jess m. β˜•πŸ‚@jametc.bsky.social

so I've decided to try something....... little commissions for annotated draw-overs, similar to the revisions a director might make, to help with anatomy, design, difficult poses, or anything else, ranging from just a single image to a longform timelapse video. coming very soon πŸ‘€

geez the news is going crazy tonight an ISP in Japan is telling users to shut off their computers rn after ransomware attackers plan to hack its customers' PCs, Kushner ordered the hit on Khashoggi, elon almost smashed a starlink satellite into a NATO one to disable finland from helping ukraine🀯

anthropic's exploding lol it went public, we find out the company's debts are like $650 billion dollars. It's valuation was based on like a ton of IOUs. a week ago those IOU holders were selling them off. in china right now, the bubble is very much popping and $450 billion vanished overnight. hm

selling the IOUs that anthropic has given various companies isn't a good sign, it means that those companies think the IOUs likely won't be repaid and so they're selling them to at least recoup SOMETHING before they're worthless. I mean, why sell IOUs if they're good? especially from anthropic?

man, I hate capitalism lol. the more you learn about capitalism, finance, stocks, trading, values whatever, you realize it's just the biggest fucking gambling scam pachinko game ever

China’s first AI-generated theatrical feature has flopped, earning just $181,000 in its first weekend. By contrast, the scrappy β€˜Niu Lai’ turned its crude animation into a viral attraction, grossing nearly $10 million a couple of months ago. www.cartoonbrew.com/box-office-r...

sometimes I read these articles just to remind myself that men are not lonely ENOUGH why do so many guys have this weird fucking conqueror entitlement mentality where they want nothing more than to own a woman and then the moment they do toss her aside because it isn't fun to own, just to conquer?

NEW COLUMN: His girlfriend is great… but he’s just not that into her. When they broke up, the only thing he wanted was to get back together. What’s going on? ASK DR. NERDLOVE: I Don’t Want To Be In A Relationship, But I Don’t Want To Break Up Either!

I click on these to be like "it can't possibly be as bad as this sounds, right?" and it always is like it's so clear that this guy's entire deal is that he loves to "win" and get women to prove to himself that he can and is a boss with BDE and that's womens' entire purpose to him lol

re: the elon and JFK jr comments today the more these people see heinous statements go completely unpunished and unconfronted, the increasingly fucked up their statements will become. It's the same tried and tested groomer pipeline: every time you do a little worse, pushing a little farther

the shit they've said today is so fucking far beyond the pale that their careers should be completely fucking over today. They should be grilled by the media for the next WEEK continuously about what they've said. Every mention of them should be prefaced with it, like they do for hasan piker

you are alarmed reading this shit that would not even a year ago completely end someone's career if they were anybody else, but I guarantee you in a year if nothing is done these people will just openly be praising hitler, and directly begging the public to kill because they'll be pardoned

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

a while back, AI used to attach markers to whatever it shat out so that it wouldn't eat its own shit. Then artists began incorporating that into their own work so the AI would pass it over, and so to combat this, companies simply removed that marker so it's BEEN training on its own shit for ages now

Pretty grim footnote to West's career that he ended up serving the richest man in the world's successful attempt to restore white nationalism to the US government.

It's weird seeing AI bubbles across the world begin to collapse in real-time because AI continually needs more input to function, every time it's used its trained and becomes shittier, but nobody's writing their own code now, so it's a death spiral for everyone who needs claude to work

View full thread

-algorithm that tracks trends, and has no clue what reality or context is, that training just gets more and more and more insular and contradicting if there's no new data and its associations start to break down. You're already seeing it happen, they need more data or it all starts to dissolve

but, since more data means more crunching and computing it requires more energy, more water, more datacenters, and all while the quality goes down and the costs go up, the only people who are paying for this are people trying to justify their investment, like selling MLM tupperware you bought lol

like I seriously don't think people understand how this shit works, and if they do they're hoping we don't every time you use AI, you train it. that's why it's been free or cheap up until recently despite it's insane cost, they need that volume of training input. But since AI is just a sorting-

trying to repost anything immediately crashes the entire fucking tab lol why do bsky staff not realize how bad their vibecoding is fucking this site? I've been on here for years and it has never been as bad as it has been in the last few months

R.I.P. to Eric Bauza Out of all the actors who voiced the rabbit, you were the one who came the closest to Mel's original voice. You should've been around for 40 more years to voice him.

BC might've suffered a big loss but I feel like it's been nothing but wins lately otherwise, the only thing that could make this october better is for THE BIG DEATH honestly

can the guy who travelled to china to have that woman pray over him and smash a talisman with bolsonaro's name written on it with a sandal just go back real fast and do the same for trump, if that's okay. thanks

these are all scams, I think I can confidently assume that by boosting the odds, more people will make safe bets, and then when it plummets the people who took the "risky" bets get a massive payout I feel like this is kinda.... rote? this is how it always goes with betting

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

stares wistfully into the sky maybe we should shut down the internet, maybe the php thing really should mean we should shut it all down. Shut the entire thing down for... a week. a month maybe. maybe forever

rolling back regulations, building pipelines, giving everything to fucking landlords in a massive housing crisis. So many happy rich people excited to fuck people over as much as possible for the next half a decade. I'm really tired. I'm going to be so fucking old when this is over

Doerkson in his speech: We will be the catalyst and you will be the engine. I believe in being in investment back to BC. I believe in cutting red tape . We will invest in energy.” He says he will focus on Private property rights. And reiterated his promise for no new taxes.
