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.

In this age of interweb decay, it's amusing to me that I still periodically find the osteoptimistic warrior and skeleptical friend doing the rounds.
The uncertain power of bones must resonate with people.

Take 2 minutes of your time and watch "The Hyrule Fantasy", a lovely Zelda fan film by french animator Ousmane CissΓ©.

It's an older picture now, and I wish I could find the miniature to take some new photos... but I still really like how this old T-45 suit came out.

Nor would it go well if I said so in Glasgow, or Edinburgh, or Cardiff. Seems to be a theme going.

That's what I'm saying. 'British' doesn't mean 'part of Great Britain' it means 'part of the UK' (that's why Dublin isn't a British city, even though it's part of the British Isles). And yeah, I'd probably get socked for saying it but that is what that word means. We should probably stop using it.

Yeah, that's Great Britain, but I think "British" is a national definition, not geographic.

Isn't it? I thought "British" was the label for being part of the UK, not being attached to Great Britain.

Stanhill, Lancashire, 1764. Wear and carpenter James Hargreaves invents the Spinning Jenny, the first practical spinning-frame, to make the tedious task of producing cloth a little bit faster. He doesn't know it yet, but this will destroy the world.

Spurred by inventions like his, the industrial revolution will transform everything -- work power, the wealth of nations. Society as we know it began here, and it wasn't great for everyone. But a group of weavers and textile workers saw this future coming. And did their best to prevent it.

"Curse you spinning jenny, you ruined everything!" The standard narrative does that LUDDITES were foolish lunatics who, in fear of technology, decided progress was bad, and started hitting it with sticks. But the truth is entire ways of life were being destroyed.

Previously, skilled craftsmen were respected for the time and effort it took to do their work. The entire family usit would form a cottage industry - creating something valuable, and command a decent living. But when a machine can work 10 times faster its owner can charge less for the prodcts- craftsmen couldn't compete and were left out of work almost overnight. 

And as factories became a fixture of the british landscape, these now unemployed labourers often ended up working the factories that had just destroyed their way of life. Britain was the most prosperous nation in history, factory owners became extremely wealthy and influential. But the people doing the actual work saw almost none of it.

Factory work paid little, since "the machines" did "the real work" human labourers were deemed unimportant and replaceable. FUN FACT!: Factory owners preferred to hire ORPHANS since less people would notice if they were maimed or killed on the job!


Now the owners quickly realized the workers might notice they did all the work for almost no pay. If they went on STRIKE or ARGUED FOR HGHER WAGES, this would threaten their tremendous wealth. In 1799, Parliament passed the Combination Act, which made FORMING TRADE UNIONS, COLLECTIVE BARGAINING, AND GOING ON STRIKE ILLEGAL. Organizing against the rich became a crime.

If you were living through it, opposing the industrial revolution wasn't techno-phobia. It was SELF-DEFENSE. The combination act forced unions underground into secret societies. And the greatest secret of all was their leader - Ned Ludd. Ned had been a folk character for years. In one version after being whipped by his master, he smashed two knitting frames in a rage. In more fanciful versions, he then escaped to the Sherwood forest, here he lived among the animals as their king. Some versions specifically call him 'Much Better Than Robin Hood'.

Today we're bringing you The First Union, as told by HBomberguy (@hbomberguy.bsky.social) and illustrated by Skutch (@skutchdraws.bsky.social) It's the dawn of the industrial revolution, and of the way many of us work...

Have you ever heard of the term "Luddite" from an elder?

The cinnamon roll may not be truly perfect, but she came into this world with love in her heart and a desire to improve our lives. She is still beautiful, still too good for us.

A infantryman from France's Demesne Royal. He is wearing an horizon blue dag-edged military coat with a long hood, with a red lining and piping, as well as a matching forage cap and red trousers under a coat of maille. An adrian helmet is slung back behind his head. He is equipped with a long Chassepot rifle fitted with a gilded voulge head, a rebreather, a catridge box, a backpack, haversack and canteen, and a shortsword.

I highly recommend 'Folk Horror: Hours Dreadful and Things Strange' by Adam Scovell, which is basically just untangling this. Your definition is definitely very close to his.

Over 50% of game developers now think generative AI is bad for the industry, a dramatic increase from just 2 years ago: 'I'd rather quit the industry than use generative AI' The latest GDC survey also found that managers are more likely to use generative AI than their employees.

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.
