I've never ceased to be amazed at all the beautiful colors of my floppies. And some shades I have only 5 of, like the pink in this one, or 1000, like the yellow ones. I'm so grateful for the disks people donate. If you have some, please contact me!

as fun as it is to riff on all the silliest bits of that self driving car post, the conflation of “it will be sentient” with “it will do exactly what you tell it to” as a too-commonly-held sentiment (extending even beyond AI considerations) should be deeply concerning

oh no wondering exactly how many pro-AI types think “sentient” means “does what i say when i tell it to” and if that’s why so many think that computer programs are more people than human beings are oh no i hate this

Mistigram: this creepy little skeletal pirate dude was adapted to #ANSIart by DW of Dark Systems BBS, and we included it as an infofile illustration in the spooky MIST1022 artpack collection released four years ago this month.
