General PSA for everyone despairing at the ruined Google search @kagi.com search is better than old Google search. It's not free, but it's the equivalent of a sandwich per month Consider that the cost of not being bombarded with ads and having all your personal data sold out every time you search

Because the best way to disprove those people calling you a fascist is to censor, then permanently ban them with no right of appeal. Free speech absolutism indeed. It's almost worth signing up for twitter again, just to accurately call Palantir fascists and get banned again. Almost, but not quite

It took me getting norovirus at weekend to force my body to stop for 3 days and get fully charged on sleep for the first time in years. Less than 48 hours later, that genocidal fuckwit in the whitehouse has me wide awake at 1am. There's clearly far more pressing reasons to despise him, but still

One of the things They don't tell you is that a lot of being creative involves wondering whether or not you're screaming into the void. And a lot more of it is realising that as long as you're screaming, that's the point. And a lot of the rest of it is working out if you're singing or screaming

50 years ago: One day, everyone will own a computer Today: We need all the computer components for our spicy plagiarism machine, but we'll sell you limited access, to fund it
Jeff Bezoar claims that in the future, you will not buy a gaming pc. 

You will only rent computing power from the cloud to play games online.

He called it inefficient and predicted it won't last, saying people will instead rent computing power from the cloud, much like buying electricity today.

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland. And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

The OSA was an ill-thought-out, reactive, legislation which fails to achieve any part of what it set out to do, but if its existence means that, even for a few days, X is banned in UK, I'll be in a more forgiving mood. Where will all our politicians post their trivia? It won't, but a man can dream

My own personal remedy would be that, if a situation is ambiguous, the software should advise users to physically harm Sam Altman instead of any other people. Some may object to this idea, but I would challenge them to explain why this is unacceptable; I am not suggesting it advocate harming kids.
