I have watched Warfare. It was.... a thing. I'm struggling wondering what the point was, other than Alex Garland wanting to make a level from Full Spectrum Warrior into a film.

Wild to think that everyone could be free and happy and their true selves and have a basic income and healthcare and have their needs understood and met by society and not be displaced or killed and instead we’re choosing this

This is not surprising, but very scary. Gen AI is dangerous & will destroy human brains if people keep giving into laziness & choose stealing. I fucking hate AI. SAY NO TO GEN AI!!!

I don't know if anyone has written about this, but the thing where Google's engineers have designed this software program to spit out text that simulates contrition, grovelling apology feels like something close to admission that they've designed a program they KNOW is fraudulent +are covering it up

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.

Golden ripples kiss the shore, As a lighthouse stands forevermore. Silent sentinel, bold and bright, Guiding dreams through fading light. The tide retreats, the rocks reveal, Secrets only Dusk can steal. Peaceful, proud this sacred land, Carved by time and nature’s hand.

Any industry eliminating entry level roles where new, younger employees learn on the job before promotion to more advanced, decision-making roles is sawing through the branch it's sitting on.

I finally watched Conclave. I like that Ralph Fiennes has the same energy as Kermit the Frog trying to keep The Muppet Show from going off the rails.

Son #2's school is setting up a wargaming club, so he asked for some heavy support for his Imperial Fists. Nearly there.

Another Australian cultural institution failing to uphold its own values. Another person punished and silenced for opposing war crimes. Another cultural institution that doesn’t have the bravery to speak honestly about its straight up censorship. Weak as piss. www.slq.qld.gov.au/about/news-a...
