I think my favorite part about this is that it’s a Boorman movie.

That’s a really weird movie. Structurally quite a mess!

I love the tone of the AI response, too. “No, there is no Georgia US Senate debate tonight, you fool. You absolute moron.”

I think it was Esquire’sDave Holmes who said he looks like he was drawn by Gary Trudeau.

The Rimban has been going through the temple’s archives for the upcoming 125th anniversary and found this copy of the Kyōgyōshinshō from 1922. Curious as to what the reproduction process was as this is a photographic copy of Shinran’s handwriting.

Quarterback was trying to get to the left hash mark, I think? Kickers have a preference for where they want to kick from. Of course, this only works if you have a timeout to burn after the play, which they didn’t.

- usage as a propaganda tool - an unprofitable industry except for those selling the parts powering it - inaccurate search results ruining search engines - unwelcome insertion of the tech in areas that really don't need it to appease shareholders obsessed with new shiny thing - & more!

- increased pollution/water usage - health issues for those near data centres - decline in problem solving skills - unhealthy social dependence on chatbots - paranoia as we scrutinise everything we see for it - billions of dollars spent making life worse for everyone but those on top

Gen AI has given us many things such as: - vibe coded trash uploaded daily - inflated billionaire egos - copycat slop of popular indie games - huge increase in scam techniques - absurd price spikes across hardware - mass scale theft of creative works - increase to cost of living - mass job losses

This is the exact kind of game that made listening to the callers on the Husky Honks post-game worth tuning into.

lol Utah State got a stop that had Wazzu way backed up on a 4th down but one of their idiot players drew an unsportsmanlike like resulted in an automatic first down and Wazzu immediately scored

“Ross Douthat YA fantasy novel put out by the publishing arm of the famous MAGA bishop’s ministry” is something cooked up to damage me psychologically

I converted to Catholicism six weeks before running for office. Here’s what the pope gets wrong about live-streamed executions.

I am assuming someone accidentally left this book here at the vet among the books about dogs and cats.

The old house next door received the kiss of death this morning, a temporary service mast. Demo permit still pending review. It’s going to be replace by a two-family home. Buyer paid an eye-watering amount for it, so that tracks. Shitty use of space as it is. Garage is almost as wide as the house!

Shitty garbage house with a temporary electric service mast in front of it.

used AI to personalize my Mario Kart. No more weird vehicles, we're all in Subarus now. The courses are the streets of my youth, and instead of shells we're picking up Gobstoppers. Yoshi looks like my dog. All the rest of the characters are sexy ladies who are there because they really want to be

We used to be such a beautiful country…

Alright I am turning on this white noise app’s track that is just the sound of a diesel ferry trip in an attempt to drown this woman out, I have reached my limit.

“The Covid shot is such bullshit. Do you know Neil almost didn’t order Covid shots this year?” Reassuring to hear about a pharmacist! “Did you watch the Congressional hearings about Fauci?” Here we go. Masks don’t work and Fauci used them to control people (?).

“He didn’t say all those awful things to me until he found out I stole his credit card.”

“I need to poop, is there a bathroom around here?” This is a surgery center waiting room and she is just saying whatever is coming to her mind. I am sitting on the opposite end of the room from this woman and her voice is sadly as clear as a bell. Noise canceling headphones are no match for her.

I just assumed someone at NBC finally realized that Tony is a black hole of charisma, but it would be funnier if they were like “I’m tired of this Christian guy.”

“Neil” is definitely her husband as well. Her mother is very quiet so this is an incredibly one sided conversation. She is talking about the Instagram account she made for her gift business and how it’s become successful because she has 300 followers. She asked if her mom wants to see. “No.”

100

Now we are on a foul-mouthed rant about her boss (“cuntface” is not something you normally hear in a waiting room) who might also be her husband. She said he deserved to have his credit card stolen and I am unclear if she is the one who stole it or not. “I could have stolen his Maserati.”

We’ve talked about which piece of religious jewelry her mother should buy and why she likes watching Joel Osteen. People say he’s a con artist, she says, but his words make her feel good. Plus he fills the Compaq Center so he must be doing something right. (I was surprised she called it that.)
