I work IT security. I don't touch these bots. I have no use for the billionaire bad answer machines

my nuclear-grade AI hot take that’s sure to get me cancelled until kingdom come is that refusing to use AI at all is rapidly becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justice-y while actually being the complete opposite

Been screaming it for years.

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver@lastweektonight.com

This week’s main story is about how more and more white nationalists, antisemites, and Nazi sympathizers seem to be integrating into the Republican Party, how some of them are currently running for office, and how old you can be for JD Vance to consider you “a very young boy.”

But I was told that China has fully embraced AI.

Cartoon Brew@cartoonbrew.bsky.social

China’s first AI-generated theatrical feature has flopped, earning just $181,000 in its first weekend. By contrast, the scrappy ‘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...

Two more yellow coats and then all the stuff around it. Then one final pass to cover up mistakes before I do the parts under the gun rig.

Lived in multiple small rural towns in the 90s. I was the pastor's kid, so they never hit me, but they got creative and cruel.

some folks reported not being able to use certain adult-focused platforms (like onlyfans and fansly) — there was an internal miscommunication and these were accidentally added to the list of disallowed domains. this is now fixed! but you may need to refresh your app to get the update. 💙

I felt a bit vindicated by a former BioWare dev who said BioWare's mistake was not just pushing out new stories with basically same systems. YES. Stop reinventing the wheel and just give us good stories. Somehow BioWare didn't want to be the story games company, which is what it was.

I took drinking back up this year because holy shit this has been a rough time with work.

I had a guy stop me outside of a thrift shop to sign a voter petition. Normally I'm in. Asked what it's about, "Parental rights." I laughed and responded, "I moved 1200 miles from my parents, best of luck"

We went back to the midwest for the kid graduations. My parents spent their entire time phone scrolling. It's so bad, the kids (who also scroll), were making fun of my parents about it constantly. And my parents are not healthy, so just brain rot while they slowly die.

I’m not being unkind. I just love craft. When someone is passionate about a thing, I want them to take me down the rabbit hole with them. I want tangents, obsessions, and little details only they care about.

I have this idea I've been working on for a while, and fever just looked at me, "being torn apart" and without thinking I said "and forced to conform" Whelp. That just nailed it. That's the idea. I can flesh it out now.

I will never have children. I own a home and happily pay taxes to keep services running. Taxes are your buy in to society. You don't wanna pay taxes, leave.

I once picked up my ex's kindle. The paragraph opened with double dick aliens giving a train. "You know I only have one right?" Was not the right question to ask.
