I want to try making an image posting bot for a Bluesky account but uuuh I'm not super familiar with anything in this realm. Currently trying to work it out with Python as it's what I have the most familiarity with

"social transition" being turned into a scary Issue when it's just wearing different clothes and changing your name (which anyone in england can do at any time for free by themselves anyway) is scary in itself. very hard right perspective on basic freedoms

Sora 2 apparently cost something like $5 billion to run every year and so far made OpenAI around $1.4 million.

My least favorite personality trait in the whole wide world is being unable to be happy for a friend who enjoys something you dislike. Like if you can't shut up for five seconds when your friend is talking about a thing they like. Why is your misery more important than your friend's happiness.

Well, good thing we didn’t silo off a bunch of important game knowledge in individual discords instead of forums or wikis or gamefaqs for some reason

Watch as screens inside controllers becomes a new trend, proving once again that the Dreamcast was ahead of the curve on everything.
New video! Anbernic has released a new controller with some pretty standard PC-friendly features, and a heart rate monitor for some reason. youtu.be/mYmLE8lJ8AU

While reporting this, I had something happen that's never happened. A comms rep for one of the co's disputed my reporting and said what I was telling them was untrue because it was not in Grok, xAI's chatbot.

I was looking directly at the files. And this person was using AI to challenge the truth.
Epstein had many known connections to Silicon Valley CEOs, but less known was how he made money from those relationships.

We did a deep dive into how he got dealflow in Silicon Valley, giving him shots to invest in Coinbase, Palantir, SpaceX and other companies.

You have helped me raise $404. Thank you so much. If we could keep sharing this, it would mean a lot to me. ❤️
I am making a new post since the original one had the wrong amount on it for some reason. I figured I should update that my insurance will not cover my roof replacement, unfortunately. It only covers things like disasters and not wear n tear. Please continue to share if you can.

Art advice you can use right now:

Fuck AI & Pinterest. Trace your own hands. Make your own poses. Combine clashing colours. Photobash.

Use 3D references. Use your own work. Be inspired by others.

Let go of the illusion that relying on tools is cheating.

Be free, be creative. There are no rules

"microtransactions in games started by cabal of pedophile elites for the purpose of indoctrinating kids into an economy"

Ok. Well, we all knew it was evil somehow but I really didn't expect Epstein to be responsible for why video games are bad now. That's just not what I would've thought.

In Super Mario 3D Land, the welcome screen that is displayed when starting the game for the first time appears to be much less enthusiastic about the game in the European version compared to the US version.
