Reorient state policy not around GDP but GDFT (Gross Domestic Free Time) and watch a better world follow

Whose historic win the apparently indispensable intellect that is Stancil attributes fully to his having a cool first name

Post a banger that isn’t in English

an image flashed in my head of a discord exec seeing everyone get together in IRC in protest and rambling to himself like the grinch trying to figure out christmas: "they chat without exclusive unlock quests. they chat without memes. they chat without emojis, video chat, and streams."

Bet search frequency for Matrix got a noticeable bump today

We basically live in the same neighborhood yeah

Would you believe me if I told you I saw our guy yesterday and he was literally wearing a Kant t-shirt lol

But not alone. Find your local ICE watch group and see how you can get involved

When the elected opposition fails to oppose, participatory democracy means doing it ourselves

This will seriously disrupt aid getting into the county. Any country that even wants to pretend to care about Cuba and sovereignty needs to bring jet fuel to Cuba immediately

Shit, he is really going through it. Kind of feel bad for him.

fortunately it looks like html5zombo.com, created shortly after browsers stopped allowing flash, is still alive, it just doesn't autoplay

When it is not poisoning poor communities to churn out insult after insult to human ingenuity and creativity, endlessly making verbal threats to people's livelihoods, and degrading overall quality of life by filling the world with rank shit, it is literally making my friends insane

I have now had two friends in the last year come to me excitedly with transcripts of LLM conversations to ask me what I think, and when I look it is just insane jargon-laden "breakthroughs" about the nature of reality and/or consciousness. I hate this technology so fucking much man.

“Prompt engineers” who believe they are skillfully coaxing the machine into doing the right thing by giving it a persona (e.g. “you are a senior software engineer with 10 years of experience”) are in fact getting random chance. Yet another example that you cannot believe self-reports on these things

Look, for Old House Reasons my home office gets excessively hot in the winter. And then I'm supposed to change clothes just to take the trash out?

GM: Charisma check.

Mamdani: [rolls natural 20]

GM: that’s a d6 how did you

Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊

Kid Rock more like kid fuck

I’d simply parry the RPG

Even in the wildest dreams of singularity guys there is still war apparently

Also none of this shit is “getting more intelligent”. LLMs plateaued at “still constantly makes shit up” but they’re hundreds of billions into this so they gotta keep the hype sky high

Literally all my homies are going to a training on Sunday. The org had to postpone the previous one because they were overwhelmed with how many people wanted to get involved. People are over this shit!
