If a driver usually logs on at 10 PM and accepts every garbage $3 order instantly without hesitation, the algo tags them as "High Desperation." ... the system then deliberately stops showing them high-paying orders. "Why pay this guy $15 for a run when we know he’s desperate enough to do it for $6?"

re-watched LA Confidential last night. Still an absolute banger, I'd forgotten a young Patrick Jane in one of his early roles shows up. The three leads are fantastic, with James Cromwell putting in a quiet but powerful performance. I look at young Guy Pearce thinking he'd have been a good Cyclops.

genAI is the devil. It's the enemy of art. If you use it in ANY part of your process, not only do you fuck over the environment, and fuck over your fellow artists, you are cheating yourself of everything that makes art worth doing.

LeMonde said, not on our watch

Stranglehold from The Transformers from 2017, Stranglehold from The Transformers from 2025. Didn't draw the wee robot lad coming out of him in 2025 but he's probably staying inside the shell as 2025 is dog shit

Reposting my Cyberworld artwork here for the new follows.

Always good to keep in mind that Guardian has a partnership with OpenAI.

Apparently Paypal is now asking those who commissioned artists through invoices for feedback on the experience, Please never type anything, Its a trap. Just putting both yours and their accounts at risk of bans.

This screenshot of Elite is 23 kilobytes. The entire game was 22 kilobytes.

Odd that Gender is a biological, immutable certainty AND something you can lose if you own the wrong dog.

I did treat myself in the run up to Christmas and found myself back on the physical media train unexpectedlty having picked up a VHS player and a few tapes (clearly Transformers) to watch the PROPER version of Transformers The Movie in all it's glory.

Been a quiet Christmas (by design), been a bit of ongoing shitty time IRL right now due to the Elder T's ongoing health situation so batteries needed recharging a bit. Hope everyone has had a grand time whatever they were up to.

26th December sketch - I lied before it's not over

The doctor is in the house

Sometimes being a single dad means you haven't got enough arms to do all the chores that need doing at Christmas. So for DAY 23 of #ADVENTICONS, spare a thought for TARANTULAS!

Just gonna point out that the people who are resigning from Heritage Foundation NOW were fine with Project 2025. Quitting because of a right-wing slapfight about exactly how much Nazism is acceptable is not the same as quitting because you fixed your moral compass.

It’s a fucking masterpiece

Transformers: CYBERWORLD will be back in 2026, Season 1 is not over yet! I'm still so thankful for everyone watching & enjoying what we do. I'm glad it's found you. Also to our wonderful team of artists, thinkers & performers bringing the weird stuff inside my head to screen #transformerscyberworld

It’s that time of the year when we celebrate one of James Stewart’s best roles. He was never better than as incorruptible cop John Hartigan in Sin City (1952)

The Reform vote continues to stagnate. The Green vote continues to creep up. There is never zero hope.

Hi. Court reporter here again. I can confirm about a third of local cases I see are domestic abuse of women and girls. Where do you think the men start? And almost every columnist tells you to look elsewhere.

So, just to confirm, the BBC can’t keep Robin Ince on the air because his trans allyship brings the organisation into disrepute, but they can keep David Walliams, who performed Nazi salutes at the recording of this very show, on the air despite him being predatory towards women. Cool. Very normal.

Looks like Hot Rod wasn't the only Transformer to pay a visit to Hamley's in 1987. Behold Galvatron!👮🤖 TFRaw.com

Hold Starmer and Lammy to account for complicity in Israel's #GazaGenocide x.com/i/status/200...

This is basically how you need to treat fascism.

UCKG pastor’s exorcism in London resulted in child’s death and jailing of 4 guardians. They backed Bolsonaro in Brazil. They are anti LGBT+ Don’t give them money!

The #1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go Well if we are talking UK mine's is the Bambi reissue. US it's Police Academy 3- Back in Training (which i saw in the cinema a little later that year). Not sure what either means for my year...

I do not miss my days in retail, especially at this time of year when people's limited empathy towards staff goes out the fucking window.
