Trump forgot that he was President on Jan. 6th. 2021.

Woah

That’s not good

Holy heck, this is what we need. This is what we need people to be doing.

Confident, unabashed, positive

Lovely to see

I guess it’s up to Times journalists to give him another easy interview where he gets to lie about himself and his beliefs without any challenge.

The tabs kept being messed with though. The following tab stopped showing me chronological tweets, instead choosing which of my follows I would get to see. I was missing more and more accounts.

The people using AI detectors need to be disciplined for sheer incompetence.

“Does this thing actually work” should be the first question you ask, not something to ask AFTER you’ve made someone’s life a misery.

As you can imagine, it was great for earthquake updates. You felt a judder and went on Twitter to share info about how strong it was where and what local authorities were saying about tsunami risks.

Fukuyama debunks the AI abundance myth: we can't feed or clothe all not due to a lack of smarts, but priorities and resources.

The world simply can't sustain the abundant lifestyle AI proponents promise, lacking even the electricity to run the very AI they favor.

One thing worth adding to this excellent piece is what we’ve all seen to people who stayed on.

There are multiple cases of people who have been radicalised towards the far right and positions they used to sincerely repudiate because of their continued Xitter use.

Are deepfakes of dead people rewriting the past? While OpenAI's Sora has some guardrails around the likenesses of living people, protections around the likenesses of those who have died appear to be an afterthought.

Being such a responsible company, I’m sure they’ve gamed out the potential societal harms and have a plan for mitigating them. 💀

Well

Now now 😝

I remember trying to explain to (non insane) right wing accounts what it was like. They just didn’t get the same amount of far right attention at all.

So:

- blue cheese and jalapeño with a glass of wine is VERY good.

- green pepper didn’t do it on the texture front. Will try it with tako (octopus) next time. (Basil/tako works for sushi, so pesto should work here.)

Also, it became increasingly apparent that many of the accounts trying to argue with me weren’t even genuine.

It wasn’t even “someone on the Internet is wrong”.

This is an exact encapsulation of why I moved to Bluesky.

No amount of handwringing in the Atlantic about how I owe some eternal Promethean suffering to the discourse is going to make me stay on a site I hate, that stopped doing anything for me professionally years ago.

She’s not just railing on social media. She’s funding the campaigns that are putting the UK in a race with the US to persecute trans people and essentially criminalise them.

It’s fair to consider the best way to talk to fans lining her pockets, but it’s not just stupidity. It’s open cruelty.

Ooh

I don’t usually have Vegemite in the house but I might get some.

Second round:

- some chopped green pepper with the pesto
- blue cheese + jalapeño

In addition to that, another of the final straws was realising that I wasn’t even getting a lot of breaking news any more. (I mean, I don’t get it on here, but it was one thing Twitter had been brilliant for.)

So:

Pesto turns to very thin liquid (should have foreseen that really), so you’ll need to be careful to get it properly round.

One kid liked it a lot, I think it needs something like a chunk of green pepper for texture.

Blue cheese - seriously would consider this a good +red wine snack.

So tonight’s culinary adventure:

Takoyaki with (along with the usual fillings)
- blue cheese
- pesto

I will report back.

Any j-sky folks got any unorthodox fav fillings?

THIS

It’s also why I really find it difficult to give two shits about superhero CGI stunt work and can’t fathom why others do.

Thanks for the detailed response! Much appreciated.

So it’s a matter of legal classification of the organisation, not specific activity?

Decision tree entitled “Should I pay attention to Richard Dawkins?” Question: Richard Dawkins said something. Should I pay attention to it? Response: What was Richard Dawkins talking about? Option 1: Evolutionary Biology - YES Option 2: Not Evolutionary Biology - NO

I might as well play my other card here: the “Richard Dawkins has said something” Decision Tree

The cake knife shrinks and there’s a split in the dress that appears when she moves away from the glass top table.

'Making people pay for retail goods would kill the shoplifting industry.'

Image is a screenshot of a headline from the UK newspaper the Independent. Above a photograph of Richard Dawkins with a black background wearing a grey suit and a tie is the following headline and subheading. INDEPENDENT British scientists don't like Richard Dawkins, finds study that didn't even ask questions about Richard Dawkins The investigation into science's public image didn't even ask about the atheist professor, but it got an answer anyway Andrew Griffin • Monday 31 October 2016 16:53 GMT

Here’s a cleanser. Second time I’ve posted it today.
