I don't know if this is a hot take... But anyone who claims someone else's hobby is a "red flag" (provided such hobby is not harming others) is, themselves, a walking red flag.

Dear Jensen Huang. I mean this with the utmost of disrespect when I say: Fuck you.
The cost of a new computer just went up 40% because of your shit AI that I don't want, won't use and will financially destroy us all when the bubble bursts, so no, I don't believe I will stop being negative about it.
They can hear you calling them monstrous shitheads trying to destroy society and the economy and it makes them sad.
So you just know the message is to keep doing it more and louder.

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny
It occurs to me all the yelling at ICE in MPLS isn't merely funny. Getting made fun of like this is awful for morale. ICE is losing field officers faster than it can wave them through training, and a big part of it is how little of this these little weasels can take.

It's worth your time to call Hilton to cancel your account with them. 1-800-446-6677. Here's why:
They asked me if it was because of the ICE thing. I said it was. Then they suggested I wait a couple days to see if they were going to change course.
The pressure is getting to them. Let's keep it up.

No matter what your stance on generative AI is, it's worth understanding that it's IMPOSSIBLE for a single company to train a useful AI purely on its own data.
What this actually means is "we'll use an AI trained on everybody's data, but we'll instruct it to only generate stuff in our style".

Allow me to be crystal clear. I absolutely understand AI. AI does not confuse me. AI is of *no real use* to me. AI is a drain on the resources that could otherwise be used for real and useful things.
