Training a parrot to say "help they've turned me into a parrot" is funny until you have an LLM freak over for dinner, and they lose their shit and accuse you of being a witch

Remember that part in Halo 1 where you had to kill Captain Milton Keynes and take his implants, to stop the Flood from learning how to make a city completely out of roundabouts

I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering

The assassination of Charlie Kirk makes we worry we can no longer have peaceful discussions of whether gays should be stoned to death or civil and collegial debates about whether black people are inherently inferior. Our culture will suffer.

"Every Tuesday, my principles dictate that I have a two-hour silent vigil in memory of Adolf Hitler, whose controversial views may have offended some, but he was still a human being," says reporter in a full SS uniform, while refusing to answer questions about Hitler's victims.

Watching Adam Curtis' Shifty. Depressingly accurate. Reminds me of one piece of 80s media he didn't sample.

Having been daily driving Linux on all platforms for the past two months I’ve confirmed Linux is great for regular computer use and dev workflows, but Nvidia can kiss my gooch. I can’t even fucking play World of Goo 2 on a 3080 because of their shitass drivers.

Getting a job in games media seemed almost unattainable when I broke in back in 2005. In the years since, it’s become almost impossible and ultimately inadvisable. I can’t imagine trying to break in today.

Independent is pretty much the only option now. Support your favorite creators directly.
