I was a research scientist for machine learning. Now complete automation has turned me into a data scientist. I've spent the rest of my life on movies and comics.

Guess BlueSky still lacks good threads. Think I am gonna start one about Italian comics now that I've decided to read this sleazy stuff I didn't want to read during my youth. Gonna update every time I read some new volume of Satanik!
Props to whoever wrote down the lyrics of Jesus Built My Hotrod in websites like Genius before shitty AI closed captioning.

Lovely.
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...
the internet is now a photocopy of a photocopy of a photocopy of a photocopy and so on

4 times that I hear something en passant from the radio and I wonder in which fever dream was the one who asked AI to imagine a shitty postcore song written by Sting after a coma in which he forgot how to play any instrument.

And then it's just Turnstile.

I've tried to report a guy who has an entire distro of nazi shit bands on Vinted and I got an automated reply in less than 3 seconds that it's all good for them.

Is this the holy grail we've been seeking?
It's 20 years since @seanphillips.bsky.social and I exchanged a sketchbook back and forth in the mail, a drawn &painted call and response. INTERSECTIONS may be out of print but here is a flip through that sketchbook. You can still find the book out there :)

You know what's more boring than people producing slop?

People studying, analysing and writing books about that slop.

This AWS outage promises great things coming for the future of businesses depending on people querying datacenters to adjust the alignment of the bullet points in their powerpoint presentation.

Getting obsessed by this single panel by Richard Sala and how he got lost in lines for this one.

It's a bit appalling that you find every fucking ai slop in HD on youtube but not gwar and cramps videoclips at a watchable resolution. :(

Another shitty sticky sweat-soaked hell summer offered by people who needs a Studio Ghibli avatar of their cat and cannot let go of a low cost flight over a weekend of "relax" spent posting every bullshit on social networks.

Vivendo all'estero, ogni anno devo leggere che la stampa italiana è in crisi, chiudono le edicole, non se legge più signora mia e invece mi tocca scoprire che ancora pubblicano Panorama. Mortacci loro.
Dal ieri La Verità e Panorama distribuiscono in edicola uno dei peggiori romanzi razzisti mai pubblicati: "Il campo dei santi" di Jean Raspail.

Presentato come una "profezia", il libro del 1973 è in realtà uno dei pilastri dell'immaginario apocalittico dell'estrema destra.

Would love to have the confidence of these old ladies that, even seeing you restricting your reactive dog to 10 cms of leash, start closing the gap with you at the same pace they would have to come front kick you on a ufc ring.

Love how Richard Sala left "accidentally" some of his pencils in his scans of The Chuckling Whatsit as if some naughty guy decided to scribble in your book the eyes, cigarette smoke, crotches and breasts.

I saw the best minds of my generation (and earlier) destroyed by madness, preaching about clean code, patterns and uml and now they are sort of "ok" with vibe coding?

wtf dude.

Oh. Just read Alvaro Vitali is gone, and I think it's hard to explain him for the italian cinephile. I just wanna call Marco Giusti and hear him talk all the night now.
