So @josephcox.bsky.social watched over six hours of this deposition featuring DOGE staffer Justin Fox who, when asked how he defined “DEI” kept saying he needed to refer to the EO.
Highlights here:
Just needs a protag figure drawn by Amano and New York is the next big JRPG
not a jingle, but "call pizzaville at 7-3-6-3-6-3-6, not 7-free-sex-free-sex-free-sex" 🙈😅
as a giant nerd who was born in 1984 who finds picking faves difficult, this is pretty much impossible for me.
for those who don't know: it was the year of terminator, last star fighter, indiana jones: temple of doom, gremlins, karate kid, this is spinal tap, neverending story, ghostbusters, etc.
i feel - and say - the same (several times) about designers (all branches) who love to use genAI. a good design relies on the designer's creativity and ability to know when/where to break design rules.
i don't really play fps games and have only heard of marathon in passing (without seeing any screenshots until now too!), and dang that looks really cool
like seriously, wow
Imaging a human saying to you, "i will only ever tell you what i think you want to hear, based on what i know about ppl like you, how you start our conversation, & what you say during it. Sometimes that will sound like truth, sometimes like errors or lies. Now: Let's talk about your medical history"
Maya's story in the new season of #Shrinking is hitting me hard.
AI-generated artwork is officially not eligible for copyright protection after the U.S. Supreme Court declined to review the appeal.
The court ruled that a work must have a human creator in order to qualify for copyright.

One day this stupid thing will work.
there is no way for "mindful use" so fuck genAI
🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work.
This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public.
Please spread the word.

i have not played Pokemon in ages but the new starters are adorable
i did not know about the 2% back on applecare, and am now considering signing up for costco lol
i'm so firmly in my old angry man era that i would have loudly told him to get/use some headphones whenever there was signal and cheer the quiet whenever there wasn't 🙈🤣
20 percent rise in ticket sales for NHL games, as reported by SeatGeek, since HEATED RIVALRY aired. Much of it surging from women particularly.
And every single one of those ticket holders found out exactly how much contempt the NHL has for them in a two and half minute clip.
Burned it all down.
i will live forever from sheer spite fuelled willpower instead of letting a machine emulate me.
NEW: A hobbyist has created Nearby Glasses, an app that warns you if someone close by is wearing smart glasses. 404 Media spoke to the creator who said he was inspired by our coverage that uncovers how men are wearing Meta's Ray-Bans to covertly film massage parlor workers.
me: i should start seeing earlier instead of 2/3am
also me: oh hey Paradise is back and they dropped 3 episodes

Happy Zelda 40th anniversary!
holy crap, you're gonna have enough to open a store lol
I missed it in theatres too! Trying to find an uninterrupted stretch to devote to watching instead of diving in chunks. Also, still chuckling at how Mari Yamamoto and Takehiro Hira play mother/son in Monarch lol.
And happy belated!
We've been looking forward to sharing this news for a long time. We're making a graphic novel!

As a Filipino, I can confirm that much outsourced digital labor in the Philippines consists of "remotely faking processes described as automated." Since these workers are contractually forbidden from disclosing this work, people remain continuously surprised by this in the year of our lord 2026.
i'm an elder millennial and had rotation of 3 tapes and a schedule of what to watch and what to record on any given day. and then days when there was more than 2 shows on, it was a juggling act with picture-in-picture to watch the ones not being recorded 😅
had a haircut yesterday, but not from my usual guy (he was off) and it's been bugging me. one side was cut a little too short and even my mom can tell.
i can't really do anything about it (going back to fix it would make my hair even shorter, which i don't want), just wanted to vent about it a bit.
