I use Gemini when I'm bored — and it's better than doomscrolling It became my ultimate distraction

WHAT IF YOU JUST READ A FUCKING BOOK

One of the challenging dynamics about social media is that it is categorically stupid to talk openly about meaningful anti-government organising, but then that leaves a vast space for the doomers to fill up with "why isn't anyone doing anything!?"

My work wants us to use copilot to read jira stories, but if we make a mistake using the output of copilot, or it makes a mistake on our behalf, we get blamed for it. So to make sure we’re doing the right thing, we have to read the original jira story anyway.

I'm still angry that they took the reminder notifications out of windows about daylight savings.

Ah, damnit, after that titanic explosion back in 2020, that city doesn't deserve this.

Working on a q&a lecture for a class today: The story of robots is always a story about slavery. The story of LLMs labeled as AI is a story about class, and which humans pay the cost, including the physical toll on their bodies/minds, and the lack of water and electricity, so data centers can exist.

I remember a journalist saying something around the start of COVID about how they were surprised that it seemed like people tried to memory-hole the 1918 flu epidemic after it happened, and wondering how they could do that.
I wonder if they feel differently now, the same thing has happened again.

It sounds like Bungie took the original Thorn quest from Destiny 1 and made it into a videogame.

Every lengthy write-up on "lessons learned" after someone lets an AI process delete their database or all their emails reads like this to me

Slurs Filled a Chat Created by a Republican Party Official in Florida

Given that LLMs work arguably the best* on JavaScript projects (because there’s so much more of them in the training data), sadly I doubt it.

*not to be confused with “well” given the security flaws constantly showing up

Jacob Gellar has a lot of really insightful content and analysis of a lot of impactful games, the entire channel is filled with really good watches.

lol those douchenozzles developing outlook swapped the leftmost button on meeting notifications for “prepare” which triggers some fucking copilot workflow. It used to just open the meeting request. They cannot fucking help themselves but swap in non deterministic garbage.

(Said company threw out their old climate goals and revised them upwards by 200+% a few years ago when the predictive token business mania took hold)

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

I mean, I’d agree but these were also the twits bragging about sleeping in the office and drinking soylent for every meal.

I know it’s a typo, but the juxtaposition of rein vs reign is hilarious.

incredible scenes where this is apparently a thing that Khameni has been wanting for ages and others on the council were pushing back against because optics but now council's all dead and congratulations on toppling the regime by giving the previous leader exactly what he wanted- a family throne

An unfortunate effect of Concord imploding so badly is it made people online even more excited and hopeful that games they're not interested in crash and burn.

It took very little time after Highguard's first announcement for me to find the way people were talking about it very uncomfortable.

“What if there was a mindful way to melt the planet?”

I swear this is the dumbest timeline

I saw this and at first thought "no, there's no way 'we definitely had alternative leadership in mind for Iran but I blew them up alongside the schoolgirls using AI' is what the White House is actually saying, that's too clueless and evil to be real"

My TikTok feed is full of random apartment buildings, restaurants and other assorted civilian structures that Russia bombed.

🫠 there was a rash of people who ran as Dems and then jumped ship and voted against abortion and those people were doing a much better job of hiding their two-faced nature than this fuckhead is.

I wasn’t aware laid off federal workers were considered to be criminals.

We can see now why they are only going after Valve and not Activision, EA or Polymarket and they added the whole videogames cause violence bit at the end.

Nothing but the same think of the children bullcrap used to push for anti privacy age verification measures, nothing about protecting kids from

Actually, the left is winning the AI debate But it does need to get organized.

I wouldn’t consider it high end, sure, I was mainly drinking it as a replacement for Coke Zero when I gave up caffeine.
