DuckDuckGo has added a feature to filter out AI images from search results.

In regards to AI and "antis are gatekeeping" nonsense: 1) It's a flimsy gate, apply yourself to something, develop a skill 2) Some gates exist for a reason. Ideally you'd want the professionals you're working with or relying on to actually know what they're doing

Stop calling Reddit autocomplete dictionaries on crack AI. It’s not. A fucking goomba in Mario 64 is more AI than ChatGPT

I have had one (1) hour of sleep in the last two days, if I don't sleep tonight I am going to turn into a horrible creature and start knocking over wheelie bins

Mental health is a super important thing, and I’m realizing now that I can’t neglect it. As much as I joke and smile, I’m still human. I’ve been having a rough time lately, but I know things will get better. I reached my limit today and left work early as a result. So streams are canceled this week

I love Japan but let’s get real - a nation that only accepts 300 refugees a year and where foreign residents are barley 3% of the population cannot, by any stretch of logic, have a “foreigner problem”

Japanese right-wingers insist foreigners are on a crime spree in Japan. But Tsurugashima city legislator Fukushima Megumi pulled 2024's crime numbers and found that arrests of non-citizens are significantly lower than arrests of Japanese citizens.

I love Clint. Last year a hurricane took out his house and huge amounts of his stuff last year, and this refreshingly honest and positive outlook coupled with that soothing voice is a joy.

Did you miss my concert? Here is a little peak at NEW KAWAII! I am so happy I got to sing this with Kabi~~ 💜 🔗🔽

For the past few months, I have been creating an absolute avalanche of rolling sheep. Created for @rtgame.bsky.social, these have been such a wide variety of fun! Which is your favourite? (I love the Fireworks and Galaxy ones) #rtgame #wooloo

My switch turned into a spicy pillow today, so I had to do an alternate way to do my gym leader battles 😭 I made challengers do their best Team Skull impression then fight me in rock paper scissors 🤣 Thankfully @doctorwolf13.bsky.social is gonna fix it and bring it back to me 🥰

Mr Rin a Din this joke is literally only funny to me and no one else #inkpaintrose

Actually the best life advice I ever got: Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly. A half-cleaned room is better than an uncleaned room. Occasionally flossing is better than never flossing. A 10-minute workout is better than no workout. When it’s all you can do to get out of bed, get out of bed.

Something really wonderful happened with today's broadcast of my show from Channel 292. As we know, there's armed conflict & tension between India & Pakistan. Today I got emails from listeners in both nations. Neither knew, of course, that the other was listening. 🧵1 of 2

yeah, Tokyo and Dublin are pretty similar actually

WHAT?? WHAT THE FUCK HOW IS THIS LEGAL?? Is this true or not???
