I have ideas like…every thirty seconds. Most of them suck. But many of them have been scaffolding for ideas I am actively trying to come up with, and a computer cannot give you that, no matter how much of other artists’ blood sweat and tears you feed it.

Never. There is no good use for genAI.

I just saw someone yell “they’re just using it to generate ideas!”

And

I hate to say it

But if you work in the ART DEPARTMENT and you need a death machine stuffed with your colleagues’ work to give you ideas

Quit.

Screenshot from a Tumblr post by ralfmaximus: Mozilla, in its finite wisdom, embedded LLM bots into recent versions of Firefox for the vitally-important purpose of… naming tab groups. Now, some users are noticing CPU and power usage spikes caused by a background process called Inference. Ugh. Reminder again for Firefox users to visit your about:config page, search for the browser.ml.chat.enabled key, and set that to false: If yours says true then double-click it until it reads false. Doing that turns off the AI chatbot features in Firefox, but also the stupid new LLM tab-naming feature that's rolling out

Hey Firefox users.

"Any pronouns?"
"All."

"They go by they/them"
"But you said any pronouns"
"No, Any goes by all."
"All pronouns?"
"They/them"

"What about him?
"WHO GOES BY 'HIM'????"
"No, that's Any. Who goes by xe/xir."

Well alright but surely it can't be that blata— lmao

Instead of starting with a complaint, I approached this as a Confused American Consumer who doesn't understand why they can't buy things off a website they use

The call center rep immediately asked if it was about Steam/itch

In a shocking turn of events, many of the people who said they wanted "free speech" actually just wanted to be the ones in charge of which speech is free.

one important thing about the trans sports canard is it’s a trial balloon to see how chickenshit the opposition is. if we cave on that they’ll attack a less vulnerable group (already happening actually) and the whole coalition will get carved up one by one

It’s almost like actually humanizing trans people—letting us be in the room—creates real change and deescalates the culture war instead of treating as pawns to elicits support over, problems for being “too controversial”, or villains for being vocal about our issues to people who aren’t listening.

What's it gonna take for everyone to realize the occupant of the white house is fundamentally anti-American?

this is a historic level of bad and we are only beginning to learn about what is happening.

i hope journalists uncover the true story, because the whispers i’ve heard in dc make my skin crawl and stomach boil.

It’s just fucking corruption. It’s just capture of spending to line his pockets. Crony spending lining the pockets of glorious ruler’s buddies is the hallmark of any strongman authoritarian government and ours is no exception.

DEADNAME AND MISGENDER

A TRANS PERSON YOU DON’T LIKE

YOU ARE SHOWING EVERY TRANS PERSON YOUR SUPPORT OF US IS CONDITIONAL ON YOUR APPROVAL OF US

fuckin’ knock it off ya dinguses

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

This is truth. SO many of you have no idea the sputtering, wild-eyed meltdown you would trigger.

Criticism means nothing coming from marginalized person; they've already decided we don't matter. But YOU? You're supposed to be on THEIR side. And I can almost guaranteed they just assume you are.

It really says something about the cis ability to imagine trans internality that they invented "puts on a ball gown and makeup before anything else" as the Standard Transgender, and it took internet trans communities to popularize the idea of boymoders

Oh my god.

They removed "transgender" from the page about Trans woman Sylvia Rivera's page at the National Park service.

"Sylvia Rivera began fighting for gay and _____ rights"

WOW.

the crisis of masculinity is that no one has any idea how to define masculinity in a way that is not "absolute loser shit, just the most pathetic shit you've ever seen"

I have to show you all one of my favorite magic the gathering cards ever:

I strongly suggest that if you dislike this feature, you write a quick ticket saying so. Annoy the fuck out of them.

I just saw a post alleging that among the “tells” a post is written by ChatGPT is use of an em dash—not to be confused with its younger sibling the en dash, or lil’ baby hyphen—and frankly fuck that.

The noble em dash is maybe the most versatile punctuation—I use it constantly.
