70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

Plaster those "100% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes!" blurbs on every piece of marketing you can find and bump those numbers up even more, let's make this HAPPEN.

AI is a scourge. But it is important not to trust "AI detectors". I lost regular freelancing work because my client insisted I used AI to write copy (I didn't, but their AI detecting software said I did). This is a great thread with an excellent example of why these detectors cannot be trusted.

yeahhh, fucking THIS looking for textile art inspiration? ruined by AI doing writing research via literally any search engine? ruined by AI looking at pictures of food? ruined by AI caring about the environment? ruined by AI

Dolly Parton was a friend to science, literacy, and the queer community when not many else dared. If you’re looking for a way to remember her, consider donating to her Imagination Library, which has provided over 330 million books for children internationally. imaginationlibrary.com

These people will never shut the fuck up and make something worthwhile with their stupid slop machines but they will endlessly whine and whine and whine and whine about not getting credit for being able to pull the arm on a slot machine. Simply not enough scorn heaped upon them yet.

Because they can be. Because they know society is unwilling to do the only thing that would hurt them, which is to disengage entirely from every system that openly exists off the pain and suffering of millions of people. But we won't. We love convenience, entertainment, and numbing our own pain.

Let’s all take a minute to appreciate @novacrystallis.com once more for their insane dedication to live coverage at high level of detail. I want that team to know they’re loved!!

it happened to us, it can happen to you. pls don't assume you're just gonna know it when you see it, *especially* for short, experimental work

Another Exciting Adventure in American Fascism

This country was one person's vote away this morning from putting any birthright citizen in danger of being deported tomorrow. We are so much closer to the abyss than we think. Man oh man.

I’m not going to hail Barrett and Roberts for allowing us to count our votes. It’s a huge win for democracy, but it shouldn’t have even been a question. That we were one vote away from disenfranchising votes is all the more reason to expand the court in 2029.

Zines are now a federal crime in the United States. They are setting precedent to go after anyone they want for writing or reading anything they don't like.

They're saying the quiet part out loud now. Jenny Maxwell, head of education for Grammarly/Superhuman: “We’re doing a huge pedagogical upheaval in education,” she said, calling it a “burn it down moment. We’re just in the early stages.” Burn down higher ed without any plan to rebuilt. Gift link.

We Will Beat You, DOGE And Musk. We're On The Good Side Of Things,And We Won't Be Stopped. Hey Elon,We Hear You're No Longer A "Trillionaire",This must hurt Your HUGE Ego.......

💰 @grahamformaine.bsky.social PLATNER: “Wall Street’s takeover of our economy wasn’t an accident... We are living in a system operating exactly as intended… policy choices made by establishment politicians in the service of people who donated the most money to them. And it needs to end.”

All future consoles may cost a bare minimum of $1000 but at least you can ask chatgpt if it's raining outside

⚠️ WARNING: ICE abducted a pet owner, leaving two dogs to starve for a week. Only the landlord saved them. This isn't a mistake; it’s a sickening pattern. When agencies treat people as disposable, innocent lives become collateral. This cruelty must end.

Yesterday, my mother & stepfather lost their farm home & everything in it in a devastating fire. I have set up a GoFundMe to help support them as much as I can. Even if you can't donate, please share this story! Thank you💜 gofund.me/4ef3a74cb

We have to end his power in November. It is life or death.

The problem here is all of these people know they're in a race against the clock to get all of this done before the tide turns. And by "all of this," I basically mean the destruction of anything that could criticize the post-Constitutional technofeudalist society they're hastily trying to stand up.

if you did your fucking concept art by stealing people's works and regurgitating them with AI, what fucking 'creative and artistic vision' do you have. god i am so tired.

I'm sure most of you know about this bastard thing already but I'd missed it. Just in case you have also been living under a rock here's some info about Microsoft using AI in Windows 11 and how to turn it off (because, of course, it's on by default).

INDEED 💥💥💥

Corruption in plain sight. It will take a decade to fix this debacle. #TrumpCorruption

You know, differing ideas and opinions will always be a thing and should always be a thing, but whenever some website, company, or individual defends generative AI in any way whatsoever, I immediately don't trust them and want them to shut up. Stop acting like we're helpless unless AI protects us.

I’m gonna post this video every day so we NEVER FORGET what Donald Trump did to the USA on Jan 6th

I'll admit what is or isn't an "indie" game is tricky. You can have a solo dev get picked up by a big publisher or you can have an actual independent studio staffed by industry veterans. But I'm sick of this idea that "indie" has to mean "low-budget" or that they have to LOOK a certain way.

i have completely given up on playing the algo on other social medias because 1) it never brings my work to my intended audience, only to randoms who don't even like it lol 2) it SUCKS and makes me TIRED so now ouj only spreads by word of mouth. if you've ever said anything about it then thank you!

I'm sick and goddamn tired of evil people claiming they're the only good ones because they have to have a book to tell them right from wrong, and since good people don't need such a book, they're evil. I'm sick and tired of hate filled thugs being upheld as beacons of virtue and decency. I'm tired.

Adding all the other attached screenshots for further context. Encouraging users to destroy the planet and engage in thievery for $15,000. The audacity of them to have RULES including “don’t plagiarise” when that’s what inherently genAI IS.

You won't have seen it on the News but right now Israel is destroying 600,000 homes in Lebanon, to move 2m out of 22% of Lebanon, so they can steal it all for themselves. A war crime not seen since Hitler, or Gaza.

certain people won't try pronouncing names from dawntrail but you bet your ass they're going to "um, actually" norse or celtic influences in evercold
