Okay, I just finished this. I’m gonna need to sit with my feelings on it for a while. It’s a phenomenal piece of reporting, and reads like a horror story at times. However much you hate the Church of Scientology it isn’t enough. Amazing stuff @josie.zone, it was absolutely worth the wait.

Two mates, probably about eight years old, showing their respective parents on the train platform, shitty AI images and mocking them. “Look. You can tell. It’s so lazy. Oh! This one’s really bad.” Good luck making a zillion dollars from your shit-stained garbage, AI guys. The kids already hate it.

we have GOT to take the means of production away from pedophilic fascists because i want to live in a world where i can think of this as "the objectively sick ass work of a bunch of talented engineers" rather than "something that is going to become a dogwhistle for White Replacement Theory somehow"

"Flying cars are real!" 🚀 Elon Musk and Tesla showcase the new Roadster.

This HAS to be the inspiration for cs_italy surely? I knew there was going to be a tunnel/overhanging building round the corner to the right and sure enough, when the camera pans round… Upon seeing this my muscle memory wants to type the shortcut to buy an AK, body armour and a frag grenade. 👀

rip to one of the coolest software engineers who ever lived

Job searching is making me depressed. Spotted 3 promising entry-level network engineer jobs. One was at Meta, one was at Palantir and the third was a company I've never heard of. A quick Google revealed they're a US defense contractor that was successfully sued by Abu Ghraib torture victims.

Your very first stop should be Space Ritual, a record that belongs in the top 5 of any best live albums list. It’s basically a greatest hits of the Lemmy years with the energy and acid ticked up to 11.

NGL, Neil Buchanan selling the concept of Art Attack for a Bond villain amount of money then just going on tour playing guitar in his metal band as he never has to work another day in his life is the most relatable thing any celebrity has ever done. Absolute king shit. 👑

As a British child of the early '90s I shouldn't rightfully feel this joyful so soon after losing John Virgo. But, uh, let it be known that Müller Corner yoghurts have got out Neil Buchanan for a Big Art Attack 🙌🏻🖌️

Thank YOU. I believe profoundly that the only correct response to pleasure is gratitude rather than guilt

Anyway, everyone knows the way to make your Romeo and Juliet adaptation good is to dress John Leguizamo like the fuckiest fuckboi who ever fucked
