It's not that memory or storage gets expensive, it's that it's being taken off the market to go directly to a few companies. You can't even buy things, regardless of how expensive things are.

I wished more media was writing not just about how the "AI" buildout increases prices but actively bars people from building their own independent infrastructures.
"AI" is not just poisoning the infosphere but taking away your ability to build alternatives.

A photo of a cat under a bed with a rotisserie chicken with the caption: This is Beans. Beans stole a while rotisserie chicken off the counter. Not a piece. The whole chicken. Beans dragged it under the bed and growled at us for forty minutes. Beans is 9 pounds.

If you see someone wearing Ray-Bans, that person is a tremendous asshole and you should loudly tell them to stop recording you. Even if they're not recording, or even wearing the glasses that can record, make it uncomfortable for them. Make Ray-Bans sales crash. Punish them.

Meta is putting a "Name Tag" feature in Ray-Bans - facial recognition through the glasses' camera. You look at someone, AI tells you who they are.
In an internal document, the company wrote that the timing is good because civil society groups are busy with politics and won't cause problems.

r/analytics • IOh We just found out our AI has been making up analytics data for 3 months and I'm gonna throw up. Support So we've been using an Al agent since November to answer leadership questions about metrics. It seemed amazing at first fast answers, detailed explanations, everyone loved it. I just found out it's been hallucinating numbers this entire time. Our VP of sales made territory decisions based on data that didn't exist. Our CFO showed the board a deck with fake insights. The Al was just inventing plausible sounding percentages. I only caught it by accident when someone asked me to double check something. I started digging, and holy shit, it's bad.

Displaying Team USA Olympic figure skater Ilia Malnin on a CRT brings out a lot of the artist-intended details that get lost with pure pixels, this is why so many of us retain vintage hardware

I really wanna get the Console Archives version of Ninja Gaiden II - but it'd been decades since I played it last and it was the one game of the trilogy I could always finish without dying once. I'm not sure I'm ready to face my mortality.

Power Girl: It's unfair that Ted and Booster get two bedrooms when they spend every night sleeping together. Ted Kord: We're just having sleepovers. Booster Gold: A perfect normal thing for adult men to have. Power Girl: For six straight months? Ted Kord: We're very good at sleepovers. Booster Gold: We could probably go pro.

There are some Star Trek fans weirdly obsessed with “decorum” and they really fixate on how Holly Hunter sits in the captain’s chair on STARFLEET ACADEMY. One guy left a comment on the official FB whining about it and so Captain Janeway herself responded to drop the hammer

Hello! I see you've decided to conflate a human being being an evil fascist apologist committing crimes and perpetuating fraud with (checks notes) being a woman. Perhaps you would like to not do this.

Bondi is clearly going through menopause. “…mood changes and "brain fog," often begin during perimenopause (mid-40s to early 50s) - along with irrational moods and temper tantrums

The exploit has nothing to do with the AI features, this is a a markdown exploit lol. I mean still, 'why are you fucking up notepad for no reason' but lets not make shit up
portalrealm.bsky.social Portalrealm @portalrealm.bsky.social · 3d
The AI features added to Notepad created a critical exploit vulnerable to loading a compromised txt file.

The fix is part of Patch Tuesday, so update your systems.

AI is not a feature I ever desired in Notepad. I should look into some alternatives...
AI-upgraded Notepad now exposes Windows users to critical exploit
A critical remote code execution vulnerability found in the AI-upgraded Windows 11 Notepad has fueled renewed criticism of Microsoft's forced AI feature creep.

Mason @realMasonMohon : 1h You have a pride flag in your bio. You obviously think marriage is a term with no actual content that can be applied to anything. No wonder we say you don’t understand marriage Ephraim Stone @TEStoneWrites - ih The rainbow in my bio is a reminder that G-D will never again bring destruction to creation, that His covenants are eternal, that his word is unfailing, and that His gifts to my foremothers and forefathers are everlasting.

Like, there's a reason why we talk about "bodice rippers" as the go-to romance subgenre. Are they allergic to money?

Invoking wealthy class solidarity to excuse sex crimes against children is sorta the Epstein Class in a nutshell

Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

This would have been a good point for someone to have asked, is that really how things work? Or is vacuum in fact an excellent insulator? www.ft.com/content/a5cf...

The tech billionaire, who aims to launch an initial public offering for the newly combined company this year, argues that vast fleets of satellites powered by solar energy and cooled by the vacuum of space will become the cheapest way to generate AI computing power. Musk believes this will happen within the next three years.
