The image is of a four panel comic.
In the first panel we see Sarah, the protagonist, next to a stick figure labeled “AI”. The stick figure says, “my outputs look just like yours now.”
The second panel zooms in on Sarah’s face. Above her we see text reading “I think”.
The third panel zooms in closer on Sarah’s face. Text above her reads “you missed”.
The fourth panel shows Sarah drawing happily in a sunlit room. The text above her reads “the point”.

HaJ3FgupAm8RrDJW3MHgT9X7Ft27eVaD What is that? That's a hard-coded API token that Flock cameras use to identify themselves and get OAuth credentials, which can then be used to talk to Flock's production servers. Like, anyone on the internet can probably do this right now.

Hey #chicago people: I'm looking to visit for about a week, what are your favorite things to do that aren't tourist traps? I like art, architecture, and history. I'll only be on public transit.

I don't worry about the amish not using electricity. that's fine for me. electricity is still useful in my life. you care that I don't use AI because even if you'll deny it over and over, you know it's a pyramid scheme. you know you're part of a grift.

This is at least the second SSA office in the area they've pulled this shit at too, after being trespassed from the other office as well. Don't let your loved ones do business with these predatory fuckers.

Wanna know just how much of scumbags Humana healthcare is? They set up a tent at the local Social Security parking lot to get leads. They were "helping people with their Medicare applications" after being explicitly told no previously. The rep refused to leave today until cited for trespassing.

I think one reason data center outrage is so pronounced is people spent decades recycling and composting and otherwise scrimping to offset energy use and protect clean water, and the second we hit an inflection point for cheap electricity the banking industry said we’re taking all of it, fuck you

Misheard my spouse, would now like to propose a new techy portmanteau: "Authentigated" for when the ostensible security measures of a service actually function to exclude certain potential users (i.e., people who can't receive a text, people with no fixed mailing address, etc.)

The internet‘s ruthless efficiency killed little shops run by old men where they would find you a specific screw, bolt etc from their dusty boxes out the back. Now the internet has gone to shit, you google that specific item and get shown a big pile of random loose screws. Bring back old man shops.
Stainless steel knurled thumb screws, high type. No use to me because I want M4 knurled brass thumb nuts, high type.

There's hardly a meaningful distinction between ICE and the Gestapo at this point and we might as well confront that. No reforming an institution which became the gestapo. It must be destroyed.

I've visited Seattle, Portland, and Chicago, and was extremely disappointed in each of them. Not a single burning building or riot anywhere in sight. All I got was effective public transportation and great culture.
