CEO has decided that "fob" as in "proximity fob" is too close to the slur "FOB" meaning "fresh off boat" which seems like a real bigotry deep cut, so we need to call them "e-keys" now. Even as a dedicated Woke 2 partisan I feel like this one's a bit of a stretch

"I'm switching to a different OS" is normally the "I'm moving to Canada" of being frustrated with Windows, but this time I actually finally made good on it. literally directly because of the aggressive AI shit
it’s not just AI slop: they’re breaking shit constantly now
since the latest update, random things will crash Explorer and my taskbar will restart, Discord kept freezing until I turned off notifications, and trying to scroll in Chrome with some games alt-tabbed is a glitchy mess

Our society is just Homer continuing to beat the shit out of the unconscious Krustyburglar all day every day. There isn't even a Krustyburglar anymore, there's just kind of a red depression in the ground now. Homer is still flailing away

Reached the inflection point where tons of people I know are using generative AI and nobody wants to hear from the curmudgeon about it anymore. You'd think people would refer to my perfect track record on being a curmudgeon about things but no, this time must be different

The world makes a lot more sense if you just apply my "everyone who has never had an overdraft fee simply wants fascism" rubric
Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."

The "Larry Summers complained to Jeffrey Epstein that MeToo went too far" and "Olivia Nuzzi committed crimes on behalf of the fascist she masturbated with while reporting on him" are the same story: American elites have no ideology other than "I should be untouchable." Society is run by empty husks

One reason Robotron 2084 is my favorite arcade game is that it exclusively attracts cartoon characters. There are two regulars I see on it at the arcade, one is like a dapper fedora guy, the other looks like a Neuromancer character

On one hand I'm glad I got to grow up before this entire society decided to gouge out its brain with an icepick. On the other, it's going to fucking suck so bad to get old and sick and dependent on people raised in this cognitive shit swamp
Hey @nature.com, have you got an explanation for how the hell THIS happened? & especially why you accepted a paper with such a bizarre piece of genAI slop in it?!
& more to the point, why we should take you seriously at all going forward?

Did some student teaching and realized "oh society is BROKEN broken; insane respect to the people who do this but not for me," parlayed a life science degree into an IT career by starting at Geek Squad, who'll hire anyone but it comes off like "Damn you were in the fuckin trenches" to tech people
