My posts are split between "decline and fall of western civilization" and nonsense. Fair warning: nonsense always gets the bigger reaction. Never even close. He/him.

So many people already dealing with parents/grandparents with the toxic combination of diminishing mental faculties, online radicalisation via social media and AI slop, and chatbot seduction. Unfortunately we are now all getting to see what happens when one of those cases is the president of the USA

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

The people living under repressive governments who depended on the VOA for something resembling reliable news from the outside thought something bad had happened in the US when the transmitters went down. And really? Yes, it had.

Some VOA journalist committed the unforgivable sin of asking one question to a sitting president, and it burned the questioned man up so much that he couldn't go to bed until they were completely off the air.

I'm really glad that google assistant has been replaced by google gemini on my phone, without me being asked and with no way to restore assistant. Why would I want my phone to function like it always has? "Set an alarm" / "I can't do that. Would you like to know what I can do?" Great 👍

RCA's first try at compatible color lost out to the CBS system. The early version used a separate lens for each of the color channels, and (as you can tell from the fringing on Kukla's red tunic in this 1949 B&W kinescope of the FCC demonstration) alignment was a bear.

One of the things I know about writing is this: spend it all, shoot it, play it, lose it, all, right away, every time. Do not hoard what seems good for a later place in the book or for another book; give it, give it all, give it now. The impulse to save something good for a better place later is the signal to spend it now. Something more will arise for later, something better. These things fill from behind, from beneath, like well water. Similarly, the impulse to keep to yourself what you have learned is not only shameful, it is destructive. Anything you do not give freely and abundantly becomes lost to you. You open your safe and find ashes.

All of this is dodging the part that's confusing me: What the hell's going on with the Billboard charts that the "song of the summer 2026" was released last October and hit #1 on the Hot 100 for the first time in February?

"Thiel is explicitly making this claim: Good is better than evil, but evil is better than incompetence—as defined by him."

Article link in the reply. #PeterThiel
John Mark Ockerbloom (@JMarkOckerbloom@mastodon.social):

This piece drove home to me that the idea behind Thiel's claim "if you’re evil, you’re at least competent" is part of what Christians call "the glamour of evil". "Glamour" here can be understood like in folk fantasy: an appearance that proves false once a viewer is no longer under its spell.

Because many of those Thiel supports or cites are manifestly evil *and* manifestly incompetent. And that incompetence can eventually help those who see clearly and act courageously to take them down.

If we assume the system is self-censoring to a degree because the people behind the major corporate outlets are afraid of losing access, would we get more honest coverage from them if King Baby NEVER let them back in? This is one of those hypotheticals we'll probably never get an answer for.
