Kinda Fucked Up that in our lifetimes we've gone from "never share personal info on the internet" to "hand over your identity to the most incompetent corporations imaginable".

I dont think any Dem who votes to give ICE a dollar should ever get a single vote again tbh

*hits blunt harder* Baseball= turn based Football = turn based Soccer= real time Hockey = real time Basketball = real time

so i talked to one of the bushes at the super bowl www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/...

This is on Musk and he should be held accountable.

To repeat. -- And to repeat: The political faction saying we must all have to log legal ID before speaking or accessing speech on the Internet, and the political faction who believe transgenderism is a dangerous mental contagion that spreads by speech about transgenderism, are the same faction.

how cool would it be to have a lunar research station with a bunch of scientists doing cool shit. well this guy wants to put 1,000 Bitcoin losers there

“No matter how Ring and other surveillance tech companies may downplay it, there’s no world in which finding lost dogs is the final end-use for this technology.”

omg everybody go draw a horse this is what the internet was made for gradient.horse

every single person writing credulously about "elon will put people on the moon" should have to pin this post to their monitor

It could be really bad for Discord if Californians contact the office of the Attorney General to report the potential violations of CCPA and CALOPPA citing the recent breach from a few months back where 1.5tb of user data and millions of IDs were leaked, but who can say for sure?

Since the early days of the space program, astronauts have quarantined before missions because any illness could be disastrous. It’s eminently logical — not “extreme” — for athletes who’ve trained their WHOLE LIVES for one event to take similar precautions in order to stay in peak physical condition

The reality is America is a huge multicultural multilingual country, not a white ethnostate, and venomous white supremacist MAGA crybabies lose it whenever that reality becomes unignorable. We should always seek to increase, not decrease, their discomfort. www.the-reframe.com/hating-the-g...

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

VC, founder, dumbass

i worry that a 5-year stretch of nothing but ads for NFTs, bitcoin, and AI is a long enough gap that this nation's once-great advertising industry will forget how to sell a product people actually want

The media desperately wanted to give the right a cultural moment and the problem is that they have no culture.

if a game turns your cursor into a little gauntlet, it automatically gets +1 point

This is why the are already dropping the felony charges against the 22 folks arrested last week. They don't have the goods and no one to do the work to prosecute.

as always, people who have actually discovered an incredible productivity hack will simply use that productivity hack themselves, not sell their techniques to the masses in one-off classes

in an era when carnivore diet influencers are in charge of the american nuclear arsenal we have to admit the "annoying vegan" stereotype barely ever actually existed and the "all meat diet guy" is real, increasingly omnipresent, and way more annoying and inconvenient to actually be around

Primary every Democrat who won’t fight to abolish ICE. Every one.

NEW: The Trump admin certainly put on a show last week about changing tactics in Minnesota after ICE agents killed Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old VA nurse. Trump even suggested it's time for "a softer touch." Except residents say nothing has changed. At all. www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

I hope folks grasp the fascistic resentment underpinning this shit, and the fact that there is nothing these AI robber barons would like more than to automate human creativity because they resent it and wish to devalue, own, and control it and us.

The current regime took a week to abolish USAID, which is three times as old and was not in the news every day for brutalizing children

With tax season in full swing, here's our reminder that TurboTax owner Intuit spent two decades fighting to prevent Americans from filing their taxes online for free. (Published 2019)

This is a FANTASTIC time to primary your local D electeds from the left.

the magic of the Muppets is that there are two fourth walls. they constantly break the one that reminds the audience they are performers. they NEVER break the one that reminds the audience they are puppets. this dynamic is the key to their entire comedy style

Taking your own food when you’re going TO ITALY. truly the sign of a demented mind

If there's one benefit from all the Republican criminality and corruption it's that you never have to treat them like good faith interlocutors again. Every currently living Trump accomplice should be treated at most to a reflexive "Eat Shit" for life, and that's better than they deserve

I got some flak from a friend a while ago because I said 4’11” isn’t pop star height but I somehow failed to consider the fact that it’s a perfect height to frame with a muppet. I take it back, no celebs over 5’2”

I am disgusted by this company and will in the next month or so be doing the Hater’s Guide To Adobe. I will not forget what this company has done to its customers nor will I tolerate their loose financial language they use to deceive investors about the “success” of their flaccid AI play.

everything is terrible so here’s the swedish chef doing rapper’s delight

Every damn day he does something crazy and the entire MAGA leadership bends over backwards to pretend it wasn't crazy and to explain it away. And then a few hours go by and he comes out and says "no, I did the crazy thing on purpose." And repeat. And the media never seems to remember that.

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

This is really crucial in understanding today's right wing: it is an arena in which you can get attention, and become famous, without any skill or insight or knowledge. All you have to do is say outrageous shit. So it's become a collection bin for all these failed, flailing narcissists.

One of the most successful mangas ever looks like this.

"I want Bobby Hill to take the shot, because Bobby'll put me down clean."

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

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

There's exactly one normal man left on planet Earth.

“military-grade intelligence tactics” “Pattern-of-life” intelligence Bro, you are eating microwaveable Campbell’s Soup for every meal and crashing out in front of the Home2Suites while you’re geared up like you’re in Fallujah

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley. Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo. Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles. Get them out!

The word don't is censored. Don't, or Don T. If you're looking for just some fun proof they're doing control+f censoring

Hey, remember that time I said that pointing out that AI is giving bad data to ICE is missing the point because ICE doesn't actually care if the data is good? Check out how right I am.

While reporting this, I had something happen that's never happened. A comms rep for one of the co's disputed my reporting and said what I was telling them was untrue because it was not in Grok, xAI's chatbot. I was looking directly at the files. And this person was using AI to challenge the truth.
