there is no such thing as "age verification." All "age verification" is actually "identity verification." You can coat it in glitter and "privacy-preserving" wrapping paper. But in the end, mandating age verification means mandating surveillance be built into software and hardware. Period.

my head still feels like its beimg stabbed from the inside but I'm gonna try to clean the kitchen today so i can get groceries (thank you mom for aldi giftcard) and maybe eat a little better all i want to do is rot but rotting is not an option

I really cannot state this enough, you cannot be meaningfully anti-ai whilst still playing/supporting fortnite.

I knew that AI Darth Vader shit was gonna come around again eventually, we do not collectively hate Tim Sweeney enough.

first game i wanna get once my finances settle down is cat mail co ive played the demo twice it is so cute

i hate getting sick i hate that i cant do anything when i get a migraine bc moving and being awake is just pain and nausea and nothing helps i literally just have to lay down in dark silence and drink copious amounts of water do not tell me to take a painkiller i will fucking end you

I’m so tired of genAI apologists telling me I only hate it because I don’t understand it. I hate it *because* I understand it, you absolute toenail.

i also want to be extremely clear with my gratitude for everyone and anyone who has donated to my kofi or shared it or even just sent positive energy my way. it has had a huge impact and i dont want to diminish that or ignore it. thank you. life just sucks right now.

pretty sure im not gonna have enough money for bills this month so streams might be on pause while i grind irl which... frankly sucks. but its either grind on delivery driving apps or succumb to despair. so.... yeah. im trying not to freak out and it is not working. wish me luck.

WRT the last QRP, "Let people enjoy things!!" like, bitch let yourself enjoy things! Enjoy something without letting the fact someone hates it ruin your day! The only thing stopping your enjoyment is your own misplaced guilt.

There you have it.

So it seems that #Twitch normal staff are also pissed at the gen AI crap, but big daddy Amazon makes the rules so they don't get a choice. GREAT! infosec.exchange/@0xabad1dea/...

I’m making a browser extension called Safe Badge to let you know which Twitch streamers have disabled Gen AI training. This is an honor system as there’s no way to verify it. But it’s better than nothing. The extension isn’t finished yet but you can give yourself the badge here: safebadge.ori.mx

if i cannot listen to it while driving witbout feeling like im missing 50% of the show bc i cant look at it, sorry but you've left podcastville for talk show town.

stop calling your talk show a podcast. if it relies on visuals, it is no longer a podcast. i will die on this hill.

when i am employed i am going to have so much good art to catch up on... life will be good again. every time i get a patreon email with a post i can't see i cry a little on the inside.... maybe this will finally force me to learn anatomy properly to fill the void...

Hey artists, let's share some helpful things in the community :) 🎨 What's one tip or trick you would give a new artist in your chosen medium? (Or just in general!)

i just did my paint instructor audition!! they said i did well, gave great notes for how i could improve, and i should hear back within a week!!!

Twitch now uses your channel to train generative AI by default. You can opt out of some training here: www.twitch.tv/settings/sec...

No matter how good we get, it's always an issue🖌️

i genuinely cannot imagine how anyone justifies the use of gen AI. like truly cannot. im so glad YOU, famous youtuber, can pay your electric bills and speed up research you cannot even trust. what about the people who's water is being polluted and who's bills are skyrocketing?
