ten thousand lifetimes have passed since this happened

I'd go a lil' further. The main tech disruptions have been Netflix, Spotify, Uber and Deliveroo? Now nobody can make shows, musicians can't live from royalties, taxi drivers are debt laden, restaurants have to jack their prices and ghost kitchens mean you don't know where your food came from.

lord all i ask is that you blow up every printer simultaneously and make sure they feel pain

make it stopppppppppp

I remember when "What's the worst that can happen?" was a rhetorical question instead of a section of the newspaper.

Every time someone proudly posts "so I asked chatgpt" they're saying something *incredibly* fucking embarrassing without realizing it. It's like walking into a party absolutely covered in dogshit and not understanding why all these people are being so mean and rude

This is the review that got me blacklisted by EA. Some shitbag executive wanted me fired.

My heart ached when I was reminded that Aaron Swartz was prosecuted for trying to make academic knowledge more accessible to the public. Meta, meanwhile, is doing it for their own bottom line. I'm going to guess that no one at Meta will be looking at spending 35 years in jail for this.

UK people, if you want to put pressure on Labour to be less crap on, well, a bunch of things, you can write to your MP. There are several easy ways to do this, like www.writetothem.com Or you can just find their details yourself members.parliament.uk/FindYourMP /1

If you’re in the UK, and have ever shared some story on here about the discrimination trans people face with a comment about how awful it is, or ever wished there was something you could do, then you need to sign this.

feels like it's time to break this out again

Normal people: You should ban child torture Labour Party: Well, we met some people from the How to Torture Your Child Discord and they said a ban would actually be *more* harmful Centrists: Truly this is a complex issue 🤔 There are no easy answers 😞

I paid sixty dollars for No Man's Sky nine years ago and they refuse to stop making the video game. I've begged them to go home to their families but they won't stop adding new kinds of weird little guys and like, optimizing the gentle patter of rain on an alien ocean. Please let me pay for a DLC

every example of how AI could be useful is like “if you were eating cereal, AI could tell you what cereal you were eating”

The most consistent cast iron law of anyone encouraging the further use of AI - especially in terms of public contracts - is that they’re an AI salesman.

when you hit 30 years old you should unlock fast travel

using "ambushed" and "attacked" to describe a priest begging the most powerful man in the world to show kindness to the most vulnerable is the hallmark of a society that values cruelty and despises compassion

Oh come on >:(

People sharing the menu locations of the “option to disable AI” on everyday software with the desperate energy so familiar from lines such as “you have to separate the head from the body, sever the brain stem” and “there’s a vent at the back of the neck that you have to hit”.

Morning.

I am once again asking you, if you live in the UK to sign this, and as if you don’t live in the UK to share this as your followers might be in the UK and will be able to sign this.

my favourite game to play in the supermarket is called "big night in?" and involves trying to find the person in the supermarket it would be funniest to say "big night in?" to given the contents of their basket most recent winner: a woman with two kiwis and some surgical gloves

‘We Must Protect The Pure Aryan Bloodline,’ Says Child After 9 Minutes Of Unsupervised Facebook Access

The purpose of art is to show the world what it's not ready to see

Dear Tech Companies, No. We don't want "A.I." anything. We don't want A.I. social media "friends." We don't want A.I.-generated news reporters or anchors. We don't want A.I. to curate our music or make our movies. We REALLY don't want A.I. put in charge of our insurance claims or kids' education.

y'all don't know how long I've been looking for this video

This takes five seconds. Ten if you count clicking the confirmation link. Do this thing!

To an asshole, all virtue is "virtue signaling."

As a result of getting it free with my new phone, I am now a Smartwatch Person. Thoughts and prayers for me in these troubled times. (If anyone has any tips for using the thing in a way that isn't going to give Google my inseam size, genome and deepest fears, please share)

waaaaay too many people in the middle imo

Before you dismiss me as just an AI hater, you should know I'm all-in on Fully Automated Luxury Queer Space Communism. I dream of a world where machines do the work for us and we’re free to create art. Do you have any idea how furious I am that we're getting automated bullshit generators instead?

You can tell companies’ AI projects are going really well because every app is bait-and-switching their most commonly pressed button with something called like “Answers By Glorp” to get people to even accidentally use it

this is a pretty solid argument for why we need actual games writers to make good game of the year lists
