This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

Very puzzling that this poll doesn’t include Ireland, considering how affected we were by Brexit and that the EU basically gave us everything we asked for. (For which there will be a price to pay at some point, but still…)

This raises an interesting point: in some future UI the majority will probably accept the Orange order marching around their own areas (to their heart’s content), but will not put up with behaviour like we’ve seen from the Portadown Lodge recently. No Means No doesn’t just apply to sex.

A friend has Covid right now. They have lost their sense of smell and they're having cognitive problems. This hit me today, as it often does: we made, and continue to make, a huge collective mistake in allowing a virus that impacts the brain to transmit unmitigated globally.

I never understood why people do this. All it does is add motivation to the other team. The South African rugby coach used to be famous for this, and it backfired on him more than once.

I was just starting to be able to support myself with my erotica and nonfiction sex-ed books when they disappeared from view on Amazon, FB, and search engines. Now almost *three dozen* of those books are in the Anthropic settlement because the same people who disappeared them stole them.

The rush to speculate that asylum seekers are responsible for every crime in the news is a sort of opportunistic informational terrorism. Until it’s disproved it stokes fear and hatred. When it is disproved there are no adverse consequences and they know that they only have to be lucky once.

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.
