Amber Isle having a loading screen long enough to make a cup of coffee really adds to the aesthetic!

I’d sooner believe it to be pro-AI actors/bots trying to claim everything in the name of AI so they can further the “AI is everywhere already, just accept it” narrative

Trans women are biological women. Trans men are biological men. Please stop using the phrase “biological” to distinguish cis from trans people. Cis does just fine and you’re also revealing your own ignorance of how biology works, as well as underlying inherent transphobia, even if unintentionally.

This is such a funny satirical piece.

hey it's that time again. do you have data? that you like? is it backed up? do you have automatic backups you've checked are actually happening? in multiple locations? have you done a test restore to make sure the backups work? *even an extra copy on a flash drive is better than no backups*

These sort of blurry photos look interesting to me. I didn't mean to overexpose them but in retrospect I think it adds to the aesthetic.

SUCCESSFUL ARTEMIS LAUNCH WOOHOOOO 🎉

Made an AD account just to keep things nice and separate. This account will be mostly family-friendly from now on!

Renowned game developer Shigeru Miyamoto broke down in tears after his self-financed movie "The Super Mario Galaxy Movie" opened to $48 at the worldwide box office: "Fuuuck dude this movie cost so much money I'm so fucked"

Started playing Amber Isle today!

The whole "free speech" argument of the majority opinion of Chiles v. Salazar is so bullshit. They say it's just talk—okay, so they think it would be fine for a medical provider to say "You should eat Tide Pods to help with your fever," since that's just talk?

We’ll look into ways to take into account the preferences expressed by people who’ve blocked @attie.ai. The team has been making progress towards private accounts. There was a lot of good feedback on the tech at ATmosphereConf this week, and we’ll have more to share soon.

"Ultimately, because the majority plays with fire in this case, I fear that the people of this country will get burned." - Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, the only SC justice against allowing harmful conversion therapy in Colorado.

Today is Trans Day of Visibility, but even after it is over trans individuals will continue to exist and be seen in practically every aspect of your life. They will not “return” to being invisible; they shouldn’t be expected to, and removing them would make life worse in ways that affect all of us.

A lot of people just jump to "AI bad" not fully understanding what this even is. LLMs offer great utility. My phone uses a local model to screen spam calls, for example.

My crude attempt at making a dragon.

It seems to me that the people who claim "AI detectors don't work" are either: pro-AI and don't want other people detecting their lies, or anti-AI and don't want to accept that something they like is AI and they were wrong.

YES

I beg “No Kings” Americans to discuss a general strike. Break your economy. You can’t be serious about ending this regime while you keep spending disposable income and propping up the economy as a consumer. You wanna break it? Stop buying new things. Repair things. Buy used. Don’t eat at chains.

this is turning out to be one of the onion's all-time classics

I just realized that in Epic: The Musical, Suffering and Different Beast make more sense when you see them as the songs after an intermission between acts. They used to feel strange to me for doing more telling than showing, but I now realize they re-calibrate the listener's mindset after a break.

as a culture we have really given "ideas" way too much credit. ideas are a dime a dozen. they happen all the time. the magic is way more in the doing, and the doing's diminished stature is linked to lack of respect for labor and, more recently, skill and expertise.

I discovered that microwaving old dry cookies with a wet paper towel under them and another on top of them makes them turn out much better!

People complaining about the AI feed generator app like it's stealing the job of Joe Feed Generator. Sorry Joe Generator, you're being replaced.

My Miis are already getting along swell.

In Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, you can set your Mii's gender, pronouns, dating preferences, and dress preferences completely independently, including non-binary pronouns and multiple dating preferences. W Nintendo.

This is chill as FUCK

It's so stupid to me that both the far-left and the far-right are spreading hate against Andy Weir. He's just a popular author who writes good books, yet they can't fathom the idea that not everything will either reinforce their political views or attack them. Let a man be successful.

Please stop spreading this rage bait. The quote everyone's angry about, about "crappy identity politics," is not from Weir.

Just saw the movie adaptation of Project Hail Mary! It was spectacular, and it got me crying multiple times. The writing and pacing were great. They cut some content from the book, but the length ended up being two-and-a-half hours so I get it. I recommend reading the book then watching the movie!
