Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

I paused, out of breath. The Void had taken all my frustrated screaming and absorbed it.
"I'm sorry," I whispered. "You must have heard all this before, countless times."
'only you,' said the Void, 'scream your frustration like you do'
I took a deep breath to resume, then smiled.
"Thanks."

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

Hvorfor lager Oslo kommune "faglige" AI-podcaster egentlig?
Hvorfor, om det på død og liv må formidles av en kunstige stemmer, skal den imitere en samtale mellom to mennesker?

I hate that AI has made me approach cute animal videos with an air of suspicion. I resent having to harden my heart to the possibility of an unlikely friendship between a very large dog and a very small one

A world without trans people has never existed and never will🏳️⚧️🐯
![A Tiger head surrounded by flames coming out of their closed mouth. Their stripes are pink and light blue and their fur is white. These are the colours of the trans flag. The tiger’s eyes are sparkling.
The choice of a tiger is based on a pun. Tora is the Japanese word for tiger. When you read the world trans in Japanese katakana it starts with “tora” to-ra-n-su [ トランス ]
Under the tiger’s head text read: “a world without trans people has never existed and never will.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ockrei52p4jp26e7gl7yih4h/bafkreicvkcqovzfq74rtkociuf3o3sskbcwiqnjjoiayoixe3w5h3epwti@jpeg)

Inni helvete. En ting er at man er villige til å samarbeide med folk som bidrar aktivt til krigsforbrytelser og undertrykking av folkegrupper, det er ille nok i seg selv.
Men jeg er fryktelig redd for hva slags salgspitch de kommer med ovenfor vår naive Digitaliseringsminister.
