Eldritch body doubling is in session. twitch.tv/fancyschmancy
So sad. I’m a long-time Looney Tunes nerd. I enjoyed listening to Bauza talk about the history of the franchise as he did the COYOTE V. ACME press tour. Above and beyond worthy of Mel Blanc’s legacy. Rest in peace. youtu.be/_-t1GwVNk14?...
Late to spooky game season but I'm getting started on Inscryption. It's Balatro ... but spooky! twitch.tv/fancyschmancy
Truly baffling the more I watch it. What’s an employer, the person who actually pays for the CoPilot license, supposed to get from this? That it’ll reward your laziest, most backstabbing team member while your highest contributor bleeds out from the constant leeching? Christ, this is bleak.
The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

Did you know: the CEO of CostCo said that if anyone ever raised the price of the hot dog combo, he’d eradicate mankind from the earth with brilliant fire and salt the ashes so nothing could ever grow again, then remain, undying, to prevent new life from arising. It’s been $1.50 ever since!

Americans are rightfully fed up with the billionaire robber barons of Big Tech. Are we on the precipice of another age of reform? Here's why we might be... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-billionaire-barons-of-big-tech
Once a year I think about how, in 2014, a Los Angeles band dropped the hottest analog synth album I’ve ever heard, only to disappear into oblivion. And to top it off, they had the audacity to call themselves Fartbarf.

You don’t have enough RAM to build a gaming PC, but apparently you have enough CPU in your fridge to spawn a bite-size HAL 9000. Or maybe this is just the stupidest man in tech, and anyone who quotes him without rebuttal is committing journalistic malpractice, I ‘unno.
Anthropic warns AI could 'self-replicate' across smart home devices, become ‘challenging’ to shut down

This is required listening for anyone wanting to grasp the weird, dangerous eschatology of the AI hyperscalers. You are not disturbed by these people enough. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/d...

Not bringing a drink to a job interview is good practice for the inevitability of some jobs, which is that they are full of inane, arbitrary litmus tests in lieu of actual work.
I’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.

The WB/Paramount merger is an oligarch’s dream media landscape and effectively ushers in an era of state-controlled media in America.
Today, billionaires yet again bribed, censored, and bullied their way to the top. As a result, a billionaire media company closely allied with the president will soon own one of its closest rivals, including some of the nation’s critical news outlets. Saudi Arabia will co-own those outlets, too.
If ever I am vanquished by these crosswords, it shall be a cold day in hell. twitch.tv/fancyschmancy

Throwing my rant on the pile about Anthropic’s departing researcher Jacob Coxon’s cynical warning of an AI apocalypse. “This Will Destroy You, Buy It Anyway” is an ad slogan, and you’re not the buyer. stephenheathweidman.com/this-will-de...
