Yes. Article over.

Rand Paul just posted this letter from the Coast Guard confirming that 1/4 of the boats they stop carry no contraband. The likelihood that Hegseth & Bradley ordered the murder of innocent civilians is very high.

Immaterial. Those kids know who their teacher is, so do their friends and families, and the rest of the school. The point is that social media is a megaphone.

If she filled the school gym with the whole school and said “these kids are idiots and it’s their parents’ fault” that would be less public.

A teacher taking to social media to shame her students should not be teaching.

We know this. They‘re kids. We don’t drag them out into the public square for almost anything, least of all public flogging for their ignorance. Because they’re all ignorant. They’re kids. Come on

Good catch, t’would be well o’er five score later when Black Sabbath doth unleash the Metal

“During one slightly tense exchange, the president was recorded unzipping his pants shortly before emitting a stream of yellow liquid toward congress.

Speaker Mike Johnson: ‘I didn’t see that, know nothing about it. Anyone have a towel?’

Legal experts: ‘The footage is potentially problematic.’”

GAAAAH! Why would you show us a picture of a severed head?!?!

Born out of historically massive theft, designed specifically to convince and persuade (manipulate) people, burning through obscene amounts of energy, actively lessening the intellectual capacities of its users while driving some to suicide, and largely used to lie, cheat, and steal.

No, it’s bad.

I am mystified that the news organization is treating this as a suicide. How in the world does someone tie himself up then hop into a noose?

“It’s a sad one, Sarge. This poor SOB shot himself 36 times, drove across town, mixed & set cement around his own feet, then jumped in the river.”

“Tragic.”

I think your peanut butter cup went bad

Art: the conscious use of skill and creative imagination especially in the production of aesthetic objects.

AI cannot create art, because it is not conscious, nor does it have imagination.

People who use AI to mimic artworks are as children using dolls to create a family.

Your question is actually, ”Do Spotify listeners care if they consume art rather hideous piles of steaming shit?” The answer seems to be, “Many of them do not, no. Put enough catchup on it, some people will eat anything.”

It’s not progress if it diminishes us all.

It’s just an investment boondoggle.

People who use AI to churn out tracks are not “aspiring musicians.” They are wannabe hacks. I can put on a powdered wig and stand next to a fallen tree, that does not make me George Washington.

The technology was made by and for liars, cheaters, and thieves. No surprise it dovetails with Spotify.

Oh shit that is graphic for a PSA! Good message though. I had a kitchen manager once who almost got his face melted off by a fryer. Another employee dropped her cigarette lighter in there, and he was trying to fish it out. I still remember the “BOOM,” and the shellshocked look on his lucky face
