New ornament for the tree

Christmas was nice and I got my necklace after ☺️

CEOs think AI can do their worker's jobs because it can do a CEOs job (make shit up)

Addendum to this thread: The weather is REALLY bad, and though my mom lives in the same community, it's not looking like we'll make it to her place for Christmas. The roads are not cleared, everything we shoveled this morning is back and then some. So no gift for today it seems.

I've been dying laughing all morning and that's the best gift.

Probably same level of delusion as this

I feel like I'm going insane. "The Ecosia Browser is a proprietary web browser based on Chromium. The browser has a built-in ad blocker, AI chatbot, and a climate pledge rating that assess a company’s pledges on environmental sustainability." How do you have a climate pledge and a chat bot?

I go to give it to Michelle, all grins. She opens it up... nothing inside. Just some cardboard pieces that rattled around that I mistook for the necklace. /2

Have a little panic attack, thinking of how I'm going to have to try and convince the store they gave me an empty box. But then I find out mom gave me the wrong damn box, she has the necklace at her place.

So we were not planning to celebrate Christmas this year. But a few months ago Michelle found a necklace she really liked in a boutique store where they make their own silver jewelry using local gemstones. It's a unique piece. And so I secretly bought it, and gave it to mom to hold onto until now /1

Why don't we get a feels like for wind chill when it's 0 or above? #nlwx

We had a really nice, long walk in the woods this morning and Laszlo was tuckered but he'll always be on guard if there's a sound outside.

Laszlo knows what it's like to feel blue at this time of year. His miserly parents have only taken him for THREE walks today so far! Just three! Sure two were long walks in the woods, but there's still so much snow left to be rolled in and eaten!

Laszlo wishes you all happy holidays! And if you are feeling alone or down, he wants you to know that you aren't alone. And you can bury your sadness in his furry mane.

His bark is very cute but it does do psychic damage.

This is going to create so many issues.

Man its like just so invasive and gross feeling to see "Edit Image" appear over other people's images. Musk decided to give us the only kind of gift he can for christmas, sickening disappointment. Best of luck out there folks.

Capitalism relies on the core checks and balances of ghosts visiting rich men to instill a conscience in them.

I am an old-school sort of man. I like celebrating our cherished traditions, such as: generosity to others, and crossdressing.

Big fluffy baby. I love him.

What a beautiful dog!

his poofed-out chest! he's so dignified

Those ears! Standing at attention

On this day in Horror Comedy History, SPIDER BABY was released in 1967.

Whoa, I can't believe Christmas Eve tried to steal the thunder from one of @jmkeep.bsky.social's favourite movies: Spider Baby.

Grabbed 4 chocolate covered almonds as a snack. And one turned out to be coffee? Which might sound mundane, but I have a hyper sensitivity to caffeine so I guess I'm not sleeping tonight.

There is only one acceptable Christmas song, and it's Newfoundland's Mummer's Song. Which has the important holiday lesson of: Gender is fluid.

"Schools and districts should only partner with technology providers that prioritize safety, privacy and inclusivity in their products." Yes. Good. That means NONE OF THEM. None of the companies you have partnered with meet this challenge. By your own guidelines, you must sever your ties.

"Engaging students with AI-driven projects encourages creativity, critical thinking and hands-on experience with advanced technologies." No. "A.i." products DESTROY creativity by telling kids their own minds and thoughts and hands are inadequate for producing worthwhile writing and art.

But this is an impossible injunction that reflects an embarrassing misunderstanding of the scale of theft these companies have indulged in. If a kid uses "A.i." to generate an image, the program is using a database that uses inputs from millions of stolen images created by thousands of creators.

"Educators, educational leaders and unions must continually approach federal, state and local governments to secure funding for technology and training..." You want teachers to push electeds to give more money to tech corps instead of teachers? No. Forget "A.i." Just pay TEACHERS more.

The document says, "Educators must learn how they can use AI to simplify their working lives." Now you are demanding teachers use "A.i." Educators don't need to use "A.i." Educators need to be paid more. Not to enrich corporations by using untested, dangerous "A.i." products.

You are painting a vision of a future in which teachers create lessons with "A.i.," students complete them with "A.i.," and teachers grade them with "A.i." No learning takes place under this system. The only benefactors of this system are the corporations being paid for the "A.i." products.

If it's got snow, it counts as a Christmas movie? #filmsky 🎥❄️

Books written with absolutely zero use of AI at any stage.

Theft is theft, even when it’s laundered. GenAI is laundering stolen labor. I genuinely feel like I’m going insane with organizations that should be against plagiarism excusing plagiarism with LLMs. It’s plagiarism!! What more do you need to hear? Do you accept plagiarized entries? No? Ok then!

Bari made the move to pull the segment a few hours before broadcast, if it was that big a deal then CBS should have contacted Global at an executive level to let them know (which I bet they forgot to do, you think Bari thinks about international syndication when she’s panicking?)

Global TV is a low-effort conservative-leaning private network, and this wasn’t “treachery” this was “it was the weekend before Christmas and they just broadcast the episode that was sent to them digitally by CBS on Friday”, no one in the office on the weekend even if CBS tried to warn them

"You're a silly little no-neck motherfucker." ~ @jmkeep.bsky.social to Laszlo

What's more likely: this or... Bari is bad at her job and didn't realize she had to notify affiliates to pull the segment?

The Atlantic having a mask-off moment as the villainous right-wing rag it is. And building consent for more hostile American actions against our sovereignty.
