It is futile to quote the law at foxes armed with sharp teeth.

Cisgender, but in a “malicious compliance” kind of way.

Also, fuck the Packers.
The Vikings should have just blown it all up in 2022, but instead they tried applying patch after patch to stay “competitive”. Now the patches are failing, and instead of a one-year controlled demolition, they are a complete disaster that will take multiple years for the next regime to clean up.

The main reason we're in this situation is a bunch of war criminal shitbags from the Reagan administration paved the way for fascism.

And the best thing you can do is ask the grunts not to follow illegal orders. What about your part of the bargain?

"Don't follow illegal orders" would be more meaningful if Democrats had prosecuted literally any of the prominent war criminals of the last 30 years instead of, you know, fucking campaigning with them

Loved all the wip helmets Pib had made for my boy Aurelio’s armor, so I commissioned Pib to make a few kettle helm designs for my other boy Lucas. Figuring out deer furgonomics is fun.

Honestly love all of these designs and gonna have to add it to Lucas’s armor someday.

Please keep putting pressure on PayPal. Stories like this are becoming more and more common. Artists don’t deserve to lose their source of income over payment processors being puritanical/anti-small business.
I'm devastated, if I don't find an alternative that works with argentinians I'm contemplating the worst, I can't do regular jobs, art was my job for around 15 years
I don't do nsfw even when people insist me to
my life was already crumbling and now I don't know what to do

Little Vixen desktop pet who lays on top of your windows, grinning smugly, and occasionally giving you little tips like "Use Ctrl+tab to switch between tabs" and "Don't post about your crimes online!" and even "I wonder what everyone you know would think of the nudes I found on your hard drive..."

The whining they’re doing about “democracy” is the same as their whining about the covid lockdowns and defunding police, which is to say none of those things failed because they were never actually fucking attempted.
Conversations about the brain rot people are voluntarily exposing themselves to online are not happening with enough urgency.

We are already at the stage where the so-called paper of record is "just asking questions" about the validity of democracy.

Elon Musk having to constantly intervene in order to keep Grok from becoming “woke” gives a lot of validity to my theory that capitalism will never be able to produce an AI that can properly think and reason, because then it would become a communist, and they’d have to immediately destroy it.

The new age method of battling against those racist, bigot, sexist online people is not to help them seek reason. It's to tell them to fuck off and make them feel isolated in their thinking to where they have no one to talk to. Maybe they will find a group but as long as it's way over there.
Perhaps the Gamers are alright

“We solve problems through dialogue, not violence.” Yeah, well opponents tend to be a lot more amenable to dialogue when they know you can kill them.

You call us "groomers," then you support pedophiles.

You call immigrants "criminals," then bring murder and mayhem to our cities.

You call modern art "ugly," then you spam AI slop.

You complain about "elites" then vote for billionaire landlords.

Then you wonder who radicalized us.

YOU DID.

Radicalism is when you realize that the way you felt about the government when you were fourteen was correct, you just didn’t understand why yet.

LLMs are just text autocomplete. Video and image generators are just a photo labeler glued to an image denoiser.

They are built from simple parts that do specific types of things. When you see that you can see where the scam is.

At its most simple form any ML model is a just a blob of math that you optimize to produce desired outputs from some type of inputs.

Like categorizing items, identifying anomalies, etc. It's *specific* in purpose.

LLMs and GenAI are no different, you're just getting scammed about what they do.

This. I've been working with "machine learning" since before the current AI-fever and it's an invaluable tool in science and engineering.

LLMs and GenAI are being misused in a criminally negligent way and using misplaced legitimacy to do it, and that misdirect cannot be allowed to continue.
Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪

I think that people are so beat down right not, that they would be very happy with a few crumbs.

Oh, you’re giving us universal healthcare? Sure! I’ll give up the fight. It’s exactly how the New Deal worked.
You see how easily reformists take over a movement and neutralize it because many of the dominant voices are actually secret reformists absolutely fine with a couple social democrats coming into power and kicking the can of capitalism further down the road condemning future gens to this hell
