I call this ick genre of social media posting "Got 'em!", as if online callouts & roasts of fascist hypocrites - who game the attention economy with their posts - is praxis

Honestly, Grok sponsoring a Tron movie is the most anti-Tron thing and just shows how much Ares is straight up corporate tech bro propaganda. It’s very sad. Tron has such potential and never fully gets there. Legacy and Uprising are good but Tron: Identity tbh is the franchise peak.

A sponsorship installation for Musks Grok doing AI bullshit at the Tron Ares premiere.

Sometimes, if you try really really really hard for many many years alone and work yourself into a traumatized perpetual state of exhaustion like scarring from the brain being soaked in cortisol for too long, you might one day get to look back and say "well, shit, that wasn't worth it at all."

My pharmacy replaced their number directory when I call with a voice assistant. What used to take 2 seconds took me 30

boost your user satisfaction and growth with this one weird trick (removing the shit everyone hates that you added for no reason)

r/SaaS
u/soasme
I deleted ALL AI features... and user growth went UP.

Everyone's busy adding Al to everything.
I did the same for indie10k.com but it didn't work.
I removed all of fancy Al stuff - Al coach, Al growth ideas, Al "personalized" advice - everything.
Guess what?
I see more registered users and higher retention.
That actually make me wonder why now i have one page with one button, without all that Al thingy, but it does better?
Here's my question:
Is Al feature actually helping SaaS grow?

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

Lmao is this supposed to be a bad thing?

A tweet from Bari Weiss that says “"It's shaken me to my core," a lieutenant said of Mamdani's unexpected victory in June. "The absolute dread I feel is palpable.
"
Today in @TheFP our @Olivia_Reingold talks to the cops who say they will walk if Zohran Mamdani is elected in November:”

The online cosplay leftists going on about "sheepdogging" is so funny because you actually have to have a real movement already before getting sheepdogged.
It's like someone who's never accomplished anything filing a police report over their stolen trophy collection.

I mean, they just did by printing this article.

Failing to see why this is "news" and not just a blatant promotion of what TPUSA is trying to do. The propaganda is transparent.

You're a doofus. A genuine stooge. A sycophantic smoothbrain announcing both your ignorance and cowardice.
Genuine brainrot to even suggest it's others who don't know what's up. You make me sick.

When "sentient ai" people smugly spam chatgpt-written techspeak slop, keep in mind that the logical conclusion of their entire argument is that if you write "I am sentient" on a piece of paper, it is evidence that the paper is sentient.
