mRNA tech is some of the coolest, most powerful, most promising scifi shit humans are currently doing. They are being investigated to help with cancers, autoimmune diseases, M.S., stroke recovery, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, and high cholesterol.

the first question I always ask when this happens - what am I being sold? grok 4 seems like a real deep thinker .... ok, what is the billionaire trying to sell me with that. we'll probably have an answer in six months in the form of some new bullshit Fortnite or UnrealEd upcharged feature.

I don't think people really realise the significance of AEW having a wrestler cutting a whole promo in Spanish, and a wrestler wearing an Abolish ICE shirt loud and proud. With the current political climate, AEW is not perfect. But people there will not tolerate hate. End. Of

Chatbots โ€” LLMs โ€” do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When theyโ€™re โ€œrightโ€ itโ€™s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. Thatโ€™s all.

this is like the thing where natives drove buffalo off cliffs through herd mentality tricks, except it's grifting billionaires and we're the buffalo

Don't just say it's unconstitutional, remind people that the constitution is full of very good ideas designed to prevent authoritarianism, and most people who want to ignore it want that specifically because they are authoritarian.

if the democratic party wasnโ€™t a gerontocracy this would have failed. gerry connelly staying in office til he died allowed this to pass. this is echoes of RBG not retiring. when will democrats fucking learn

I have a brother thatโ€™s mentally disabled (doesnโ€™t have bsky or know about mine, but still debated posting this). I know itโ€™s become hip for whatever reason but donโ€™t use the R-word. If youโ€™ve never seen someone go real quiet after overhearing it used as an insult in public you wouldnโ€™t know. Stop.

The whole 'Grok is a boer now' thing is very funny, but it also really exposes how every 'AI tool' isn't just passively biased from training data, but actively designed to shape your worldview according to the interests of the billionaires who made them.

Itโ€™s genuinely embarrassing that people keep falling for these โ€œAI explains the hidden secrets of its programmingโ€ posts. Grok is not sentient, it cannot explain what itโ€™s doing and why.

admit when you don't know something instead of guessing. not only does this set a good example, but also anyone who reacts poorly to this is throwing up a huge red flag which can be helpful for knowing who to avoid

personally would like to see every store show what part of the price increase is due to tariffs bc if these tariffs ever come down, i need to see that price go right back down

The "Enshittification" has arrived

News
I asked ChatGPT about the impact of the current tarrifs on inventories over the next few months. It returned a long list of links to toiletries I might want to buy.
l asked it why it did that. It replied:
"As of April 28, 2025, OpenAl introduced new shopping features to ChatGPT, enhancing its capabilities to provide product recommendations complete with images, reviews, and direct purchase links. These features are available to all users, including those on Free, Plus, and Pro tiers, and even to users not logged in. The recommendations are generated organically, without paid advertisements or commission-based incentives, relying instead on structured metadata from third-party sources such as pricing, product descriptions, and reviews.
This update aims to offer a more personalized and streamlined shopping experience directly within the ChatGPT interface, allowing users to explore products across various categories like fashion, beauty, electronics, and home goods. If you have any specific preferences or need tailored recommendations, feel free to let me know!"

@marathonthegame.bungie.net are there plans to add more controller customization? like turning down deadzone, linear acceleration, button layouts, the usual stuff you see for shooters? right now the settings available are making it hard to keep up with cross play (harder than in other shooters).

you know what would drop the number of assaults of ICE agents to zero? abolishing ICE.

@gavinverhey.bsky.social with the change to Delina, Wild Mage to say "exile this token", if you copy Deadpool with her and have that copy swap text with a non-token, does that non-token exile at end of combat, or does it fizzle because it's not a token?
