amazing

you either listen to the Pope or you’re a Protestant, there’s not really any in between, we’ve literally litigated that several times in the past #Schism2ImmigrantBoogaloo

careful, Jesse, you’re on NPR and facts have an unfortunate liberal bias

if they were really concerned AND had any kind of consistent beliefs, they would adopt the V-chip approach like we did with TVs and mandate that parents be allowed to set a content filter on their kids’ devices. then sites, like TV shows, would have to set a content rating

but no, they want control

they did a study recently that it only takes 250 documents to poison a 16-billion parameter LLM, so all these guys had to do was seed the rest places with their Russian bullshit, because AI isn’t actually intelligent or thinking

I seriously need this President-Roslin-during-the-coup level of energy from every Dem candidate from now on:

leave your phone at home when you go to your No Kings event

oh, so the NYT *does* know that word exists. huh. #SpellingBee

its always, ALWAYS, first they came for the trade unionists, and the fact that no one on our side in positions of power can remember that is infuriating

A) kids shouldn’t be on social media

2) the way to enforce that ISN’T the current UK and proposed US solution of making websites validate gov’t IDs

the way is to force Apple, Google, and Microsoft to enforce parental age controls in the OS, like we did with TV ratings, and have browsers filter

The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

they aren’t sending their best

the micro-dick squad hoping to beat up a random dude because they are failures who have never pleased a woman in their lives and have to cover their faces because they know what they’re doing is evil but can’t stop themselves because they’re more addicted to feeling big than being true

feels like the only path forward is hoping for…? Warren Buffet? to spend his billions buying Clear Channel and/or Sinclair and…?

breaking them up and hoping local stations go back to normal fact-based news?

or keep them, make them cover facts (which thankfully have a liberal bias), and hope 😬🤷🏻‍♂️

when the AI bubble finally collapses and everyone who spent a year smugly hyping it suddenly has to come crawling back with their tail between their legs, i just want to say i am not going to be the bigger person about it. i am going to be meaner than you can even believe

seems bad

yep. though we also need to radically increase taxation at the top so the Bribe Jobs are not so lucrative

A meme for these times.

oooh good call - I wish there was a version of this for software product and engineering folks

on the one hand language follows usage and policing it is futile and on the other hand I believe this p strongly & have a similar schtick about calling one’s work “content”

Trump sending ICE agents to Newsom’s press conference is thuggish totalitarian behavior, but more than that it’s deeply pathetic, insecure, and petty.

agreed, and here’s a shameless plug for this week’s episode where we get into a debate over the fact there will never be zero benefits fraud either, and that’s fine, actually, even tho people can’t grok that

Ohio requires buses for private school kids. Public school students have to find their own ride School districts are responsible for transporting private and charter school kids, leaving thousands of public school students behind

"Private" schools are a fiction and menace, they are all frauds built upon the persistent theft of public funds and resources intended for the benefit of children. It is the duty of all good and moral people to work towards the complete destruction of private schools.

will probably end with similar body counts too 🙃

I miss season 2 of the internet when Google actually worked and I didn't have to run baby animal pics through an Al checker and my washing machine wasn't texting me 2-factor auth codes

that escalated quickly from a chat about AI and how terrible it is that people are outsourcing their critical thinking to the theft bots into a full blown argument over capitalism and how I don't think it's worth solving the tiny amount of benefits fraud

😮‍💨

🎙️ The wild idea of paying GenAI to critically think for you turned into a lively debate on benefits fraud, political lies, and whether Kevin's allowed to upend capitalism. 🤔
