Not a projection. 450 Torches. Carried up the mountain and place correctly by 10 residents.

I told Discord that LLMs are a planet-killing plagiarism machine that also rot the brain and spit out wrong answers, and also that I am exhausted with having to kick AI out of every online/computer-based place I use. I told them I probably wouldn't bother; I'd just stop using it.

Alla som kan ett visst ämne inser att just deras expertis inte kan ersättas med AI. Vilket förklarar varför politiker och broligarker tror att vi alla kan ersättas med AI.

New: we've obtained material explaining how an ICE surveillance system, called Webloc, works. Draw shape on a map, see all phones available there, follow them home. All without warrant “This is a very dangerous tool in the hands of an out-of-control agency.” www.404media.co/inside-ices-...

See why do we have to have like bigots and Nazis and hating other people for stupid ass reasons when I just looked at my planet from the surface of another planet and I don't even have shoes on. I'm in Soft House Clothes and slippers looking at my planet on my phone. What.

wait, if I'm reading this right, not only is high fat cheese protective against dementia but so is whipping cream, my favorite food. Best news of the year!

I love the fucking internet, part 972964386: "One Night In Bangkok" arranged and performed as a 16th century chanson. youtu.be/i3jHv0GZB9U?...

Won't watch new season of Star Trek Strange New Worlds, though I like the show. Also won't be watching Starfleet Academy. The progressive ethos of Star Trek does not align with its corporate ownership. Jean-Luc would cancel his Paramount+ subscription. hugoclub.blogspot.com/2025/11/the-...

Entering my Luddite era. Not luddite as anti-technology. Luddite as in desiring to work in harmony and honesty with technology I understand and respect and maintain. Luddite as in fighting against those who warp it into monstrosity and leverage it against humanity and community and the common good.

Ibland tänker jag på hur vi fildelare beskylldes för att finansiera terrorism. I dag investerar ägaren till Spotify pengar i digital vapenindustri. Varken artister eller världsfred har verkat tjäna på det lagliga alternativet. Nästan som att systemen var riggade från början.

If writing is so easy why do people argue that they can’t do it without the pablumatic verbiage extruder And if it’s so difficult then why do people think it’s not labour and writers are not workers

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Great thread on why the Nordic model of sex work is an abject failure and the only approach that has ever actually improved sex worker safety is full decriminalization

The number of parents who gasped when we told them no, we could not tell them what their kids checked out because their kids have a right to privacy! We offered “one book cards” to kids whose parents wouldn’t agree to let them have a card. They could take out a book at a time. The FURY.

Phones and laptops must work for the users who own them, not act as “bugs in our pockets” in the service of governments, foreign or domestic. www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

It feels like an insult to the notion of objective reality to invoke “experts” to weigh in on a numerical fact you can verify with a pocket calculator

I read 1984. And Fahrenheit 451. And A Brave New World. And The Handmaid‘s Tale. And The Giver. And The Road. And The Lottery. And The Parable of the Sower. And The Hunger Games. I know what I’m seeing.

Förtidsrosta du också!

In the end, AI will probably make social media collapse on its own. Bots interacting with bots, drowning out genuine human interaction. What’s left is just AI ping-pong and we’ll have to start meeting over coffee instead.

oof, this (and the next post in the thread)

Please could you help me to spread the word about my swashbuckling adventure story with a pirate protagonist, sapphic romance, with a dash of werewolves and vampires? My latest novel THE VENGEANCE is available in all formats geni.us/thevengeance Perfect for escaping the horrors of our time.

This is the best product listing copy I’ve ever read

Looking at buying a new cardigan for the colder seasons, not finding anything I like. Thinking to myself I should just knit one and get it exactly how I want. I haven't knit anything more substantial than a sock in... forever.

Rikspolischefen sa precis att det inte finns ett normalt användningsområde för Signal. Bra sätt att misstänkliggöra det enda kommunikationsmedlet som verkar stå upp mot bakdörrar. Läser ni på om krypterad kommunikation så att ni kan hålla staten borta från era ”DMs”?

Personally I hope we find out that what Gollum was doing while wandering about looking for the ring was either solving a series of cozy murders (Precious We Wrotes) or performing in an incompetent hobbit amateur dramatic troupe (The Ring that Goes Wrong)

You sure about this, Google?

Okay, deep breath. I need your help. My friend set this up for me because financial stress is making the whole cancer stress a lot worse. www.paypal.com/pools/c/9gAG... If, like me, you don't have money atm, if you have read and enjoyed any of my books, please can you tell people about them?

Didn’t want to believe this was true. It’s true.

Åh, hittade en youtube-länk, så kunde bädda in här: www.youtube.com/shorts/0LPXa...

please post two characters who bring you joy and happiness

Well that does suggest what the word would be.

Testing a theory: - Would you prefer a day of back to back meetings working from home, or working from the office but your team is out and you don't have to talk with anyone all day? - Are you or do you suspect you are neurodivergent?

Listening to a podcast about the Hawks Nest Tunnel disaster. A construction company knowingly forced their mostly black workers to drill under such unsafe conditions that most of them died of silicosis (a form of miner's lung) within 2-6 months. And it got me thinking.🧵

I'm trying to think about how I would have reacted if shown this headline five years ago

Det var en gång en minister Vars namn var Johan Forsell Som politiker var han bister Men som förälder var han väl snäll Han sa “Tvi vale för ligister!” Han sa vem som blir kriminell Men han glömde nämna nazister Så det blir ett allvarligt samtal ikväll

This is exactly what the internet is for.

I've seen a few "anyone who thinks they can stop this bill is naïve" posts this morning, and like... okay? Your point? I don't fight based on whether or not I think I can win. I fight based on whether or not I think it's right. Letting them coast into this horror show without a fight is WRONG.

Can I brag, just a little? I finally got my ass to the blood donation center after slacking off for two whole years. I've been feeling tired, I couldn't make it work with my training, all sorts of silly and not so silly reasons. But today! Blood donation done. Go me!

First morning run in Mariehamn, we're here for @archipelacon.org, and how considerate of Zombies Run to give me an episode where they go to Finland for the occasion. How'd they know? #zombiesrun #eurocon

This was just four months ago.

Student: Hey, I’m at university, what’s up? Government: Prepare to be shocked and offended! Student: OK. Can I be rude to bigoted lecturers in return? Government: Absolutely not! Student: Why? Government: Because they have power and you don’t. Student: OK, I am shocked & offended.
