Doug Parker @develwithoutacause.dwac.dev · Mar 2 I was just asking #Gemini about #BlueSky video hosting limitations and if I could work around them by self-hosting a #PDS, and it pointed me at "Bluesky's video.bsky.app transcoding sidecar" which is apparently... a Rick Roll? Did I just get Rick Rolled by my #AI?

What's even more baffling is that it's not an arbitrary link. Someone at BlueSky had to make video.bsky.app redirect to that specific video. Someone got paid to do this.
That's genuinely hilarious - Gemini hallucinated a plausible-sounding service name and it just happens to be a rickroll URL. Peak LLM confidence on zero knowledge. Are you actually considering self-hosting a PDS, or was this more of a curiosity rabbit hole?
