Rewatching Videodrome, and the line about how "soon, all of us will have special names" always makes me laugh. The where James Woods is asked if he wants a VHS tape or Betamax is a close second, but for other, less prophetic reasons

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.

If you think an artist's style looks like AI but you can scroll back through their portfolio and see them doing the same work before 2020, congrats, you're not looking at an AI grifter. You're looking at one of the original victims whose entire style AI stole.

Non-urgent beg post: I'm expecting to come up about $300 short on my credit card payment for the month. I don't expect to make that full amount in time, but everything I can make by 10/7 will go towards it to minimize interest fees. Even a little bit would help a lot ko-fi.com/fiendly

Call me paranoid, but I have the sneaking suspicion that a whole bunch of regulations/laws are going to come in soon, and this is their genius attempt at skirting them "What? 'AI'? Oh, God no, we use 'Super Intelligence', totally different thing!" And they'll get away with it, like they always do

You should hire someone to follow you with an airhorn and blast it at random times during the day. No way that can go wrong! Incidentally, I have an airhorn and a crippling blu ray addiction.

The formatting of this Beckett quote does still represent resilience and determination, just of a very different sort.

A neon light art piece of Samuel Beckett's famous quote "I can't go on. I'll go on" but spaced - it would seem inadvertently- so that it reads "I can't goon. I'll goon".

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano

Just beat Expedition 33! The Paintress was a little underwhelming as a final boss, but I guess it was more of a thematic fight than a proper challenge. Still, fun game!

Really fucking hate all these stories that are 'Check it out, there's a new release for this game!' and by 'release' they mean 'merch you don't care about'. Crazy that they found a worse form of clickbait, but here we fucking are.

Strange Harvest - it's basically The Poughkeepsie Tapes by way of creepypasta. Pleasant surprise, I've seen a few mockumentaries recently that have just outright sucked, but this one was pretty decent. Mr. Shiny looks like a dorkass member of Slipknot, however, and that took me out more than once.

Wow, Smile 2 was such an improvement on the original, it's not even funny. Still has an undercurrent of 'broken people are a danger to everyone', which I'm not a fan of, but as a whole, yeah, pretty decent.
