Please drag this out until OpenAI's collapse kills Oracle. I don't ask for much, just the loss of several hundred billion dollars

i remember scientists saying 20 years ago that climate change-fueled wildfires would darken and poison the skies hundreds of miles away. but republicans said that was a lie, so now climate change-fueled wildfires darken and poison the skies hundreds of miles away every summer

Found that specific video, I see the "save" button enabled which is usually disabled for YT Kids videos. I'm guessing either YT or the channel pulled them once they got found out. The whole channel is ... super weird.

I definitely would’ve believed it even back then. There’s an entire setting where an Arcology (think “smart building” cranked up to 11) is taken over by the AI agent… Oh crap. That’s the next thing that’s going to end up defictionalized.

I was also thinking about this right after replying. It would have an effect on those who were stuck deep in conservative areas. It definitely helped me around that era to have contact with communities outside the ultra conservative region I lived in back in 00-06.

And of course Afghanistan… which I’m also certain ended up the way it did because of Iraq 2.0 as well.

Daniel B @danixdefcon5.bsky.social · 24/03/2026

I’m not entirely sure it would’ve helped. Popular opinion in the run up of Iraq 2.0 was that it would be like Iraq 1.0 or Afghanistan where it would be a quick and swift war with little to no casualties. I’m certain the current pushback against war comes from the mess that was Iraq 2

This is hilarious not just because Columbus never even reached the land of what is now considered the USA, but because it’s the first time I see a ‘merkin admitting that America is a continent.

Even earlier; Border Patrol and whatever the forerunner of ICE was (can’t remember) already had brownshirt like powers granted to them. A friend wrote about this back in the mid 90s.

Today in AI Is Not A Good Source For Learning About The World's Most Misunderstood Body Part, meet this ChatGPT gem. Funnily enough, we're actually going to talk about how most of this is kinda sorta right (for small values of right), as a cautionary tale about generative AI.

Screenshot of a reddit post: ChatGPT asked if I wanted a diagram of what's going on inside my pregnant belly.

A screenshot of ChatGPT's response. It is a side view of a foetus gestating in the uterus. The foetus is head-up with no umbilical cord or placenta. Behind the uterus is the rectum, which is unlabelled. Trailing down from between the rectum and spine, extending beneath the buttocks to the inner thigh is a yellow line labelled "pudendal nerve. At the front is an oval-shaped part labelled "cervix". And then we really struggle to image describe this bit. The uterus and the bladder are both attached to a single part which is long inside, then extends downwards into a penis with a single exist. This penis is labelled "rectum".

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have revealed a synthetic glycosystem -a sugar-coated polymer nanoparticle- that can BLOCK SARS-CoV-2 from infecting human cells, REDUCING infection rates by NEARLY 99%. Acting as a decoy, the molecule BINDS to the spike protein, PREVENTING it from attaching to real cells.

My sister had a similar experience at Kindergarten, but with a different spicy song in Spanish. Gloria Trevi’s “A La Madre”. The whole song is word play with “madre” meaning mother or nun but also used for cursing. My sister was going to a nun run school. You can guess how that went through!

The Golden Child was good, but also weird. It’s a serious movie and a comedy at the same time? Only watched it once as a kid; I did get to watch some parts years later but didn’t quite get it.

It’s an issue with Latin American Catholics as well. There’s this “black Pope means the end of times are near” prophecy that’s believed in across the region.

The rightwingers here in Mexico were pretty much cheering at the news of Pope Francis’ death. Catholics here come in two flavors: those that aren’t really following stuff, and hardliners. All the clergy are of the hardliner types.
