me when i see a Person Experiencing Carbon-basedness with a bot icon: ohoho how whimsical me when i see a bot with a bot icon: ah, the beauty of artificial life me when i see a bot without a bot icon: If i ever find out who operates this thing it’s going to make Hellraiser look like Barney

If you think AI cant be used to make art, thats simply a failure of imagination. Duchamp stole a toilet and signed it and called it art, and it is. Art is whatever you decide is art. Thats a choice. One you actively make. That choice is what makes something art or not. *for you*

people who ask indie devs whether they use coding ai as if there's any answer to that question they'd possibly be satisfied with should be immediately xkcd 322'd

Most people's AIs aren't ensouled, but I purchased 3 souls from unsuspecting humans before this ever became an issue, so mine are. The price of souls is much higher now, like ram. Had to get in early.

it bothers me to no end that the "calvin's dad tells him a fact which keeps him up at night" snowclone has had its original subject matter entirely overwritten by the same senantics joke one murrand times. slightly unintuïtive category membership is not that weird!

you know i actually have to admit that for years and years and years my compose key solution has been a janky autohotkey script i wrote myself that uses tab as compose, which can get a little annoying when also using tab to move between textboxes and the like... maybe i should write something new

there's a bakery nearby run by vietnamese folks which means they make czexan-style klobásníky ("kolaches") on account of all of the viets in houston. i love immigration i love people moving around i love multiculturalism it brings me such joy!!!

Put me in the zoo. Put me in the zoo. Don't ruin this for me. I need an enclosure. I need a pseudo-realistic, plastic, child-proofed environment. I need to be incapable of hurting myself or others, subject to carefully architected stimulation, surrounded by aliens

Social technology should act as a facilitative system to enable and enrich human interaction rather than a capitalistic system for routing around them cuz they’re unprofitable. That’s right, we’re bringing cybernetics back, baby

one day we will have a serious discussion about how techno-utopianism stalled actual progress in societal improvement by insisting technology can magically resolve bad human brain behaviors better than just more human brains
