people in the replies to this are getting into arguments so heated that they're blocking each other. some say we need sports to distract people like these, but sports are for intellectuals. maybe we could reboot the west wing for them or something

Yes, and studies show that working more than ~60h/week for more than two months straight results in a decline in both efficiency and overall productivity. These guys have their heads up their asses. I went over a bunch of this stuff in a Reboot talk in 2018 btw youtu.be/nHWvUmlzamo?...

As everyone is rightfully in shock about this despicable treatment... Please also remember that the US has been helping to break down intl law for a year and a half. This is not new. And will continue to destabilize everything.

This is so good. Elon Musk is throwing a bunch of money into the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, and his PAC launched an attack ad... against an person unrelated to the race with the same name as one of the candidates. wisconsinexaminer.com/briefs/musk-...

OpenAI says it has proof that Deepseek used its work without permission to create something meant to undermine and destroy its product. On behalf of all the authors whose novels and stories were taken as training data, oh no that must be so hard for you.

John Fetterman’s a disgrace to the oaf community. He does not represent America’s lumbering buffoons, ham-fisted galoots, or men whose heavy footsteps are soundtracked by a tuba.

The extras is easily one of the reasons why I read the Fullmetal Alchemist manga even though I saw both TV anime adaptations. Hiromu Arakawa has a way with her words and art... and the bonuses in each volume.

What much of this debate is missing is that to ‘get a joke’ one must first accept a premise, with a total disregard for one’s own critical faculties, with the distinct goal of admission to a powerful group at the expense of the other. As such, every joke is nothing less than a primer for fascism.

rather than make Trump look good, this just so deeply underscores how monstrous Biden is. none of this had to happen, this is his legacy, any amount of good his administration did do is completely overshadowed by his indispensable role in a genocide

This deal has been available at least since May, arguably since last November after the first prisoner exchange. Every hostage who has died since, every Palestinian killed or who died of malnutrition or a treatable disease, is a direct result of Biden’s refusal to force the deal.

If the Greenland thing is indicative of how liberals in the US will respond to Trump, then it’s game over. All the grifters who juiced anti-Trumpers for 8 years are now like “Look he is actually raising a real issue about Greenland’s strategic importance”.

after days of grifters and con men at CES we stumbled upon the booth for VLC. they were all dressed as wizards and told us, "we have nothing to sell, we just decided to show up". i told them I'd been using their software to pirate media for 15 years and they said "keep doing that"

You don’t understand scale. Use $50 to buy 10 burrito plants. In 6 months you have 250 burritos. Plant those into 250 tortillas. 6 months you have 6,250 burritos. Plant them. 6 months you have 156k burritos. Plant them. 6 mo you have 3.9MM burritos. Sell them on doordash for $40 each.

They just completely won with calling LLM errors "hallucinations" didn't they? Even the fiercest AI critics say it. Unnecessarily anthropomorphic and helpless way to say "returned false and broken results," as if the bot had an imagination or the ability to tell truth from lies.

Australians should probably be a little less smug about our healthcare as bulk billing doctors become rarer and rarer and gaps become wider. Where do you reckon this is going, exactly?

I'm fascinated by the Singal discourse because it feels like a real inflection point for Bluesky. There's what the platform owners want to use it for (a springboard to establish a decentralized social media protocol), and what its users hope it will be (Twitter but aligned for good).

Remarkable how many takes upon takes we’ve had following this horrible synagogue attack, when so little remains known. The Age has spent the weekend blaming pro-Palestine protestors, Dutton is now attacking Jewish MPs. None of this is really feels like it’s stopping antisemitism does it.

When Animorphs ended, fans were vocal about how they didn't like the depressing ending. K.A. Applegate responded with amongst the most brutal letters I've read. It takes a generational talent to tell your fans "If you're mad at me because that's what you have to take away from Animorphs, too bad."
