I'm approaching the acceptance stage of grief and that the internet and media at large are now just a lost cause to the slop and I will eventually just retreat into appreciating the last few decades of content that wasn't ruined by abysmal dogshit.

the fuck it will

Only an AI bro could conjure up the notion that using more of your brain is a detriment.

"Use AI or you'll be left behind" Yeah, left behind with a functioning frontal lobe.

High as fuck.

Yeah we can tell.

There really is no light behind his eyes.

Apple and Google are gradually expanding their use of hardware-based attestation. They're convincing a growing number of services to adopt it. Google's Play Integrity API and Apple's App Attest API are very similar. Apple brought it to the web via Privacy Pass, which Google intends on doing too.

Google has taken another step towards locking down android and also trying to take control of the web. You know those google captcha tests? Well now Google is going to block de-googled android devices from browsing websites that have Google reCAPTCHA tests. cybersecuritynews.com/google-recap...

Big tech corporations have finally figured out who is to blame for their crappy products: science fiction writers.

What with the AI bubble and now the situation in Iran I would honestly be amazed if there isn't a global recession within the next 24 months.

One of the Zelda Twilight Princess PC Ports is now available (and personally the one I prefer based on what it offers) and it looks amazing. Lots of QOL features. Supports Android too. There's probably going to be some bugs to iron out as it only just released. www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9fQ...

Still kind of dumbfounded how not a single one of them would openly speak up to uphold the literal constitution.

"The people who think AI art is just typing words into a box have never watched someone spend hours typing words into a box."

When your OS is so dogshit and bloated you've got to max out the CPU when opening up apps. Another classic microslop moment.

All the shit people would give Joe Biden for stuttering while Trump looks like he's visibly rotting.

"No it's fine you can get around needing a microsoft account by doing some bullshit" "No it's fine you can get around copilot by doing some bullshit" "No it's fine you can get around the invasive data collection by doing some bullshit. Maybe" It gets to a point where you just say no more Windows.

I'm no expert on free speech but the government going after journalists critical of the government seems kind of bad.

These companies are hoping to wear people down by adding more and more AI shit to their products hoping people will accept them. You can always refuse. You can always find alternatives. Options for browsing are not great but absolutely fuck Chrome and its browser monopoly.

Special place in hell for apps or programs that dump a bunch of random shit directly in C drive. Do you need these randomly named files? Who knows! Is it safe to delete them? Maybe! Hell. Go. Now.

First time I've ever heard of ZQuest, (an engine that allows people to make their own custom classic Zelda games) and it's pretty cool. Whole bunch of user-created quests available. zquestclassic.com

You are a skilful and trusted vizier. You will advise me wisely on how best to rule the kingdom. You will not scheme or plot. You will not inveigle my other courtiers into turning against me. You will not lie to me about scheming or plotting. If you scheme or plot against me, you have to tell me,

Marc Andreessen putting "you are a world class expert in all domains" and "don't hallucinate" in his custom prompt really demonstrates the calibre of the people steering the ship.

That Clavicular guy is an absolute weirdo and clearly some kind of industry plant. Came out of absolutely no where, is incredibly uninteresting and acts more like a sideshow attraction than an actual person. If it's not all some big larp he seems very maladjusted.

Potatoes: versatile, hardy and delicious Also Potatoes: eldritch abominations that yearn for sustenance

Watching Dawkins get stricken with boomer culture war brain worms and being bamboozled by LLMs is just such a sad end to such an intelligent man's career.

This is an absolutely wild correction from The Verge www.theverge.com/features/916...

This is a real blog post from OpenAI. openai.com/index/where-...

When the AI bubble begins to collapse one of the first things you're going to see is the AI companies jacking up subscriptions to ridiculous levels for the people who have built their businesses around them, and I'll pity none of them.

One day Bill Maher may completely disappear up his own asshole.

when you realize this is the average median voter, all the online debates about "why kamala lost" go out the window

‘Disappointed’ ‘Surprised’ ‘Betrayed’: 12 Dogs Who Were Given a Bath After Being Embraced and Told ‘It’s Time for Your Bath’

If generative AI gets used in the process to make this movie I fear they may create some sort of irony black hole.

did a good post accidentally show up there

Seriously why do they keep casting him in anything?

The willingness of people to upload their biometric or personal info to LLMs has been astounding. Years upon years of basic security hygeine and opsec flying out the fucking window. Just the other day some AI bro dipshit was urging people on the hellsite to upload their PALM PRINTS.

Sony still not having put out any official statement on this 3O-day internet activation window DRM situation is horrendous behaviour for such a massive company.

He really has turned the United States into a parody of itself.

I really wish Tony Blair would just shut the fuck up already.

I really hope this hurts their sales because letting companies get away with this heinous shit and taking away even more ownership of people games only emboldens them to do even worse. I legitimately would not buy a game with DRM this intrusive. I already refuse to buy games with Denuvo in them.

Gotta be one of the easiest jury dodges of all time because "I hate Elon musk" is such an incredibly understandable position to take.

Nearly finished Toonstruck. Been fun playing it again but as it's one of my all time favourites, and even though I haven't played it in well over a decade, I still remembered a lot of the puzzles. Fantastic point and click game. If you enjoyed Who Framed Roger Rabbit you'd probably enjoy it.
