Every piece of reporting I've seen on this is drastically understating the scale. These are from Grok's replies within a single minute. Time-to-reply is degrading because it has such a backlog of NCII/CSAM requests to fulfill. Conservatively I estimate it is producing more than 5000 of these per day

I ate buffet grilled chicken and pasta salad at the same picnic table as David Bowie. It was backstage at the NIN / Bowie tour in 1995. We did not speak

NBC Sports does a terrible job covering the Celtics. Whether it's Eddie House Zoom halftime from his garage, hosts and commentators overwhelmingly white and dumb, or the worst color commentator in the NBA, it really sucks to watch Celtics basketball. Sean Grande and Cedric Maxwell are right there.

For your holiday ambiance, I've made a hypnotic yule log fireplace with ultra slow motion macro footage of flames stretching & warping like liquid as fire reacts with calcium chloride & barium. This is real fire I filmed, not CGI or AI.

10hrs, 4K, crackling sounds, no music, no ads. Happy holidays!

My old friend and former publisher of the Weekly Dig Jeff Lawrence has died. He hired, and fired, me from my first job. I always cared about him over the years even though he sometimes made it very hard to. A fun guy and such a pain in the ass I don't think he would mind me saying.

So many vulnerable people were hurt, harassed and raped by these ghouls and now—I’m worried—it’s gonna become hehe haha lurid internet circus instead of a long overdue moral reckoning. I’m scared of who we all are becoming. That man has brought us ALL low.

Maine has the oldest population of any state and a high rate of disability. Question 1, on the November ballot, figures to make voting (especially by mail) much harder for many, and particularly for older folks and people with disabilities.

A Ballot Measure Targets Mail Voting in Maine - Bolts
Question 1, on the November ballot, would set up a barrage of new restrictions on absentee ballots that would considerably affect older voters and people with disabilities.
