okay, apparently I have to clarify this: I do not actively post on Facebook, there is no official active "So Okay Here's the Thing" page on Facebook, if you see So Okay Here's the Thing reels on Facebook, those are stolen apparently multiple people are jacking my shit and it's infuriating

they aren't afraid to be weird and different, they don't care if their games are divisive. all they care about is making cool shit that they love and telling their strange little stories, and that's worth supporting no matter if the developer is AAA or indie. especially in the modern games industry.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but constant, chaotic, unfiltered news and social media can overwhelm the mind—flooding your attention, stirring up emotions, and making it hard to think clearly. It’s okay to step back and be selective about what you let in. Your mental well-being matters.

Just as a reminder, genAI images and videos aren't bad because they look bad. How close they get to the real thing is irrelevant. The reason they're bad is because ultimately genAI exists to put the creative process itself into the hands of corporations instead of actual creatives.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

this is an extremely important point, I think: people saying "you're being ableist by criticizing AI's 'humanity' because AI is just like disabled people" are, in fact, being ableist by themselves directly comparing disabled people to a literally unthinking nonentity with no inner life or experience

they have no interiority, no personal thoughts, no desires, drives, preferences, they do not wonder or comprehend. They are input/output machines, where the output is determined through various statistical models and algorithms in a way that is different from how any person responds to stimuli.

Right, but in the context of a discussion of AI: LLMs do not have rich, internal lives, or internal lives at all. They are not persons that lack certain faculties that others do possess, LLMs are not persons at all because they lack essentially *all* of those relevant faculties.

I've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling. They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.

A screenshot of an email viewed in dark mode with the subject line "Google DMCA Violation." The email from Google informs the recipient that they have received a notification under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) that some of their materials allegedly infringe on copyrights. It explains the removal process, mentions that notice details will be posted on Lumen, warns against repeated violations, and lists one affected Google Drive URL at the bottom

A nearly identical mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. It shows a search for the same Amnesty International UK resources URL, resulting in the same message: "This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine."

AI is a scourge. But it is important not to trust "AI detectors". I lost regular freelancing work because my client insisted I used AI to write copy (I didn't, but their AI detecting software said I did). This is a great thread with an excellent example of why these detectors cannot be trusted.

Stole this from the comments because this shit shouldn't be behind a paywall.

Crucially, the GLOVE has limitations, chief among them that for the device to work effectively and deliver its restraining pain shock, it must come into contact with the subject's bare skin. According to Compliant Technologies, the gloves won't work through dry clothing or thick hair. The gloves will work, however, if the subject is wearing thin, wet clothing, such as soaked T-shirts or blouses. The GLOVE also does not like being dunked in water and will likely be rendered inoperable if this happens.
