OWcisM. 45 years in IT, the last half of them sober.

Darwin is about to have his way with us. Good luck.

I love AI. ChatGPT is my favorite lunchtime companion. Of course, I use Grok for all of the important stuff, but I do want to try DeepAI.

This is a test. This is only a test. Do not adjust your set. Regular programming will resume shortly.
There's a massive anti-AI bot network that triggers any time there's a post with slight positive sentiment towards AI. If one of those bots attaches to your post, you're hosed.

It sucks and it makes any sort of normal, substantive AI discourse nearly impossible to exist here.
Deleted a post that was going viral and bringing an undesirable amount of attention from anonymous accounts. But, I'm going to be honest, the toxic folks here have won. So much of the usage of the site is about avoiding their attention. I'll just use this site to get book recs going forward

Not sure what's weird about it. Follow the money. It isn't like we haven't seen people fold under corporate pressure before, and Late Night isn't exactly swimming in viewers.

The GOP will hold the Senate next year, and Trump will complete his term, by the end of which, our judicial system will be as corrupt as the other two branches have become.

Until all of us go down to D.C. and get in their faces, nothing will change.

It seems like it was decades ago that Nancy Pelosi tanked Build Back Better by sending the infrastructure bill to Joe Manchin first, which resulted in Democrats losing Congress, and then (after liberals appointed the nominee to avoid a progressive challenge), they lost to Trump.

After 72 years, I just realized that I've been a lifelong pessimist, and that all of those optimists who have endlessly and monotonously pleaded that I shouldn't be so pessimistic were more wrong than any human could possibly be.

Anyone who lets a 13yo boy read Robert A. Heinlein is responsible for all of the decades of carnage that follow.

I plan to dance on Trump's grave after his murder or his colon bursts, whichever kills him first. But I'd like for him to know that's what I plan to do while he's still alive.

I'm hoping a million people with similar feelings will join me on the National Mall. We can dance around his headstone.

It didn't work. Reality interfered.
I’m going to try brainwashing myself. I’m going to start believing that things will get better. They will get better, eventually. I just don’t know when. It could be tomorrow. I just have to keep doing what I can, even f it isn’t much at all. I’ll help a friend. That’s a pretty good start.

Young Republican private texts are filled with deranged racism, sexism, and a fetish for violence, yes, but do you know where else you can find people on the right talking like that?

X. Reddit. TikTok. YouTube. Pods. Blogs.

This is just who they are, there's no f'ing revelation about it.

Just spoke with my CDC sources.

They said RFK Jr. has instructed officials in California to hide tuberculosis cases after seven people tested positive.

He’s doing the same with bird flu and other emerging infectious diseases.

Before a virus spreads, concealment spreads first.

The government will need to prove not only that Comey authorized McCabe to leak, but that he had criminal intent to lie about it. There's a reason no career lawyer signed it.

I have gotten around to reading the Comey thing. It might be the most unprofessional indictment I've ever seen.

Breaking news: President Trump announces he is sending troops to Portland, Oregon, and to immigration detention facilities around the country, authorizing “Full Force, if necessary."
Trump deploys troops to Portland, authorizing ‘full force’ if necessary
The action escalates a campaign to use the U.S. military against Americans that has little modern precedent.
