Very true....

This here’s a man of the people.

KI frisst Strom: Bis 2028 wird über 50% der Energie in Rechenzentren für KI verbraucht - sagt die MIT Technolgy Review. Das kleinste Meta-Modell braucht 57 Joule pro Antwort, das grösste 3’353 Joule. Der Energiehunger explodiert. #KI #Energiehunger www.technologyreview.com/2025/05/20/1... 1/3

AG Bondi, here’s that correction you requested.

"To become mature is to become kind" is actually beautiful.

She is not doing well

Lawless Russell Vought thinks he can nullify a law by deleting it from an FAQ www.govexec.com/pay-benefits...

Das Hamas-Massaker am 7. Oktober 2023 in Israel hat das Sprechen über den Antisemitismus verändert. Aus Sicht unseres Autors greift der Antisemitismus jene Juden besonders an, die Israels Regierung kritisieren (F+) 🔗 www.freitag.de/autoren/tome... 📝 Tomer Dotan-Dreyfus (@tomerdd.bsky.social)

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

It’s really neat that for awhile pundits like this were saying “why can’t Zohran clearly and directly denounce the violence of Hamas?” and when he clearly and directly denounces the violence of Hamas they go “but he didn’t do it with any poetry! It wasn’t beautiful! I demand panache!”

Feel free to attribute the following to a former OMB General Counsel: The supposed "new legal analysis" is, to use a technical legal term, horseshit. What the law actually says is that when Congress enacts a law ending a lapse, furloughed employees get paid at the earliest date possible. Period.

She wasn't really "deported," was she? She was in international waters when Israel illegally boarded her ship, detained her, and then bought her into Israel before shipping her to Greece. That sounds like a lot of things but "deported" is not one of them.

I've been trying to put my finger on why ICE/DHS lies feel so much more outrageous than normal cop lies, and I think it's because they don't lie like cops, they lie like aggressively stupid criminals

This is in keeping with the administration's overall approach to excellence: why do a good job when a shitty job will work just as well

In other words: We're using violence to protect votes from violence. Fucking for virginity it is.

Dunno man, seems a little misleading to write an article about Trump describing activity in Portland and Chicago as “insurrection” with a 33 year old photo of a burning donut shop taken in the 1992 LA Riots (sans caption explaining that) as the header on all your posts about it.

First, one group. Then another. Then your group. That's how it works.

Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. trib.al/9Sxu9IN

Schumer: That issue that MAGA Mike keeps talking about—illegal immigrants getting health care. It’s an effing lie. The law says that federal dollars cannot go to illegal immigrants under Medicare, Medicaid, or the ACA. And I said that to him in the room. I said, You’re lying. He smirked.

Zum Abschluss bringt ihr dann noch das Leidnarrativ, das man sich als Journalist tunlichst verkneifen sollte. Ob und woran ein Autist leidet, hat nur er selbst zu sagen. Niemand sonst. Ich z. B. leide oft an schlechten Artikeln über Autismus. Selten aber am Autismus selbst. 9/9

I just saw someone use the abbreviation “AI;DR” and I’ll be laughing for a while.

The most powerful person in the world apparently decided to use potentially lethal force on Americans on the basis of a five-year-old Fox News clip that crossed his television screen. www.rawstory.com/2674157769/?...

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson: "Private establishments can partner with us to make it clear that private property is private property and ICE cannot enter establishments without a valid warrant ... If Congress will not check this administration, then Chicago will."

Greta Thunberg: "I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment. Trust me. But that is not the story. What happened here was Israel… continuing to worsen and escalate their genocide and mass destruction with genocidal intent, attempting to erase an...

The "AI" research community: 1) Claims to be building "everything machines", doesn't acknowledge that that means what they're doing is untestable (see Gebru & Torres 2024) firstmonday.org/ojs/index.ph... >>

6) Wants the rest of us to believe that their work should now be incorporated into everything we do, in every sphere of our lives. NO THANK YOU.

He's apparently always been that much of a jerk. His technique is just to speak loudly and insistently and not let anyone else speak.

i too cry when cutting up an onion but it’s with the happiness of knowing i’m releasing the joyful soul trapped within

Stephen Miller is a dangerous madman living in a world of his own making. I really can’t believe there isn’t more discourse around the madness we are witnessing each day.

Dude, do they have oxygen on your planet?

Greta Thunberg, deported to Greece, says the targeting of the Sumud Flotilla is "not the story" @teenvogue.com — instead, she says: "Israel once again violated international humanitarian law by preventing aid from getting into Gaza while people are being starved.”

3 Dinge, die mich an der heutigen Umsetzung von KI stören: 1.) KI-Angebote, nach denen niemand gefragt hat & die oft von der eigentlichen Funktionalität eines Dienstes ablenken zB: Nein, Adobe, ich will das PDF einfach nur lesen. Ich brauche kein nerviges Popup, ob ich eine KI-Zusammenfassung will

That she's cool as fuck?

the genius ceo of the world's hottest tech company here offers the stunning business insight that openai will "have to somehow make money"

Dacia made a boxy, low-cost EV that weighs less than 2,000 lbs, and just in case that wasn't enough to win me over they called it the "Hipster" www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new...

Guess how many times Republicans have tried to negotiate with Democrats to save health care? None. Zero. Not once. Republicans would rather shut down the government than lower health care costs.

Italian journalist abducted from the flotilla describes how Israeli prison guards unleashed dogs into cells, poured bleach on mattresses, and overcrowded cells such that it was impossible to lie down. x.com/paolomossett...

We cannot act like this is normal.

Parents.

The dementia-addled president is deeply delusional and his poor mental state is going to lead to American citizens being hurt or killed.

apple.news/A1k0SYsncTYW... Good piece on the very fake idea that Charlie Kirk was any sort of free speech hero. Reader, he wasn’t.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram. Community action works. Source: www.instagram.com/reel/DPZL2AL...

Wild fucking scenes here. This is Americaaaaa

We’ve gone from DEI is bad to being upset that the #3 most streamed artist on Spotify in 2024 will be performing at the Super Bowl because he’s Latino. This isn’t just white identity politics or institutional racism, this is racism as official government policy. thehill.com/blogs/in-the...
