i feel like if you're too afraid to say no to the new gestapo on something like verifying their account and legitimizing their place on your website, you should probably consider either moving your HQ or just shutting shit down completely.

i have perfectly optimised my youtube algorithm to 42-year-old dad mode

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties. The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized. Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

this is genuinely incredible

critical support for whatever fancy foodborne disease shuts this whingeing failson up permanenly

the only “ray tracing” gamers should be interested in is tracing the rays of sunlight shining down from heaven. the only “path tracing” that should concern you is tracing the path of jesus christ our lord and saviour

13-month-old son has become obsessed with overhead lights, every time he notices one he points and says “la” and i say “yes, a light” and then he gives me this concerned slightly panicked look like i haven’t fully grasped the enormity of what i’m seeing

Daphne & Celeste, Reading Festival, 2000 🤝 ICE, Minneapolis, 2026

in a refreshing change of pace, both bandcamp and games workshop announced this week that they've banned AI to varying extents. these stances are crucial during a time when AI is being rammed down our throats at every turn, and some people are starting to accept it

Again. Would the Prime Minister merely express concern if you, or I spent three weeks generating hundreds of thousands of non-consensual nudes and child sexual abuse images, while bragging about, and profiting from, so doing? And would he praise us simply for promising that we'd stop doing so soon?

Khalil sent me a post to share, and Bluesky had deleted it within an hour. Impossible for Gazan people to do anything. Please help.

I DM'd him on Facebook to tell him his name had been released, and he may want to private his socials. His response was to change his PFP to this. Absolute king shit, gives zero fucks

The 'give ice qr codes' thing reminds me of when Sarah Everard was murdered by a real policeman using his real police id to kidnap her, and the police & gvt made out the solution was to have a helpline to check that the person bundling you away was a real policeman (as the murderer was)

The gofundme for that factory worker who called Trump a pedophile protector is at like $300k. Funniest possible outcome of this is everyone rushing to do the same thing in the hopes of getting paid

Reading the Communist Manifesto the way Marx and Engels intended

fiercely self-dependent. deeply distrustful of government. passionately opposed to taxation, red tape, “the age of consent” and so forth. that said, if you look at a cop wrong they should be able to murder you

i do think you should be given special permission to drive 30mph in a 20 if you first agree to standing still while a car hits you at 30, then you should be permitted to do 40mph in a 30 if you sign up to a car hitting you at 40, then you can apply to do 100mph on the motorway if

guy driving down the high street there tapping away on his phone, glancing up at the road clearly an afterthought, checked the plate and of course his MOT has expired. i swear one day i’m gonna go batman mode on these mfs

Years of strict brand guidelines and precise logo specs down to fractions of a point and ultimately none of it mattered

why cant video game studio execs be as a sensible about AI as games workshop's

in 2016 i made an edit of a dilbert comic and scott adams got so mad he blocked me and then blogged about it

give me a free 5090 and MAYBE i’ll stop slagging off your stupid dogshit for a few days

you really expect me to walk 10 minutes to pick my child up from school? when i can drive for one and spend the remaining nine idling comfortably right outside the gate? get real

Some people are responding to this with "it's not a problem that there's tons of fake images everywhere because I personally know they're not real," and I would invite those people to take a look at the state of the world.

I've been commissioned to write a piece about games based on real places that changed peoples' perception of that place or had some kind of local impact - are you a dev who made a game like this? Or are you a player who has a story about a game that inspired you to visit somewhere? Let me know!

Oh my god she uploaded a slow motion video and it's amazing. He's just like me fr running as best he can and still going backwards over and over!

depressing truth is loads of people simply don’t notice, don’t mind, or actively enjoy inconsistent AI slop so long as it triggers a vague sense of feelgood. entirely positive facebook reaction for this cutesy garbage and there’s fucking Goro from Mortal Kombat going for a pint/s

there's going to be a temptation to say that she had this coming but the reality is that this is about a billionaire misogynist pedophile eugenicist asserting himself over a woman and the products of her reproductive labor to rob her of child by using the courts he has contracted into his service.

screenshots of the startmap I built for qbj3 or Quake Brutalist Jam III some fancy bits in here will be in the coming update, like the paintings and plaques

how many different cloud storage services do you think helen serafinowicz has the divorce papers backed up to

first three coffees of the day are just to quash the withdrawal headache, the next nine are for pleasure

Renee Macklin Good's wife, Becca Good, released a statement and it moved me to sobbing tears: archive.is/ur35j

And here is the long-term danger for even the most good-faith, big-brained boys in gaming. Even if you only use AI in the "good" way, you've signaled to everyone that they need to be on high alert for future AI implementation, poisoning the well against any human-made asset that looks a little off.

In 1998, the (bad) Italian movie Cucciolo somehow managed to do something important: they shot quite a long sequence in the now-defunct SegaWorld London, located inside the London Trocadero. The park opened in 1996 and closed in 1999. Here is the entire sequence.

11 days from now marks one year since this guy got away with doing a Nazi salute on live TV. Since then, he - the world's richest man - has gutted govt programmes causing the deaths of hundreds of thousands of children and turned his microblogging website into a child porn generator. Consequences!

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

Every once in a while, a celebrity, like Chris O' Dowd or Richard Ayoade or Jimmy Carr* will inch their heads above the parapet and support Graham Linehan. Why isn't it the job of a journalist to go back to those people and ask them to comment on his supporting ICE shooting a woman in the head?

I cannot emphasize enough that the attempts to anthropomorphize an algorithm is a fundamental act of journalistic malpractice and an intentional act to shield the people responsible for this. It's fucking shameful.

Oh

stopped sharing photos of my kids publicly a few years ago and i’m expanding that to private accounts now, the scumbags who run these sites have no qualms about letting their AI warp whatever you post into the most diabolical shit

As someone that struggles with a delusional disorder, and spent a few years in a psychosis hell-hole, I am fairly convinced that I would have been manipulated into being a genuine threat to myself and others were ChatGPT a thing I could have interacted with pre-Therapy. It is a murder machine.

if you’re using AI generated posters to advertise your dog walking service how do i know you won’t just AI generate photos of my dog out on walks while you keep it locked in a cage in your shed

They’ve been active participants in and laundered a genocide, demonised asylum seekers, given their support for flag-shagging racists, taken support away from disabled people and are violently transphobic. Happy to help Duncan!
