As an instructor, I'd rather see your fever dream, No Doze-fueled 4AM essays written at an IHOP rather than anything generated by an LLM.

Hope this helps

There's something about Airbnb using an (admittedly well-made) bit of art depicting, of all things, the "Shibuya Yokocho" in Miyashita Park as their representational image of Tokyo. A corporate bit of faux-Showa nostalgia that apes real yokochos, with among the more mediocre kitchens in the region.

The dream

Hell is empty, and all the devils are here

My dad drove us in a loaner Tesla this morning where Grok AI:
Turned itself on
Would not turn off
Instructed how to tell it to stop (did not stop)
Instructed how to tell it to play music (did not music)

After setting the volume to 0 and sitting in silence, an advertisement forced the volume back on

This goes beyond annoying and into dystopian 🙃

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Important farm labor update: Trump DOL is now planning to massively expand the H2A program.

Their logic? "Gee, all the farm workers are gone now. It's causing a food crisis. We just HAVE to run a crash-expansion of our slavery-prone H2A program."

Watching the dominos arrange for subtle, seemingly innocuous shifts in history and perception. Eyes looking in different directions, a slightly different carpet color, etc. What troubles me is when it becomes indiscernible and later used for reference in other media. AI Mandela Effect inbound.

It was such a good flick. True to form from the original and campy in all the right ways.

And the fact that proceeds are being used to eliminate medical debt is true to the ethos of Toxy.

YouTube video by gavvhell Anime Expo 1992 costume contest masquerade

I've uploaded a new anime convention videos, this time the Anime Expo 1992 costume contest. This version was a produced video by the con and aired on their in-room cctv channels where I recorded it. That was a very neat feature of the old Red Lion Inn.. #otakuarchive youtu.be/QRpKKPwjZ04?...

Is it time for a deep dive on vinylon?

this is literally stuff King Charles did, like not only did the American colonists have a revolution to not have this happen, but they did so in the wake of the English revolution, which was about not having stuff like this happen

LRP I am 11/10 skeptical that a founding engineer of one of the most profitable tech companies truly, in their bones, values the plight of the poor and exploited, but at this point, I'll take someone who even cosplays these values over Pelosi.

No AIPAC money. No corporate or lobbyist money. 

I'm running for Congress to represent the people of San Francisco, not big donors.

🐹 Before viral videos on TikTok or YouTube, there was Hampsterdance.

Full of dancing hamster GIFs & a sped-up tune, it became one of the internet’s first viral hits.

You can still dance to it on the #WaybackMachine ➡️ web.archive.org/web/19991222...

Illustration: a portrait of Rieko Kodama with some of the games she has worked on. The dominant colors are yellow, purple and red. Counterclockwise from top left: Rieko Kodama, Alis and Lutz from Phantasy Star, Sonic in a maze, Alex Kidd and his motorbike next to Flicky on a waterfront pier, Joe Musashi and his dog near the Statue of Liberty facing a skyline, the three playable characters from Golden Axe seen from behind on the edge of a cliff, and one of the flying ships from Skies of Arcadia.

I wrote a long article about Rieko Kodama, her career at Sega, the evolution of her company, the games she worked on (including some canceled games and/or games for which she is not credited), the status of women and working conditions in the video game industry, etc.

Sam Altman’s AI empire will devour as much power as New York City and San Diego combined. Experts say it’s ‘scary’ | Fortune Andrew Chien told Fortune he’s been a computer scientist for 40 years but we’re close to “some seminal moments for how we think about AI and its impact on society.”

delete chatgpt and stop using generative AI 🖤🤍

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

kirby is a really interesting franchise because it's been made by the same studio and largely the same team of people for over 30 years so you can see these very clear evolutions of ideas and gameplay, it's like a window into a universe where everybody didn't burn down their institutional know-how
