Google earth has updated its satellite images of Gaza. The destruction is almost incomprehensible.

Can someone hack Townfall and turn all the monsters off? I just want to explore a grim seaside town in peace.

As Order of the Sinking Star is coming out next month, in advance of review coverage coming in I wanted to add one thing to my last statement about the game: bsky.app/profile/drak... (note: at that time I didn’t have a separate personal account)

It’s not what Emily means at all but I’m now very enthused about the idea of a TTRPG archive printed on big scrolls of true vellum like British acts of parliament.

Just because the royal family isn't fictional doesn't mean it can't still have a cursed amulet.

This nasty little compilation of Trumpian fascist distractions exists more to rile people up than to persuade anyone of anything - nobody is going to be radicalised by a horrid take on Snake where you capture migrants. But nonetheless, people shouldn't be blind to gaming's propagandist potential:

The Trump White House’s fetish for gamer culture has moved up a level with new arcade

A string of distractions on the US government’s own website invite you to catch pixelated migrants – showing gaming’s potential to be nastily weaponised

Get the Pro's in, for your DIY that is, not graphic design the computer will handle that and defnitely won't make your business look like a themed hitman from The Warriors universe.

DO NOT DIY, GET THE PRO'S IN.

The fallout from the collapse of this glacier - a torrent of mud surging down the valley - killed hundreds of people. Gone, in a flash. Those people were wiped out by anthropogenic climate change. Our governments are simply not responding quickly enough to this disaster which is already upon us.

Foolishly exposed myself to about 5 minutes of an AI movie served to me as a YouTube ad whilst I tried to work out what it was selling me. This is apparently the best AI film yet, bad Cyberpunk 2077 fan fiction with an aesthetic I can only describe as moist.

Hey, if you know Blackpool or care about Blackpool etc, do you mind sending rude messages to Visit Blackpool about the AI slop display they're planning to put up as part of the Illuminations this year? This is especially infuriating because Blackpool's trying to become more of a town for artists

'The Mowing-Devil', printed in 1678. It recounts, as fact, an alleged incident in #Hertfordshire. A farmer saw a fiery light over his oat field one night, and then found it had been mysteriously mowed. The illustration encouraged some to believe it depicts the first Crop Circle. #WyrdWednesday

The cover of the 1678 pamphlet 'The Mowing-Devil, Or, strange NEWS out of Hart-fordshire. There follows lines of text outlining the incident and then a woodcut of a devilish creature with a scythe, which has cut concentric ovals in a field. Some of these lines might depict flattened stalks or flames.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful
