Portland enacts emergency powers of nudity to check federal overreach.

These are deeply unserious people. #lettering

One of the lost 15 commandments is “thou shalt not knowingly share AI slop.”

One of my favorite anecdotes from THE PREHISTORY OF THE FAR SIDE: "That doesn't sound like the Jane Goodall we know."

feels like we're living through some kind of cultural gas leak

Basically how I've been internalizing it lol

i feel like this 100% of the time

If "AI" was as valuable as they say it is, they wouldn't be selling it to you. They'd be using it themselves in secret to make the next Minecraft, the next Avatar, the next Hello Kitty and then they'd sell that to you. They're trying to sell you a sick goose, while pretending it lays golden eggs.

Orbital Transfer Vehicle: an 80s NASA concept for a spacecraft that would carry payloads to higher orbits and return to low-earth orbit via aerobraking.

Listen, I straight up HAVE done this because I'd rather eat a couple of hours of PTO than go into work a zombie OR potentially slog it out, be exhausted 8 hours later and be a risk to myself and others driving home. And honestly? Normalize that shit.

things were better when the computer lived in its own specific room and you only went in there sometimes

Juche. The word you're looking for here is "Juche".

Right now I'm very much "Fuck you, I'm gonna write some really cool shit just to spite you fascist motherfuckers" mode

Dunno, just thinking of this movie today for some reason...

Incredible image of the aurora taken last night at 3:08 am CDT Sep 30 from the Suomi-NPP satellite flying over North America. You can see the extended auroral oval close to the U.S.-Canada border. What a beautiful display during this G3, STRONG geomagnetic storm. #heliophysics

I think the generals, admirals, etc. maintaining a posture of extreme professionalism in the face of whatever the fuck this is is a good thing, actually

To borrow a phrase from George W. Bush of all people... "Well that was some weird shit."

I can't get over how the right-wing doesn't understand modern militaries, with the majority serving non-combat roles. You think the best IT security & logistics personnel spends two hours in the gym every day to look like the cast of 300? They're at furry conventions and model train shows.

One, that's not how copyright works and there will be an entire battalion of IP lawyers who will be happy to correct Open AI of this misapprehension, likely to the tune of billions of dollars, and two, fuck this shitty thieving waste of proteins and lipids

can never forget that Fred Trump spent his later years totally gaga but surrounded by a gaggle of senility-denial-enablers who drove him to a make believe office where a make believe secretary had him sign make believe papers—which sounds cute til you see the sequel & the secretary is Stephen Miller

I cannot express how wild this quote is. This is a top tech analyst at a well-regarded firm saying that there is not enough capital to actually pay for all the stuff that NVIDIA and OpenAI has promised. It is so important that everybody realizes that *there is not enough money to do this*

In 1885, Montreal was ravaged by smallpox. To stem the spread of the disease that had killed thousands so far, public health officials enforced vaccinations. Those that mistrusted the vaccine rioted in the streets. This is the story of the Montreal Smallpox Riots. 🧵 1/10

I hold many grudges against "Artificial Intelligence", but perhaps the biggest one is how confusing this era is for all us Weird Al Yankovic fans.

“Portrait of a DNA Sequence” is a 50-foot sculpture in the lobby of UC Davis' Life Sciences Building. Created in 1997 by sculptor Roger Berry, it represents 201 base pairs of DNA, represented by stainless steel & dichroic mirrors. The mirrors cast colored reflections on the stairwell.

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE. If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease! Donate at blinkingguy.com

This is Stanislav Yevgrafovich Petrov. On this day, 42 years ago, he saved your life and the lives of everyone you love. He saved the world. Google his name.

Happy Stanislav Petrov Day! On this day one man prevented the apocalypse.
