only Labour could ban books not because they were subversive, or critical of the government, but because the author might donate her own money to a cause she believes in

presumably we're gonna ban J K Rowling from selling books in the UK as well?

no?

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.

Graphics card advice needed.

My current GPU is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070. Assuming a budget of £500, what would give the most noticeable improvement? It doesn't have to be bleeding-edge, just An Improvement.

Is it worth looking at refurbished GPUs or has crypto mining poisoned that market?

And of course, if Lizza *isn't* lying, then Nuzzi has broken every concievable ethical rule in journalism: fucking subjects, freelancing PR work, betraying sources, running catch and kill ops, all while pretending to be an objective writer. It is an absolutely jaw dropping level of corruption

I've been asked before if I use Generative AI. And my answer is:

"No. Why would I want to undermine the economy, the environment, artistic expression, and human dignity, all at the same time?"

That's what all Gen AI is: a cancer that makes a very few rich people wealthier at the expense of all.

New petition: "Ban Members of Parliament from being residential landlords"

Deadline 25 May 2026, created by Brendan Keenan

#NewPetition
New petition: Ban Members of Parliament from being residential landlords
We ask the Government to introduce legislation preventing sitting MPs from being residential landlords. We believe MPs who profit from rental income are in a conflict of interest when voting on housing, rent, and tenant legislation, which may undermine public trust and fair representation.

The artist behind these has been doing this longer than most of us and we are so lucky to be able to enjoy the breadth of her work. She needs heart surgery and could really use community support atm

It would be an honor to be illustrated by this legendary artist, you could have a chance to do so. Or buy some prints, or check out patreon. Terrie is an artist who got me into the fandom, and I used to have a ton of her prints. She's been struggling to care for her family all year.
It looks like Terrie Smith will need heart surgery for a leaky valve. She could use your support more than ever.

Setting money on fire instead of paying musicians or video producers.
Billboard got access to Suno’s investment pitch deck.

It revealed that Suno has spent $32 million on compute, and $2,000 on training data.

Let that sink in.
