Just a reminder that Amazon workers are striking tomorrow through Monday, and that none of the “deals” are good enough to justify crossing the picket line.

aside from AI being a garbage theft machine that destroys the planet…how is this disrupting anything?? there are already too many books for the number of people willing to buy and read them. adding 8,000 more isn’t doing anything new

the way the user base talks about this site (the vibes, algorithm, etc.) makes it very clear to me that what you’ve all been yearning for this entire time is literally just post-collapse tumblr

lot of negativity towards AI lately, but consider :

are these tools ethical or environmentally sustainable? No.

*but* do they enable great things that people want? Also no.

*but* are they being made by well meaning people for good reasons? Once again, no.

maybe you're not being negative *enough*

Not to sound like an infomercial but my aunt gave my dad this thing called a hyperchiller, I think, and it is the absolute best for no-planning-ahead iced tea or coffee
