This happens all the time. Chat GPT cites sources that don’t say what it claims, or fabricates them entirely

the father of modern rocketry was there to summon demons. the founding father of Scientology was there to steal his girlfriend.

fun fact this pulled medical textbook with AI came from Springer a company that went international thanks to Robert Maxwell, father of Ghislaine Maxwell, and also father of the entire deeply abusive scientific publishing industry that exists today

My music listening from the last seven days.

after days of grifters and con men at CES we stumbled upon the booth for VLC. they were all dressed as wizards and told us, "we have nothing to sell, we just decided to show up". i told them I'd been using their software to pirate media for 15 years and they said "keep doing that"

The albums that received the most listens for me in 2024.

It's become a NYE tradition to ST some Clocktower. Was very impressed to watch my kids get into the game and make excellent plays. My eldest boy drew the Scarlett Woman token and, after his demon hit the day one exe, made the best strategic kill to cast shade on two good players.

What a game!

love ppl who thirst to be intellectuals but could never cut it. the line is "heavy hangs the head that wears the crown" which is a misquote of Shakespeare, Henry IV, "Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown." tl;dr these guys are ignoramuses but everything is tl;dr for them that's why they like AI.

Happy this time of year for those who celebrate.

Whenever something like this happens, I tend to pay attention to analysis from Robert Evans (@iwriteok.bsky.social) because he tends to focus on what's verifiable and avoids getting drawn into speculation based off hearsay. shatterzone.substack.com/p/alleged-ce...

It's Moving Day. Which is misleading, because I have been moving for many days now and will need to continue moving for many more days.

Watching a vod from @patters.bsky.social where he gives math equations as Savant information and that's what I want every time I am the Savant now.

Watching the #botc Xaan release vod and @beardytas.com gaining all the abilities is my kind of mechanical gameplay.

Thank you for the great content @iwriteok.bsky.social @greatesttrek.bsky.social @dungeonsanddads.bsky.social @lisakopitsky.bsky.social I think those are all the people in my top 5 pods that I have found here.

It's Spotify Wrapped time again so here's a thread of my stuff.*

Everytime I play in-person Clocktower I just want to play more in-person Clocktower. It was great sitting next to my son in a game for the first time (have only STd for him before me). Very proud of the Empath 1 he had on me as the Mayor and therefore he wasn't trusting my antics.

Finally scratching Twin Peaks off my "To Watch" list. Loving Cooper and Harry's Data/Geordi bff energy.

The Whirlpool Galaxy, M51, is a spiral galaxy located 31 million light-years away. It highlights the attributes of a typical spiral galaxy, including graceful, curving arms, pink star-forming regions, and brilliant blue strands of star clusters.

I'm going live soon on Hard Claim with our weekly #BloodOnTheClocktower stream! Running "Weathering the Storm" by Ember and "The Squall of Cthulhu" by Angelo and Nick. Both have a Stormcatcher (favoring Recluse and Lunatic, respectively.) Hope to see some of you all there! www.twitch.tv/hardclaim

This app has brought back a strange feeling in me that I can only describe as "posting optimism". I am not sure if that's a good thing but it's certainly a better feeling than that of anything to do with Meta.

Listened to these two episodes yesterday and today. Was interested to see how #botc gameplay works in an audio format. Thoroughly enjoyed it all! The team did a great job putting it all together. Such a large cast of players can be tricky to track without visuals, but I thought they made it work.

You can hate on the song as much as you want. I don't care. But the visuals in the Star Trek Enterprise intro sequence are amazing and top notch.
