Discord has apparently added generative AI "apps" users can use to modify any image posted in any discord server. On by default, no way to disable them, no moderation tools. Fuck discord, support artists (discord sure doesn't).

With the demise of Joann's, I'm going to share a few online resources I've found. It's by no means exhaustive, but hopefully it helps folks find what they need. 🧵

Heads up for crafters: Great American LLC has won the bid for Joann. They’re a liquidator, so ALL Joann stores will be closed by end of May. Stock up on everything NOW and if you have an independent fabric store near you, start using it 😢

Just an FYI, per tesla this isn't correct, there are two additional cameras in the pillars between front and rear seats as seen below. What I found more interesting is that sentry mode apparently only records if there is a USB stick installed. Talk about cheaping out. www.tesla.com/ownersmanual...

Apparently we can submit public comments on US Passport form changes related to Trans people. It’s a small thing we can do, but these public comments have changed policy before. Read the top comments on how to go about it www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

if you are a speedrunner who streams on Twitch, Twitch has stupidly decided it's going to wipe out 10+ years of history and you probably want to go and back up any particularly important highlights you might have saved before they get deleted in April actually so unbelievable

finally got around to installing octoprint on my pi zero 2w (and learned how to actually fix the wifi-not-working-on-second-boot-after problem that made me stop using the damned pi to begin with) so now i have my 3d printer easily manageable and don't need to keep pulling the sd card

TIL that if you have a sufficiently old Kindle (like first few gens), you can visit www.amazon.com/hz/mycd/digi..., then select the old Kindle as the target device under “More Actions -> Download and Transfer vs. USB”, and the resulting file is DRM-free and usable in apps like Calibre, etc.

We're stoked to introduce the 'No Gen AI' seal for indie games! Indie devs can use it on their game's store page to assure potential players that their game was made without the use of Generative AI. You can grab it from the Polygon Treehouse website:- www.polygon-treehouse.com/no-gen-ai-seal

FYI, Amazon will no longer enable the downloading of ebooks to exterior devices starting February 26th. You need a pre 2024 Kindle to download them via USB. If you want the aw3 files convertable with Calibre(free), you have until Feb 26 to do this via the Content library option on your account.

Sorry, but we now have a once-per-six-months PrEP injection with a 96% efficacy in reducing HIV infections, and the response is to limit PrEP to only pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers? What?! It's going to be much more expensive to provide lifelong treatment than work on prevention.
