This is imo the best Philosophy Tube yet. The subject matter is maddening but it's an important watch. It reminded me of the time my labour MP cited the fucking Cass Report when I wrote to him about not criminilsing puberty blockers. Anyway, this is a must see.

like this is exactly the problem. I love dumb trash but in cases like this it makes people believe rightwing bullshit, like it would be hard to find a person who makes moral decisions against their own interests.

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

(1/3) fun fact: every one of these comics has an unofficial title, which is the name of the folder i save the panels in. so this one's 'feefees' #sanderssides #thomassanders

Every 3 weeks I need to remind people that if you sell things and use pypal you should send an invoice and not ask people to pay you through friends and family cuz THAT will get your account yeeted. i've been labeling my invoices as digital commissions for years. --

"Developers who fully delegated to AI produced working code but failed conceptual quizzes afterward. They couldn't debug what the AI had written for them. They had the output without the understanding."

Incredible how much better I feel when I go to bed before midnight. And yet, I refuse to do it

Tumblr users bullied the staff until they announced revert from enshitiffication changes. The day is good after all

I'm actually so enthralled with this show you guys. Getting likeness in my art is a weak point of mine but these were very fun to doodle!! AAAAA I LOVE THIS SHOWWW I LOVE THE CHARACTERS!!

obvsly as a fan of #sanderssides ive considered making my own sides before, but i used to have no idea what id design them as - until last month when they all just took shape out of the blue. so here's a quick doodle

has bombing a populace from the outside ever spurred that populace to rise up against their own government or is that just a thing we pretend happens even though it never does

Honestly, why would anyone want to watch stories that, instead of flowing organically from lived experiences are doctored to fit the regime.

remus has been yelling this line repeatedly in my head for weeks now, so fine, FINE, I'VE DRAWN IT. hope he's happy now #sanderssides

so much of tech innovation is trying to repackage blatantly abhorrent ideas into forms you don't think so hard about

One of my favourite sides of politics/media.

dumb lil doodle while i chip away at bigger stuff #sanderssides

A British grandmother with a valid visa detained by ICE for 6 weeks. "So why did ICE detain her, and keep her locked up for so long? ICE officers are paid a bonus every time they detain someone. 'Individual ICE agents get money per head that they detain – the guards told me that,' Karen says."

Precies. De leugens van Rutte bleven altijd onbestraft, net als die van Yesilgōz. Terwijl die leugens grote maatschappelijke schade veroorzaakten (toeslagenschandaal, haatklimaat tegen vluchtelingen). Voor partijen als de VVD gelden andere (of: geen) regels bij veel media en in de politiek

Discord advises UK users that they "may be part of an experiment" where instead of their age verification data never leaving their phone, it will now actually leave their phone www.eurogamer.net/discord-advi...

THis is actually a really good illustration of why LLMs are just...kind of not that good at a lot of the things they're sold as being good at: The thing doesn't fucking understand or know what the question is, it's doing pattern recognition and that breaks down on a long enough timescale.

"Discord is partnering with dedicated age assurance vendors" Ok so you're giving our information to some random motherfucker right from the get go? vendorS even. Multiple. Sorry man I don't want to give my identity to some american face ID scanner so they can train an AI to blow up more kids

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”

I made a filterlist for uBlock Origin to remove Generative AI features on websites. Includes blocks for * Google AI Summaries * YouTube Ask button & chat summaries * GitHub Copilot * Facebook AI chat * X's Grok buttons * Deviantart DreamUp * Booru AI images * And more github.com/Stevoisiak/S...

I'm worried that the broader public isn't really understanding the Epstein Files. The problem isn't that everyone in the files is a secret pedophile, it's that all the people are corresponding with him because they *don't care that he's a pedophile*. It's a story of elite impunity.

#sanderssides thanks virge, very helpful

One thing I’ve noticed editing a million podcasts is how often people will use “etc” or “and so on” when in fact their list of examples has completely run out and there is no etcetera

(1/3) janus and logan have surprisingly little canon interactions so their dynamic is a little hard to pin down. but ive got it aaaaall figured out now... #sanderssides

Veiligheid = klimaat en klimaat = veiligheid De klimaatcrisis is een wereldwijde bedreiging voor alles wat leeft. Ook wij zijn volledig afhankelijk van de gletsjers in de Himalaya, de Amazone en andere ecosystemen. Dus het is ook in ons eigenbelang dat we alles op alles zetten om die te beschermen

Trump is giving a deranged, rambling monologue in Davos to an audience stunned into silence. He sounds incredibly tired, his voice raspy; he keeps trailing off into long pauses. It's jaw-dropping. The sanewashing headlines are going to say "Trump Doubles Down On Greenland Demand In Davos Speech"

(1/6) New sasi comic: Movie Night! #sanderssides #thomassanders

Bandcamp bans AI music

Gen AI might be the worst fucking things created in the past 10 years. It adds nothing and it detracts from everything it touches. The only people who like AI are scammers and ppl who want to have naked images of people who never consented. We're not negative enough.

one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny

warm-up doodles of a bunch of assholes #sanderssides #thomassanders

Aaand done. If you have a minute or two, please let know to Discord how AI is garbage :)
