Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

After another long break we're back at the wheel! Tonight's movie is Tigers are not Afraid. Apparently I recommended this for the wheel but I couldn't tell you at this point where I found it. Let's see how it goes!

Whaaaat? The company that makes games cynically built from the ground up to target and extract the most amount of money possible from neurodivergent people is being evil? Who could have guessed?
Several months ago, actors made it clear that they were withholding work from Genshin Impact because of a lack of basic AI protections

Hoyo fans told them it would/could never be an issue

This is the future of Windows. Microsoft wants to rewrite Windows to turn computers into AI PCs that you talk to. It's now bringing AI features to all Windows 11 PCs today, in a bid to convince you to talk to your PC and let AI control it. Full details 👇 www.theverge.com/news/799768/...

Aww balls!

So sad to hear that Drew Struzan has passed. I think like most peeps from my generation we were all familiar with his art work. Like I had about 4 posters of his work on my walls growing up.

Anyway lets fill our TL with his amazing work, spread the love of his magical work.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.
