Always surprised at what prompts @firebase.com Studio generates to do what I ask it for. I asked it to help generate an app that would take in text and return an audio of the text in the voice of a reporter from NY in the 1930s. What it did was try to use a text based LLM to solve this by...

This seems like a big deal: The NYPD shared a Palestinian Columbia protester's sealed arrest information with ICE, which promptly detained her and whisked her to a Texas jail. The NYPD claims, without offering evidence, that this doesn't violate NYC sanctuary city laws: apnews.com/article/nypd...

Latest: The IDF investigated itself, but questions remain about how Israeli soldiers closed around on and fired for over six minutes at rescue workers who were unarmed, in uniform and praying, killing all of them. Our video investigation reconstructs what happened. www.nytimes.com/video/world/...

human trafficking via illegal deportations 🇺🇸 and illegal imprisonment 🇸🇻 by governments. i wouldn’t be surprised if this was the plan from the beginning. ( it could be a way for the USA to launder prisoner requests for CIA agents/ppl hired to destabilize/overthrow the Venezuelan gov. )

Baffling how the same brain-dead morons that were complaining about gov. officials simply ASKING Twitter to remove posts are now in full support of X for collaborating with the gov. to threaten and deport citizens and non-citizens alike for their posts against the murder of children! #FreePalestine

If universities value free expression, they should stand with their students in protesting the genocide in Gaza. The Trump admin’s threat to defund them over protests is a blatant violation of First Amendment rights. They must lead by example. They must stand up and defend speech and assembly, 📣✊

if the new tariffs weren't about pulling money from the worker class to save the wealthy, this could've been easily solved by: 1. incentivizing onshore manufacturing investments into both building and employees with tax rebates. (instead of charging everyone else!) 2. [continued in thread...]

Does anybody know why/how the price for similar video cards, from two different manufacturers, can wildly be different? Even for non-LC ones, what happened to $1999? No price control from NVidia? @gamersnexus.bsky.social @videocardz.com @paulshardware.bsky.social @pcgamer.com @tomshardware.fr

Severance | season 2: - boring 🥱 - stretched out needlessly - artistic expression (film aesthetics) valued more than anything such as: plot, character development, anything resembling progress or creativity. - (spoiler) the whole season can be summed up in a 3-word event: Jemma got out

the united nations should take a look at sanctions against El Salvador for kidnapping people; imprisoning people who have not committed any crimes in El Salvador (and even in the US as their matters are civil not criminal)

I feel for Mahmoud Khalil. Sadly, pro-Palestinian/anti-Zionist protests have always been ground zero for the gov and its handlers ("donors") to test large, targeted campaigns aiming at shutting down public opposition. Remember his name the next time some moron yells: 'Why do you cover your face?'

The Washington Post is really a rag now. A New York Post level rag. A major major amazon boycott needs to happen and needs to happen soon.

The United States government just disappeared a lawful US resident because it didn't like his speech. You should care about this because it shouldn't happen to anyone, but you should also care because it could happen to you. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/09/n...

imagine being so broken brained that you can simultaneously deny climate science and be anti-regulations that help slow global warming and reduce greenhouse gases AND thinking that we need to travel to and colonize Mars. 🤯 💩 🧠

Predictions re: AMD GPUs: Releasing both around the same price restrict scalpers. If they try to scalp the 9070 XT, considering the close performance vs. 9070, they can't ask for much. AND the scalpers can't buy the 9070 because they likely think that the price of the 9070 will come down very soon.

I am worried that all these @msnbc.com and news company layoffs and shifts are all being put in place for a planned ethnic cleansing of the WEST BANK and Gaza. They can't deal with any PR fallout, like the genocide in Gaza.

guys remember: these NEWS CORPS are CORPORATIONS. No matter what they claim, capitalists can/do invest and control. Hosts are fired for being anti-genocide, but a literal NAZI can buy enough % of the company, they can do whatever they want. [ for examples: look at Twitter and the U.S. Gov. ]
