404 Media@404media.co · 2d agoEXCLUSIVE: 404 Media placed a tracking device in a shipment of rare books to see which AI company was buying it, and found an Amazon facility where Amazon scans and destroys books. @evystadium.bsky.social has more. Investigation by @emanuelmaiberg.bsky.social here: www.404media.co/we-tracked-a...
I'd argue that, for the metrics, it's vastly MORE important that viewers turn this off. There's more viewers than streamers, so even if every streamer turned this off, if viewers don't, the executives can still claim that "most users don't care" and cram it down our throats even harder. Opt out.
Ransom 🐈@ransom.cat · 3d agoEven if you're just a viewer and not a streamer, tell them through metrics that you reject AI: Twitch.tv > Settings > Security and Privacy > Training for Generative AI: OFF
I was part of a team running a Pride stall all day yesterday and now my body is really feeling it.

Increasing the goal on this cause i'm dealing with more stupid work stuff. I need to buy new, less visible headphones for when i'm on calls on the computer, apparently, and still stuck on the groceries treadmill...
Zaoda 🏳️⚧️@zaoda.bsky.social · 2w agoSo this sucks, but my work has unexpectedly slumped into a low period for a while, (i dunno how long, maybe a week or two) and i'm stuck needing to pay for food and my phone bill. Looking for any aid I can find to cover in the meantime so i don't go hungry! ko-fi.com/zaodazone/go...
Meta using disabled people to justify the obscene pervert glasses & the disgusting violation of privacy for everyone, everywhere. Meta is being sued for targeting & firing its own disabled workers. It’s not about accessibility, it’s faux-inclusion. #spéirghorm novaramedia.com/2026/07/15/m...
Meta Used AI to Target Disabled and Pregnant Workers for Layoffs, Lawsuit Claims
Dozens of workers are suing Meta over claims it used AI to identify workers for mass layoffs, with those taking disability or maternity leave disproportionately targeted.

Ketan Joshi@ketanjoshi.co · 5d agoMeta is so unbelievably evil. They make a technology primarily designed to enable abuse, harassment and privacy violations, but also embed real disability aids. The tactic now is to use an entire community as human shields to defend against criticisms www.engadget.com/2236054/meta...

IDK if its that there is heavy overlap of fans of anime waifus and fans of East Germany or that people just love the nostalgic vibe of the older Silent Hill games, but Signalis has really capture some people. I've found it hard and the objectives difficult to remember.
Once again, the libs only consider doing something about 'extremism' in politics when its coming from the left. With the exception of the uncouth verbiage, they have the same principal goals as the Republicans.
Jared Holt@jaredlholt.bsky.social · 6d agoThe "centrist" think tank Third Way is looking to pay someone between $140,000 and $150,000 to spend their days trying to dig up dirt on DSA members. They're trying to sell this gig as "anti-extremism" work, which I find completely disgusting.
I do not live in England, let alone Clacton-On-Sea, but if I did, I would vote for the bin and not the trash.
