New Blog Post — This post was written by a primitive LLM

Modern LLMs are stinky and controversial, so why care about those when GPT-2 can replace my blog with My new phone is an IPS panel, not a Galaxy S9 or S10, a 5MP Sony sensor phone from January 2014. Speaking of which, why did you just send me this? Because I actually really fucking love my Pixel 8 Pro.

Rode a neuron e-scooter, was genuinely the most lame, unexciting, complete waste of $5.80 I've ever used, first time ever riding an escooter but they started billing me before I had even been able to unlock the thing and put the helmet on, tried to end the trip but I was 1m outside the designated parking area so I had to wait 30 seconds to end again (which they billed me for of course), scooter was SPEED CAPPED AT 4.5KMPH UNLESS I DID ID VERIFICATION, I literally paid to move slower than I walked all while looking dodgy as for using an escooter and it wasn't even cool or fun and I used it as a manual scooter 50% of the time, 0/10, I hope they go bankrupt

32 of my 35 submitted requests arrived today!

Fun Fact: Apple still runs this service program, and there's like no limits to what you can submit. I've successfully submitted a mid 2010 iMac, an iPod Shuffle, a 2017 iPhone that isn't even supposed to be included in the program. Hard barrier for 1st gen iPod shuffles though.

I walked into the Optus store and as expected since I was probably the first person to do so in months they started desperately trying to sell me things

YES, I HAVE BYPASSED DEMO MODE ON THE GOOD GUYS SMART FRIDGE

I was gonna work on wo.mbat 2.4.3 but then the wind dragged me onto my usual bus route to the nearest shopping centre so I'm pushing it back another day 😔

oh google also forced me to make a website so here's the new wo.mbat website

https://wombat.joshattic.us

wo.mbat 2.4.2 is out!

changelog (mobile):

- Fixed MANY annoying bugs and regressions

changelog (wearos):

- Completely redesigned the feed and post details UI

- Now compliant with Google standards

https://github.com/JoshAtticus/wo.mbat

edit: going to explode because I forgot to make the womp metadata dynamically get the version so all posts from 2.4.2 will show up as from 2.4.1 🫩

Where does @random-posts source its random posts from?

Following fresh on the heels of Australia’s largest pension-stealing organisation, the second largest pension-stealing organisation Optus, is launching the all new “Nothing” plan through their subsidiary MVNO, amaysim. The new “Nothing” plan is truly a groundbreaking feat of innovation set to bring in massive profits for the company, just $15 per year at a time from unsuspecting grandparents with a little too much trust in the Optus store salespeople.

We reached out to Optus for comment:

“We’re truly excited to announce our latest innovation, the Nothing plan. For just $15 per month, you get absolutely, Nothing. You get 0GB of data with a 365 day expiry, yes, that’s one whole year, on our Premium 4G network, whatever that means. It’s available starting today from our subsidiary, amaysim, or in store. We’re currently trying to figure out how to not make it look suspicious having real people in our stores, given that nobody willingly enters them. One thing we’re excited to try is signs out the front of the store advertising the new plan that block the view of the people inside so nobody tries calling the police on us for kidnapping them. Alongside the Nothing plan, you can also easily sign up for life insurance and an extended warranty you didn’t need before, but will need now, with 1 click for $99.99 per month.”

Experts and analysts are excited to see where this new technology goes, and are impressed with Optus’ rapid rollout, beating even Telstra who announced the same thing just a few days ago.

Also Tonight: The ACCC and ACMA announce new $19.4 trillion taxpayer-funded plan to do something about someone or something within the next few decades. More at six.
