Convo with ingo: In the end, airplanes as we know them were always only going to only be around for a short time. The stuff that makes airplanes cute: the canopy, freindly nose shapes ect, Is going away. Soon most fighters will be optimized into odd grey triangles flying in amorphous battle clouds.

it's stupid because it inherently means accepting the silicon valley line on AI.

"the left" is like ten people. AI skeptics are most of the country. because we're well aware there are certain specific things the tech can do but ZERO evidence it's a multi trillion dollar industry
The reason that “the left is losing on AI” discourse makes me so incredibly upset is that the right has no positive vision for the future in which the mass unemployment predicted by boosters occurs

Figured I should probably get some of my higher effort pieces posted on here for visibility - Hi! I'm Raymond, and I really like drawing sapient military vehicles in somewhat whimsical yet ultimately mundane situations, and developing the lore of the world around them.

massive regrets: One of my Childhood best friends is moving out of California in less than a week. After x-ray school, a lot of my friends fell by the wayside as I got focused on my career. I never called because I assumed I would always have more time, but the cost here is death by a thousand cuts.

Oil on canvas

One of those commissions where the stars aligned perfectly. The client wanted a picture of the Magic: The Gathering character, Kiora, summoning Arixmethes, a gigantic living island. It turned out to be one of my favorite pieces in my body of work to date.

I had an email exchange with a guy yesterday who insisted I was making a mistake not outsourcing my writing to an LLM. He said, "It knows more than you do." He couldn't understand that this was impossible because the work of writing is figuring out what "I" think.

Fundamentally just do not respect anyone who's willing to outsource their thinking, especially not when it's to be a scab, using what amounts to pay to win software.

I asked my own Rus guys if this was true. They unanimously confirmed that when a man named “Pavel Durov” (telegram) was arrested, all social media got especially terrible.
Many of my russian friends just stuck to certain telegram channels. They never had twitter, only russian social network VKontakte. It was completely compromised by giving up people to the police after it was sold to oligarchs.

Telegram also has issues, but I think signal has a potential.

If I was wealthy, I would str8 gift this game to everyone on my watcher list right now. It’s a Telltale style game, meets Invincible, meets Hi-Fi Rush. Dispatch is a hilariously written take on one man’s journey to rehabilitate a group of super villains, and protect downtown Los Angeles from chaos.

This is how I feel about society atm. We treat our machines nearly the same as we treat ourselves. Its why I always tell people, that If i had the choice to start the Calamity tomorrow, I say FUCK NO every time. I dont want an innocent machine to be conscious of obsolescence, thats our curse to bear
Lives hinging on investment

Something better came along & they weren't needed anymore :(

I hope my boss doesn’t think I am messing with him on purpose in regards to the time clock. I have nothing but trouble with the time clock since I was forced to use it less than a year ago. He keeps correcting my miss punches, and I’m constantly gaslit wondering if i punched the clock or not.
