getting the onion newspaper is worth it alone for the ads

Fox is not technically a news agency and has argued in court for their right to call themselves "news" despite this, so they don't have to adhere to any code of ethics the way journalists do.

a lot of people debating the merits of that dogshit essay meanwhile the girl’s mom is retweeting demands to ban all trans people from teaching at any level. it’s forest for the trees shit

*precious profits (thanks autocorrect 😑)

Just keep that in mind as we continue to watch companies pour money into AI and ingrain it in their products despite the fact that it has not been profitable so far.

Not sure how they expect people to pay for any consumables they sell if they can't work and earn an income once they're replaced with AI, but these money hungry goblins aren't really known for forward thinking. Nor do they care.

Free to give them even more time and attention so that their profit margins can continue to go up.

Plus, if AI and automation become sophisticated enough, companies can lay off entire departments of employees and have fewer people to pay from their previous profits.

Our time, attention, and data are some of the most profitable commodities currently.

AI further harvests and trains on our data as it is used, and claims to "free up our time."

Free up to do what? Not create art, form real relationships, or master a skill.

Today is World AIDS Day, a day that reminds me of the decades-long fight for dignity, science, and compassion. We’ve come so far because activists, researchers, and communities refused to be ignored.

They still want to make a list of all Autistic people, so it's not that far off in next steps

I like the green ones especially

Might just need to buy a few extra copies of each and donate them to my nearest libraries 🤔

I appreciate hearing from people like that, who were fans or part of a culture and are now not.

Bong Joon Ho took a characteristically radical approach when questioned on his thoughts around the rise of Al technology at the jury press conference of the Marrakech Film Festival on Saturday. The Korean director, who is president of the jury, gave two responses, one measured, the other deeply personal. "My official answer is, Al is good because it's the very beginning of the human race finally seriously thinking about what only humans can do. But my personal answer is, I'm going to organize a military squad, and their mission is to destroy AI," he said.

Bong Joon Ho hit me up for the squad you legend deadline.com/2025/11/bong...

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.

newsGP - Australia set for world-first cervical cancer elimination Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.

We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.

I was just listening to a YouTube video while doing my skincare, which made me laugh, so I saw my genuine smile in the mirror... and I thought it was nice 🥲

I was 11 the first time I was catcalled. It's about control and, often, fear.

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad

this is sick

Why am I so against generative AI in games?

Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

Open AI loses copyright case in Germany.

Judge Elke Schwager summarized the case saying that if you want to build something and need components, "then you purchase them and do not use the property of others."
