ONE TYPE OF PERSON ON SOCIAL MEDIA: I don’t like AI THE OTHER TYPE OF PERSON ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Pretty naïve of you to say that when it just zip zorped the gringle in less than seven kleebs. SEVEN. KLEEBS.

Video games are RUINING gaming. RT if you think gaming was better before games

Is there a setting that will prevent me from seeing ads for Ted Lasso, especially on my TV? The advertising algorithm should know that those ads won't work on me.

The Odyssey took a much different interpretation of those characters than the Hades games did. I'm not sure which one I prefer. Hades definitely had better songs.

One time on TNG the computer generated a holodeck program based on Sherlock Holmes, but not directly a Sherlock Holmes story. I'm sorry, that's generative AI. The holodecl is art theft.

Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are all planning huge layoffs. Amazon got $17.5B in federal tax breaks last year. Jeff Bezos is worth $270B. Meta saved $13.7B in taxes. Mark Zuckerberg is worth $210B. Microsoft saved $12.5B last year. Its CEO is worth $1.3B. This is what a rigged economy looks like.

I just started watching The Sopranos for the first time. It's a great show, but it would be even better if it was set on a starship instead of New Jersey

I think all of my unsuccessful romances can be blamed on the fact that my makeout playlist is just 15 covers of Cotton-eye Joe

They should release a version of The Wolf of Wall Street where the main character is replaced with a computer generated anthropomorphic wolf

I'm just now realizing that Wayne Gretzky and Wayne Brady are different people. I'm embarrassed that I had them mixed up all this time.

It’s inaccurate to say Mario is brave and Luigi is cowardly Luigi is afraid of death, so he runs away from danger. Mario is afraid of living, so he runs towards death. Both brothers are cowards in their own way

I don't want Star Trek films anymore, I want a series with good characters and stories (like maybe one set in the school)

I've been trying different milk alternatives since the '90s, and I have to say that oat milk has nailed it for me. What a great product!!

I have declared that April 5th through 11th is officially Hot Dog Week. To prep for the summer, eat at least one hot dog every day of the week, but on Saturday you must eat three hot dogs.

Just a reminder of that time Gene Roddenberry said that he wished he had had gay sex, believed everyone was on some level bisexual, wanted LGBT rep on Trek & hoped he was “not male or female”, aka nonbinary in modern parlance. Anyways, tell me how Roddenberry would consider a gay Klingon bad?

I still think about the time a Canadian colleague saw my Lego space shuttle in the meeting video, and referred to it as "that American space plane"

I think Nvidia is using DLSS 5 to force us to get used to shitty AI generated faces because they have a vested interest in things like fully AI actors and they know that many people are currently repulsed by them. They're trying to wear us down.
