Hey remember when Nanowrimo said "sure why not" to allowing AI slop in their process and then immediately died after 20 years of operation oh, no reason, was just thinkin' about it

A really funny complaint about the Zohran discount grocery store idea is that non-poor people could use it when there’s a grocery store half a mile from my grocery store that has everything cost 20% more that rich people go to because they don’t want to shop with normal people.
Daaaamn. “AI is the asbestos we're shovelling into the walls of our technological society. Our descendants will spend generations digging it out again, and the longer the bubble goes on without popping, the longer it will take to repair the damage." www.thenerve.news/p/cory-docto...
Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying
It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful. So employees just play along with the fiction to keep their jobs, writes our t...

it’s pretty obvious that a lot of people remember that COVID lockdowns were unpleasant and from there just extrapolate that they were therefore bad policy
This might be a bit niche, but it’s very annoying hearing of organisations saying “well it’s the law to segregate trans people so hands are tied” when most of them respond to accessibility law with “eh who’s gonna catch us?”
The media's takeaway from an El-Sayed win is the same as it would have been from a Stevens win, and the same as it will be if El-Sayed wins the general, or if he loses it: everyone, no matter who they are, needs to take several steps to the right.
If a toilet pedo tries to stop you, scream directly into their eardrums.
Kitbashcat@kitbashcat.bsky.social · 24h agoThe EHRC guidance slipped its way into law by default overnight. Do not self-police and do not let toilet weirdos and changing room weirdos dictate how you go about your life.
More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.
i cannot get over how funny the moderation tag on this is

the mainstream press praising rod liddle in death are not unaware he was a bigoted pedophile, they like him for it. the people in their in-group, at the top of their hierarchy, getting away with crimes signals that the world is in order. it is a moral good, to them. the bigger the crimes the better
99% of mainstream British culture can be sorted into bigotry or twee. Bake Off? Twee. Top Gear? Bigotry. Paddington? Twee. Daytime chat shows? Bigotry. Escape to the Country? Twee. Monty Python? Bigotry. QI? Twee. Laura Kuenssberg? Her name has a respelled slur in it. Mrs Brown's Boys? Both!
Lucy "Chaos Magic" Stairs@hotdog.wine · 3d agoThe BBC closing would make the British media much worse, but only as a speeding up of the pre-existing enshittification of British culture into the twin dead ends of bigotry and tweeness. It is England's state propaganda mouthpiece, trapped inside the obsolete and zombified model of broadcast TV.
We should never forget how the BBC has changed this country by giving endless airtime to Nigel Farage and other rightwing extremists, while shutting out progressive voices.
Nicolas Chinardet@zefrog.eu · 3d agoAnd why is #r4today giving (yet again) such prominence to a hair-brained scheme that has little chance to ever be implemented? A GE is unlikely soon and the threat of Reform winning it is apparently receding. What is the justification for legitimising it?
It's weird when people bristle at the idea of abolishing billionaires. Are you a billionaire? Is your mum one? Why do you care? It would be good to abolish billionaires. More money for public services, less money for them to buy rape islands.
i almost feel bad for ben shapiro, who has been trying to get the other culture war chuds to reverse course on the odyssey & claim it as a conservative movie. "it's about obeying god & honoring traditions!" sorry ben, your pals are fully unable to see past the minorities they do not like, no dice
I think that “don’t say stuff that will get all the transsexuals in trouble” would be reasonable advice but for the fact that anytime one of us becomes the main character is usually for pretty innocuous, unpredictable stuff.
Honestly wild that it’s only today that I learn Ken Jennings tithes to the Mormon church, which I think should’ve been the focus of him supporting transphobic institutions sooner
Had a dream: In a café at a garden centre, the TV was showing what it said would be a documentary about video game production but was actually a violent horror thriller called "The Bitch on the Entire Wall", named after a scene where a character is ground up and sprayed on a wall as red paint
this shit got my blood fully boiled. this is only news if you make your living attacking trans people. it only matters if you're trying to get a trans woman hurt. fuck this dawg i am about to scream.
If i was on a date and they brought up Fauci in any context whatsoever i'd jump from my seat and run like there was an active shooter in the building

there is no good faith anti-trans sports lobby and never has been it’s been a cynical wedge issue from day one for a group of people looking to replace gay marriage as a cultural weapon none of them have ever cared about women, women’s sports, or even sports

"Say what you will about Julius Streicher, but I just love his crossword!" Play your little fuckin puzzles if you want, man, but taking this snide tone with people watching themselves and their loved ones pushed out of public life by these ghouls is a real choice.
