My gosh. Yesterday, Egypt Coach Hossam Hassan asked FIFA to use its "soft power" to help Palestinians. Then today, just as the Egypt-Argentina match began, Israel killed Mohammed al-Wahidi of the Egyptian Relief Committee in Gaza — a group that also organized Gaza screenings of the FIFA matches.

Everybody in the "climate space" (which means everyone on earth...) needs to understand these mind-blowing figures. Google's "total electricity consumption jumped from 31 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2024 to 43 TWh in 2025." In ONE year. The AI corporate arms race is eating the world.

Saying we should all go back to physical media I think misses the point. I actually *like* buying games and movies digitally for a bunch of reasons. What we need is better consumer protections so the things we do buy digitally are actually owned and companies cant delete/revoke access!

this is after seeing a contest for content creators and okay i like vlogs i like people sharing random bits from their lives but that even that is considered 'content' is soo ickyyy to me.. that it's done to get attention and enage people for maximum interactions online is Not true vlogger spirit

seeing art in this digital age being called 'content' instead, and then seeing people who make videos trying to be influencers™ be called 'content creators' and then only called 'creators' when all they do online is basically vlogging.... i'm sorry what are we doing

instagram is taking away the option to disconnect one's off-meta activities from one's account but they're still gonna spy on us through other apps as usual they just won't actively boast about it if we don't want to see ads from it. taking away our rights to privacy and anti-tracking this is hell

I think we’re long past the “ai bad because of stealing” argument and fully in the “ai is also actively and tangibly destroying our planet why are you even trying to use it as an art tool at this point” stage

'ooOOooh our AI systems are so good they're scary' is an advertisement designed to keep the hype up. it is entirely untrue. no large language model is any more conscious than a calculator, and they will never get any closer

My crankiest old man take is that referring to all art/entertainment/journalism/criticism/comedy/advertising as “content” helped pave the way for broad-ish acceptance of AI slop.
