Sacrifice! At the Harvest Festival @theharvestmaid.bsky.social · 14/04/2024
Why does it feel like most tech these days is driven by revenge instead of innovation? Gen AI, artificial wombs, deepfake porn. It all feels very "you won't do what I want, how I want, so watch me replace you." So much resentment and vindictiveness

I used to be a tech enthusiast. I am becoming a tech dethusiast. I don’t want any more tech to buy. I don’t want smart appliances. I don’t want smart pants. I don’t want smart dumbbells. I just want things that I can buy and that work for 20 years.

It is fucking bleak how my phone now has an entire Settings category dedicated to ads! I'm seriously looking for 2000s (or 90s) Nokias this weekend.

New from 404 Media: it is finally here. A user on Telegram is charging as little as $10 to make AI-generated porn of any normal, non-celebrity person in the world (not deepfakes, but entirely new AI creations). Sometimes posts the real person's name too www.404media.co/irl-fakes-wh...

Is it a neurodivergent/adhd thing to have monologues and/or music blaring in your head constantly? Because sheesh the loud brain radio gets exhausting sometimes.

They addressed how fat stigma might lead to underreporting, but my quick and dirty theory is people who regularly eat ice cream stress significantly less about what they eat, and their health in general, than those who assiduously avoid it, and the stress reduction is the protective factor.

Discovering that there is a completely fictional version of you living rent-free inside someone else's head is weird and unsettling.

Rich people, when they use new tech to steal from artists and writers: It’s the way of the future you just need to adapt Rich people, when workers use new tech to work from home and avoid shitty offices: how dare you peasant I will pass laws to punish you

My feeling is that if you take a take a tax write-off on a movie, the movie becomes public domain. You shouldn’t get millions of dollars for destroying something.

one of tech’s biggest problems is that it used to invent stuff that made people’s lives better and easier and in recent years has pivoted to “fake money for scams” and “plagiarism machine that puts you out of a job”

I know True Detective: Night Country is probably going to end in some miasma of ooky-spooky vagueness but I have enjoyed every minute of the first four hours and do not miss all the gnomic hetero-dude posturing a bit. I'll take angry-lady quasi-scandi-icecube-noir any time!

So Crunchyroll has acquired the Funimation library and is shutting down the app. Digital copies you purchased on Funimation? Gone. Wasted money. People ask why I collect physical media. This is why. You can literally BUY A THING and a bunch of well-compensated assholes can be like “actually no”

Ugh. Plenty of Philippine publications, websites, and content creators come to mind. Isang Linggo, hindi na Tiktok ang main source ng KMJS, kundi ito.

Block and move on. Block and move on. Block on a whim, Block weird replies. We are not here to "win" the internet, we are here to read cool posts from experts and artists we would never ordinarily be able to interact with, and occasionally promote our own cool stuff to like-minded weirdos.

The problem is, much like crypto, moneyed interests are annihilating climate advancements for largely useless speculative investments. It's a go nowhere get rich scheme that's pumping CO2.
