It’s so weird that this is very probably caretaker abuse but none of us really care because he’s evil and none of his friends seem to be able to intervene so we have just been watching this guy slowly die in public on and off for several years.

i have a false tooth filled with a placebo in case i'm ever captured and need to be a control subject

I also fucking hate it because i hate doing biometrics for stuff. Can't make some of my senio loved ones do it either because their fingerprints are literally fading due to age so they have to cancel out every time

It's cool and healthy how the supreme Court is made up of corrupt people who are or are married to conspiracy theorists, aggrieved boomers annoyed at mild changes, and people more obsessed with civility than protecting us from the other two groups.

The way passkeys are being rolled out has made me actively resentful of them. Amazon and PayPal just forcibly open an enrollment modal on page load with no explanation, like malware

This is lowkey one of the most important things happening in the Middle East rn and very few people are paying attention to it

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Crossbrace your kallax/expedit shelves in the back if you're going to store records on them vertically, because they will shear under their own weight with a gentle bump. God help you if you're using it for laserdiscs.

“The UN can’t stay silent watching what’s happening in the world. Trump invades Iran and bean prices spike in Brazil, corn prices rise in Mexico, gas prices rise elsewhere. It’s the poor who pays for recklessness of wars that nobody wants” — Lula da Silva, president of Brazil

So there's this thing where P.N. 03, Vanquish, and Pragmata form a sort of notional trilogy, but I don't know who to tell this to because nobody played those first two games

The Israeli army struck civilians in the Lebanese city of Mayfadoun. And then, the Israelis double-tapped the medics who arrived onto the scene. And then, they triple-tapped the next wave of medics. And then, they did it one more time for good measure.

Amazing that Apple's approach to anything even approaching consenting porn is "not on your life, you filthy pervert" and its approach to nonconsensual porn is, basically, "well, what can ya do"

Just a reminder that Philz's sold the company to private equity in such a way that the employees wouldn't get their employee stock payouts, and they lost all the money they invested. They got a $525 "bonus" instead. www.kqed.org/news/1205127...

keep honking! I'm taking your feedback seriously and considering next steps

They're calling it the best democracy ever. www.ft.com/content/7529...

I've seen comments on other websites saying this is a good use of AI because typesetting is just grunt work. No it isn't! There is a lot of skill and craft to good typesetting and this is aiming to take jobs from people to automate what should be a human process! This sucks!

It shocks me how many businesses still don’t seem to get that Trump’s cultural revolution did not actually happen

This is structurally identical to a Da Share Z0ne post

Honestly wasn't expecting Benn's Flock Safety stuff to unearth this sort of thing

Heartbreaking: even save points are struggling in this economy.

That's a storm-match. Strike it, and for as long as you can keep the flame lit, it will rain

just found out this is watercolor and spent like a good five minutes pissed off

I tend to think the whole "every accusation is a confession" slogan is a bit overblown but it's really easy to believe when every vox populi that gets published in their favor is some kinda op.

the terrible nier gacha has a private server in the works which i would not ordinarily mention but this is the first domino that has led to a genuine japanese/american race war breaking out on twitter in the last 24 hours because elon turned on post translation by default

Excuse me! Mods! MODS! This isn’t Non-Sexual Nudity!!! This is Sexually Explicit (cartoon)!!!!!!

It is crazymaking to listen to the right claim Orban's loss means he was never an authoritarian when people in Hungary feared that opposing him would immiserate their families www.nytimes.com/2026/04/13/o...

This is NUTS www.thehandbasket.co/p/trump-usai...

⬅️This is my fursona. His name is "foul beast". He loves eating dirt.

Being confronted by millions of people telling you they're broke & can't afford the cost of living and telling them, "Actually you're richer than ever, look at my charts" is peak economist behavior.

guy who only knows i18n, trembling: and... this 'l33t' you speak of?

Just 3 days ago, the story broke showing Flock employees viewing camera feeds in a private community center, including but not limited to the children's gymnastics room and daycare areas.

Another example of Jim Crow 2.0 smdh apnews.com/article/new-...

People have been shocked that an AI company is offering chats with an AI Jesus for $1.99/minute but it's important to remember and respect the fact that a core part of American evangelicalism is being financially defrauded by people who claim to speak for god

Do you guys want a giggle? Quickly scroll down to the bottom before the screenshots load in and read the AI disclaimer at the bottom. Conjure a mental image of what the game might look like mechanically and visually with that long disclaimer. Then scroll back up and look at the gameplay footage.

We keep imagining that mental health care is “extra” or somehow frivolous; we keep imagining that the mechanisms of trauma are less cruelly fastidious than those of cancer. But reality is what it is, and when care is withdrawn, those who need that care sicken and die.

Mexico—a nation with 1/17th GDP of USA—is rolling out universal healthcare to its 130M citizens. Starting April 13, Mexicans 85+ will have access to universal healthcare. By Jan 2027, Mexico will expand universal healthcare to all people, with full coverage of drugs, lab tests, etc by 2030. 1/2

An mRNA treatment for PANCREATIC CANCER was in trials, among many other uses. Choosing to end this research is choosing to sentence millions to an early, painful death

I like how wikipedia uses the infobox for cars here

The AI industry basically sold the idea that what they're building is an evil demon that will kill us all *as a marketing strategy.* And then they released an actual product that drives some proportion of people who use it insane. Good luck!

I made a point years ago that if you actually believed the things Altman was saying – if you actually took his own claims about what he was doing at face value – the logical response would be "someone needs to take this guy out."

interesting that when a movie with female protagonists does poorly the response is to cancel upcoming projects with female protagonists and when a movie with female protagonists is a huge hit the response is to cancel upcoming projects with female protagonists

We thought we were living in a cyberpunk dystopia but this is actually straight from Warhammer 40K. The machine spirit must be appeased using the proper rituals. Blessings affixed with purity seals will keep the cogitator functioning.

One thing that's easy to miss about the just-released House of Hikmah is that the Islamic Scholars are known with the same awe and reverence as superheroes in Western culture. It'd be hard to grow up without learning of the exploits of some of these characters. gameobserver.com/house-of-hik...
