AI slop is a scourge and no one is immune.
"Runctitiononal features"? "Medical fymblal"? "1 Tol Line storee"? This gets worse the longer you look at it. But it's got to be good, because it was published in Nature Scientific Reports last week: www.nature.com/articles/s41... h/t @asa.tsbalans.se

National Guard are still in DC by the way. I see them every time I’m on U Street. Lincoln Park daily. I counted over a dozen on Barracks Row Saturday night. In response to this ongoing affront to justice and democracy, the Washington Post editorial board has taken a firm stance against hand dryers.

The ESPN is pretty much unusable for checking scores. Random crashes, failure to resume from last score

Lame

This all-male panel is deciding whether South Carolina women can be charged with murder for their pregnancies — and whether birth control and pro-choice websites stay legal.

This a real thing happening today. Don't look away.

Nothing improves, nothing gets better. Just when you think some sort of real change is about to occur, the corporate wing of the Dems steps up and takes back any momentum towards fixing the real problems that face Americans.

This is by design. Billionaires continue to get their way.

Typhoon Haiyan peaked at 195 mph, 884 millibar Category 5-equivalent super typhoon. Based on wind speed, it is one of the strongest tropical cyclones ever recorded and one of the strongest landfalling tropical cyclones on record.

FUN FACT:

In 1982, Buck Martinez threw out 46 per cent (23 of 50) of baserunners that attempted to steal off him.

That was the second highest caught stealing percentage in the American League that season to Angels' catcher Bob Boone.

@chattwjonathan.bsky.social do you know of a way to block images/screenshots that people post from the bad place (Xitter) here? Is there an app or a list for that?

I can dig deeper but I thought you might know of the top of your head.

I don't understand sharing any content from there, over here.

Why do people want to post images from the bad place (Xitter) here?

I don't understand that at all. And these are people I like and respect.

Didn't most of us come here to get away from that garbage site? Why spread it here?
