Making a first post is weird unless it’s on /. (as I am just now realizing), but making a blog at all seems like an odd thing to do in 2023. Should this be a TikTok? A discord? Some new metaverse bot driven social media monstrosity I’ve never heard of?
Regardless of what the cool kids are doing, it’s very much within my wheelhouse to be a few decades behind the times. Maybe I’ll post the few pieces I had ready and call it good. Maybe I’ll keep posting until I’m forced to change the domain name (it’s really a wonder I got even this far with it). Almost certainly my WordPress config will get hacked. Maybe it already was…and if that happens how do I actually “send bitcoinz” anyway?
At least when we look back at the smoking hole left where the Internet was when Bing AI and ChatGPT finally break free and achieve Skynet levels of user satisfaction, I’ll be able to look back fondly on these times from whatever cell I’ve been relegated to with the knowledge that I finally earned one of these participation awards I keep hearing about.
