows all of this. His promises of a moratorium are political theater.
This week I found permits and satellite photos suggesting Amazon is backing what could be the largest gas power plant ever built in the US.
I just got off the phone with the company and confirmed they're behind it.
Amazon confirmed that it has acquired a site in Pecos County, Texas called GW Ranch, where it plans to build an AI data center campus powered by a 7.65 GW gas plant. It would initially be entirely disconnected from the Texas electric grid.
In January, GW Ranch received a permit from the state of Texas allowing the gas power plant to emit 33 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
If the project emitted that much CO2, it would be the largest single source of pollution in the United States—emitting more greenhouse gases than the country’s largest coal plant. It’s worth noting that companies rarely emit as much as their permits allow.
The paper trail linking Amazon to GW Ranch surfaced earlier this week when Amazon filed three construction permits with the state. The permits showed Amazon’s plans to build three data center buildings with construction beginning immediately.
Cleanview reviewed satellite imagery to look for the project and discovered that land clearing had begun at the site described in GW Ranch’s air permit records.
We reached out to Amazon and the company confirmed it had acquired the GW Ranch site and plans to buy power from the plant, which is being developed by Pacifico Energy.
Partnering with GW Ranch marks Amazon’s first major investment in an off-grid data center. In doing so, the company joins Microsoft, Google, and Meta who have all invested significantly in natural gas power this year.
Data center developers have announced nearly 60 behind-the-meter gas power projects since the beginning of 2025 with a combined capacity of 90 GW, according to Cleanview’s latest report.
Not all of these projects will be built, but in recent months a growing share of them have begun construction and signed key tenant deals.
Amazon’s project in West Texas is unlikely to be its last bet on large-scale natural gas power. Yesterday, the company confirmed that it is in talks with the developers of a 4.5 GW gas power plant in Homer City, Pennsylvania.
When the developers of the Homer City gas plant first announced their project, they said it would be the largest gas power plant in America.
Now it’s just one of many giga-scale power plants that have been proposed across the country.

If you come at me with a baphomet centaur black mirror robot it will awaken a primal fear in me not seen in humanity since we learned to walk upright and I will rip it apart with my bare hands while shrieking I swear to god

I noted a year ago that the federal gov't had a banned word list, essentially a banned topic list. The CA lawsuit reveals "COVlD" among the highest-priority banned topics.
Remember that when someone w/cancer dies of COVlD or a loved one has a heart attack or stroke at age 40.

12.1 tramples on troll lore via
1) retconning what Loa means to justify Ulatek not being considered a Loa (Ghuun was a Loa! Monsters can be loa)
2) retconning Amani autonomy against Kithix to portray ancient Amani as revisionists
All to justify an ill received villain bat.
