Stop reporting like this! They CLAIM these things! They CLAIM they have a super advanced new model that they can't release because it's Too Dangerous. They CONSTANTLY advertise how dangerous their product is because they are trying to sell it to people who hurt people! None of it is substantiated!

Note: multiple students have been banned from the campus for protesting against genocide. They're making a very deliberate choice to not use anywhere near that much force when responding to sexual assault

I think it’s fun that all of the core id guys are now normal charming dorky dad types (Romero, Hall, Adrian Carmack) or ontologically evil freaks (John Carmack, Sandy) with American McGee, an ardent libertarian that now lives on a boat and makes plushies, somehow straddling the line.

the brand safety panopticon has come to twitch

Streamers, wary of both AI and YouTube’s infuriatingly un-transparent hall of mirrors, are not enthused about this new development.

“Ohhh so that’s why ad revenue dropped,” longtime streamer JP "itmeJP" McDaniel said on Twitter.

“I’m genuinely worried that the sheer fact that I’m a lesbian will cause the AI to remove ads,” said Vtuber LuminusRed. “In the past I’ve tested it and confirmed that I get less ad money if I had queer-related tags on my stream like ‘lesbian,’ so I am worried this dumb AI monitoring will mean I no longer get money from ads on Twitch.”

A few years ago, Kensuke Sonomura (action director of The Furious) and Ozawa made a hardboiled detective movie called Bad City. Ozawa bleached his hair and looks like an absolute monster.

Are you fucking kidding me with this? The reason Chavez nationalized the oil industry is because of the century of corruption endemic to the industry before he nationalized it. Guess that kind of corruption was cool because it ended with the money funneling into (and coming from) Western companies.

There's a trap in getting obsessed with bad terminology, one set by industry: that we do that instead of act. Nazis also chose "socialist" in their name as false advertising propaganda to attract people from both "sides" of the left/right spectrum (in fact they invented horseshoe theory for it)...

Once you learn that not a single major US news outlet used the phrase "Hamas-ran health ministry" until after 10.17.23 you really start to see how pernicious this stuff is. Nobody really disputed that the GHM was accurate, even Israel admitted so, but that didn't matter. Anyway now it is spreading

This is, of course, why CEOs are so easily convinced AI can replace anything including human connection. They view themselves as the prime movers that make things happen by sending badly-typed e-mails, and don't want any feedback but "you're so great"

an approximate graph of a poll saying that ~80% of americans think "america would be better off if more americans worked in manufacturing" whereas ~25% believe "i would be better off if i worked in a factory." the republicans polled were slightly higher in both before somebody gets mad at me for not making this about that

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

A post from Mustafa Ali with a picture of PAC glaring at the camera with the caption “Long live the King.
Ben protected and took care of the cruiserweight brothers every week. I will never forget his kindness. I will never forget the feeling of realizing he is the absolute best all around performer I have been in the ring with. I will never forget him standing up to the machine.
I will never forget our King.
Rest easy, Ben.”

Someone was talking about PAC being stoic at meet & greets on Twitter, so it reminded me of this anecdote.

Small child in red flannel and blue jeans standing next to PAC with long hair, wearing black AEW hoodie and shorts. Both are wearing facemasks.

Nolie met PAC at a Dynamite, when AEW was still doing preshow meet and greets.

They both looked each other up and down. Then PAC stoically says “How is your day, little child?”.

When it was picture time, he plainly said “Stand with me in battle” to Nolie.

It was perfect.
