the presentations of her character across castlevania games starting as a mask with a glowing eye, then turning into these various forms where she ends up having major roles in things. Like even her presentations in Circle of the Moon are hugely different from one another:
Caremilla's character art from Castlevania Circle of the Moon, a tall brunette woman in a red-and-pink (pink as red-white not magenta) dress, her hair is up in a bun with two fans that seem like fins pinning it up on either sie of her head.  her legs, while covered by the dress, are silhouetted and present about 2/3rds of her figure.  They blend into the dress somewhat so it's hard to say if she's wearing red thigh high boots or leggings or if it's the impression on the dress.  The dress fans out almost like the paper of a flower around her.  it links to a corset-bodice top that has frilly contouring that matches the shoulder length gloves on her armA screenshot of Castlevania Circle of the Moon showing the Carmilla Boss fight.  She is a pixel art of an implicitly nude red-skinned demon-woman with sharp elf-ears is shown with red hair and large red wings, riding on top of a gigantic strange humanoid skull with horns eminating from it.  The horns tangle like a rope knot around the cranium inside of which she hides her legs and forearms.    The protagonist of the game stands before her, pillars and flowing water over stone constitute the background.  there's a health, mana, and hearts bar in the upper left hand corner of the screen

Legion from Castlevania.  Presented as an orb of smooth mostly featureless naked figures interlocked in a mass, their bodies are outlined with a strong red color and their skin goes from a warm gray down to a warm dark crimson as the orb is shaded as if a light source is illuminating it from the top

- AI overviews: AI summaries frequently occupy th emost prominetn space above the search results

I had to go check. Nate Silver and his opus (now dead to the general internet) were a major part of the movement to make journalism cover politics like it's sports.
A screenshot of two posts by Nate Silver on the hellsite, it begins with a QRT where he captions a link to a post with "Honestly what a bunch of assholes @ABC".  The linked post is by Nathaniel Rakich (@baseballot) who writes: "ABC News has now taken all FiveThirtyEight articles completely offline. They now redirect to abcnews dot com/politics.  A needless erasure of thousands of pages of knowledge."  The Nate Silver post has 157 replies, 596 retweets and qrts, 11,473 likes, and has been seen one million times.  The next post by Nate Silver writes: "BTW, I approached ABC about buying back the former FiveThirtyEight IP* and they said they wouldn't sell at any price because I'd criticized their management of the brand.  Costing disney shareholders $$ b/c of their vindictiveness.  * I own the models but the trademarks[sic], etc."
The reply has 125 to it, 398 shares, 6,979 likes, and 630,232 views.

this part always kinda struck me as delulu since Bun uses JavaScriptCore and the apples-to-apples comparison would have been OpenJS
Q: What does this mean for Bun’s roadmap?
A: Bun’s team will be working more closely with the Claude Code team, and it probably will look similar to the relationship between Google Chrome <> V8, Safari <> JavaScriptCore, Mozilla Firefox <> SpiderMonkey, but with more independence to prioritize the wide variety of ways people & companies use Bun today.

AOL apparently has fully AI generated article categories and image captions, having otherwise inexplicably put an article on a disturbing video of the pedestrian being hit by an airplane under "Entertainment," and captioning a still from the airplane window as "a close-up view of a cup"
A screenshot of an AOL news article showing the url (which places it under Entertainment), a news headline that says "Mortified Frontier passenger cuts away after filming person being sucked in by engines", the article cites its apparent original site posting as being from the-express, and cites it being by author "Cheyenne Ubiera".  Beneath those citations is a screenshot of a window from the video described in the article title, but with an apparently AI-Generated caption which claims "An image displaying a close-up view of a cup, showcasing a dark liquid inside with illuminated numbers", beneath that the article begins with "A passenger was filming when the plane's engine caught on fire (Image: X)"

there's supposed magic that prevents the server you're connected to from logging PRIVMSG plaintext strings, but JOINS are fine. Mind you if your employer has an IRCd they're definitely logging fucking everything, same thing with Slack administrators being able to dump a full interaction history

I drilled down on some bad ai answers and there's a guy in a thread telling people that it is actually not possible for irc servers to log communications. Like, nonstop arguing with people in the replies.
A screenshot of a reply by Reddit user McDutchie from 2months ago it reads:
"IRC servers never store chat logs.  If you want logs, you have to be present on the channel and generate your own logs.
Other than that, define "secure".  Without knowing what your security requirements are, your question is meaningless."

I think it's kinda interesting that when you drill down into the stuff underpinning everything having "TUIs" these days that at some point the libraries are like 'go library implementing ncurses without the need for <part of ncurses api>' (alt text has english translations of image)
A screenshot (in Italian) of a google nGram viewer, though this alt text will be purely in English.

the screenshot shows a comparison of interest over time of "Text-based user interface" (as a topic), against "ncurses" (as software).

A graph at the bottom of the page shows the worldwide interest showing ncurses having its peak interest in 2004, with text-based user interfacde having a small fraction.  Both terms approach 0% interest until 2021 where Text-based user interface suddenly ticks up and, after an oscillation, seems to be approaching 25% (of ncurses's 2004 interest) in 2026.

the ai saga sort of contrasts with Blueskys own attempts at the branding it presents to potential users, I kinda have to say
the modal popup when you open bluesky on a completely new browser.  The modal is blurring the rest of the webpage and appears as a rounded blue and cool off white vista which begins at the bottom as clouds fading into a powder blue sky.

it has the bluesky logo and the word bluesky center-top

fading out of some clouds are three lines which read

Real people.
Real conversations.
Social media you control.

Below that are two buttons "Create Account", which is a rounded somewhat bar or pilled shape large blue button with a a black border padded 1-2px from its edges.

Below that is a blue hyperlink text whose formatting is otherwise similar to the button, which reads "Explore the app"

Below that in smaller text is the text, "Already have an account?" and to its right an option to Sign In to the website.

All the ads telling people to use copilot in excel for their business are kinda like, flying in the face of the actual text of the Copilot ToS aren't they? They kinda make it explicitly clear that the product is for entertainment purposes only
a screenshot of the Copilot terms of service, the section excerpted reads:

When you request that Copilot take Actions on your behalf, you are solely responsible for those Actions and any results or consequences.

Copilot is for entertainment purposes only. It can make mistakes, and it may not work as intended. Don’t rely on Copilot for important advice. Use Copilot at your own risk.

WITHOUT LIMITING SECTION 12 OF THE MICROSOFT SERVICES AGREEMENT IN ANY WAY, BUT FOR THE SAKE OF CLARITY, WE DO NOT MAKE ANY WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND ABOUT COPILOT. For example, we can’t promise that any Copilot’s Responses won’t infringe someone else’s rights (like their copyrights, trademarks, or rights of privacy) or defame them. You are solely responsible if you choose to publisha screenshot of the Excel webpage currently, it displays an "overview" drop down, and underneath it a "formulas with copilot" expanded page section which contains the text:

"Let Copilot do your calculations for you.  Ask for help figuring out the perfect formula for your data."

a hyperlink with the text "Try Copilot In Excel" is under that, and beneath that is a partially cropped image of some sort which, due to having been cut off by the crop, is just understood to be some sort of green ribbon-aesthetic thing.

one of spotify's current top artists is an Ai artist with ai-generated blurb that at no point tells anyone that it's an ai generated artist or blurb.
a screenshot of a spotify artist profile for Sienna Rose, an Ai Generated Artist.  The profile lists 36,909 followers and 2,790,521 monthly listeners as well as a breakdown of listeners by area. It contains a brief blurb saying "Sienna Rose is a neo-soul singer whose music blends the elegance of classical soul with the vulnerability of modern R&B.  With a voice that is tender, expressive, and deeply emotional, she creates songs that feel both timeless and intimate - like quiet confessions wrapped in melody.

Her debut project Velvet Embrace is a warm colleciton of soul ballads and grooves, exploring themes of love, safety, and healing.  Inspired by the analogue textures of 1960s soul yet rooted in today's sound, Sienna's music feels cinematic and deeply personal.

Every note she sings carries a sense of truth and beauty, making  Sienna Rose not just a performer, but a storyteller of the heart."

grabbed the sheet and wrapped it around herself and the brief costume Jabba had allowed her, and backed up again into the corner of the room that left her farthest away from Fett.  "You're not?"
Fett shook his head.  He sat down in the corner facing hers, moving carefully; his knees had been getting worse in recent years.  "Sex between those not married," said Fett, "is immoral."
"Yeah," said Organa. "So's rape."
Fett nodded. "So is rape." He sat in what was, for him, a comforable silence, watching her. She settled down in the opposite corner, being careful of her covering; Fett approved of her modesty, but it did not prevent him from continuing to look at her.  He had never so much as held a woman in his arms, Boba Fett, and the desire for a woman came to him less frequently, with the passage of the years; but in Fett's mind his chastity made him no less a man, and she was worth looking at, still flushed from her struggles, with her dark hair cascading down over the pale sheet.
