major newspapers ran feverish graphics that imagined bin laden's hideout as an outright bond villain lair, when in reality it was a few caves with barely any ventilation. see also, iraq's bioweapon trucks

This is a tribute to Peter Benchley, author of 'Jaws', who dedicated his life to reversing the unexpected negative impact his book had on the image of sharks. We kill millions of sharks annually and demonize them in our media, who is the real monster? 💀 #Jaws #sharks #shark

Crowdfunding charities through itch.io bundles is a flawed and often frustrating process, but several non-profits and direct action groups told us the aid gathered from bundles remains an invaluable resource.

This happens all the time. Millionaires and billionaires claim they’ll leave if taxed a cent above current rates, and it is — if you can manage to force the tax through anyway — almost always a bluff. They stay put and get over it

Farage and the far right in general come from a grievance culture. If you do what they want, even maximally – Brexit – they’ll move the goalposts and keep moaning. If you engage seriously with their concerns, they’ll find new ones. You will never satisfy them, because they don’t want to be satisfied

Every so often I like to remind people of Abe Rosenthal, the guy who ran the NYT during the aids crisis and kept coverage of it out of the paper. This is his gravestone.

My friend Flo's dad was involved in the fanzine culture of D&D in the 70s, and made some contributions to early gaming magazines. She recently shared some of his handwritten notes about the spell systems he and his friends used. I think these are FASCINATING

Hi, person who grew up in the woods/mountains and backcountry camper here. Don't use AI generated paths. This is genuinely such an easy way to get killed or go missing. Stick to the planned trail, always go prepared, go with a physical map and compass, someone should know where you're going.

As a general rule, in every election everywhere, we really might want to consider not supporting the candidates that billionaires like best.

If a colleague had the reliability rate of an LLM, they would be fired. If ordinary* software did, it would be uninstalled. LLMs require the chat format, because chat makes us party to the conversation. We insert the meaning ourselves - and hold it to a different standard. It's the mirror effect.

Keep an eye out! As AI winds down while VC money runs out, they're going to continue following the same failed playbook Web3 used. They'll redirect the focus from big money (companies, entrepreneurs) to marginalized communities. Prepare to see AI re-spun as a tool to empower women/POC/LGBT.

One more reason I hate AI is that scrapers are slowing down websites to the point where some don't even load. These are small, expert-created websites that don't have a budget to handle all this. It's like a parasitic infection.

I'm pretty understanding about ppl and their hyperfixations, but LRP yeah I gotta admit the FNaF thing has been a bit annoying. Cawthon directly contributed to what's happening in the US currently and there was no widespread pushback about it or the most recent game. He still makes $$ off those.

I suspect that fact that the vast majority of LLM users don’t seem to have received this (really very simple!) message is because the AI companies have a vested interest in us not understanding it. “ChatGPT is smart, it just makes mistakes sometimes” is much more marketable than the truth.
