arabs can’t make science, anyway stay away from vaccines and eat more spoiled food

The Bulwark@thebulwark.com

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

I still think AI systems should be paying me 150k per copyright violation. People keep asking me 'what laws do we need for AI?' and I keep saying 'enforce the fucking ones we already have!' There are copyright laws that should be being enforced right now that just... aren't. B/c it's billionaires.

Fellow WA voters, let's bury this. I can't imagine any parent wants to subject their child to this vile "examination."

Doctors and nurses are voicing their objections. I-638 would require EVERY girl who wants to participate in sports to go through biological sex verification. That means expensive, invasive, and utterly gross examinations. Protect our kids and let them play. Vote NO on I-638

Gonna do a Nathan Fielder bit where I get an MBA, become an exec at a game company, pitch the idea of selling more copies of a game than it cost to make and then eventually become CEO of all video games.

Consolidation is killing our industry. The Gamergaters who make money off the rage game will have you think this is a victory. This is purely a loss. A loss of work and art and fun and expression in a space that desperately needs it. Massive fucking bummer.

i found liberty biberty dead on top of my car. i called about an investigation or a toxicology report or something and they said to just put it in the garbage and not worry about it. another thing i gotta deal with

food for thought (which a machine did for me bc i forgot how)

Opinion: If AI is now part of academic writing, what should institutions actually evaluate? This essay argues that analytical writing should be judged by evidence, structure, argument, and accountability not by guesses about how each sentence was produced. https://chroni.cl/4eDRdjg

Fuck you if your bag of chips doesn't have a story on the back about why your founder decided to pursue a new approach to chips

today i had to do one of the most disgusting homeowner things imaginable, and while i am v grateful for a home, there is always an unforeseen disgusting act of god hidden in the workings of a house to be surprised by

we have nothing left!! discord's selling your data to poorly secured third parties. The entirety of bsky staff has AI psychosis. twitter is ran by a fascist pedophile, tumblr is censorship happy, patreon disables your account of you breathe wrong, youtube's demonetization algo is inscrutable

saying “i vibe-coded it” allows others to have an opinion on the quality of the result. why not own that part too with “i vibe-completed it” or “i vibe-perfected it”

Here’s what happened— 1. In an attempt to be your good whore, I pushed an older production build to the live server which corrupted the client database backup. This was a massive overstep on my part and was not remotely brat.

love the wired article about how muse can sext, and how fast it jumps right into domming the user with zero preamble or boundaries or comprehension of anything. just what we need in a shopping assistant

imagining someone using chatgpt to like, play D&D for them or something. Like brother just quit if you don't want to do it.

can’t think of a better example of AI being mostly a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist also it can’t help when this is your user base

Just landed in Melbourne! Come see me this weekend; it’s your only chance Aussies because that flight was hell and I’m never doing that again 😘

I’m coming to Australia. My mom warned me not to go to the beach because it’s dangerous.

keep kids safe and avoid ANY cinema burdened with these distressing topics. we assign a scalar value to each—putting power BACK in parents’ hands.

@krisstraub.com and I came up with a powerful system for assessing the purity of a given film - ensuring it's right for YOUR family. (W) Waste (I) UNUSED (S) Snakes (D) Detritus (O) Ophidians (M) Messy

ChatGPT is adding the signatures of real New Yorker cartoonists to its AI-generated images. So far, I've found the signatures of more than 15 contributors. "It’s slop, and unlike the other slop that I’ve encountered, this is slop that’s pretending to be me." www.niemanlab.org/2026/10/chat...
