Everyone knows data centers use a ton of water.

What hardly anyone knows: they can poison the water that remains.

And in eastern Oregon, Amazon is doing exactly that.

Stop using AI for placeholder assets.
Use sketches. Use lorem ipsum. Use bright pink materials. Use programmer art for fucks sake, literally anything else.
If your studio is using AI even for temp, even if they think they've covered their tracks, SPEAK UP because people WILL FIND IT

Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store.

If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

Hello network. This is real shit. I’m looking for transgender, nonbinary, or gender nonconforming front and back end web designers for a project to help trans people get housing in NJ. This is a paid opportunity.

A mayoral candidate saying maybe the city should cover the cost of bus rides gets the full socialism panic treatment before he even tries it.

A sitting president taking billions of dollars worth of shares in private companies gets “I must say, a tad unusual” after it’s been going for nearly a year.

While baristas are on strike, our job is simple: DON’T SHOP AT STARBUCKS.

They’re striking for fair pay and respect and we’re standing with them.

Show the billionaires our solidarity is stronger than their greed.

Begging people to start paying attention so you can tell what these edited pics look like, because I've seen a shit-ton of them over the past few days. Run a reverse image search if you're not sure, it will find similar photos so you can check if the one you're about to post is original or edited.
is there a new photo AI out there all of a sudden or is it remini 2.0? idk why but suddenly there's been a flood of ultra-glossy bangtannies on my TL today

So I talked a bunch of people into going to The Walters December 26th and booked a place to stay overnight so I could visit some friends. And now I think everyone I was planning to go with has cancelled. Should I cancel my trip? Are there other fun things to do for non-holiday-observant people?

We do know who killed JFK. The Warren Commission was an incredibly thorough and good-faith effort to prove and document what had happened, which they did. The conspiracy theories arose in spite of best efforts to avoid them, but there really isn't anything they could have reasonably done better.
My first political memory - exactly 62 years ago right now, a 4-year-old boy trying to understand his mom's tears - is still the biggest event in my lifetime. We still (IMO) don't *really* know who killed JFK, but we know the public's trust was shattered. It's a straight line to today's mess

Eyes on the Prize is an amazing civil rights documentary. The Muhammed Ali episode is very very good.

And it is a masterclass of forcing people to stop dead naming. The -glee- when they got to promote him as Ali, and the recognition that he is a person deserving respect
