No. The Thing is a movie about a bunch of people who all distrust and hate each other trapped in one building as the tension between them slowly builds until it reaches a breaking point. It's a Thanksgiving movie.

I’m not Becoming The Joker, Britain is Becoming Gotham

Defunctland please don't call me out like this....

Incredible to have your case thrown out and then be told you’re not even a real lawyer.

I did not want to be in a toxic relationship with my computer and now I'm in a toxic relationship with my computer

Have been made aware that the one I initially shared was on fact at least watermarked by an Ai company and likely ripped off the work of another I did not see the watermark and I apologize

They turned it off because every grifting ragebait account was discovered to be LARPing.

Geopolitics is complicated.

Every day I work at Big Tech I understand this guy more and more

this is a far more explicit death threat from people with the actual means to carry it out

Key information from this story: "humans generally have a crash, whether they are at fault or not, every 700,000 miles. Tesla has 7 in probably ~300,000 miles." Tesla robotaxis get in crashes at 16 times the rate of human drivers.

whats up my fellow gamers

authors you have the chance to do the funniest thing right now

Linus Torvalds being unfathomably based

That's what really gets me about these conversations, people who treat no as a challenge to be overcome, who try to wear people down, telling us it's inevitable, get used to it. There's an arrogance to the genAI proponent that I find truly detestable, it reminds me of those NFT bros stealing art...

Best part, you can actually ship this kind of placeholder asset and nobody gets angry in fact they really like it (I'll probably keep it in as a cheat mode, tofu mode is fun, it's just Also really handy for debugging combat since it kinda sweeps away distractions so I can see what's happening)

too real lol

Man... VR games you actually have to pay money for are pretty fucked right now. Stupid Slop Sample Scene - Free - 6k Ratings 4.8 Lovingly Crafted Indie Game - $14.99 - 6 Ratings 4.2 -_-

Computers were a skill. They were taught in classrooms as a skill. Skills give you power over your tools because you work them as an expert and that is leverage to multiply externally. And then computers became an A/B tested telemetry-based advertising conduit to brains for SaaS recurring revenue.

It's cool how the origin story for every beloved 80s property is "well Ronald Reagan got children's television deregulated, so there was this show that was designed to sell toys to people that aren't yet fully capable of understanding when they're being advertised to."

"i guess people can turn into spheres now. thats a thing that just happened."

You’ll never find a better distillation of how technology and capitalism fit together in the 21st century.

how does valve expect the steam machine to gain any traction if it doesnt come with microsoft teams pre-installed on it i wonder

hey remember how that one big tech ceo was on a panel in like 2021/22 where someone asked him about how remote work gave a lot more power to the workers and he chuckled and said “yeah well a little recession will take care of that” I think about that often.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

This is so much funnier now LOL

How is Trump in this picture? He is: A) Apathetic to the situation. B) Unaware of the situation. C) Suffering from the aftereffects of several strokes. D) All of the above.

The idea that transphobic ads decide elections is another piece of the manufactured controversy about us. There was never any evidence backing the claim, just “people are saying” repeated over and over. It’s just bullshit.

Was this the best use of my time today? No. Is it the most amusing way I could have spent the last 90 minutes? Absolutely. Pattern is free here: bit.ly/4nGGCGc

as far as i can tell this is what new york is facing right now and im wishing you all the best
