*so important*: if you’re voting by mail, assume the USPS will delay because it’s its policy. You can: —put it in drop box —go to counter to watch them postmark in front of you —if you’re dropping it in a mailbox, do it VERY EARLY.

Liking Galactic Racer so far, but I hated the annoying "Forza Horizon" intro to the game that throws you directly into racing the different types of vehicles right off the bat. I know it's a me thing, but I hate that shit; it reeks of mobile game "must hook the player immediately" shenanigans.

Not that I know of. We got a ferret from a swap meet in AZ, and she had a litter of 6 that we kept.

There is a lot of doom in the air around the twin existential threats of AI and climate change. Can we use this moment of rapid infrastructure expansion to kickstart our transition to clean energy? My full conversation with climate tech expert Steph Speirs is live on YouTube now!

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

As we close in on the midterms, a friendly reminder to check your voter registration status early and often, but ONLY on the state websites. Those third-party databases might be accurate, but you're gonna be passing along a lot of PII (Personally Identifiable Information) to whoever manages them.

"I don't think I can, so I won't even try" is a good part of why we're here in the first place. Even if there were only one Democrat left in Congress, they should still be filing articles of impeachment, if for no other reason than it's what their constituents want.

To expand on this: Bigotry isn't a result of an innocent misunderstanding, or not having all the facts. It's not a choice made rationally, defeated with a rational argument. Bigotry is a self-protective, foundational belief used to help make the world make sense to them. Debate won't change that.

With this current administration it could also be someone in the UK military hurt Trump's feelings, or Trump thought he could make money off of it somehow, or any number of mind-numbingly idiotic reasons. Looking for rationality in this admin's actions is an exercise in futility.

I don't know anyone that I like and respect who is on the "opposite side" of me politically because I don't like or respect fascists. I do not gain anything or grow in any way by trying to find common ground with people who literally want me, or anyone like me, or people who associate with me, dead.

We're continuing to report on sports betting apps, and we need your help. ProPublica is looking for at least 250 people who use DraftKings and FanDuel to share their data with us and help us understand how the apps respond to user behavior. ➡️ How to help: projects.propublica.org/sports-betti...
A neon green tracker shows that ProPublica has received 28 people's sports betting data, just over 10% of the way towards its goal of 250. Text below reads: If you’re one of millions of Americans who have placed an online bet on a sporting event, you know how quickly you can go from celebrating your wins to feeling like the odds are stacked against you.

ProPublica is trying to understand how sports betting apps incentivize users to keep playing and when they warn users to pump the brakes. To do that, we need your help: We’re aiming for at least 250 people to upload their gambling history from apps like FanDuel and DraftKings. We’re not quite there yet, so if you’ve used these apps, you can help our journalists. If you’ve worked in the industry, you can also help us by answering a few questions. (You can also reach us on Signal.)

A good fresh Star Trek take on those fake isekai title jokes
A tumblr screenshot showing a post and two reblog responses, reading:
1. "star trek would be the ideal fictional universe to get trapped in because you'd explain your situation and they'd be like yeah makes sense. no further questions. fortunately we can use the mysterious warp signature emitting from this system's icy moon to counterface with the solar radiation and slingshot you back home"
2. "I'm from a universe where your world is all a work of fiction." Benjamin Sisko, nodding. "That happened to me once."
3. "I Got Isekaid Into The Star Trek Universe And They Quickly Understood What Was Happening"

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.

I'd argue it's not projection, but CYA for the inevitable disaster caused by reliance on "AI" to manage vital resources and these chucklefucks want to avoid any responsibility for it. "It wasn't my fault the ATC system caused three planes to collide with the concourse! It was the AI!"
