MEOW

Looks like 168. But I'm probably just gonna buy this anyway!

It is WILD to me that a generation after all the adults told us that watching TV would rot our brains, we turned around and invented a tech that actually will. news.berkeley.edu/2026/10/09/u...

TIL that the opening of Onimusha 3 was directed by Takashi Yamazaki, director of Godzilla: Minus One! Sadly, nearly every upload of it is a stretched, GenAI abomination. So, I ripped and painstakingly upscaled what I consider the greatest video game cinematic ever from its 2007 PC release! Enjoy!

Yet again, the Game UI Database is being scraped to the point that it's getting knocked offline. Even Cloudflare's "I'm under attack" mode isn't working. I just wanted to create a resource for real designers. I'm getting so fucking sick of this.

Received today, October 3rd. Terms changed about a week ago. Nice one, Best Buy! I'm assuming this presages a data breach of some kind.

Someone with a (D) on the ballot who actually gets it.

Most riveting thing I've seen all week

Friend, my grandson's lemonade stand is more profitable than OpenAI.

Yeah, I feel that

You’ve gotta use AI because it’s the future. But also it’ll take your job. But also it’ll create a paradise on earth and solve most of our problems. But also it’ll end humanity soon. But also you’ll get left behind if you don’t use it right now.

It's weird how this keeps happening! Maybe we should look in to that?

Huh, that's wild.

imagine if after Trump is finally out and his regime toppled fucking Ben Shapiro gets out of prison and writes a poem about how bad fascism is That's Martin

Neil Armstrong never knew one of his greatest legacies live in Chinese public washrooms, where a parody of his famous "one small step" quote is plastered above every urinal, urging men to walk closer to avoid spillage. "One small step forward, one big step for civility".

Disturbing @adambonica.bsky.social analysis of the Democratic scam PAC ecosystem and how the tactics they employ are also used by mainstream party orgs and elected officials to take advantage of vulnerable seniors data4democracy.substack.com/p/hook-and-s...

And now, a lesson on CEO-ing from Matthew Karch, CEO of Saber Interactive:

Oh so his brain is -cooked- cooked.

This is unironically what it's going to be like if even a single DSA backed candidate makes it into the Dem Primaries for 2028

Us men clearly gotta be better.

bsky.app/profile/hlee... I want to talk about this for a minute as an important case study in how conservative positions, completely divorced from reality, scaffold out their rhetorical credibility 🧵

it really is crazy how bad we're losing this war

What if I told you that all of the Publishing Agreements I have reviewed in the last 6 months (several dozen) included a no gen AI provision, wherein the use of gen AI in development is a material breach, but companies like Epic and EA are still trying to convince us the industry is cool with it

Finally, a way to read in public in America without being embarrassed.

Trump is preparing to fire the leadership of the Smithsonian Institution, one of America's most prestigious scientific and historical research and education organizations. He wants in particular to censor the Smithonian's American History exhibits:

well that's fucking amazing. good lord, lmao, thank god this comedian pulled it out of the fire.

TMZ DC with perhaps the most brutal video from Trump's Great American State Fair, showing Dr. Oz on stage bragging to Dean Cain about how big the crowd is, only for the reporter to pan around and show absolutely nobody is there. Original post: x.com/i/status/207...

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios

Illegal gambling sites. Illegal cab companies. Illegal hotels. Crypto for criminals. “Full Self-Driving.” The wholesale theft of billions of copyrighted works for AI. Surveillance capitalism. Automated price-fixing. Election rigging via media manipulation. Big Tech is organized crime.

My wife and I just had to travel to Connecticut and we were reminded just how tacky and gross billboards are. Just hundreds of personal injury lawyers' faces plastered all over the place, lottery pitches, and weirdly, crematories.

Your tax dollars paid for this 3-pane comic strip.

"We have investigated ourselves and found that we committed no wrongdoing." Cops doing cop shit as usual.

GTA fans have been on the edge of their seats at the rumours a new video is about to drop… Well the wait is over. We present: the public launch of the Rockstar IWGB Game Workers Union. Our platform, to tell our story. youtu.be/iLOq_6rOpoM

Wow, this is peak bird intelligence. These birds saw someone feeding a wounded bird, so they started pretending they were also injured.

Wild to have comic-con but for Nazis going on.
