LRT: take a million of this idiot's satellites and add Kramer (bad tech!)

You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test

Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs)

Good tech.

Would the product inspire new Seinfeld plots? (NFTs, AI chatbots, crypto currency, blindboxes, metaverse land sales)

Bad tech.

We’re owed a few evil people deaths asap. Like 10-12 for Catherine O’Hara alone. Come on fascist scumbags, get to croaking.

Unfriendly reminder, AI is being used to destroy trust. Do not normalize the use of AI. AI can not reliably enhance videos or low-quality images.

This is the quiet replacement of reality. Do not let this be normalized.

"they don't deserve our fear" is a profound thing to say imo & I'm grateful for it

distrust yes caution yes. fear God maybe (proverbs 9:10 though I have long-winded thoughts about the fear of God). these men terrorizing citizens may be a lot of things but they don't know the first thing about God

Cropped screencap from Heated Rivalry showing that Ilya retrieved from the fridge something weird in a Pyrex leftovers container and also the absolute best pickles

Silly, but it makes me very, very happy that Ilya has Grillo's, the best pickles

One of my Radical Leftist opinions is the government shouldn't be able to deprive anyone of life, liberty, or property without due process of law

Imagine what’s happening in the camps.

Now that the White House is using AI to edit photos of their political opponents to create fascist propaganda I’m wondering if anyone could have seen this use of AI coming. Okay I’m hearing lots of people did and they were forced to watch corporations smother the masses with the technology anyways

This is an excellent analogy, because my recollection from grade school is that the pen on the right looks fun and exciting, and then you play with it for a few minutes and realize it's not actually useful for anything and in fact makes some tasks more cumbersome, and never think about it again.

we're getting all the downsides of cyberpunk (social alienation, ruthless hyper capitalism, digital mass surveillance state) but none of the promised upsides (cheap street food, cool jackets, super drugs that make you really fast and strong before they kill you)

For example, an Amazon delivery driver, who sits in a cabin surrounded by AI cameras that monitor the driver’s eyes and take points off if the driver looks in a proscribed direction, and monitors the driver’s mouth because singing is not allowed on the job, and rats the driver out to the boss if they do not make quota.

This is the fucking limit. I had no idea that Amazon drivers AREN'T ALLOWED TO SING

CRUSH this monopoly wtf my levels were already redlining

We can definitely make this the most blocked account here

A lot of people’s problems with injustice and cruelty is that they don’t like being aware of it and would do anything to go back to pretending that nothing is wrong

there needs to be a sex offender registry but for ice guys. you should have to go door to door when you move to a new area and inform your neighbors that you used to be an ice guy. they shouldn't be allowed with 500 feet of a school

Needed that

Oh man, this year's naming of the year from the McElroys is an all-timer. crying laughing repeatedly

Publicly and repeatedly demand impeachment or resign.

If you do neither, go ahead and pack your office because you’re losing your next election.

IMPEACH NOW.

Ballots, tax returns and other important mail may not get postmarked the day you turn it in, Postal Service warns | CNN Politics If you rely on postmarks when casting your ballot, filing your taxes or paying bills, a new US Postal Service rule makes it clear that you should plan ahead.

Why isn't there more shouting about this? This is the USPS undermining mail-in ballots. They find every opportunity to subvert voting and democracy.

WE NEED SOME ORCAS
We're holding out for some orcas till the end of the night
They gotta be strong and they gotta be fast
And they gotta be smooth black and white

I was told at such a young age that I was adopted that I never questioned it much, but jfc thinking now about how I apparently barely made a peep as an infant and that was probably a reaction to being dumped with strangers

A doorknob I dated briefly years ago commented on the fact I was wearing a skirt when we met and also the first time we hung out, something ding-dongy like, I like that, I like chicks who dress like chicks & don't just wear hella pants. Made me laugh and stuck with me

The results are in! People hate AI! But not as much as they hate the people foisting it on them!

i'm fascinated by how much people love and are amazed by chat gpt saying "nice catch!" and "great observation!" because i personally find the condescension and obsequiousness the most skin-crawling thing about how LLMs "talk"

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

Conservatives love AI because it's far easier to abuse a population that can't read, can't write, can't think, and can't tell what's real

it does feel like an intense societal problem that the founder of palantir, the biggest survellience company, thinks like this
