My one wish is for everybody to understand that open source is basically digital communism and it has been so wildly successful that the entire world is fully dependent on the unpaid labor of millions of self organized workers who go way out of their way to share and this is the way of the future.

They called the cops on this 3-year-old Black boy because he was kickin the white kids' ass on the soccer field.

instead of hearing about ai more can you just punch me in the head until I pass out

"I made a machine specifically designed to convince me that it's conscious and it convinced me so it must be conscious" is the most idiotic thing I've ever heard humans say.

Anyway I'm not giving up my em-dashes. Fuck off.

I had no intention to play this game but now I do.

Some sort of... global coalition... to ensure that our limited resources are used sensibly, equitably, and sustainability. Maybe operated by working people instead of a ruling elite. A sort of... world-wide... communal... way to shape society. Now what to call it? 🤔

What's that? He's said repeatedly that he's depressed and actively suicidal because he feels like nobody loves, cares, or supports him? Oh, he's just "like that". Ignore him and leave him alone until he figures it out on his own. After all he's really unpleasant to be around when he's this sad.

Bunch of people who refuse to believe that COVID is still a problem: the Russians have invented a super plague! We’re doomed!

I don’t want to sound glib, but if a woman actually wanted to “make up a crime to ruin a man’s reputation,” they’d pick one that people actually give a shit about, like hurting a dog or something.

If you have more empathy for the box of blinky lights than you do for, say, trans people or refugees, you are frankly a bad person

20+ year dev here. First pro job in '99. Took a break ~2021 and have watched my industry dissolve into slime. This wasn't just a career, it was my greatest passion, my most enduring hobby. Now working through grief of losing a major part of my life while trying to find a new career at nearly 50. 😩

Enjoy the camps, bluesky devs!

Would love to hear the crowds at his next shows drown him out with chants of Free Palestine!

Ed Sheeran: "I don't wanna pick sides" Also Ed Sheeran:

Ed Sheeran saying "I'm in love with the shape of you" while looking at a map of Greater Israel

Kraft is the villain here but Ed Sheeran is still a little bitch. What's the point of having a squillion dollars if you are still too much of a coward to tell some dork ass landlord to eat shit?

Losing 3000 people to a single terrorist attack on 9/11: Never forget! Losing 3000 people PER DAY to COVID: Forget it and get back to work you human capital stock!

I don't think the 'cult deprogramming' argument works for public figures! If you're a regular person, listening empathically to your anti-vaxx aunt is fine. If you're a public official speaking to millions, though, the message has to be "MAHA is killing kids," not "MAHA has some good points."

The science is clear. The benefits clear. The safety profile excellent. But this is now ALL about grift and politics and polarization. Dark Age 2.0. Measles deaths reported in Pennsylvania spark fight among politicians and health officials apnews.com/article/meas...

Bluesky isn't ready for this but if you laugh at this video you are damaging your soul and you're a bad person. Consider that one of these robots might find out you laughed and put your children in Grok's custody some day. Not so funny now is it? www.youtube.com/watch?v=XgnB...

I don't trust anything Carney says or does. He's capitulated on too much, sacrificed too much, put corporate interest above working people too many times already. "Walked away"? Could just as easily be theatre, same as "elbows up". If he rolls over in 2 weeks I won't be surprised one bit.

By the way “shut up about the ongoing lettuce shitting, stop living in fear” is the next stop on the train.

Yes, I'm calling the Liberal Party of Canada evil. I'm calling Mark Carney evil. They're evil fucks who are selling out their world. They see the same stories we do. They have even more info about the horrors to come than we do. And they're pouring gas on the flames. They're malevolent & anti-human.

My greatest fear about AI is that it's an authoritarian dream come true. The more we trust it completely the easier it becomes to replace our conception of truth. Grokipedia pushing genetics like this is a clumsy sneak preview.

How does human genetics research live in the information ecosystem? Is it misused? Misrepresented? In my paper with @sramach.bsky.social, we tackle this question with 25 years of Wikipedia data, AI chatbot responses, and pages from Grokipedia www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

And for Canadians across this land, it is a kick in the teeth to call this climate bomb of a project “in the national interest”. It is in Big Oil’s interest for sure.

That said, let us take a moment to thank our Bluesky Trans and Furry Elders for freaking out Jack Dorsey so much he bolted and left us this nice social media playground, taking most of his crypto chuds with him. We thank you for your service.

I love how everybody has their own personal, on demand Audrey 2 now

All I'm saying is that in the agile era the tech industry at least wanted you to think they weren't evil, in the react era they robbed us blind, and in the AI era they are actively murdering us. Scrum not looking so bad now eh?

My favourite thing about @bsky.app , whose primary purpose is to display text, is that it frequently fails to display the text.

This is horrific but also, I'm sorry? Dr. Israel? The guy who made the collars to shock children for their entire lives is named Dr. Israel. I know for sure we don't live in a fictional universe because the writing wouldn't be this bad.

you think you're the only real person

you could have just listened to the communists several months ago

Canada (the nation of kind, friendly people and stunning wilderness) rocks. Canada (the genocidal state that is letting 25% of people starve and just committed to worsening the climate crisis) can get bent. Hooray/Fuck Canada!

Never thought I'd say this but I actually appreciate spelling/grammar errors and awkward phrasing now because it's a sign that the text was written by a human.
