This is a message to the enemies of immigration enforcement: Gov. Newsom’s fate will be yours should you stand in the way of national purity,” an anonymous plainclothes ICE agent wearing a balaclava theonion.com/ice-rel...

You fight for a zygote, but cheer when a child is ripped from a mother‘s arms by ICE. Tells me everything I need to know about you.

That's what's been bugging me -- I remember, when I was a yoot, assertions that language usage *required* intelligence, and so we would never have natural language processing until we had machine intelligence. Like every other "if it does this it must be intelligent" benchmark, it was wrong.

Hive mind, your literally knowledge please: Examples of mothers who abandon their marriage and children in 1920s/1930s books. Ideally UK. The better known the better? Scandalous / unsympathetic characters fine but more nuance would be better. I know there are some but my memory is drawing a blank.

@inaturalist.bsky.social We’re all gonna need some details on what your plan is with this AI stuff.

Yeah my job is pretty cool. My uniform is a tactical vest that’s two sizes too small and a gaiter I bought in a gas station. They send me to sneak into schools to kidnap little kids because people got mad about having to press 1 for English. The president had to warn everyone to stop spitting on me.

Whenever police lawlessness is caught on camera: think about how much isn't being caught on camera.

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

secondary complaint, but it's just as important how do you even get a "crossfire" when only one side brought any guns?
