tech ceos love to talk like it's impossible to know what the computer will do at any given time as if that's smart and powerful and amazing. the determinism was like, the best part of the computer though. removing the determinism is the opposite of smart. it's stupid

a y2K style tshirt with the crew of Sailor Moon and the text "HOT GIRLS HATE A.I. - It makes mediocre people even dumber!"

The Last Jedi is the good sequel. Revenge is the good prequel. Empire is the best movie. Andor is the GOAT.

For the racists in the back: It's not actually a Welcome To Australia. It's Welcome to Country in the same sense that I might welcome a friend from Sydney who's staying in Melbourne for the week - "happy to have you here, thanks for visiting our cool place. We'll make sure you have a good time here"

Men need to stop killing women. They need to stop treating their partners as property. They need to see women as people with their own needs and wants, not as extensions of their needs. Men need to put down the damn guns and pick up their phones to call a therapist. Men need to stop killing women.

I've just seen another example of someone replying to a creator for the sole purpose of requesting a specific piece of new content from them. Like this living, breathing person is just an LLM they are prompting. I think this is bot activity, but if it's people doing this .. absolutely flabbergasted

Kansas has, overnight, invalidated the drivers’ licenses of trans people, a pointless cruelty that upends their lives If Brits think “it won’t happen here” think again! Groups in the U.K. who want the same thing are routinely invited to consult with Labour and normalised in our press!

Hot take: reading an AI generated summary of a book doesn't count. Audiobooks do, ebooks do, paper books do. Engaging with all the words in the book counts. A summary does not count. You have not received the message as delivered by the author. It. Does. Not. Count.

Self hosting and privacy tools are SO MUCH MORE ACCESSIBLE than ever before. The information is available. The hardware is cheap. The software is free. The concept of democracy and individual freedom is at stake worldwide, but we have the tools to fight back.

You may recall that in January of 2025, artist Ann Telnaes announced that she had quit The Washington Post after editors killed a cartoon that depicted owner Jeff Bezos, among others, genuflecting to Trump. This cartoon feels even more relevant this week.

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

If you own a building with a roof (your house, or a workshop, or garage etc), the best investment you can make is covering it with solar panels. The second best investment you can make is buying enough battery capacity to capture your solar array's excess generation.

Many wars in Europe over the centuries were fought to keep individual rulers from holding too many concurrent thrones. So why do we constantly let businesses merge? The intrinsic danger has been clear for possibly thousands of years

Creators would benefit much more by doing these things on literally any other platform considering Twitter’s throttling of posts and boosting of only the most inflammatory (often dishonest, often right-wing) takes.

I guarantee there are tens of millions of people that think "right wing" means "correct wing" because they don't know that words can have multiple definitions. They probably think the same about right handedness.

Twitter is the world’s largest generator of CSAM & non-consensual porn by a margin of about 8000%, and somehow… MSM isn’t even reporting on it. (also includes advice for reporting ‘deepfake harassment’ to police if it escalates to a point where restraining order is necessary) youtu.be/p71qQKmIGhQ

An excellent (as always) video from Alanah about the disgusting shit going on on Twitter. I'm not going to criticise anyone for still using Twitter, but anyone that is, I urge you to watch this and then ask yourself if it's really a site you want to continue using.
