Don't be afraid to be afraid. No one ever did anything courageous when they weren't afraid and were gonna need a whole lot of courage.

Border Patrol's Greg Bovino likes to say his agents are welcomed by 99 percent of people in Chicago but as they drive around the city, they're met with constant shouts of "get the fuck out of here!"

It occurred to me this morning that the universal distaste for agentic AI might be that it mimics some of the worst behavior anyone commonly encounters. Ever talk to someone who'd make shit up rather than say, "Gee, I don't know." It sucks right? Now that, but pay money for the privilege.
Microsoft has been talking about Windows becoming an “agentic OS” and online feedback seems have been universally negative.
I’m personally skeptical that an AI infused Windows desktop does anything that having ChatGPT on my phone and Gemini in my browser doesn’t already do better.

Please share YouTube links to the most regionally specific representations of where and when you grew up. Like… local sandwich shop commercials. Footage of amateur theater productions. Hyper regional news stories. I wanna see it all.

So, what I'm hearing you say is that if the Ukranians can launch a successful man-in-the-middle attack, they get unlimited free ammo.
Russians unveiled a remote-controlled “Bukhanka” van, operated via a gaming wheel and pedals. Using Wi-Fi, 4G, and Starlink, it supposedly has unlimited range. The control module installs in 5 minutes, and Russians claim it will make delivering ammo and supplies to the front safer.

This is how the zombie apocalypse starts, isn't it?
the leader of the department of health literally runs away
everybody else rushes to the hurt guy and the Make America Healthy Again guy says "I gotta get outta here"
let a hundred gifs bloom

Meet our newest patient here at the Alaska Raptor Center, a Northern Pygmy Owl named King Owlbert by his rescuers. Owlbert arrived with a drooping wing, making flight difficult. We’ve given him a supportive wing wrap, plenty of tasty mice, and time to heal. #small #owls #adorable

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:
His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies
As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.

I would like to help with this.
If anyone wants to help me liberate Dick Cheney's grand jury transcript, LMK.
[He had a June 2004 interview with Pat Fitz, and then a later August 2004 interview, in Jackson Hole, that was treated as a GJ transcript. The latter is what I want.]
