Finally got suckered into an AI video that was high enough quality to fool me for a good ten minutes. The narration was too perfect and it started meandering and using silly language. Complete waste of time because fact checking it would take five times longer than watching it. What is the point?

This is just alarmism. Buildings naturally fluctuate in temperate over time and it's really nothing to worry about.

notably he stole this idea from the slap drones in the Culture books. if you calculate the walking time from Scotland to Texas under the ocean you should be able to work out when Iain Banks' wrathful revenant will make it to him.

Most dystopian thing I have ever seen was waking into a US Target and seeing that all employees have a speaker on their hip with a robot voice that yells at them if they don't work fast enough. "Service required at aisle 3" and then keeps yelling "Why has nobody gone to aisle 3 yet" until they do.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

Target is now requiring its employees to smile more
As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

For Americans: Reuters utterly fucked this up, this election was a landslide for Plaid Cymru, the Welsh nationalist party. Labour collapsed, Reform was barely in the frame, but Reform is popular with English gammon-faced flag-shaggers (not Welsh folks), so that's what the lede has to be.

My theory on AI is that tech bros have convinced themselves that they will be able to digitally upload into one to live forever. They won't, they'll be dead as fucking hammers but a chatbot that vaguely talks and acts like them will live on to fritter away their money.
Wait until it becomes legal.

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV is set to effectively disband Opus Dei in the coming weeks.
This would be the most sweeping internal reform of his pontificate — and a dramatic continuation of Pope Francis’s legacy.

NEW: Pope Leo Set To Break Up Opus Dei
If Pope Leo does indeed approves a plan that effectively dissolves Opus Dei’s structure, it would be the most significant internal action of his short pontificate to date.
