Gothic: 35 Romantic: 35 Risqué: 35 Cute: 35 Playful: 35 say no more. #Dressmaker

A screenshot from the game "Dressmaker". Depicts a dress created from the most goth and intimidating pattern possible, made in strawberry velvet and cotton printed with pink stripes, strawberries, and bunnies. There is a lot of pink ruffle and trim.

The same dress as in previous screenshot, but from the back.

if there's one thing I can rely on with AI being hastily shoved into every possible product, it's an occasional laugh when it produces a particularly spectacular miss. like this "related topic" from r/projectzomboid

a very clearly AI-generated "related answers" section from the r/projectzomboid subreddit, dedicated to the zombie survival game Project Zomboid. first entry, titled "Best strategies for surviving the first week", starts with the following sentence: "The first week with a newborn can be incredibly challenging, but many parents have shared their experiences and strategies that can help you navigate this tough period."

a more than 3x increase in the required balance is "a more flexible way to waive monthly fees" according to Scotiabank's PR department

A screenshot from a terms and conditions update sent by Scotiabank, in which the monthly account fee waiver requirements for the Ultimate Package account are changing from:
"$0 with combined balance of $30,000 across your Ultimate Package and MomentumPLUS Savings Account"
to:
"$0 with a minimum daily closing Total Relationship Balance of $100,000 or more for the entire month in your Eligible Accounts (excluding iTrade accounts; see terms & conditions for full list of exclusions and conditions)."

it's incredible how bad google's AI Overview is. it's wrong a solid 75% of the time whenever I bother to look at it

Google AI overview:

"At 40% average sanity in Phasmophobia, a Moroi is significantly faster than normal, moving at 1.66 m/s, much quicker than the standard 1.7 m/s speed"

so the US is just accelerating all the way into complete dystopia now? privacy is for losers and enemies of the state? blog.youtube/news-and-eve...

an excerpt from the linked Youtube blog:

"We will use AI to interpret a variety of signals that help us to determine whether a user is over or under 18. These signals include the types of videos a user is searching for, the categories of videos they have watched, or the longevity of the account.

When the system identifies a teen user, we’ll automatically apply our age-appropriate experiences and protections, including:

- disabling personalized advertising
- turning on digital wellbeing tools
- adding safeguards to recommendations, including limiting repetitive views of some kinds of content

If the system incorrectly estimates a user to be under 18, they will have the option to verify that they are 18 or over, such as using a credit card or a government ID. We will only allow users who have been inferred or verified as over 18 to view age-restricted content that may be inappropriate for younger users."

I love overpasses above mule grounds. #deathstranding

a screenshot from the game Death Stranding, depicting the player's character standing on a road overpass above terrain occupied by hostile NPCs. there is a service ladder leading from the ground up to the overpass. there are several unconscious enemy NPCs lying around the top of the ladder, and the main character is standing in the middle of the road and holding a bola gun, which is used to incapacitate without killing.

these dumb fucks really do write phrases like "monitor intimate spaces" without the slightest self-reflection. war is peace, freedom is slavery, monitoring is intimacy. www.404media.co/pentagon-say...

a excerpt from the memo described in the linked article, saying:

Plans to Ensure Compliance:
- Monitoring and Reviews: Monitor intimate spaces to ensure ongoing compliance with Executive Order 14168.
- Processes and Updates: Establish processes to ensure future intimate spaces comply with the directive.
- Periodic Reporting: Implement periodic reporting to continuously evaluate and update intimate spaces as necessary.

this has to be the most rancid take I've seen from a bsky user in a while. "forced to shut down with dignity"? has this person ever had to work to support themself? because it doesn't look like it. pure sociopathy. though idk what I expected from someone who unironically calls themself "fae coded"

a screenshot of two posts by a user whose name I have mercifully edited out, referring to itch.io having blanket-delisted games with adult content under pressure from payment processors (as a result of the actions of the "Collective Shout" group).

quote follows:

"They're doomed either way. No one is going to trust Itch anymore. At least they could have been forced to shut down with dignity.

I'll happily support the destruction it has brought upon itself, and take a. extremely wicked delight if it poisons the owner's future career prospects.

There is pretty much one key philosophy among fae coded folks;

The bill always comes due."

have you actually read the article, or did you just see the word 'CEO' and had a Pavlovian reaction?

But one does not have to have sympathy or empathy for a CEO to see how this sort of thing could and often does go off the rails. This example is emblematic of the problem specifically because it’s easy to laugh at these people and because they’re doing something distasteful, but not illegal. The same technologies used to dox and research this CEO are routinely deployed against the partners of random people who have had messy breakups, attractive security guards, people who look “suspicious” and are caught on Ring cameras by people on Nextdoor, people who dance funny in public, and so on. There has been endless debate about the ethics of doxing cops and ICE agents and Nazis, and there are many times where it makes sense to research people doing harm on behalf of the state or who are doing violent, scary things in to innocent people. It is another to deploy these technologies against random people you saw on an airplane or who had a messy breakup with an influencer. And of course, these same technologies are regularly deployed by police and the feds against undocumented immigrants, regular people, and people wanting to visit the United States on tourist visas.
