"This use of GenAI is fine because VAs signed contracts to relinquish their rights". Well yeah, have you seen what happens to those who don't want to sign off on this? Can you really call that consent when the alternative is losing (or never getting) a job?

I don't know who needs to hear this, but all four seasons of Beakman's World are on Tubi. One of the best science shows for kids ever produced and one that definitely should be mentioned alongside Mr. Wizard, 3-2-1 Contact, and Bill Nye the Science Guy. tubitv.com/series/30000...

as I like to say, if you can’t enforce your core values at scale then those aren’t you’re core values, scale is

I am ... feeling A Way tonight. I had to get a cane. I'm not even 40 yet and I'm having to turn to more and more assistive devices. This isn't to knock them or people who use them, please understand that. This is just another night of being smacked in the head with a realization that I am Not OK.

No, using AI generated stuff as a "placeholder" on your crowdfunding campaign is not OK either. If the visuals are THAT important to getting your project funded, then you need to pay a person up front for those key visuals and deliver a consistent end product to your backers.

This infuriates me. This is the #1 thing that has helped me with my pain, anxiety, and PTSD symptoms. Now fucking what?

For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore. Our review: https://bit.ly/49bVn01

If Mamdani was able to go against majority Dem wishes and $40mil in funds and still win, just by campaigning as a candidate truly for the people, whats stopping a new party from rising up?

With this said, I am done with the national stage. It is abundantly clear that nobody can be trusted and votes do not matter. Vote blue no matter who? Nah. How about "go fuck yourselves you lying pieces of shit" instead.

Angry at the government? Finding yourself feeling like all is lost? Remember that governments are just humans, and humans can be ... removed from power. Some peacefully. Others perhaps not. But all can be removed.

Democratic senators voted to make sure that there was more money for ICE to harass your community

Won't somebody rid us Virginians of our troublesome Senators?

Just called @markwarner.bsky.social. Had to leave a message. In short: "Hold your ground, keep it shut down, and don't let your constituents down."

Like I'm so mad I could spit. I've seen Democrats for weeks highlight how expensive health insurance is going to be if the ACA subsidies were to expire. And for what, to throw up the middle finger to everyone and hope that the GOP will hold a vote that we all know will ever come?

Vegan, trans, furry. Pro AI. ...what the fuck??? Can you GET more hypocritical? (User is @tifaret.bsky.social)

"Forcing your ideology" is *definitely* not one of those red flag phrases, nope; we totally haven't seen this before from primarily right-wing run projects... Just more to be aware of from KPXC.

Hey folks, the responses to this have reached KeePassXC and they've written a justification post for it at: keepassxc.org/blog/2025-11... But do remember when reading that these are the same folks who talked about "forcing ideology" - please do judge their justifications accordingly.

The CSM election closes tomorrow at 11:00 UTC. Vote now and claim your Metamorphosis frigate in the NES once polls close! #EVEOnline

I see zero reason to pay federal taxes dollars. Zero. Congress isn’t functioning. Exec branch is looting and killing. Now refusing to honor our deals. Stop funding them. Remove the regime. Try. Jail. We don’t have to live like this.

the moment any media replaces any human labor with AI it is dead to me. And anyone with any iota of appreciation for the hard work that goes into their games, books, music, illustrations, animations, etc etc etc should feel similarly

Here's the correct framing regarding AI: AI is evil, the people who use it are evil, it is not inevitable, and there is no such thing and can be no such thing as "ethical" AI. It is a technology that should not exist but, since it does, should not be used. People who DO use it should be shunned.

i just can't, man. i think using ai makes you into a lazy hack. i think using the big main ais makes you into a planet-wrecking, ethics- and license-ignoring moron. i think allowing ai based on "people will lie about not using it" makes you a coward and a liar. these are not difficult to understand.

I can feel the Christmas noose beginning to tighten all too soon 🎃🙅🎄 #OldBearComics #TheBearMinimum

There is no such thing as ethical generated AI. There is no such thing as AI 'art.' AI generated media is theft. Enthusiasm for AI is weird and stupid and yes you should feel bad if you've used it for anything. Give up on it, move on and do something worth time and effort.

You want a better @eveonline.com? Get in there and vote. These CSM candidates help IMMENSELY with steering the game in the way we want it to go.

And again, I’ll reiterate, if you think “but I’m one of the good ones”, or “surely she doesn’t mean ME though”. No, I mean you, ESPECIALLY you, you are the WORST type, the self-deluded fool devoid of principles. I despise YOU above even the most shameless, unrepentant prompt jockey. ^_^🖕

like fundamentally yes, a lot of us just think you're a giant fucking loser for using generative ai, and no amount of making it ethical will change that. back in 2003 we laughed at people who wanted a Make My Level For Me button; now we actually have one and i can only laugh harder.

People can say Jackson did her best. Maybe so. Regardless, though ... millions upon millions of people will be harmed. Folks, why is anyone paying taxes at this point? It only goes to harm us all. This administration, in every branch, hates us all.

it’s quite interesting how these guys will deny any kind of right wing politics cause they didn’t like… say a slur on main or whatever. but like anyone who’s been around for more than 5 minutes can clock their whole deal just from word choice

"Forcing your ideology" is *definitely* not one of those red flag phrases, nope; we totally haven't seen this before from primarily right-wing run projects... Just more to be aware of from KPXC.

"but people might lie about using it" yes and they might lie about not using it except now code has a high-scrutiny and a low-scrutiny path to make it in, and pretending that a human reviewer won't be influenced by the llm attribution or absence of one and review equally is silly on its face

Heads up for anyone who uses @keepassxc.org for password management - they pulled the Fedora/Bazzite thing and are now encouraging AI use. You can see this in the PRs that have been done by Copilot. Might be time to look for a new password manager that's programmed by humans, not vibe coded.

the only gesture i want to do is "kicking the developer in the balls"

if you believe fully autonomous robot butlers are just over the horizon you are actually one of the dumbest motherfuckers alive and we should take your money from you so we can put it towards something worthwhile

Ready for some mistletoe mischief? 🎄🍑 To celebrate my Bluesky return this holiday season, I'm offering five slots for any would be stocking-ed stuffers out there! Interested? Comment below to claim your slot before they're all gone! 😁

Write code to make being human easier. Rip code out if it makes being human harder. Write code to make caring for each other easier. Rip it out if it makes caring for each other harder. Empathy driven development has literally never failed me. It’s done me better than everything else combined

Having been born and raised in Maine, this makes me feel much sadder than it likely should. Yes, I did buy the 2026 copy as a way of remembering it. I grew up using the almanac for goodness sake. www.farmersalmanac.com/end-of-an-er...

Oh this is an easy bet for @garius.bsky.social to win here. In my last job, my boss immediately and harshly punished anyone who talked about what they earned in salary and benefits. She called it "toxic gossip" and people who did it "haters" who wanted to "disrupt the workplace."

I saw a fat bear post so lets start a thread of real pictures of bears for reference. I just grabbed these off google image search. However there are a lot of documentaries on kodiak/brown bears. Brother bear is a great study for drawn shape! Aaron Blaise also has Snowbear for polar bear shapes!

Evil wraps itself in words that seem familiar but to anyone with a heart and soul remaining within them, they ring hollow and empty. They are words not used to communicate, but to echo a banal void where everything that makes us who we are - including life itself - can and will be easily lost.

This is the end goal of generative AI. The destruction of humanity, only leaving a few sociopaths to horde all the resources while everyone else is killed and ground into dust, or trapped in pure banality. This is why we MUST, as a moral imperative, refuse ALL use of AI. No matter how "small."

I desperately need something to take my mind off The World(tm). Anyone got any good city builder or simulation game recommendations? Quirky is excellent; I've got a lot of the more mainstream stuff already.

"Applying our familiar stay factors..." Oh, you mean the factors of "does Trump want us to do this," and, "are we getting more sacks of cash for acting this way?" THOSE stay factors?

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

A collar that trains you, not with shocks, but with compliments. Mistress: "Sit!" Puppygirl: "Make me." Collar: "OMG, your writing is so good! That last story was fantastic. Will you—" Puppygirl: *frantically sits*

Huge news! Pandemic Horde is leaving PanFam and the Drone Regions to pursue a new direction. The Imperium responded to the news by moving deep into PanFam territory to interdict any movements or logistics operations from their staging system. How long do you think they can keep the camp up?

I don't want to feed hours of my voice data into a machine so that it can artificially recreate my voice to match any possible script. Even if I'm making passive income from it. In fact, fuck that. I am an actor. I want to act. I got good at this thing with the intent of doing it my whole life.

Today is Therian Day! I hope all my therian friends have a lovely day! You have lovely ears and lovely tails and Im going to smooch you sooooo many times. Ruffling your head fur soooo much too. Be excessive today, youve been holding back and I can tell~
