a purrfect circle

Digital ID is Starmer's Metaverse, and he's out here desperately pitching his daydreams about how it could one day be useful to a disinterested public because he's already invested too much in it to back out now.

openai are disgusting freaks

The photo: The comments you will laugh at:

Donald Trump’s father destroyed Steeplechase Park, the iconic amusement palace of Coney Island. Before demolition, he hosted a party for his rich fuck friends where bikini clad waitresses gave them bricks to throw through Steeplechase’s famous stained glass windows

Viewed from the outside it can look like America is lost. This guy is everything wrong with America but the way the crowd handled him is everything right with America.

Oh my god some fucking tech dingdong posted this on Twitter with the caption "AI games are going to be amazing" totally seriously, you have to watch it. You have to. In full screen.

Uptoown, where the square manholes have circular covers and you get attacked by helicopters in the sewers.

I remain baffled by people who are taken in by these silly parlour tricks. It makes about as much sense as thinking you can make money from the coins the magician finds behind your ear.

On one hand, we should focus on the human cost of Trump's misrule. Countless lives have been blighted and many destroyed. That's far more important than a garden. Nonetheless, this is emblematic of his mindset. He is a wrecker. He will bulldoze anything and anyone that doesn't serve him.

People want an alternative to Tory-Labour. If we give them credible options that are not far-right infiltrators then they take them. BBC News - Plaid wins by-election as Labour loses 100-year grip on Caerphilly www.bbc.com/news/article...

FFS, don't make me defend a Ford! Anyway, I'm pretty sure that Trump doesn't know what either "cheated" or "caught" means. www.cbc.ca/news/world/t...

Trump is constantly blasting his propaganda at everybody but that doesn't mean that he thinks that anybody else should be free to do likewise. Only he is allowed the megaphone. BBC News - Trump says trade talks with Canada 'terminated' over anti-tariffs advert www.bbc.com/news/article...

Everything that Trump does is worse than you think. This is true even after taking this fact into account.

It's clear from today's AP photos that Trump has entirely demolished the East Colonnade—added to the White House by Thomas Jefferson in 1805—and restored by Theodore Roosevelt in 1902. The East Colonnade didn't occupy the footprint of the Trump "ballroom"—its demolition was completely unnecessary.

Labour advisors: we need to appeal to the hell demographic

I don't know how much money went into securing this dubious endorsement but I know it wasn't worth it.

The Shape of News I have been finding it frustrating trying to make sense of the News recently. You can listen to or read the BBC News, as well as News from many other UK outlets, and still have very little idea what is going on. I have noticed a couple of common patterns in News reporting that…

These arbitrary delays to elections are fundamentally undemocratic. Labour and the Tories are stitching it up between them. It's corrupt! Either the new council is ready to go or it isn't. If it isn't then we need interim elections until the new council is ready! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I was watching Hank Green explain circular financing in AI and my first thought was that this is the Bagpuss story where the mice convince Bagpuss that they can make chocolate biscuits out of butterbeans. Then, as he continued, I realised that it's just Enron all over again! youtu.be/Q0TpWitfxPk?...

could do with a lot less open advocacy for ethnic cleansing in global politics tbh

I wrote a poem about Windows Modules Installer I wrote a poem, or maybe it's a song. Who knows? Anyway, it's about Windows Modules Installer Worker constantly grinding my corporate laptop into the ground. It's no more poetic, and certainly no better, than Windows deserves. Windows Modules…

Or..... and hear me out here.... maybe the fucking robot should do my job so I can be the one going on the vacation?

"No, we don't want a monarchy, we want a theocracy" is a not the flex they think it is.

The media is even hedging its description of that diarrhea plane video as "seemingly AI generated." That whole "the job of the media is to look out the fucking window and find out" has very clearly stopped being a thing. "Seemingly" as if maybe that did happen, who is to possibly say it did not

No, we can’t just agree to disagree on our opinions and live peacefully together when one person’s opinion is that the other can’t live in peace. Everyone already knows this, yet people pretend otherwise when it inconveniences them

Part of me wants to say "No shit, Sherlock" but I should probably be grateful that we are finally beginning to admit that there is an elephant in the room. BBC News - Rachel Reeves says Brexit deal caused long-term damage to economy - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I've been thinking about Trump posting those stupid AI videos where he seems to have stolen the Burger King's crown. I think that he may have miscalculated. By leaning into the King thing he admits every accusation made against him. He is both a clown and a tyrant. Nobody can fail to see this.
