PSA to Vtubers who are using a business Paypal account for anonymity.
It looks like from Feb 1st by default all of your personal info is displayed on invoices! You also can no longer opt out of showing your real name!
Be careful and don't doxx yourself!

If you use Microsoft 365 and hadn't noticed the price hike yet, check again as it just hit for me today. They really did silently up the price by $30US/yr for the privilege to use their AI BS.
As a reminder, go to Manage subscription > Cancel subscription > pick Microsoft 365 Personal Classic

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references.
Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

Yup. Microsoft automatically switched me to the $99.99/year version with Spicy Autocomplete. You have to go all the way through "cancel subscription" to be presented these options and get the $69.99/year one you actually chose.

This morning's quick reminder: generative AI is a natural resource-guzzling plagiarism machine that exploits creatives to enrich tech bros.
Do not use it to create art or writing.
Do not conduct "fun" experiments with it to show us how awful it is.
There is no ethical use for AI.
Let it die.

Still haven’t seen Wicked, but it does warm my heart to know that there is now an entire other generation that is going to attempt to read, and inevitably decide not to finish, the book it’s based on

Hey All: Google is pulling the "automatically on for anyone over 18" bullshit with Gemini that the Dropbox did for its AI, but I can't afford to ditch Google Drive/Docs/Workspace.
If you have a personal Google Account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off...

The reason A.I. is being shoved down our throats is shareholders want a return on their investment. Every company that integrates this crappy tech into their products knows you don't want it, but they've sunk too much money into it and don't care. Turn it off, don't use it, don't look back.

I went to the Science Museum yesterday and as well as having a ball with my nearly four year old in their amazing child spaces (god love free London museums) I was utterly charmed by this caption.
