It's a good time to appreciate how The Red Green Show, a Canadian program that lasted for 300 episodes across 15 seasons, started when Steve Smith said to a TV studio, "I want enough money to create a show, but not enough money for you to care about what kind of show it is."
Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

Started playing Z.A.T.O. today. It's a free visual novel that's surprisingly lengthy with a great soundtrack. It's been a good read so far even if it is definitely a feel bad kind of story. The protagonist reminds me of Serial Experiments Lain. store.steampowered.com/app/4122860/...

DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.

Had some privileged friends who had fun at Wizarding World in Universal. Without trying to fight, I said I couldn't buy any of HP stuff given what we know about JK now. They tried to dismiss it like, "Well, it's not like we're agreeing with her." I said, "She says your money makes her think you do."

The “google is using your email to train AI” debacle is imo most instructively seen as tracer dye for multiple failures: many people are instinctively skeptical of tech companies now; and many outlets that should have had experts able to cogently weigh in and go “wait a minute” simply don’t anymore.

This is exquisite bullshit from Google because turning it off also disables inbox tabs, so every junk email you would automatically file away in Promotions or Updates now makes your phone buzz.
If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."
There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.
