correct states further down the path of autocracy than us have had those autocracies overthrown by sufficiently large voting numbers recently we can do it here too

The US is not about to have a free and fair election. The state has put its thumb on the scale to favor the ruling party in multiple ways. It's a mostly free, somewhat unfair election. But still one where the ruling party can be overwhelmed by numbers. Hence the term "competitive authoritarianism."

NEW: I spoke with current and former EA employees to understand how the latest layoff round played out and the realities of daily life at the U.S. publisher. The short version? EA is controlled by an executive class that "cannot fail, only be failed." Workers, then, will always pay the price.

i'm going to be honest, i don't think all those posts where things start out being about one subject and end up being about Winston from Overwatch are that funny.

North Mist Studios is a collection of former BioWare video game developers, including senior narrative team members behind the Mass Effect and Dragon Age series. Now, we're working on a brand new title: The Concierge, a story of Canadian Assassins in a Spy-Thriller Office Drama.

being honest I think people are not being cynical enough about this. ai guys are basically the scummy 80s guy from futurama but they dress like mark zuckerberg. do you really think they are above doing a human laundered DDOS of a media company that reports critically on them? how big a rube are you?

In the last few weeks i've been bombarded with emails from people who have minor tech support problems. ChatGPT is telling them to email me, writing their emails, and compiling "evidence packets" after convincing them they have stumbled on a major story: www.404media.co/chatgpt-keep...

when i was 7, my family bought a van from a place called "just buses", they had a sticker on the back that said that in kind of a sexy cursive font. i peeled it off, rearranged the letters and forgot about it. nobody noticed. finally my mum goes "wait since when the hell has our van said Lust Bus"

the real reason generative AI sucks is that the people who make the shitty gangster looney tunes/dragon ball z/batmanverse boomer edgy kitsch "motivational" statement photoshops are all out of business now
