"The evil overlords are a software company, a mail order movie rental service, a bulletin board for Harvard students, a bookstore, and the world's shittiest car company. Oh and the AIs are built on chips for video games."

God I cannot wait for the eventual full release of this probably my most anticipated game at the moment

I decided to stop weekly comics shopping to spend less money (I’m treating future purchases like traditional book purchases if someone I’m a fan of writes something and it looks intriguing I’ll still pick it up), was a fun run but I’m a lot more content about the matter than I thought I’d be

I have not been able to play a game the last few days because I’m feverishly waiting this coming out next week, between this and Unbeatable incredible upcoming week

He shouldn’t just be pushed out as the House Democrats’ leader; he needs to be primaried out of his seat entirely. Just a complete waste of a deep blue seat.

Former Judge Andrew Napolitano, who worked alongside Pete Hegseth for years at Fox, says the Sept. 2 boat strike is "an act of a war crime." "Everybody along the line who did it, from the secretary of Defense, to the admiral, to the people who actually pulled the trigger should be prosecuted."

Feels like "missing" is inaccurate. This child was kidnapped by the secret police and is now either a political prisoner or a trafficking victim.

If you've ever worked in anime localization/dubbing then you would know that the client needs to be aware of EVERY decision by the studio. They have final say on everything; even casting choices. Amazon doing this without their knowledge is HUGE. At the very least it would endanger their license.

That wasn't very "Free Marketplace of Ideas" of you, now was it, Tim?

Words cannot express how excited I am for this game

when Michael Phelps was dominating US swimming there was endless coverage of all his genetic advantages. His wingspan, the way his body processed lactic acid, on and on and on. Nobody, not one person, floated the idea of kicking him out of the sport for genetic advantages

"Dodgers are ruining baseball because my owner won't spend money"

AI people are so fucking dumb they made a response to that post using homelander jesus christ it should be illegal to be this dumb

We all agree that these "dubs" suck. But once again, that's not the core problem here. The quality will inevitably improve, though I personally doubt to the quality of a dub made by actual humans who care. The problem is that these exist AT ALL. They're an offense to art, and always will be.

it’s very funny that turning point released this, demonstrating that it absolutely did not meet any of the criteria in the very explicit grading rubric for the assignment

What a great headline

I think we can safely say that the Leavitt's brother called ICE on his ex, the mother of his child, and I have to say: I have no desire to respect, find common ground or share the country with these monsters.

This is the type of hater energy that will fuel us in the years ahead.

watching this is a warm blanket on a damp, cold day

Just calling the pope the antichrist and encouraging others to disobey Rome, the way totally real and not at all fake-ass Catholics do

you're telling me a right-wing catholic convert is just a protestant in disguise? shocked

A healthcare system where we hope someone wants our autograph

I thank the lord that my mom from my earliest memory drilled into me how sexism and racism are bad. Like I could not imagine being such a sad human being as seeing a picture of workers on a project and making it into a crusade. Believe institutionalization should be on the table for these freaks.

There’s so many way to critique F4 a mediocre movie on the verge of being good but the CGI certainly isn’t one of those critiques.

I hope the people know who the snitch is so they can feel isolated for their actions like seriously they can go fuck themselves

it is really wild to me how much the Republican party line is that Americans are no longer allowed to be fat slobs, that we don't get to eat carrot cake or wear bucees branded polyester pajama pants to fly to Munich any more. fuck you! I'm an American!!

Spoke to a number of devs about how, in the face of CEOs claiming gen-AI is the future, their declaration of being genAI free is making waves.

in addition to all of his experience, in 2011 someone tried to assassinate kelly's wife, former congresswoman gabby giffords. no way he's cowing to these ass clowns.

Some superior wizard-school series you can easily replace HP with: 🧙 Witch Hat Atelier 🧙 Little Witch Academia 🧙 The Worst Witch 🧙‍♀️ The Owl House 🧙 Mashle: Magic & Muscles 🧙‍♀️ Wizard of Earthsea (le Guin) 🧙 The School for Good & Evil (Soman Chainani)

between this and the recent study about the success of adversarial poetry attacks on LLMs it’s a good week to be an arts & humanities proponent in a STEM technodystopia lithub.com/can-adversar...

Gotta pick this up next week on Switch when I get paid, also really wish Nintendo had a rating system because that’s one of the biggest issues I have with the current eshop

The FDR portrait is really something

Ms. Shimomura please do a mash-up of Megalomania and Megalovania I am begging

Ellis repeatedly accuses multiple CBP and ICE officials of lying (under oath) and says their "widespread misrepresentations call into question everything" they "say they are doing in their characterization of what is happening." She broadly discredits their testimony as objectively false.

Aw man I’m not physically well enough after surgery to go an hour into the city to see this in theaters that’s a huge bummer man. Guess I will be waiting until the home release but these are so fun in theaters I can help but be extremely disappointed

Well put by @drrachelbarr.bsky.social

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

as bad as shit is, very cool to meet a new folk hero seemingly every week

I’m howling.

Seen in Boston, Massachusetts in 1854.

this is like "Olympus has fallen" for public agency science communication; worse than censorship, actively misinforming people and encouraging them to harm children
