I’m neither an artist or an AI expert, but I love the concept of this tool. Nightshade is practical offense against what I see as the worst impact of generative AI. Game on.

David Lynch's Lost Dune 2 Script Has Been Found A new report from Wired digs into Lynch's half-finished Dune sequel, and finds a dark, weird tale cut off in its prime.

Whoa.

Jim quietly smiled in response while looking away from the young software engineer, “You know what I did before this? Before coding?”
“No.”
“I was a chemical plant operator. You can’t just restart one of those. The fire, the pressurization, the catalyzation, it has to keep running.” 🧵

Sometimes when I pick up a rock I hesitate before tossing it, reflecting with a sense of grief and wonder that I may be the one and only human that ever holds and appreciates this rock right here

All my paperbacks are dog-eared on the bottom from placemarks, and dog-eared on the top to mark significant passages that thread together the tapestry of the tale or conjure experiences that can only be evoked by exquisite literary art. I always look forward to pulling an old book off the shelf.

A massive nativity scene made of skeletons in someone’s front yard. As posted to the Facebook 12ft Skeleton Group by some guy named Tony Diamond from Ringoes NJ

The people in the Facebook 12ft Skeleton Owners Group are on an unsustainable trajectory of absurdity and I’m 100% here for it
