The great thing about capitalism is that America has now shown that it’s a VERY small step from their version of the ‘free market’ to absolute corruption and kleptocracy. How long can this house of cards stand?

The funniest part is that the nvidia guy can’t quite describe how this might happen. I think it might be via the extinction route

#sipnspin Terre’s Neu Wuss Fusion - Sex on a Real Train… it’s not on YouTube but is brilliant. And the coffee and toasted pancakes I’ve just had in the makeshift front room kitchen. Have a great Sunday everyone.

Funny that Bluesky is quite possibly peaking in terms of real popularity and the ex-Twitteratis’ big idea is to make it even less accessible to normals.

Ben Collins@bencollins.bsky.social

Bluesky should go back to invites, continue aggressive bot bans, create a Craigslist-style marketplace (since you’re more likely to buy/get services from a educated or good person on here than any other social network), and market this place like a walled garden protected from enshittification.

We sacrificed music culture on an alter of ubiquitous convenience. We should have made the ritual about quality rather than the amount of blood spilled.

The Pacific Northwest is facing its worst fire season in more than 30 years. Paul Hessburg, former senior research ecologist at the U.S. Forest Service, says wildfires are caused by “accidental ignitions, dense forests, the wrong kinds of fuels on the ground [and] rapidly changing climate.”

Is this clown some Mark Zuckerberg clone? We’re doing “both sides” now? We do not need more right wing voices, we need more true voices. Bluesky may well be finished. So soon.

Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."

I’ve started to note Instagram content personalities (in the electronic music highlight niche) are using it to generate their patter. If you know AI, you know the signs, and I’ve noted one individual called out on a whole bunch of inaccuracies. Amazing how presentation style obscures it for most.

it all just sort of makes sense, now, huh. all this shit was just generated by AI and he believed it all enough to parrot it on his podcast, and his fact checking team had to clean up after him this is a really massive blow to popular science. Everything is in question now. does he realize this?

Do I want to open the replies and explore Bluesky’s deep thoughts on the philosophy of the mind? I’m guessing no. Until someone can explain the exact mechanism that gives rise to free will (or the illusion thereof) it seems safe to say that we don’t really understand consciousness.

I have thoughts

John Kricfalusi is the creator of Ren & Stimpy (which OP’s account is dedicated to). He’s an amazing artist and I suspect he loathes AI slop, but I think at some point he was shown to be a real prick as well. This is a sample of his work:

I don’t do sports much but this is borderline Pynchon-ish. Let me guess, Bobb Berge and Berg are on England’s team and O’Reilly is with the Northmen?

I see a lot of mid (or just bad) poetry posted here. Well here’s some good poetry. This one touched me. #PoetrySky

Patriot Front, a white nationalist group that MAGA influencers have insisted is a FBI-orchestrated hoax group meant to smear conservatives, showed up in the hundreds today in DC for the 4th. Their biggest showing in a hot minute.
