Comment on a michael henderson jam, “wide reciever.”
“He lived in my hood in Detroit. Belle Isle was bumpin’ all night in summer 80’s nights with this blasted from car stereos, everybody dancin’ in the street, another Deteoit funky as hell jam.”

Overheard: “Ooooh you can hear our food sizzling!”

I don’t want to break the bad news that what they’re hearing is the employee hand wash sink

This is cool after the war on everything called “porn” by platforms and payment processors. A machine that stole all your words can generate and sell “erotica” but you can’t haaa

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves. One for practice and the other one is the "main" grave.

small bear, fuzz pedal

Photo of a guitar pedal covered in black needle felted wool on a wooden stool. It is in the shape of a bear lying on its belly. Two leds are illuminated on its back.
I’m still working on it, needs a tail, maybe eyes, and some more all-around poking and prodding.

Machine Music @machinemusic.bsky.social · 2d

Album of the Month - September
Artist: Abraham
Album: IDSUNGWÜSSÄ

You're surprised, I'm surprised, but here it is. One of the most interesting, original, and honestly unsettling post-metal-eque albums of recent memory. Potent, weird, and entrancing.

A woman looks at Alex as if she's trying to discern something about her. The woman points her finger at Alex and says "Primus Fan..." Alex looks self-aware. Then she lowers her head and sheepishly confesses "...yeah."

Sorry, not sorry, neighbors.
