To Slay the Great Regurgitator

Jfc. Money ruining yet another thing.

Happy Birthday to Rick Astley. He truly never gave us up.

TL;DR: AI scheming, dangerous backdoors, bullshit use of resources.

Keep honking, I'm reloading my double-barreled brass lizard hand-blunderbuss

I rotoscope all the animations for my adventure games, which means mostly doing all my own stunts.

Would have never thought this would happen… Carpenter Brut with AI slop video? Feels like such a fucking betrayal.

Actually looking to resell my tickets -but since so many of us are, who would even buy them.

My favorite game protagonists who stuck in a never ending loop.

The cone of mysteries does not reveal its secrets so easily…

My 3yo niece has her priorities straight. On a video call, the first two agenda points are :
- where are the cats
- show me your xmas tree

“Take away our ability to speak, and we can still think, reason, form beliefs, fall in love, and move about the world; our range of what we can experience and think about remains vast.

“But take away language from a large language model, and you are left with literally nothing at all.”

And you will have to wait for more tomorrow

"Il faut l’écrire en toutes lettres pour en réaliser la folie [...] : après trois défaites électorales, dont la dernière a mis ses soutiens en minorité à l’Assemblée nationale, et trois démissions gouvernementales, Macron a reconduit à Matignon l’homme qui venait d’en claquer la porte."

Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job. AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society and our descendants will be digging it out for generations:

This whole section really.

And what comes next? I get arrested because I cosplay a character with pointy ears?

FFS, stop the bullshit excuses that it's "for protecting the children", banks probably do more harm in a second than "unprotected internet" did in 30 years.

Banks: We will not let you have smut about furries or fairies or whatever you sick sick sick sickos

Also banks: Oh hello Mr. International Pedophile how can we move your money today?

Ouiiiiiiii!!! (qui est d'ailleurs dans le prochain film street fighter - un bon choix pour Bison en vrai :') )

Pour vous donner une idée de ce que possède la connasse condescendante qui glousse quand cette femme courageuse lui parle de sa situation: 700 millions d'euros.
Vous voyez le Zevent ? Elle a 43 fois la somme qui a été récoltée. Mais pour elle toute seule. Et elle dit qu'il faut faire des efforts.

Ohlala ui je viens de voir. Mads et Sigourney, Bryan Fuller? Vendu, double, triple vendu.

Everything you need to know about the western press: Reuters called its own camera a “Hamas camera” because Israel called it a “Hamas camera” after they bombed the Reuters camera.

Whether you are into kinky games/material or not, banks should NOT police how you spend your money or what shops sell, and parents should control their kids’ computer access.

And if that’s how they start, next they’ll come for anything with a bit of blood.

J’ai lavé le tapis de bain, est-ce que ça compte? (Also, pétition pour ajouter le rideau de douche à la liste)

Troubleshooting someone else’s code, and seeing they are naming variables in the plural form, so you are now looking for a specific “variants_ids”.

Philosophical dinner topic of the day :
What is a hole? Does a tube have two holes, or one hole? If you make a hole in a tube, does it go from one hole to three? Is everything a hole, at the right scale?

Isn’t life just the never-ending transition from one hole to another?

MY TIME HAS COME!!! Je suis Abba Wrong, et voici mon histoire 🥸

Moi, c’est le Baron dans le Royaume des Chats :> Toujours eu un faible pour les costumes trois pièces…

My dad, who has always been very awkward towards my past partners, is now my relationship’s biggest stan, and keeps sending adorable smiley faces our way. This is a very unexpected change in character, but I’m here for it.

65, and entering his cute era.
