I liked blockchain hype. CEOs had no clue what a blockchain was, so when they said to add one, the engineers just did what they had always done. With AI they've all dicked around with ChatGPT for an hour and won't be happy until some crappy LLM has been shoved into something that doesn't need it.

Funny. The White House acknowledges the emails were real and "leaked", but then called them a "hoax." They believe all Americans are as dumb as the people that voted for them.

It's obviously not the ✨MAIN THING✨ going on in the emails, but why is it every time a bunch of emails of super-powerful rich people gets leaked they always read like the communications of barely-literate children (I know the answer to this question)?
Lest there be any insinuation that Dems spared their own. It would be tough for Kathy Ruemmler—Obama’s WH Counsel from 2011 to mid-2014—to come off looking worse in these docs the committee Dems released. oversightdemocrats.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

It pains me that there is an entire generation of people who have now grown up trained to view manipulative, engagement-farming gambling games as the norm for video games.

There are countless people who have formative, nostalgic memories of opening loot boxes and the excitement of gacha ten-pulls

German court rules that OpenAI violated copyright laws by training ChatGPT on music 🎵

• May set precedent for Europe AI copyright uses

• OpenAI disagrees & can appeal

Aaaand there's the first part of the Enshittification of Affinity. "Free", but tied to a Canva Account (a.k.a YOU are the product), AI Features shoehorned in, but only useable by people with a premium canva subscription.

And Affinity V2 is no longer purchaseable.

Fun while it lasted, I guess.

Its author its famous for its educational books, like "Cathedral", "Castle" or "The Way Things Work", but this parody book is a fun way to reflect on how documentation and the archaeological context are important when thinking about the past, and how we should treat ancient cultures.

I think that most archaeology and history students are aware of "The Motel of Mysteries", a 1979 satirical book made by David Macaulay, set in the far future, in which an amateur archaeologist finds a preserved american motel room, but without any other context believes it to be a burial chamber.

The finale of the great TV comedy show Blackadder goes Forth.
Back then I didn't expect one of the funniest programmes ever to end with a scene that makes me cry every time I see it.
Every single time.

One of the biggest studies ever done, showing that not only do we not have an advantage, we may have a disadvantage, commissioned by who? The IOC

radical take here but i think that running out of money shouldnt put you in absolute misery actually.

Running out of money at worst should make you unable to buy luxuries. You cant buy a TV, gaming PC, whatever.

Running out of money should never make you homeless, starving, or unable to see

Man, I wish this was true. The Dem party would actually be worth voting for.
Trump: "What the Democrats will do is make Puerto Rico a state, make DC a state, they're gonna pack the Court. They're gonna end up with more electoral votes. They're gonna end up with 4 senators. And they're gonna do this 100%."

THIS IS THE SHIT I CONSTANTLY GO ON ABOUT!

"...must demonstrate consent between adult participants"

IT'S FICTION, THEY DO NOT EXIST

Consent is a property only possessed by the living, it is a fucking insult to anyone whose had their consent violated to flippantly assign it to fictional characters
