not going to talk much about fallout s2e1 (just watch, don't spoil yourself) but that fucking beat with the coffee was so loud.

AI is absolute garbage, the only people this helps is the rich, AI will cause consumer products, electricity and water prices to skyrocket. Data centres are hurting communities & consumers. AI is skyrocketing the price of RAM. Computers, phones and tablets could be next www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

If you're having a tough time these holidays, and find yourself turning to Al to cheer up or get advice, that's totally valid. Weird Al Yankovic is a funny guy who has a healthy perspective on life.

gaming companies pivoting toward using gen ai for their games, “omg why aren’t people buying our games” brother YOU are part of the reason RAM prices are skyrocketing and regular everyday gamers can no longer afford the parts they need in order to play your games 😭

continuing to commit gamedev crimes and nobody can stop me

media in this country is so completely cooked

In 2015 they said that Windows 10 will be the last version of Windows, what they actually meant that it would be the last good version of windows.

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone - tech is now more expensive - you cannot trust most media of reality anymore - programs barely function - energy prices - literal psychosis - your voice can be literally stolen for evil - more spyware but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

Gov said social media ban would only affect 16 yr olds. But most Aussies are being asked to perform age verification and some platforms have also restricted the comms of 16-18 year olds. The social media ban has a chilling censorious affect beyond the ban and imposes a blanket of mass surveillance

Australian government in 2025

all sauce, no sausage

Someone's gonna get to do a gov-sponsored OzTube or such, arent they. Murdoch or some other deep pocket. With the performance of Stan and the curation of Roblox, just chock-full of the most egregious gambling and mining ads. Why find a niche when you can carve one into rock? Grifts all the way down

today the aus govt actions its social media ban for under-16s. if i disappear, it's bc i'm not doing any age verification shit. friendly reminder that in australia, 15 year olds are old enough to get killed working a construction site but not old enough to go on instagram

Maybe if we elect a third Tony A next time, things will go better. The second one is as skeevy as the first.

There's going to be a spike in youth suicide and nobody is going to understand why

What a story! The marketing company behind the social media ban in Australia - smearing academics & figuring how to monetise the ban for big brands 😳

I get more angry about this the more I think about it. Some fucken FM radio deadshit has a brainfart, calls his mate the ex-Premier of NSW, lines up "brands" to push the stupid idea, and is making money off the whole thing, because of course.

Every puritan push is always a god damn cash grab.

When an adult gets kicked off a social media site because the platform erroneously assumed they were a minor, can they take legal action over infringement of political communication against both the website and government?
