One of my least favorite things around AI in video games is when these LLM idiots try to say that "AI has been in video games for decades," as if the routines that tell ghosts to chase Pac-Man are exactly the same as the chat bot claiming there are nine Rs in strawberry.

Who is she?

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

The worst part about The Office is that Andy Bernard never got his teeth kicked in.

A compelling argument

He finally said it.

“Technocratic government”

It’s where self proclaimed experts make all the decisions, not citizens or their elected officials.

It’s right out of the Dark Enlightenment, the new Bible for tech oligarchs.

It’s not just their plan for Gaza.

It’s their plan for America as well.

This is America. To all the people who thought Trump and Ratpublican conservative values were wonderful - well here you go.

Trump: “I’m not talking about money for Greenland, yet — I might talk about that, but right now, we are going to do something in Greenland whether they like it or not”

“Whether they like it or not” — those old Epstein habits die hard

Honestly easiest way to do it is to be in a bad mood and make a comment that may or may not appear to be some kind of possible call to violence on someone in a position of authority of some kind, then it snowballs through all of your Meta accounts and boom, you’re free lol

look: if someone took down X we would cut down on sephiroth posting by like 70%

Spyro flying high over a green grass plateau surrounded by so many little spiky mountains with snow caps that it looks like a gathering of a large extended family of mountains all gathered around to look at the little flying dragon.

Gnasty Gnorc, a silly billy green orc wearing spiky orange armor and helmet, no pants and a big hammer is currently being insulted on live television for his charming looks which propels him to become the main antagonist and turns all the dragons (except one) into crystalline statues, possibly to sell them at the next local crafts fair.

Spyro prancing along on a beautiful green meadow with ancient castle walls and bridge adorning the landscape, suspiciously looking at another pantless gnorc with big beautiful eyes and a floppy head like a citizen of Canada from South Park, holding a big brown bag over his shoulder and holding a pretty pink crystal in his hand. They lock eyes for a moment, exchange their "what's up buddy, pal and guy" and each go on their merry way.

Spyro and his trusty and annoying pal Sparx the Dragonfly arrive at some wooden docks overlooking the Dragon Realms bay with a beautiful ocean blue. They're talking to a little pilot fellow wearing googles and a red face mask, aimlessly looking around, trying to find his balloon that's hovering right above his head. Spyro and Sparx are currently contemplating whether this guy was the right pilot of choice.

I can't create new cartoons at the moment because I'm blissfully away in Spain, largely ignoring the news.

But, if you need one - just replace a country in these with Venezuela, Cuba or Mexico and you'll get the idea

Getting permabanned from Meta stuff did a world of wonders for me. Now I just gotta get Reddit out of my life.

We’ve gone from bootlegging whiskey during prohibition to having to bootleg truth during fascism…

Ailing wannabe dictator yelling at his people and insisting that they're getting richer and safer when all the evidence demonstrates the opposite.

This is Gaddafi-levels of lunacy.

The times might be grim, but this is also the timeline where I can play a PS1 game on a Nintendo console using a Sega-style floating Dpad controller.

Gotta focus on the dope stuff.

Three Shirts McGee’s entire MAGA schtick was about draining the swamp, exposing the deep state cabal blah blah…

Here he is palling around with Jeffrey Epstein.

They are the monsters they were warning us about.

Idk what the devs had in mind but I dont understand the motives of the main villain.

Well, I made a new kitbash!! Needs more painting, but it’s table ready!! #kitbash

We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Don’t give up the ship.

RIP Fabian Aramais Seacaster, you will be missed 💔

So Trump says he has to “bring in” foreign talent because American workers don’t have it. I also notice he says “No YOU don’t have it, instead of WE, Americas President is a literal foreign agent

Excellent, the replies also provide zero context for this post. 10/10 content

The rampant lack of optimization in Windows apps is insane now. You might as well have 3 apps and hope they don't gang up on your RAM at any moment, even if they haven't been in use for years.

Can somebody please work on even a slightly better alternative? Mac and Linux ain't it, not now anyway.

Many of the propagandists of Autocracy, Inc., have learned from the mistakes of the twentieth century. They don’t offer their fellow citizens a vision of utopia, and they don’t inspire them to build a better world. Instead, they teach people to be cynical and passive, because there is no better world to build. Their goal is to persuade people to mind their own business, stay out of politics, and never hope for a democratic alternative: Our state may be corrupt, but everyone else is corrupt too. You may not like our leader, but the others are worse. You may not like our society, but at least we are strong and the democratic world is weak, degenerate, divided, dying.

This is from Autocracy, Inc, about how modern autocratic propaganda works.

I consider this every time I decide what to share and how to frame it.
