J: which cases? DOJ: page 26 of opposition. Independent Equipment Dealers v. [EPA?] 372 F3d 420, 427. Natinoal Mining v McCarthy 758 F3d 243, at 251-252. J: what's fact pattern? DOJ: [doesn't know] J: what are the facts of those 2 cases. DOJ: do not have that info. J: and 2d one? /161

My mom always refers to furniture that’s free for the taking because it’s out by the curb as “grabbage” which I still think is very clever

The most venomous responses I get on here are ~100% down to me reading something, thinking "that doesn't sound right but who knows" and then asking a clarifying question from someone who demonstrates that they put less thought into posting it than I did asking about it. eh

The original of this OpenRouter graph marks the first time that my husband has shown me an AI thing rather than the other way around, so total cultural dominance tbh

This is the funniest thing I've seen today, possibly ever

wtf how did I not know this was scheduled for my birthday. Also shit, I am drowning in good-ass games

Julian Sanchez@normative.bsky.social

This is your reminder that the Witcher III remaster launches free for everyone who owns the game at 6am Eastern tomorrow. Including the Hearts of Stone + Blood & Wine DLCs, even if you never bought them previously, which are frankly big enough to be their own full-priced game.

Obviously DOGE made this glaringly obvious in a certain way but I always feel the needs to repeat ad nauseam that your life depends on 1,000 different people working hard on hard tasks THAT YOU CAN'T EVEN UNDERSTAND WHY THEY ARE HARD let alone how to do them, and that is society basically

I would LOVE to see tech bros’ guesstimates of what shares of the population do different types of labor. Part of the infatuation with AI has to be that they can’t really imagine what most people do all day

Me: As I refine my workflows for using agents for task management, it would be convenient if there was an integrated ecosystem that could exist across my phone and my laptop. Meta Platforms, Inc.: INTRODUCING MUSE—this revol Me: I'm sure someone will get to work on it soonish, probably Apple.

It remains shocking to me every time I see the "A" at the end, as if accessibility is not an affirmative, explicit statutory mandate in multiple federal laws, beyond any nebulous policy in favor of diversity, equity, or inclusion

Wtaf is this question my university just asked me about my project?

lmaoooo drama, my husband reluctantly decided to run for union chair b/c of... someone.... otherwise being the only candidate and instead they dropped out and are now running for vice chair, so he is uncontested and might wind up with them as his vice chair

Nobody wants to engage on a Bayesian level with the dangers of the Tacky Gewgaw Maximizer

Dedekind Slut@chasmat.bsky.social

everybody is ignoring the real danger: Donald Trump could develop self-awareness and the ability to recursively self-improve, becoming more powerful at an exponential rate and turning the entire world into tacky gewgaws

okay lawyers, we have to go back to using Latin for jargon so that I can stop reading tweets like "LIKELY violates the constitution???????? you mean definitely does, ftfy"

I’m glad that all local politics is like this

robbinsdale ward 4 candidate melodie neff is giving out foot rubs in a BAR?!? this has got to be a campaign finance violation of some kind. i demand it be one

I would really like an extended explainer on why LLMs are not conscious (which I do not believe they are!) by one (1) person who has a solid grasp on theory of mind and also seems to understand how they function on a basic level.

Homosexual Urbanism is about asking, “what if you were both the exhausting boyfriend?”

DC Pierson@dcpierson.bsky.social

On this day 52 years ago, Robert A. Caro published “The Power Broker” and forever changed how exhausting boyfriends could be

Man, I forgot they decided to put him on TV. Joseph Goebbels is spinning in his grave, Leni Riefenstahl gagged in her Andrew-Ryan-esque undersea compound

60 Minutes@60minutes.bsky.social

New correspondent Ross Douthat says "no story looms larger than the latest developments in artificial intelligence." The technology and its impacts will be a major focus of 60 Minutes reporting.

so despite using DeepSeek pretty exclusively I just got my first ever 400: CONTENT error today and I am pretty sure it is because a search result in a tool message had a language selection menu that said "中文(TW) 🇹🇼"

the word i feel compelled to use is "Brechtian"

Peter@notalawyer.bsky.social

underrated part of El-Sayed’s messaging strategy seems to be shaming journalists who ask dumb questions that play into right-wing frames. you can’t answer these in a way that satisfies them, but you can make it embarrassing enough that you impose a toll on asking.
