any time you're told to use AI at work, turn your work in about half as fast and pepper it with obvious mistakes. if nobody cares, you have less to do, and if they do, you can tell them you'll never use AI at work again

Look, I'm just gonna tell cishet white people right now--Newsom ain't the one. You got Walz and Pritzker out here. You do not need a Bill Clinton clone wearing Mitt Romney's skin.
California Governor Gavin Newsom said on Thursday that the Democratic Party needed to be “more culturally normal” and “less judgmental.”

it rules to pivot at this point in time from metaverse to ai wearables. it's like if your 8-track tape company finally realized no one was going to want them in the age of the CD, so you changed the business model to only recording nursery rhymes on wax cylinder.
Mark Zuckerberg’s gamble on the ‘Metaverse’ has cost Meta more than $77B

The company now plans to cut spending on it and shift focus to AI wearables instead

Finally modern audiences will get to experience what Star Wars was like before they got an Englishman to dub over Alec Guinness’s New Jersey accent

The hobbyists who helped build this site created technology that has been used to humiliate countless women. Why didn’t governments step in and stop them?

But the memes are somehow still worth it right gang
Gov. @gavinnewsom says he disagrees with Mayor @zohrankmamdani about the need for a wealth tax on billionaires, which he is “adamantly against” - says Dems are a “big tent party” with both views.

I remembered the ep. where they put a fake horn on a dog and called it an alien. Or the one where George Takei took his shirt off and tried to sword-fight everyone. Or the one where they were infested by sentient hairballs, or the one about Holodeck addiction.

I'll watch the show before judging it.
Man, remember when star trek knew it was a show about adults in the navy doing their duty as best they could see how, through a deep sense of devotion to cause and morality

Not gonna lie lads, it’s fucking bleak over here.

Trans people can’t fight this on their own, cis women need to start leaving and boycotting these organisations that exclude trans women.

I go where my trans partner goes, if she can’t go I don’t go. We all have to do this.

Starting in 1994, James Cameron's movies became so huge and expensive that every single time he started a new one, the press wrote pieces speculating on whether they would end his career if they bombed. They were all massive international hits that redefined visual effects.
