Being upset that China is stealing the models that they trained by literally stealing the whole of human art, science and literature from the internet with no compensation for their theft is pretty fucking hilarious.

It's pretty damn impressive how much ground Mayor Mamdani has been able to cover after only nine months in office on a wide range of basic quality-of-life issues in NYC. I was reading through the numbers this morning, and they're kinda astonishing. (thread)

President Trump shared an AI-generated mockup for Space Force uniforms inspired by "Starship Troopers"—a 1997 sci-fi satire steeped in Nazi imagery. Director Paul Verhoeven previously called it a film “about fascists who aren’t aware of their fascism.” You can’t make this stuff up.

The fallacy that University leaders pushing AI are falling into is thinking that the point of undergraduate research is to find things out. It isn't. What students find out is typically already generally known. The point of undergraduate research is to learn how to find things out.

Facing federal science budget cuts, biologist Daniel Blumstein resorted to uploading marmot videos to OnlyFans to raise funds for his marmot research. However, when he uploaded his driver’s license for verification, OnlyFans informed him that his appearance didn’t match the marmots in the videos.

Trump doesn’t force people to do bad things. All he did was show people they could get away with being horrible if they really wanted to, and a lot of powerful people decided they didn’t need to pretend anymore. Especially those in influential positions who could push back but did not.

Dear Democratic politicians, Lindsey Graham deliberately chose to spend his last years making the lives of people in the US and abroad as miserable as possible. The fact that he also had that certain brand of charming southern geniality for his colleagues makes it worse, actually.

Saying we should all go back to physical media I think misses the point. I actually *like* buying games and movies digitally for a bunch of reasons. What we need is better consumer protections so the things we do buy digitally are actually owned and companies cant delete/revoke access!
