So, the downside is, Twitch has defaulted AITraining on stream content to on (I encourage people to turn it off) But it only turns off for certain features. Upside: Streamers now have a pipeline infect the training dataset with nonsensicalisms. Go on. 2 minutes a stream. Spout utter gibberish.

People sometimes make a catastrophe about falling property values and housing prices. Interestingly, that argument only works on people who own property. If you build a society where only certain people can afford property, people stop caring about preserving the value that you derive from it.

I did a watch and then explanation of Ghost in the Shell to a really high person today, and we ended with "Okay so the original had a plot, a conspiracy, a philosophy to unpack, and the live action was about... thats right, MONEY" The abridged script to that movie is hilarious tho

I could write up an April Fools Post, as many people pick today to lovingly craft a foray into the absurd. But let us be frank, I do this nearly everyday. So for many of you, April Fools Day is the most Absurd Day of your year. For me, it is Tuesday.

Pitch: Quark of DS9 has ground up and bottled a series of precious stones from Bajor, including an orb of the prophets. Invariably someone drinks it and brings the wormhole down on Bajor before the prophets reset the day.

So, when we opened the rolling door of our warehouse, these puppies rolled in. We asked around the neighborhood and couldn't find anything, so a coworker took them home till we could talk to animal rescue (it was too dangerous to keep them at the warehouse)

Random thought: What if the Athenians had disassembled the ship of theseus and used the pieces to build 80 new ships, would those also be ships of theseus, and could they have then been turned into floating "Gyro Stands of Theseus", and would those then be Franchisees of Theseus?

I feel like the Iine from jurassic park gets used a lot in reference to companies like OpenAI, but lets give it a different cut: "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they could actually turn a profit."
