“it’s giving racism to be a humanist” all time pro ai take

your core users are people who have already demonstrated a willingness to abandon a more popular social media site for another, in the most part for disliking the politics of the people who run it. write this on a big whiteboard somewhere in the office

all ships must be designed to the king’s specifications, starting with our prize: the Vasa

it's quite an admission to say your ethical positions are compromisable if they are unpopular

Conservatives being more upset about the Cracker Barrel logo than school shootings sort of proves our point.

irony and sarcasm is going over the heads of everyone reporting on the Kirk suspect

the year is 2034 a fight breaks out on campus during a heated discussion "guys guys stop! this isn't what Charlie would have wanted! we have to tolerate each other and be nonviolent!"

Sam Altman: I see humans achieving omnipotence using dark matter by… 2030 maybe? That’s if OpenAI is given a quadrillion dollars Theo Von: Yeah Altman: Or, we may become a race of slaves, genetically modified to be harvested by robot spiders. That’s if OpenAI doesn’t get the money Von: Right

one cool trick marketers love: liberals hate how much you love our product, buy now and prove them wrong

This is the perfect AI article. This is exactly the level of understanding of what “AI” means and what programmers do to expect from an AI booster article.

conservatives talk about how "they don't let kids pray in school anymore" as if a bunch of children are begging to say grace before lunch when what they really mean is the teacher reading from the bible instead of a textbook all day

Whitehouse dot gov is sort of a gambling site now too.

Pastel themed cozy serial killer stories where we all get to just have FUN is straightforward sicko shit. The sort of podcasts they'd have in Robocop.

is it time for your right wing family to stop snubbing every embattled minority?

imagine saying 20 years ago before these global social media forums launched that people need to spend more time arguing with intransigent strangers they will never meet in life this is not how we should spend our precious time on earth

solving chemtrails is easy: you just get “them” to stop, and since they don’t exist it’s windmill tilting forever

an honest question here is like, what is social media for? most of the best folks I followed from Twitter are here now so, it doesn't really matter to me what the user curve looks like

were the cell system alerts working? did people just ignore them

no no I meant I’m fiscally conservative about *you*, pretty loosey goosey about me tho

"America First" means paying the people who refuse to do the jobs that need doing to arrest the people who are doing them. Every ICE Agent and prison guard could be out building houses or harvesting food, but they would rather kidnap and abuse the people doing the honest work they won't do.

the stories that come out of the ICE camps are going to look like the stories that come out of every camp system; rampant corruption, epidemic disease, physical and sexual abuse on a vast scale, a death rate far higher than normal, and medical abuses.

in the us you turn your sink on and potable water comes out, this is a miracle of science and engineering created and maintained by governance, regulation and functioning law

the rich don't care that us institutions are crumbling, they're cashing out as fast as they can, accelerating the rot, and eying property in more functional jurisdictions

is anyone on the right not too stupid to recognize price controls? don’t they hate that?

Then impeach, you goddamn coward. thehill.com/policy/defen...

the most obvious sign Iran didn’t pursue a weapon is that DPRK beat them to it years ago, with way way less resources. Anyways after Ukraine, Iran, Libya… why should anyone ever trust “the west” on nonproliferation ever again

Hi everyone! It's me, Francis Fukuyama. History's just getting started! 😃 buckle up! 😃

why should anyone trust diplomatic overture from the US ever?

how many Americans dislike their government, and how many of those think the problem will be fixed by being bombed by China? great that’s how Iranians feel

The thing about the Khalil case is that it's very very good that he's free now but you can't have it take three months between "the government kidnaps you off the street for no basis reason whatsoever" and "a judge makes them let you go." You just can't.

Communicating and writing is a skill, you can develop it or let it atrophy like anything. Tools like calculators make the basic operations simple and faster to allow higher level productivity, how do we get LLMs to a similar place where it isn’t expected to do “all the work” but the basic parts

it’s really cool that NYT talks about Mamdani like he is going to seize Wall Street for the democratic republic of New York instead of like, increase social housing spend by 3%

this level of inquisition should be bog standard for interviewing representatives of the government and Tucker makes MSNBC look like state media

it should be incredibly illegal for a LEO to cover their badge this can't possibly be contentious, it should be seen as an act so shameful an officer next to them starts an arrest

I keep saying it, AI actually is a perfectly useful tool for middle managers, who were doing a perfectly useless job

what of the last like 10 years of history makes anyone think Congress would reign in a Trump military act? those guys want war with Iran even more than he does. they gave RFK control of the CDC and FDA. be for real
