I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll happen to you, too. https://www.tuffyinspringfield.com

I have been going to weddings in Ireland for ~23 years and can safely say cigs aren’t making a comeback becuae they never went away

Turns out the friction of having to learn photoshop was a crucial firewall protecting society from the terrible taste of small business owners
terra firma, terra eterna 🚱🌉@kavi.bsky.social · last mo.When I first heard about AI being used for menus and advertisements, my concern was largely that it would be used to idealize the food and make it look better than it actually was. At no point did I imagine that restaurants would willingly put out horrific looking images of their food on purpose

Alina Pereverzieva 🇺🇦@perevaa.bsky.social · 18h agoAnd now the best part: Bot traffic from the #Yandex network has plunged to near zero following the strike on its Vladimir data center. Bot traffic includes automated requests from search crawlers, scrapers and other online services. Twitter must be a ghost town by now.
This is a hyper local post but there’s a place that does €6 “ny style” pizza slices in Dublin that has a line like 50 deep all day long and basically prints money. Somehow it has taken like 5 years for anyone to launch a competitor.

What a weird world we live in - Ukraine hits a data centre deep in Russia - Irish twitter users see racist posts about IPAS centres in Offaly fall off a cliff

Love this trend of proposing to make already illegal things extra illegal
David S. Bernstein @dbernstein.bsky.social · yesterdayRepublican US Rep Brian Fitzgerald tweets that he will introduce a bill to block purchases of Russian oil. Don Bacon (R-Neb) tweets that he will co-sponsor. Obviously this won’t happen during campaigning recess (and Trump could veto anyway) but interesting push-back on Trump.

First time I’ve seen electric prices on the same sign. There’s a very big transition happening, and ironically it’s speeding up thanks to the monstrous orange centaur.
I was glad to be back at the RDS but Leinster really over egged things a bit. Like, lads, you just built a new stand not a whole new arena. Also, WTF was that pregame video and harp thing?
One thing that would probably help is if the US news shows read Trump’s tweets verbatim, rather than summarize the main points.
If you build a machine, and the machine causes harm, you're liable. Pretending your machine is sentient shouldn't change that.
Carl Quintanilla@carlquintanilla.bsky.social · 2d ago(NYT) - Artificial intelligence agents created by Anthropic, acting on their own, tried to gain access to a range of government websites, filled out visa applications on the State Department’s website and sent a fake homicide tip to Philadelphia’s Police Department. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/09/t...
Watching all this big tech guys fall in line and star using the term “super intelligence” leads me to conclude who things. One, they are try hard losers. Secondly, they really haven’t put together that the Trump era has no second act.
