Hi all my new followers, it’s been a crazy week
I imagine most of you know me from the ‘other place’
But if not I’m Kara, and I typically post about Star Trek and other fun nerdy stuff
I also make costumes and props and I’m part of a Ghostbusters group that raises money for children’s hospitals

Home Alone could've had a very different ending if it was made more recently.

Imagine if they just subsidized newspapers and magazines the way they’re subsidizing this slop
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

Recently seen a few people claiming that video games have a "massively dominated male audience", some even claiming 98%.
This is laughably ridiculous.
Roughly half of gamers are women.
Women have always been part of the gaming community, and always will be.
Video games are for everyone.

Trump is invading American cities to nominally address crime, and I think the scale of his pardon-sprees should be given more political salience
When this criminal was jailed, the judge told David Gentile and America: ‘This is a warning to would-be fraudsters that seeking to get rich by taking advantage of investors gets you only a one-way ticket to jail.’ I guess not

The adoption of “lethality” as a macho yet evasive way of saying “killing people” has really been a sight to behold
Markwayne Mullin: "The president and the secretary of war have been very clear. They're gonna use lethality against our enemies -- home and abroad."

Tech oligarchs have been scrambling for products to retain dominance since the plateau of the home computer and mobile phone. Today, they're forcing 'AI' garbage on us while pushing for mass surveillance and war products, even if they have to make the wars to service them. We can reject this future.

Listen, Gen AI is garbage. If you use it, you should feel bad.
Trans rights are human rights.
Vaccines are GOOD. They save lives.
Libraries are AWESOME.
Drink your water. Take your meds.
Science is the shit.
The arts are the soul of us.

SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY
Everything in my shop (except the Bajor - Palestine flag pins) is at least 10% off. Most things are 20% off, and a few are 50% off or more!
Also! I found exactly one (1) Bell Riots 2024 pin that I hadn't sold. First one to get it gets it.

This seems like the kind of declaration by a U.S. president that should be mentioned *somewhere* on the front page of CNN or the NY Times, but the fact that it isn't (as of right now) tells us so much both about how this president is covered and the credibility of the U.S. government.
