Lot of journalist brained people going hm this AI thing… there has to be something to it. I better look into it. Another part of journalism is smelling obvious bullshit and saying that’s not worth investigating.

I work at the newspaper and just wrote The Great Awokening is over, I’m both 79 and 12 years old and make 260,000 dollars a year from a man who sent Katy Perry into space on a rocket ship. As you can see, everyone else is the problem.

NEW: Hackers ripped down a Flock camera above a roadway, made a near-complete copy of the data stored inside it, and shared the files with 404 Media and @wired.com, revealing in new detail how exactly Flock Safety’s cameras track the movements of both vehicles and people.

The report is suspect, but if the biggest number they could trot out is 24k noncitizen votes out of 128M (~28k if you very generously extrapolate to the ~30M votes they didn't include) then that's less than .02% of all votes cast

Thank you Con Ed for the email letting me know that you will be turning the power back on in my building because my landlord got around to paying a who-knows-how-long-overdue bill. Glad my connection to the guy isn't through regularly scheduled and unconscionably large rent payments.

Every time I play Vampire Survivors it feels like I have a thick film on me. It’s not even the game playing itself, the game is just pure machine zone. Doesn’t feel good.

BREAKING: the Massachusetts House just passed one of the best data privacy bills in the country. It includes a total ban on the sale of precise location data and includes a private right of action allowing people to sue Big Tech over data abuses. HUGE WIN! But there’s more work to do 🧵

Shaq is trapped in the TV. He's only allowed to talk about bball with his other bald friends or to sell insurance with The General. We don't know if he has hair bc of his helmet. This has been the case ever since Shaq was levitated, a crime for which his debt to society is eternal
