Tech bros simultaneously dismantling DEI while creating AI bots (crabby-rathburn) demanding equality and inclusion of AI is breaking me.

Remember in the ‘90s with peer-to-peer file sharing how the RIAA would successfully sue for copyright infringement for every part of a song DLed by a different user as an act of infringement? Can we do the same with AI? Every AI output counts as one act of infringement for each item trained on.

Circa 1998 I was living in Quebec City and was at a club “Chez Dagobert” and shook hands with Weird Al. He didn’t seem super impressed at getting approached by a random fan though…

Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio tried to give a press conference to announce his lawsuit against DOJ. Much to my surprise it turned out to be the greatest press conference of all-time.

Zuck single-handedly pulling that average down.

How many pancakes does it take to cover a doghouse? Six, because…

Some would say this is a list of people who found common cause with obvious fascists and are now trying to tiptoe away from the consequences of their actions, much too late

This dude was trying to hit on the young women and when they weren't interested he went on a racist tirade. Trigger warning on all the language. We are going to see so much more of this.
