It’s surreal seeing stories like this in the US news without a single mention of people being arrested at the border. Like, stories in Canada about travel in the US is all about your risk of being detained at the border, burner phones. The US stories are about “rhetoric”? apnews.com/article/inte...

tried to get a new job and I didn't get it. Anything really does help

in a real country this would have your company immediately shut down and everyone involved imprisoned for life

people really need to understand that LLMs do not "think" and have no continuity

spotify reverse engineering a reason why they added ID verification is going to make me lose my fucking mind

forcefully editing copyrighted content with no ability to opt out is grounds for a massive lawsuit if any creators wants to be brave enough to fight this.

"how do I explain lesbians to my kids" and "the internet needs to be censored so my stupid kid can be on it" is cut from the same root in that some parents just fucking hate the idea of needing to interact with their kids in any way and want them to just bang on the ipad and shut the fuck up

of course there are a few notable exceptions but the answer to “what order should i read/watch/play this series in?” is almost always “order of release.” they didn’t release them in that order by accident

I hate how youtube videos used to be called "[character] dialogue compilation" or "[movie] fight scene" and now they're like "WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PAY YOUR WRITERS" and "they thought the mining colony was abandoned" (it's a scene from Aliens)

ada... but what if... she was fucked up

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

I'm so glad Discord embed saved this tweet since the original got deleted

the nascent internet's most exciting thing was the possibility of a single repository of total human knowledge, for me to look up whenever I want. AI is an abomination because it will show you something you've never seen before, and you think you know more about the world, but you only know a lie
