Watching THE GREEN KNIGHT again
Hell is being half asleep and hallucinating a slack notification jolting you awake and making you question your sanity.

fuck right off with this too please.
Chomsky has been quite clear that he doesn’t think his relationship with Epstein is anyone else’s business and we can and should draw adverse inferences from that.
sorry he wrote some things you liked; bold thinkers can be monsters too.

Noam Chomsky’s emails to Jeffrey Epstein display none of the fawning chatter found from, say, Larry Summers. And he does not appear to have been co-opted by whatever access Epstein provided.

What the Noam Chomsky–Jeffrey Epstein E-mails Tell Us
Chomsky has often suffered fools, knaves, and criminals too lightly. Epstein was one of them. But that doesn’t mean Chomsky was part of the “Epstein class.”

"RemoveWindowsAI" is a script created by zoicware, available on GitHub, that does exactly what it says: it remove every AI feature in Windows 11. Do what you wish to do with this information. I'm sharing this because some folks are forced to use Win11 at work or other places for any reasons.

Since Polygon is leaving it out of the headline: Epic Games partnered with The Game Awards to put money into the pocket of a bigot who uses her wealth to further the genocide of trans people through lawsuits and legislation. Every 'free' game gives money directly to JKR, and they are complicit.

We forget this at the peril of our work, our connections, our relationships, and our health. Producing non-stop is a long-term disaster.
“One is not unoccupied because one is absorbed. There is visible labor and invisible labor. To contemplate is to labor, to think is to act. Folded arms toil, clasped hands work. A gaze fixed on heaven is a work. […] To meditate on the Shadow is a serious thing.”

Using a brush you didn't make, using paint you didn't make. Using someone else's hands, using someone else's ideas, using someone else's talents, buying someone else's art. You can tell where the line is between creating and not creating, right? Because you have a brain

Look, if you're not an expert you wouldn't know, but this chart is bullshit. They could not possibly measure this as 1. How can you tell for sure? There's no reliable automated way. 2. You're not counting the many sites that are blocking crawlers now.
But there's an even more important reason...

My mistake was assuming that, for an AI to pass as human, AI would have to become smarter and more convincing. Turns out you can get the same result from dumbening the humans

It's also notable that this technique is largely used in professions that are already highly exploitative - voice acting, modelling, music. These are people who already struggle to find good work, and can't easily advocate for better deals. So there's not a lot of negotiation going on.
