the ai situation is a nice summation of how capitalism's deepening crises and cannibalisation are also a way by which it launders its own reputation and protects itself. everyone is constantly nostalgic for the exploitation of ten years ago

Jokes on Charlie Downes, I don't think anyone should be British.

i think it becomes even funnier in the wake of the prequels

The explicit prejudice of British/English nationalism is being mainstreamed in a chilling way by much of the media.

It stands in sharp contrast with the inclusive, outward-looking civic nationalism that Scotland's independence movement has shown is both possible and compelling.

Sorry, she was dating WHO.

if the richest man in the world, is a snivelling miserable friendless garbage loser why does anyone think hoarding wealth is aspirational

If they put Asajj in da movies I will yell so loudly.

Between Embo and confirmation Mando is going to beat the shit out of Stinky, I'm back in.

Motorsport Mismanager continues as Chia shares team principal duties with Rob on a probationary basis. Hopefully she stops abusing mechanics with fast stops! twitch.tv/remapradio | www.youtube.com/live/3yHxcIn...

"let me explain" lol, how about you shut the fuck up and get the weans vaccinated, how about that.

if this is gonna happen in under a month to every multiplayer game that has almost a decade in the oven then at the very least it should just be open sourced and left to the laid off devs to do whatever with. literally the least you can do

Let Embo kill some guys with the hat, don't be cowards.

Mfer's heard I wasn't feeling much about the teaser trailer, so they went and put Embo in it.

This is true, but because I've been paying attention I note that Greens For HS2 won its battles in the internal party democracy and changed the policy in that regard, while the Labour party, who James Ball supports and is writing in support of here, got into power and didn't undo any of the damage.

I understand framing the AI bubble RAM supply crisis in terms of stuff like video game consoles because nerds can conceptualize that but the framing does really undersell the sheer magnitude of how it's going to fuck up everything that even touches a computer.

The cops calling these "groups with differing views" is pure moral cowardice and a total dereliction of any duty of care they might pretend to have. This was a group of masked up, tooled up nazis turning up at a gig to attack the people attending. We have every right to community self-defence.

There's a Grim New Expression: "AI;DR" The slang is a sign of how overrun the internet is with AI slop — and how the real humans using it are fed up.

In the grim darkness of the 21st century there is only: don't post AI slop at me, loser

Parker Molloy O @parkermolloy.com • 19h What's the purpose of saying that there's no position so extreme that someone could lose your vote? Especially this far out? You're effectively giving possible candidates the all clear to move as far right as they'd like. This seems foolish. 29 1 127 2.6K Natalie Wynn @contrapoints.bsky.social • 18h This thought experiment where the DNC chooses a candidate based on a negotiation with progressive commentators is fiction. I'm engaging with the grim reality of the American electorate. Look who they just put into office again. No one's waiting on my permission to run.

Parker MolloyO@parkermolloy.com • 18h That's a strawman. I wasn't arguing that the candidates sit down and negotiate with anyone before jumping in the race. I was making a point about the aggregate effect of publicly surrendering your conditions. Those are completely different claims. 4 1011 • 1.3K Parker MolloyO@parkermolloy.com • 18h The whole Democratic electability argument in 2016 and 2020 was built on the idea that who you nominate matters because swing voters have limits. Sanders would lose moderates, the argument went, so you've got to pick someone those voters won't reject. 6 108 668 ... Parker Molloy O@parkermolloy.com • 18h Okay, so if voters having conditions and limits is a real thing that shapes how candidates behave... why would you publicly announce that you have zero conditions? You're telling every future candidate they don't need to do a single thing to earn your vote. 5 10 20 • 724 •.. Parker Molloy O@parkermolloy.com • 18h That's all I was saying. Not that candidates negotiates with commentators before running. That when you broadcast "I'll take literally anyone," you've opted out of the one thing voters actually have: leverage.

A bit frustrating that I asked @contrapoints.bsky.social a straightforward question about the strategy of unconditionally pledging your support regardless of policy stances, she replied with a strawman, I called that out and elaborated on it, and she then responded to a bunch of people (but not me).

ChatGPT promised to help her find her soulmate. Then it betrayed her ChatGPT sent screenwriter Micky Small down a fantastical rabbit hole. Now, she's finding her way out.

Just a reminder that ChatGPT cannot betray anyone because it doesn’t have feelings or motives or thoughts

"Um, yes."

Hilary Cass here arguing for children to be prevented from being known by a preferred name or getting a haircut in case it encourages them to continue later in life to transition.

Hilary Cass acts like gender variant children should have the transness hazed out of them.

fellas, does it get more or less credible the more times you claim to know nothing while also being in charge?

Consistently we're being asked to accept the premise that the Prime Minister is so unaware of his surroundings that the question evolves from his judgement being too poor to whether he has the basic awareness to hold the position.

Amanda, the nu-money woman in the Real Housewives of Beverley Hills, is completely bonkers. It's so funny how her "work" is obviously a scam, and how raging LinkedIn's Boz is about it.

I had to get a new hoover because I'm clumsy and dropped my other one, and the suction is so much better it feels like these carpets have never been clean before, this is the excitement of being in your late 30s.
