Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet. ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

Protests work. Always have, always will.

As a wife guy (complimentary) myself I agree!

thought this was really beautiful

“As leis são mais lentas que a tecnologia” po na moral vai fazer 3 anos que a gnt tá pedido regulamentação dessa merda.

Every article about the inevitability of AGI

They were one of the first platforms to make explicit rules on AI use and tools to flag them. Still one of the few sites to do it, because Newgrounds is a website for artists.

These are con-artists. And I feel like I'm going crazy because so few people recognize them when it used to be a very common skill most people had!

i can see how someone might think we are close to artificial intelligence that matches human intellect if they themself are perhaps not so intelligent

i know it's just advertisement but it still pisses me off when tech CEOs claim AGI will solve humanity's problems with its vast intelligence. for a lot of problems we already know the solutions, what prevents them being solved is not a lack of intelligence, but that the solutions are unprofitable

Hell yeah

The central delusion of pundits who desperately try to guilt people into coming back to Twitter: they genuinely seem to think we all secretly MISS Twitter and are merely hanging out over here out of a drab, self-flagellating sense of moral superiority no, we're here because Twitter sucks shit now

I think Greta Thunberg is the best example of how there is no way of protesting that will satisfy the scolds. It'll either be called too aggressive or a self-serving publicity stunt.

Yep. I've got more followers on Bluesky than I had on all other social media sites combined three years ago. I've made more money here via my online store than I ever did on Twitter. This site's vastly better for mobilizing folks for political action than Twitter was at the end.

from the other site, an excerpt from the book “Let This Radicalize You”

Please don't listen to any billionaire for any goddamn reason VVVV

“The Swedish government must protect their citizen! Greta Thunberg has been kidnapped by the Israeli military.” Use their website contact form, tag and email the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs NOW: Web: www.government.se/contacts/

Voluntários no Madleen foram sequestrados pelo exército israelense! Thiago Avila é um dos voluntários. Pressionem o Itamaraty para que ele e os demais estejam a salvo! 📩: [email protected] X: ItamaratyGovBr IG: @itamaratygovbr Post original do telegram @freedomflotilla.bsky.social

Parece que o jornalismo morreu no país, já que não tem ninguém cobrindo o sequestro de um brasileiro por Israel

Seen this whole idea of Bluesky bombing coming from the failures of old Twitter bluechecks to adapt from a system that forced people to see their tired tweets. They have coasted on a formula that rewarded mediocre thoughts in a time where social media wasn’t the weapon it is now.

Threads really is just X's equally malignant little brother.

Maybe the internet stopped being good the day we rejected custom mouse cursors.

Regular liberal people must come to understand that there is no way you can appease Nazis and especially that there is no way that you can shrink yourself so they won't hurt you. Their main goal is to hurt you.

"My name is Greta Thunberg and I am from Sweden. If you see this video, we have been intercepted and kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces, or forces that support Israel."

the Brazilian replies to this post will take you on a fucking journey

No, bro. You know how it is. They will put you on a pedestal even tho you are just some dude. And at one point they will realize you are just some dude, and despite you saying you've been just some dude the entire time they'll get super angry that you're just some dude. I don't need that grief.

It’s a Nazi bar.

Muttering ‘ ᶠᵘᶜᵏⁱⁿᵍ ᶜʰʳⁱˢᵗ ‘ to yourself but you keep drawing anyway is actually so important to the artistic process

"The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear."

When someone was my mutual back on twitter but not here i want to be like "HELLO?? ITS ME. JESSI. YOUR FAVORITE PERSON. REMEMBER MY HIGH QUALITY POSTS."

when people are saying certain authoritarian responses aren't american, when america has done these exact methods to black folk, native americans, japanese folk, latinx, etc...many many times

Transmisogyny is fundamentally tied to antiblackness and the perpetuation/reinforcement of a narrow and exclusively white ideal of womanhood.

borders and states aren’t real, anybody who wants to stroll into the U.S. should be able to do so whenever they want, I don’t fuckin care

Realmente já coringuei sobre isso aqui também . Partido de esquerda trocando beijo com IA que receba voto de IA então. Benção e boa sorte.

genuinely dislike when a game or movie involves killing dinos. I love dinos, give me dino riding, dino raising, let me be a dino, but don't make me kill them. still haven't finished games like turok and dino crisis for this reason. I kind of want to but it's an unappealing aspect to me

Haven't seen a single post defending ICE. This is the exact bubble I want in social media.

“Defund the police” was in fact a great slogan.

The videos coming out of the Gestapo terror raid in Los Angeles today are absolutely horrifying and really should wake you up to the new reality of American fascism. It’s here it’s coming for us all and unless we fight for one another we will not survive.

If you haven't seen it, this is the game they're making at my new job. When Ryan approached me about working with them on concept art, this is one of the things he showed to convince me haha I'm glad everyone gets to see it now youtu.be/sJV_GpNEFwA?...

i love how nearly everything is a scam now

hate how much smartphones are such a black hole for adhd folks on one hand, I like to stay informed on dumb things. it’s fun. on the other, I’d like to not easily neglect everything else because my brain wants to keep pulling the dopamine lever

another hidden/externalized cost and form of theft in AI is the bots for Meta etc are blowing up site hosting charges of pages they're looting for information to take credit for. profits go to meta and others, made possible by costs spread to all the operators of sites they're crawling to steal from

I've been in a handful of meetings with people who obsess over social metrics for a living and truthfully answered questions about my posting strategy with "I never think about any of that."

God I fucking wish we had spoiler flags in addition to adult/gore flags @pfrazee.com help lmao

This rules for a lot of reasons, but especially because it dispels the myths that A.) old games were never political and B.) games like this are just stories, they aren't "about" anything. Should serve as a reminder to anyone writing about games why we should be close reading 'em.
