Just saw someone say their AI runs their fantasy football team and I can’t stop laughing. Like, I’m sure everyone’s doing it or something but it’s very funny to me that pretending to be a team manager was so hard that you needed to pretend to pretend to be a team manager

You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

A good fresh Star Trek take on those fake isekai title jokes

A tumblr screenshot showing a post and two reblog responses, reading:
1. "star trek would be the ideal fictional universe to get trapped in because you'd explain your situation and they'd be like yeah makes sense. no further questions. fortunately we can use the mysterious warp signature emitting from this system's icy moon to counterface with the solar radiation and slingshot you back home"
2. "I'm from a universe where your world is all a work of fiction." Benjamin Sisko, nodding. "That happened to me once."
3. "I Got Isekaid Into The Star Trek Universe And They Quickly Understood What Was Happening"

Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

“how do we win back trump voters in 2026” we don’t. we create an environment where admitting to voting for trump is so socially embarrassing as to render them completely inert. you don’t “win back” trump voters. you demoralize them into staying home. you make it a dunce cap

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

Capcom Engineers are building tools that aren't just Game Industry leading, but Tech Industry leading. And making it open source. But this will neither get coverage or apprication. Instead people will blindly fall for clickbait.

So the fastest JSON serializer for .NET now is developed by CAPCOM as part of their game engine that powers Resident Evil / Biohazard

I did not see that coming lol

https://github.com/CAPCOM-TD-OSS/REDox

They’re also doing their own memory-management work underneath this. Instances are managed in 64 KB pages, with page reference counting plus cache and GC optimizations. The goal seems to be reducing the cost of managing huge numbers of objects while improving locality and avoiding some of the fragmentation problems they’ve had before.
This also makes CAPCOM’s REDox project much more interesting.

REDox is their open-source .NET serialization/data library, with JSON, CBOR, MessagePack-style structured data handling, lazy decoding, streaming, compact token storage, etc.
At first glance it just looks like a standalone .NET library.
In context, it looks much more like the kind of infrastructure they can write and test normally in C#, then feed into this RE:Runtime / RE:C++ pipeline and ship as native engine code.

Probably a sign I need more sleep that I keep laughing at this Lego manual page. Instruction: Block. You need: Block. Step 1: Have Block.

A Lego instruction manual page. A single flat 4x2 piece alone in a grey void, somehow perfectly encapsulating the feeling of a Sunday afternoon when you've got work in the morning.

i wrote about the rule my friend and i have: we call each other to cry and scream and rend our garments in moments of agony, but at the end of every such conversation, we have to tell each other a joke www.patreon.com/raxkingisdea...

To feel pain in an appropriate moment for it—to ache with angry sympathy for a young woman's suffering, in this case—is to be seduced just a little. You know you're right to be sad and enraged. You don't want to let any of it go after you've acknowledged it. That's your sadness and rage, righteously felt. The pain bears witness and says I can't do this anymore through your mouth, but the pain won't have to suffer the consequences of not doing this anymore. You will. That's why we end our calls with two jokes no matter how much we don't feel like it. Doing so halts the seduction. Even a very grumpily delivered joke tells that pain to take a beat, please, because we're using our brains for something else right now. It's not exactly good we feel after telling these jokes, but it's not exactly unequivocally miserable, either, which is a start.

A woman existing (in public or private) is not an invitation to assault her, period. Ion care if she walked in there naked or in a nun's habit, that has no weight on where she ought to be assaulted. Bc when you ask those questions, you are saying ppl who do those things ought to be assaulted.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

I’ve been trying to think of the words to say but I’m not quite sure what I even should say. I guess at this moment I’ll just make it clear that it’s normal and natural to feel hurt or betrayed when you find out someone you trusted and saw as safe is an abuser and I hate how this keeps happening
