I need to know how @hacksawjenny.rip feels about the resident evil movie because I can only make my partner sit through so many movies in a year.

You think we could convince a vain old man or two to kick off and accept death if we implied they'd get as much attention as beloved figures have this week?

Reliance on artificial-intelligence tools degrades the abilities of physicians and software engineers, studies show.

one thing that's very funny about building a new pc is that there is 100% a secret 1d100 "how fucking cursed is this pc" roll that happens whose result is hidden, and can literally never be changed, even if you literally swap out every part Ship of Theseus style, it will ALWAYS be that cursed.

There’s a real struggle between making society more tolerable, respectful and sensitive to the needs and lived experiences of its citizens AND ALSO distress is an inevitable part of the human experience and distress tolerance is the key to preventing it from ruining your life

Once you start noticing how the incapacity to handle discomfort affects how people live their lives it's actually pretty shocking how it ruins pretty much every conceivable aspect of existence. Interpersonal relationships, romantic and platonic. Career and education opportunities. Your politics Your willingness to go anywhere. The kind of food you eat. The kind of art you expose yourself to and your ability to read it. It's never just one thing, it touches everything, and once you notice it it's like suddenly being able to see germs or something. Just this horrific catastrophe people look at you askance for screaming about. As I grow older and see what became of my friends and peers who could not learn to handle discomfort, the more I'm like. This is a genuine societal issue

Increasing my discomfort tolerance has also been one of the greatest assets to improving my mental health.

One underappreciated thing I miss about the pre-'smart' tech era was enjoying anthropomorphizing tech and speaking of it as if it was witchcraft. 'The printer can sense your desperation' hits a lot different before there was a capricious chatbot in everything.

Except from linked Ed Zitron Article: 

"Being “first” — on the “frontier” one might say — is something that people crave when they can’t find something within, and it’s exactly the fuel that grifters crave, because LLMs are constantly humming with the sense that they’re about to do something new, even though they’re mathematically restricted to repeating other actions."Gif of Simpsons where a young boy cries 'stop, stop! He's already dead!'

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.

Córy Doctorow with another verbal bullseye: pluralistic.net/2026/01/13/n...
I'm sorry. As a technology writer, I'm supposed to be telling you that this bet will some day pay off, because one day we will have shoveled so many words into the word-guessing program that it wakes up and learns how to actually do the jobs it is failing spectacularly at today. This is a proposition akin to the idea that if we keep breeding horses to run faster and faster, one of them will give birth to a locomotive. Humans possess intelligence, and machines do not. The difference between a human and a word-guessing program isn't how many words the human knows.

I'm sorry. I know that when we talk about "digital sovereignty," we're obliged to talk about how we can build more data-centres that we can fill up with money-losing chips from American silicon monopolists in the hopes of destroying as many jobs as possible while blowing through our clean energy goals and enshittifying as much of our potable water as possible.

Private property is insane, frankly. Personal property (a home, possessions, transportation if required, etc) is one thing but owning land you dont live on or machines you don't use to work is always parasitic.

After much research and development I have made an offline version of ChatGPT. Now you can save water and electricity while navel-gazing, and carry one of the world's most powerfully annoying AI chatbots in your pocket.
Photo of a magic 8 ball with a 'goatse' version of the OpenAI logo and the words ChatGPT on it, next to a white box that says "ChatGPT offline version". Inset are photos of the 8-ball responses such as "That's a great question", "You're 1000% right" and "Too many requests try again later" and then another photo from the back of the box of a holographic authenticity sticker that says FAKE.
