This is where personalised genAI art falls flat. I think part of what motivates people to engage with art is about connecting with others. If not for connecting with the artist, but for connecting with friends, coworkers, and online communities. People bond over art, over SHARED experiences.

We have a group chat for trans people in my small city. We use it to provide ride shares, lend tools, organize events, monitor ICE, etc. Just lent a drill to a gal I've never met, for a woodworking project. The world would be a different place, if more people in more cities organized like this.

Met a polish man after buying something from him off Facebook marketplace. He & his family were moving back to Poland, saying he didn't feel safe after the racist Belfast riots. Goes to show the chilling effect from the racism and violence is very real, and will worsen NI's decades-long brain drain.

Two headlines about the same story reveal how the BBC relentlessly launders Farage's reputation, even as the corporate media steps up. In-your-face malfeasance by the national broadcaster.
A Sunday Times headline that reads "Nigel Farage secretly funded by convicted criminal"A BBC headline that reads "Farage denies rules broken after reports benefits from ally were not declared"

There are people all across Belfast helping relocate people, get them food, clothes, meds and more. You will likely never hear about them on the news. But they are many. And *they* are Belfast.

I genuinely do not understand this. How is it that everyone seems to utterly hate programming, and seemingly has fuck-all pride in their work? Sometimes as a programmer I feel like the only person who actually seems to give a shit.....

If agentic LLMs really do help democratise software development, it'll be like what Unity / Unreal did to game development When it's easier than ever to make software, it's harder than ever to stand out The market will be oversaturated, and most software mightnt turn a profit w/o runaway success

this is you. this comic is about you.
A four-panel comic by Sarah Andersen. Panel 1: An angel with closed eyes says "You have been given...". Panel 2: A large, dramatic text reads "THE GIFT OF LIFE". Panel 3: The angel, now with wide eyes, says "Nearly a century of consciousness! How will you use it?". Panel 4: A person sits hunched over at a laptop.

What I like best about the Artemis II photos is that it was taken by actual humans. An actual person had to frame it and manually adjust settings. It's their own artistic rendition of what they thought looked best at the time, something no probe, rover or unmanned spacecraft can take. it's art

If only we had an economical system that optimised for sustainability instead of infinite growth 🫠 when the market is saturated, the only move left is to cannibalise yourself

Breaks my heart to think about how Good or Alex Pretti mustve felt on election night 2024. A sinking feeling? Despair? Maybe they were told they were overreacting. Maybe they told themselves it'll not be that bad. Then just over a year later they are gunned down in the street. By Trump's goons.

I used to call X "Twitter", I guess holding onto something that used to be dear to me. But the amount of propaganda, porn, child porn, violence on X, and rampant gen AI of all of the above, often nonconsensual... X is definitely something different now. I don't understand why people stay on there.

Aside from the USA starting an illegal war that betrays their constitution, I worry about this precedent that's forming where nation states just attack the leader. Can't be good in the age of ICBMs or automated AI weaponry.
