I've been ill whilst managing a situation at work this week, and the end result is I now have a sexy deep voice that keeps cutting out, I hurt in many new and interesting ways, and I'm falling asleep the same time as the kids.

If Nintendo and Illumination refuse to meet my demands, I'm boycotting the Super Mario Galaxy Movie!!

My demands: rearrange the twinkles on the logo so they once again spell "U R MR GAY".

Seeing some weird James Bond takes today. Obviously JB is one guy, played by a bunch of actors, portrayed in different time periods having inconsistent adventures. So long as some of the features are in roughly the right place, it's James Bond.

Oh, this is disappointing. Gebs has built a brand based purely off drama and playing the victim. Any time games directly come up, it's always the weakest-ass takes possible.

Someone at Bitmap has bad taste in content creators.
Hmm, this isn't a good look for Bitmap Books after their recent 'issues'.

Sponsoring a divisive grifter who tried to turn her community against a local business?

Post a non-religious image you think of as holy.

I often assumed that AI in sci-fi making increasingly illogical decisions was a symptom of being written by imperfect humans.

But who could have imagined something as stupid as a parrot machine that feeds on garbage?

Now I can believe robots being thick as pigshit very easily.

as a computer scientist, i am BEGGING people to realize that there is no cognition inside of an LLM

no reasoning, no thought process, no self-awareness

I read a lot of arguments (for AND against) LLMs, and both sides seem to think there’s a consciousness or intentionality or even a moral alignment

Post you from a different era.

From 2009, when I was alone, aloof, and playing a lotta Picross DS.

I saw a Gemini ad where the questions ramped up to "What is love?"

Of course the ad didn't show an answer. The point was "You'll be such good friends with our robot, you'll ask it deep and meaningful questions." Or maybe "AI users are pathetic addicts who have lost all perspective." Not sure.
every AI ad is like

“hey gemini, what would i have for lunch?”

and then the phone is like

“sandwich”

and the guy is like

“wow”

I am rude and impolite with constructive purpose.
If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

If I stand up, then I know I'll need to fill the dishwasher. So I'm just lying here on the sofa, delaying the inevitable and achieving precisely zilch.

Hey kids (people maybe four years younger than me), did you ever see a cartoon called Rocket Power, about kids doing extreme sports, and did you think it was non-boring? I'm giving you right to reply ahead of this weekend's podcast

My 6 year old has played like... half a dozen games. And she already understands that Bluey the Videogame is bad because it was made badly, and not because she doesn't understand it. I'm so proud!
