If a person has a big platform, they have a responsibility to behave in a way that minimizes the harm that platform can do. They need to disavow the bad behavior when they see it, and not participate. Not doing so is irresponsible and harmful.

i think one big factor (among many) as to why AI has had such a foothold in coding spaces is because the majority of people dont consider programming to be art

Got some fun bulbs and shades for the inherited lamps and put em with our vinyl setup ^_^

A photo of a vintage vinyl listening setup. There is a technics turntable and some Yamaha and pioneer gear sitting on a wicker table. To the left and right are two pivot armed brass desk lamps with black silhouette lampshades and color burst novelty bulbs. Above the table mounted on the wall is the ikea record shelf containing the risk of rain 2 OST vinyl.

it's been a minute since I've posted some pixel art but I made some for a video earlier and took a shot at doing a quick little animation with it

Boatplugs @shadylink.lol · 24/09/2026

So if anyone is curious on how to use pixel art in a video with kdenlive: pre-render the segments containing your pixel art with 'nearest' interpolation and then import those to be used in the final render. This will keep your pixel art from getting smudgy :)

It’s been said before, but bears repeating: LLMs are the ideal technology of fascism. Multifaceted and incredibly powerful in their ability to erode the notion of truth.

I am not a religious person, so it is natural for me to recognize irrationality when I see it. Ghosts do not exist, and machines are only sentient if you move the goalposts into a realm we can't see or define.

You know what's missing from the AI fears discussion? Stuxnet and NotPetya If you're familiar with those cyberweapons, then software that autonomously spreads, messes up computer systems, and ends up acting in ways beyond its creators' intentions or control isn't a brand new shock.

This is why I think it's so important to push back against the personification of LLMs. If a person shoots someone while wearing a hand puppet, they can't claim the hand puppet did the murder.

Oh, you're absolutely right! That plane was at 1000 feet, not 10000 feet. My mistake. The next step is likely cleanup. Best practice is to read up on the MSDS before attempting the handling of aircraft crash debris.

Hi, I'm an expert on AI failure modes, not a left-wing pundit, and I am here to happily tell you that it is not smart, it is insensate, it is disembodied, and most importantly it cannot reflect upon or update priors at the model level. The security concerns around it are largely due to foolishness.

A lot of people involved in the active development of LLMs seem to be the type that like to do experiments just so they can stare at the results, much like an excited child making 'potions' with chemicals from under the bathroom sink.

AI CEOs are in awe that their models can, given few constraints, hack autonomously. They're also wracked with a vague fear that their products will soon hack the entire internet. I reported on how it's very curious that they seem utterly disinterested in working with cybersecurity experts on this.

Trans rights is inherently a bodily autonomy issue. Just like abortion rights is. We can't have gender equity or reproductive freedom without trans rights. Full stop. You can yell at me and make up shit that you claim I've said if it makes you feel better. I don't care. I'm right. And you know it.

Fuck these pieces of shit who market with garbage like this. It literally tells you to remove the lithium battery before throwing it out. How many people are going to see that let alone care? You shouldn't be able to absolve your company from this liability in this way.

A piece of spam mail that has a chunk of plastic e-waste glued on it containing a screen and lithium battery. There is text below it saying "once prize status is claimed to properly recycle combination box, pull apart and remove lithium batteries"

And that's fine. I am not terribly keen on them myself. I am, however, keen on the independently validated research I've been doing for 2 years. The underlying semiotic instabilities are the true concern. They've been at the root of the latest sandbox breakout from Anthropic.

Its a lot of shit that hammers on the same garbage that doesn't work. Alignment is the key! Nope. Underlying meaning parsing and manufacturing is broken. Alignment will fail when meaning is absent. Nuke it all! Not gonna work either man. Lalalala it's all fine! No, it really isn't.

You're going to hear a lot of talk about alignment today. This is not the issue. The issue is semiotic instability. Alignment is problematic because it's built on sand where meaning is concerned.

Did you know that In the movie Galaxy Quest the character Gwen DeMarcos' (played by Sigourney Weaver) sole responsibility on the ship was to talk to the ship computer? This was done because the only way to adequately secure a semiotic system is to restrict access to a single person.
