Precht insinuiert hier das Bild einer "ursprünglich proletarischen Linken" mit einem "derben und martialischen Jargon" als Gegenstück zur heutigen "akademischen" Linken. Polarisierung, Vereinfachung, historisch kontrafaktisch. Schauen wir in die Arbeiter*innengeschichte. Los geht's 1/

This is sometimes read as "look 'AI' isn't working". But the opposite is true.

_This_ is what "AI" is _for_. Push down labor power, push down wages, make employment more insecure.

For gamers who aren't in game dev, you should know that we are in one of the worst periods in game dev history in terms of industry stability and the reason you're not seeing that play out through products is because the average development window of games is 3-7 years so it hasn't reached you yet.

Sure, we can translate a Steam page for you with @thewarlocs.bsky.social And then ... what, wait... I think we're still as baffeled as the dev team is.

Thank you so much to everyone who has enjoyed the game this past week! We never thought our lil game jam game would take off like this but it's such a treat to see y'all enjoying it.

We're still patching it, so stay tuned for updates.

Der Unsinn von der Zustimmung zu Merz’ Aussagen wird jetzt wirklich überall verbreitet. Es ist nicht nur extrem frustrierend, dass das ZDF das nicht korrigiert, es ist schlicht auch ein Armutszeugnis für die deutsche Medienlandschaft. Unhinterfragt weitergegeben. Man möchte einfach nicht dazulernen.

Vor einem Jahr erschien "Wut und Wertung. Warum wir über Geschmack streiten". Seitdem habe ich mit dem Buch viele schöne Erfahrungen gemacht. Ich denke/hoffe, das Thema ist nach wie vor aktuell.

Zum Anlass des Jubiläums verlose ich zwei signierte Exemplare.

Zum Mitmachen den Post teilen.

I’ve been in many activist spaces and conversations where people try to defend bad politics by claiming they’re common among the working class. Don’t use the working class for your support of reactionary BS. And don’t romanticize the working class as having monolithic or inherently good politics.

I still maintain there's something that really captures the imagination in the way that each image flows logically into the next but none of them add up to anything sensible. It's a waking dream, and if AI bros weren't pretending you can replace Call of Duty with it they'd see they have something
Oh my god some fucking tech dingdong posted this on Twitter with the caption "AI games are going to be amazing" totally seriously, you have to watch it. You have to. In full screen.
