our bluesky safety manager replied with this to a woman venting after ICE kidnapped her husband, and then banned her.

How do we trust this person to have the empathy needed to be in charge of safety on this website? what the fuck?

if we spam the feedback, it might get somewhere

now why are you doing my boy dirty with this headline?
Despite the increasing prevalence of Al tools for visual enhancement and voice synthesis, Aardman steadfastly maintains its signature stop-motion and clay animation techniques. Mr Park reflected on past technological shifts, telling Radio Times: "When Toy Story came out (in 1995), we thought, 'How long have we got?' But we've managed to survive CGI." He noted a "resurgence of interest" in stop-motion, adding, "We use CGI as well, but Al is a whole new thing." He acknowledged the widespread concern, stating, "Obviously a lot of people will be fearing for their jobs." Detailing Aardman's approach, Mr Park explained: "We want to embrace the technology and find in what ways it's going to be useful to us, maybe to do animation a bit quicker, but we're going to be very cautious not to lose our values."

Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 for the first time since records began in 1982. The amazing result of HPV vaccination.

Do you not see our unhoused neighbors as fellow residents worthy of being better supported to also participate in our economy?

I don't like reducing humans to numbers, but if that's what we're doing anyway, many of these folks could also be contributors to our local economic engine w/ a bit of help

This Pluribus ad on a fridge caused a schizophrenic woman named Carol to be hospitalized.
A screenshot of a Reddit post from r/LegalAdviceUK by user Fun-Blueberry-2147. The post describes that the user’s sister, who has schizophrenia, admitted herself to the hospital after believing someone was communicating with her through her smart fridge, which turned out to be an LED screen advertisement. The post explains that she spent two days under monitoring with medication adjustments and that the specific ad she saw included her name, making it especially distressing. The user questions the legality of such targeted or unsettling ads on smart appliances in the UK.

Gnomes (1/2)
In a comic panel, a figure wearing red boots approaches the blue-and-red figure of the Storm Warden, greeting them. 3 cartoon crows introduce themselves as gnomes to the Storm Warden, as they are wearing boots and hats, proving their gnominess. The crows posing as gnomes ask the Storm Warden to share their shag with them, which they will reward using their super amazing and fantastic poorly defined gnome powers. The Storm Warden points out they they are onviously crows.

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far

i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')
comparison between apple's finder icon and mine. apple's is the split blue and white smiley face, mine is two blue and white anime girls making out comparison between discord's icon and mine. mine is like a screaming cat on a blue/purple slimy background comparison between celsys's clip studio paint icon and mine. mine is similar but rotated with some comic styling and pink and blue highlights comparison between mozilla's firefox icon and mine. mine is similar but looks closer to the old firefox icon and brings back the little arm and gives the fox a cute little smiley face

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao
screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

Every other Devopsdays in the world has some seriously stiff competition. Only Wollongong has given me an opportunity to hang out with QUOKKAS
A photo of me sitting on the grass wearing black leggings and a black on black Kubernetes shirt. There is a quokka sitting in my lap and two in front of my knees. A selfie of me with a quokka. It looks like it's smiling. A photo of three quokkas, two eating out of my hand

I imagine most of the people trying to claim that stealing indie ebooks is leftism simply have never had to worry about paying rent or for groceries but sorry, your desire for free luxury goods is outweighed by the material needs of their creators

Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason
daiz.moe/crunchyroll-...

A ton of research and effort went into this one. This is the article to read to get to the bottom of Crunchyroll's subtitle changes!

Replies here will show up as comments (eventually)
Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason | Daiz.moe
With the Fall 2025 anime season, Crunchyroll demonstrates zero respect for anime as a medium as the presentation quality of its subtitles reach an all-time low.

I wasn't expecting THAT.
Screen captures from the Assassin's Creed: Shadows game, showing their upcoming collaboration with attack on titan. The titular character is wearing the same uniform than the characters in attack on titan and looks to be fighting against giant-sized enemies.
