The fact that the games industry is so dead-set on disregarding Concept Art as being part of the game it helps make is eternally frustrating to me.

If the slop machine extrudes a design for you that you then force an artist to make "real", that still means there's AI generated content in the game.

It’s funny when people act like using Twitter is some kind of complicated moral issue, like no it’s a site owned by a white supremacist that actively promotes white supremacist content this is as simple as things can possibly be
The richest man on the planet has a pinned tweet that's just straight up white nationalism. I can't say I miss Twitter!

he was a joke candidate till he went full racist in that rant and then suddenly he was the frontrunner
It is revisionist history to say anything other than Trump’s coalition was built on old fashioned American racism.

He opened with “They’re not sending their best,” progressed to “shit hole countries,” and now we have pogroms in our cities.

Some may have held their nose, but they did vote for this.
Felt like I needed to show the president's anti-Somali speech because one day people will tell her it never happened, that these words were never said by the American president.

Primary them all and block anybody who comes with the “at this crucial juncture the most important thing is that we win.” if they believed that they wouldn’t do this and with friends like them nobody needs enemies
Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

raise hell about KOSA folks we cannot afford to put this tool in the trump admin’s hands
The latest patch for the disastrous Online Safety Act? A "nudity blocker" installed on all UK devices.

The OSA was supposed to protect kids online, but was so vaguely defined and unenforceable that the UK keeps inventing new, ever more invasive tools, like "nudity filters" and VPN bans as cover.

I fell for this clickbait, but you shouldn't

It is the dreariest, most predictable first person essay I've read in a long time.

May the ghostly cries and lamentations of every enslaved person who worked there haunt this boutique hotel's owners, managers, and guests unto the last days of their lives.
Birdwood plantation is being rebranded as a “mansion” “rumored to have been constructed by some of Founding Father Thomas Jefferson's own builders” turned into a luxury hotel that can booked for weddings. Smh.

As a reminder: Trump is rewarded for saying the most insanely hateful things if you, like sheep, simply disseminate it for him even on platforms where is largely blocked.

10 years in and he still plays you all like a fiddle.

As we mourn Rob Reiner, don’t skip this: he was, pretty much, personally responsible for overturning California’s Prop 8 banning same sex marriage.

Great story
When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

Part of the Chanukah tradition is to place the light menorah either outside or in a window where outsiders can see it. This is supposed to advertise the miracle of Chanukah. These days, it is also a way of saying, “This is a Jewish home.”

Every year I think about how it is also an act of bravery.

increasingly starting to think that the endgame is to kill consumer computing so end users are driven to use centrally-operated cloud computing farms that these companies have total control over, so AI becomes inescapable

right now AI is irritating but possible to avoid, and we can't have that

I'm not going back to a place that suppresses all my links, allows my misgendering, and stole my blue check for profit.
Elon's little serfs are quite literally begging journalists to come back because every publicly available source of data shows people have fled the platform and young people won't use it.

They are literally begging regular people to come back. Don't do it! It is a website by and for actual Nazis!
