He’s always been a racist dirtbag.

But Erin, now it shops for me and I don’t have to do anything!

What do you mean it buys at higher prices? And only from affiliated stores that would give OpenAI a commission?

I’ve noted a shift in people that I would have considered relatively benign.

They now want heads. Something I think the Silicon Valley dorks and the Nazis in DC haven’t accounted for.

Like would you be stupid enough to let ChatGPT buy stuff for you? They would see that API call and give you the “dumbass price” which would be 50% higher.

Maybe Schumer or Jeffries will do something. Still waiting.

Brother, you should see some of the random website shit that is posted and people unironically share bullshit from hstoday.us like it’s real.

Or my favorite, just a screenshot.

Thanks for posting. Very little news coverage.

•Protein powders full of lead.
•Manosphere promoting protein powders to get swole.
•Brains now stunted in development.

Interesting sequence of events.

Goddamn it Mozilla. Ugh. Well good news is that I've been using Mullvad Browser more and more.

I also suspect there is money changing hands and that is why it was added because you have to grow revenue streams right? 🙄

Mozilla's Firefox adds Perplexity's AI answer engine as a new search option | TechCrunch

The integration offers conversational, cited answers instead of traditional links and follows positive feedback from earlier tests in select markets. Perplexity will expand to mobile soon.

I follow your account for the long term Joey to Joker plot. Each episode is a little closer to the turn.

Yesterday, white nationalist paramilitary forces attacked another Chicago neighborhood with chemical weapons. Families and at least one infant were gassed. This morning, they are kidnapping more immigrants both here and in other metros (D.C., L.A. still being terrorized).

Oh. Well... case closed I guess.

NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:

ICE took a 13-year-old they said had a gun. Local cops say he didn’t.

Now he's detained 500 miles away from his Massachusetts home.
