SNES consoles seem to be getting faster as they age. Help us collect data. Do you have an SNES and a flash cart? Run the smpspeed ROM test from lidnariq on your console. Post your results on this TASBot Nextcloud form: nextcloud.tas.bot/index.php/ap...

Covid gave tech workers more power than they’d ever had before and they used some of it to push for better policies on racism and sexism and the bosses got so angry they decided to burn the world to the ground rather than listen to what they had to say

This is a shocking thing from AI discourse online. People say to me "AI is the only thing helping me learn physics, I can't follow the textbooks. I know it's wrong a lot though." Babe, you have not learned physics. You used a garbage tool and now you think you know something. Which is worse!!

No, he doesn't. Randy E. Barnett and Ilan Wurman should be disbarred and removed from their positions for even saying this. There should be no mercy for people articulating this made up bullshit in the legal profession. They are enablers of fascism no different than the lawyers of the Nazi regime.

Ok hear me out

The cruelty is the point.

I think if I was voting for Mayor in New York City I’d try something different and not vote for the single most deranged person I can find that also does crimes

her: I'm coming over, you better not be reticulating splines me:

I am so heartbroken. I got to know Elisa two years ago when she came to me with hundreds of emails of anti-trans legislators scheming around restricting trans rights. I helped get her story told by the New York Times and Washington Post. She deserved so much better. RIP.

It is always shocking to me that anyone gives a shit what the pope thinks. Going to call up Jim Bob Duggar next and ask him for morality opinions? I know this reads like edgy atheist but they literally raped children, protected the rapists, funded the rapists move so they could do more raping.

Riker and Geordi are a good lesson on the idea of sex positivity and the importance of consent. Back when TNG was on I imagine Riker was seen as the problematic one because he slept around and nowadays it’s tough to watch Geordi create a hologram girlfriend without it being straight incel shit

Wake up babe: new AI benchmark question just dropped: How can a person without arms wash their hands?

Nvidia stock plummets on report that the original Deus Ex still looks better on 3dfx hardware

[leaning on my House M.D., Lost, and X-Files boxed sets] Yeah, you could say I'm into some obscure, alternative stuff

Man some days you just want to build a cabin and just live off the land. And also the cabin has WiFi and a PS5.

Reminder that Mitt Romney explicitly said the rationale behind the tiktok ban was pro Palestinian content. The renewed push last year was explicitly to help Israel conduct a genocide without scrutiny on social media. Imperial boomerang in action. www.axios.com/local/salt-l...

nosferatu was fine, but would it kill Hollywood to make a movie about a non-sexy vampire?

Give back the 6 counties and we're good

I want to dispel a very commonly-held assumption: none of these companies had a plan with generative AI. They threw cash at it because it looked like it might be profitable, and have thrown more cash as it became less profitable because none of them have any other ideas, or plan of any kind.

Published a new blog post: Galloping Search This cool algorithm is used to search sorted items when the upper bound is unknown. It's like binary search but without the 'high' value. In this short post, I will share my notes and other alternatives I discovered. avi.im/blag/2024/ga...
