Here we go!

Edit: this is the first post from the wasteof iOS app! Yessirrrrr!

If you haven’t noticed by now, I have a tendency to expect a much bigger improvement than I’m actually getting. Although I’m still getting a massive improvement each time. A 1:30 record is crazy.

Happy Thanksgiving y’all! I’m thankful for the amazing times I’ve had this year, the new friends I’ve made, and school going well. God’s been so good to me this year.

Go eat food, watch football, and be thankful!

Well, I got 21:03. I suspected I wasn’t strong enough for under 20 minutes but I still did good. Beat my personal record by 1:30. For fun, here’s a chart of my 5k times, with a projected trendline:

Edit: The graph didn’t have the right X axis. It’s fixed now.

I’m going to try to run a 5k in under 20 minutes tomorrow. Let’s do it.

Now to train an AI off of it and make a LLM that mimics both me and my entire sphere of friends and family

I figured out how to access the database of every message I’ve ever sent or received, and wow, this is crazy

Cool stats in the comments:

Let’s go y’all it’s my birthday!

When you realize that Apple supports RCS and USB-C, their devices are actually repairable now and they give out repair manuals for free, and their laptops are actually better than their desktops:

APPLE JUST ANNOUNCED SUPPORT FOR RCS

I want to say, in pretty much the last half of this year my music tastes have had a massive swing from normal rap over to Christian rap. I almost never listen to normal rap anymore. (I have listened to maybe 30 minutes of Kanye in the last 4 months, if you want proof.) So all the normal rap songs you see here are relics from the first half of the year.

I’m still working on the wasteof.money iOS app, but I kinda slowed down recently. Still going strong though.
