Oh yeah btw the reason why Vine is being relaunched with great fanfare and no Al is because it's jointly operated with an Al company and they probably don;t want to pollute their scrap pile with stuff they've already shat out.

perhaps the most egregious thing that happened with the Future Class was when The Game Awards took money from Old Spice in the name of the FC & simply... pocketed it

it wasn't used to fund Future Class initiatives, it wasn't used to help lift marginalised developers

they just profited from us

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

Do not impliment the AI auto clip tool Twitch has implemented a sign up for an AI alpha auto clip tool. This is very unethical in many ways to not just content creation but also to things outside content creation. I ask twitch to remove this sign up and not engage in any use of AI when it comes to content creation. Facts about AI usage Google’s single Iowa data center alone consumed 1 billion gallons of water in 2024. The first way AI uses water is for cooling. Data centers run thousands of powerful computers around the clock. As these machines crunch numbers and manage data, they generate a lot of heat. To keep everything running smoothly, water is often used in cooling systems. This can mean circulating water through pipes to absorb heat or using evaporative cooling towers that release warm air. Ai is trained to use already created content for training with out user consent. This has already been happening on social media. Twitch's AI clip tool ''claims'' they will not use user generated clips with out consent for training to assume what constitutes as high engagement moments for clip creation. AI data centers now generate 2.5–3.7% of global greenhouse gas emissions, officially surpassing the aviation industry’s 2% contribution while growing 15% annually. It is very important that people speak up and say no to the AI clip tool especially partners and ambassadors as this tool is very harmful to the community. Turning it off as an option is not enough.

Go Tell Twitch to stuff AI right up its ass.

This is what solidarity looks like. Together, we will win.

Hell yes, Pittsburgh. Love Yinz. No Kings.

OMG

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

A screen grab of an AI generated video of a crowd of protesters right before it gets hit by a huge dump of shit by Donald Trump, front and center seems to be a person that looks like the comedian Ryan Kelly.

Wait, did whoever wrote the prompt for that AI slop video of Trump bombing protesters with shit, deliberately put in @ryankellycomedy.bsky.social at 0:10 or is he just so prolific that he ends up there by "accident"?

He can try and hope that no one calls his bluff and forces the plane to land.

Stop using Zoom for this sort of thing! Zoom has HAPPILY turned over data to LEOs before about protesters.

Regular reminder that PETA is a fucking scam which regularly puts down most of the animals it "rescues" and which deliberately manipulates its images and data to deceive donors, not to mention outright lying! They've even claimed milk causes autism!

aaand we are officially in the hide-your-neighbors stage

I think @legendblade.bsky.social feels this on a personal level.

Yeah, but these weren't made while Klan members controlled the government.

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

Hahaha nice, I thought Uyen was only known in the German YT bubble. ❤️

Happy Rapture Day to all who celebrate 💋

Crockett: "I'm gonna honor someone who decided they were going to proclaim I was involved in the 'great white replacement'? Yeah, I'm not honoring that ... it's unfortunate more of my colleagues even on my side couldn't see the amount of harm this man was attempting to inflict upon our communities"

I already threw up once today from having to agree with Ted Cruz.

Vier Bilder. Bild eins: zwei Männer mit Schildern rufen kämpferisch: "Meinungsfreiheit!". Bild zwei: Sie schauen einander begeistert an, sehen sich als Seelenverwandte. Bild drei: Der linke sieht, was auf dem Schild des rechten steht: "Allen soll es gut gehen!". Bild vier: Der linke Mann geht und sagt "Die Meinung nicht."

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've already mailed my physical shareholder's letter of concern to Disney over this shit. Laid out all my concerns to them in terms of how this could impact shareholder interests.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Cannabis-Abgabe in Jena verzögert sich - zwei Meter zu nah an Spielplatz | MDR.DE In Jena darf der Cannabis Club noch kein Cannabis ausgeben - die Abgabestelle liege zu nah an Sitzkugeln und einem Spielgerät im Stadtzentrum, so die zuständige Behörde.

WTF?!?
Ein CSC in Jena darf sein Cannabis nicht an die Mitglieder verteilen wegen Sitzkugeln und einem (!) Spielgerät in 198 Metern Entfernung.
