I have always said it, I will continue to say it, we are limiting the productive potential of millions of freaks by demanding they earn a wage to survive instead of enabling them to do whatever thing their brain is broken for

The Tzeentch piece is one of my favourite bits of Warhammer art
Now that WarCom is doing Age of Sigmar anniversary posts, this is a great opportunity to reminisce about the early Age of Sigmar artwork. And when I think about early Age of Sigmar, I think about the art of Tze Kun Chi, one of the greatest modern Warhammer artists.

If you're using AI to write essays, eulogies, a text to your wife, I do think less of you as a person. Ceding your mental and creative abilities to a machine is an embarrassing thing and people should be ashamed to admit doing it in public.
![[quoting a tweet by fractalcounty that reads, “today I learned that there are actual people irl who get genuinely upset if they catch you using chatgpt. like they view it as a serious moral failing in certain circles”]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hppum4l25hcczzffastsicpq/bafkreihjvnz2ttxl7z4a2b3a4kylubobgvqxmjhwz6yuetuztzoc4g2s4y@jpeg)

This has over 268k signatures now, and the more, the merrier! If you're in the UK and haven't signed this, please do so! There are two days until a debate date is set, and the weight of numbers is important.
The damage this and the payment processor puritanism are doing is substantial.

Nearly every time I see someone talk about what they use AI for it's something I would never, ever use it for even if it didn't hallucinate all the god damn time.
I don't need it to fact check or summarise anything since actually reading things and looking into them is like... fun? And rewarding?

While I get the HH is a big game, I do wish there was a smaller game mode to aim for while you're building your stuff. Gonna take 10,000 years to get 3k points on the board.

Somebody asked me if I'd heard that there were immortal people on the Yendian Plane, and somebody else told me that there were, so when I got there, I asked about them.
