The People's Luigi

Best things of 2025 thread. This time is for real.

Austin being the testing ground for "AI Cars" means testing the logical endpoint of the Traffic Capacity Problem: What if all the cars were empty and still causing traffic jams?

Something to understand about the AI freaks. It's not just the money fraud aspect that's making them push it so hard. These are people who completely lack the ability and will to do anything that isn't going to immediately generate coin. This is truly a revolution to them. bsky.app/profile/davi...

So can we talk about how stupid Dems allowed Ellon Musk to buy twitter at the same time they paved the way for Larry Ellison to control Tiktok and this sort of shit didn't just handled the US to the fascists but it has also already ruined Germany and Brazil?

Netflix has told several people going forward with new pitches that they plan for all animated shows from now on to be AI. I've heard this more than once now.

I don't want to do anything, not ever again.

Adventure time somehow ended up getting incredible cosmology. e.g, the four elements: Candy: Cope Ice: Depression Slime: Assimilation Fire: Rage.

I can't believe he's still at it, it's been days

I think writers can be a funny bunch. "Show don't tell" is a strong mantra. But then they'd do shit like letting us see a character's dreams and nightmares.

even if you are able to put aside all the other issues with AI-first development, every game you love is that way because a handful of perverts went insane spending thousands of hours tweaking variables the end player may not realize existed.

I can't believe you people ignored my "Nabokov's Andor" joke

cant believe ethan klein fans are like "this is my personal 9/11". first of all, where's your loyalty, it's your personal oct 7

Imagine being Dorothy Catalunya and be like. "Hey you losers, I brought a bunch of buses so you can take them and go protest against the fascist pawns piloting 15 ft tall death machines, are you going to join or are you going to save Christmas or are you a bunch of pussies?"

Sorry but I keep laughing at Ethan Klein's podcast crew announcing "We are safe" in their big post-affair Instagram post. I honestly did not think you weren't safe. I didn't think you take environmental damage every time your boss gets an erection

The 5% is basically the democrat position

She's not the kind of person that would kill you over a petty thing. She's the kind of person that would convince your best friend to kill you and make him think it was his idea.

I mean sure. But if first they start caring if their Cyber correspondent knows about PHP. Then they might start having to do crazy shit such as only letting people that are well-informed about trans issues write about queer topics. It's a dangerous slippery slop. bsky.app/profile/joda...

Maybe the BBC should get someone who actually knows what he is talking about then.

Updated to Latest Firefox and they added a stupid combo box thing to the sidebar whose main purpose seems to be to annoy me and use space and also mismatch the theme.

this is where i learned that the american revolution was basically because the so-called founding fathers were dogshit farmers and didnt do crop rotation and wanted to take more native land to ruin but the crown didnt let them, so they invented america

Still confused about them remaking the Beerus arc, again.

Breaking Bad is unrealistic because IRL Walt would have been bragging about his feats on Reddit and would have gotten caught easily from that.

This is a good illustration of how so much of AI theft isn't indirect (ie, data sucked into a model to train the chatbot) - it's actually **direct** copying, but *enabled* by GenAI. Of course it is: chatbots absolutely suck at creating good, new stuff.

I saw someone's prompts once by accident on reddit and I found this out the hard way when their genai prompt explicitly said "make it look like whatever is trending on artstation"

Really sad news today about EA cutting 400 jobs in Bionicle

Sakurai believes increased AI usage is set to lead to unoriginal and unprofitable games #Repost https://mynintendonews.com/2026/10/21/sakurai-believes-increased-ai-usage-is-set-to-lead-to-unoriginal-and-unprofitable-games/

The wealth transfer economy.

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...

OpenAI: "Our shitty employees gave our shitty AI wrong instructions and it followed them in a way our shitty employees didn't expect ¨ The Press: THE AI IS DISABLING ITS OWN GUARDRAILS AND LYING ABOUT IT. bsky.app/profile/tech...
