Ok here we go for #NationalPoetryDay Is your favourite Fido, the gnat, the angel/angle, gay days, or the corpse and bunion? Is our best insult ‘funny beyond measure’ ‘incorrect in every way’ ‘we would rather not read a poem’ or ‘drizzle of words’?

Advice for my younger friends: if you want to encourage yourself to stay healthy and functional, to exercise and eat well... ...pick a couple of motherfuckers you really want to outlive.

Axon and Flock both make ALPRs that capture every passing vehicle regardless of any suspicion, recording location, time, license plate, color, make, model, and other characteristics. Trading one for the other “is sort of like swapping Coke for Pepsi,” EFF’s @lisafemia.bsky.social told @sfgate.com.

sfgate.com2 Bay Area cities ditch Flock, but surveillance is far from overCritics argue that Axon, a Flock rival, brings similar privacy issues.

You know, when you find out that the art you like is made by people you've learned hold views you find wholly repugnant, I don't think you need to disavow ever having enjoyed the art. It's okay to acknowledge you liked or loved that art, but are now putting it aside. That was then, this is now.

“Totalitarianism demands, in fact, the continuous alteration of the past, and in the long run probably demands a disbelief in the very existence of objective truth” —George Orwell, from Orwell on Truth

My answer is LOL ROFL (dickbrain) The terminally AI-pilled can't even *imagine* some people have *never* asked stochastic parrots to cheat at their job for them.

Albertan Canadians don’t need to be reminded, but the rest of 🇨🇦Canada does: Alberta secessionists are 🇺🇸MAGA quislings, largely of the nutbar “Christian” fundamentalist variety. 🇨🇦🙄🇨🇦

UC Berkeley Law creates new AI policy that bans AI for "conceptualizing, outlining, drafting, revising, translating, or editing any work submitted for credit" or exams because "thinking remains the sine qua non of good lawyering (and of a quality legal education)." That's what I'm talking about.

Remember: we were never given credit for being right about crypto, we were never given credit for being right about NFTs, we were never given credit for being right about the metaverse and we will never be given credit for being right about AI. Fuck 'em up anyway.

❤️‍🩹The reunion of two loyal friends after a long separation – a Ukrainian soldier and his dog. First, the dog seemed to scold him for being away so long. Then it started hugging him. I’m not crying. Something just got in my eye.

Man, I'm just fuckin' happy not to be algorithmically prodded to be enraged every time I open up social media. It's not that the people I follow here aren't enraged with the state of the world, mind you. It's that I've chosen them, and their rage is part of that deal. It's qualitatively different.

AI bros sound the same as NRA people popping up after tragedies to say guns have legit uses. Nobody asked you, everybody already knows what you think, and you're only here to yell PR for the product that you turned into your identity.

I don't know how to explain to the people who pop up when creatives complain about "AI" to say there are legit uses for it just how much they sound like someone saying "Well actually fire is used to make bread" when people are talking about an organized arson ring burning down their fucking houses
