I love when I can see the work in a piece of art. Practical effects in film, brush strokes on canvas, strange sounds in music, "impossible" visuals in games. It puts me in conversation with the artist. That's why - ethics aside - art created with AI is just so disappointing. There's no work to see.

For the record, war should be illegal.
The same goes for those last 5 episodes of Game of Thrones.

By the logic laid out by MaterCard, the Avengers, the Godfather and Game of Thrones are all now illegal.
Also every war, and many forms of disability.

Valve breaking silence on this is huge, they really dont do this. Companies, at this scale, dont -do this-.
Visa, mastercard, stripe and paypal are feeling the pressure. They are making mistakes under pressure.

The lackluster Donkey Kong redesign in Bananaza made me realize… Mario games character designs are same-y and kind of bland and sterile.
The interesting Mario characters designs are all made in spin-offs.

All I think about when I hear people say that it’s bad taste to dance on Hulk Hogan’s grave is that Emmett Till’s monument had to be replaced with a 500lb steel bulletproof monument because white people simply won’t stop riddling it with bullets. So now it just has tons of dents. From bullets.

This came out five months ago but new people keep discovering it every few weeks and make it go viral. That's nice and all but the unfortunate part is that we still have no idea whether this guy is still actively working for ICE because ICE won't say.
REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

Most of the internet used to be like this. This is actually the default, it took companies enclosing the internet and adding weird, soul-killing incentives to make people behave the way they do now. In a way, there is truly nothing special about Wikipedia except that it survived longer.

Emmett Till would be 84 today.
Not 114. Not 104.
84.
He would be my uncle. Not great-great or great uncle. One of my parents' siblings. This is why we remember.
