Alyssa: sex. Not kidding. Anytime is a good time for sex according to Alyssa Braden, but fall is so extra cozy. It almost makes you forget what a horny pervert she is! Lyla: STAB STAB STAB STAB STAB. She wants to spar in the cool air. Your charred flesh and blood are just bonuses.

Lyla would lean strongly towards cozy. Pumpkin spice latte, grudgingly ordered under a false name like Debbie or Linda. Alyssa would lean more towards spooky. Less about setting up something spooky and more about the thrill of experiencing it. She and Lyla definitely share a love of horror, though.

In the latest development among anti-trans wings of the Democratic Party, the Ohio Democratic Party is now deleting criticism from caucus members of Kaptur's anti-trans ad calling transgender people an "ideology." It appears any dissent over the ad is practically banned on caucus social media.

There can be only one: Phantasy Star IV. Okay maybe there’s several but this one stands out above them all.

The title screen of Phantasy Star: The End of the Millennium on Sega Genesis. The title is superimposed on a backdrop of two planets in space.

Concept art (probably) from Phantasy Star IV. Chaz looks concerned in the foreground while his friend/mentor Alys looks out over the horizon in the background.

A scene from Phantasy Star IV. The group is gathered at the base of Seed, a supercomputer that monitors bio-signs on the planet Motavia. Alys holds Rika by the shoulders and asserts “Ok! Let’s get going to Zio’s fort!”

A screenshot from Phantasy Star IV, inside the wreckage near Nalya. Rika operates a computer that explains this wreck is a world-ship designed to help humans escape the destruction of the planet Palma 1000 years ago. It shows an image of the world-ship as it would have appeared in its prime, with multiple glass domes showing multiple biomes.

"The largest theft of labor in human history." We done knew it. (www.404media.co/doom-loop-op...)

Executives working on AI at Microsoft and OpenAI admitted what its critics have been saying all along: Large language models are predatory pieces of technology that have been built on what a Microsoft executive called “an astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions,” and the “largest theft of labor in human history.” An internal Microsoft document said generative AI products have created a “doom loop” that is killing “the entire web.”
