OpenAI says it has proof that Deepseek used its work without permission to create something meant to undermine and destroy its product.
On behalf of all the authors whose novels and stories were taken as training data, oh no that must be so hard for you.

Why is it that giving a shirt or sweater to someone you’re not that close to seems fine but gifting pants to anyone other than a partner/children seems way too personal??

One thing I like about Bluesky is the lack of embedded videos. Towards the end, Twitter was just all videos all the time. I like this type of social media most when it’s text based.

Took the kids hiking at Big Basin Redwoods State Park and saw 22 banana slugs. Which means I now have 22 banana slug pictures on my phone because #kids. Here’s one. Their eyes are on the end of those antenna and if the antenna breaks off, they just grow a new one. Wild!

Our Thanksgiving week with my MIL ❤️ So tender.
I continue to be amazed at all the ways the end of life feels so much like the beginning. I'm here, cutting food into tiny chunks, telling my mom kind falsehoods, helping get arms through sleeves, and lately, peeking over every once in a while to make sure her chest is rising and falling.

Now ol’ Peter was kosher,
he always had been
But the church, it was growing,
Gentiles coming in.
So God laid Peter out,
dreaming of pork raining down,
Pete woke and said “Pass the bacon, boys. It’s all kosher now.”

I feel a little weird like when politicians publicly tell on themselves by asking “why is there so much porn on my feed?” but it’s obviously because they keep liking it and I don’t think I’m doing that with the foxes…
Does everyone see more-than-a-reasonable-person-would-expect amounts of pizza and fox photos on here or just me? 🍕 🦊 🤔
