I mean there's a lot of very dumb politicians and parties out there. But the UK scene surely must take the cake. Alright, nazi parties hiring an alibi poc to pseudo pretend not being racist, there's a sick but understandable logic. But a black female top politician hiring a neo-nazi as adviser?

One presumably ruSSian naZi drone rammed a cargo plane on a German Airport. Another one with explosives was found on the ground near another cargo plane. Remind me again what the threshold for being attacked is?

So let me get this straight. Today's outstanding AI news is 1.) Cryptobros got robbed because AI failed to spot a security hole 2.) "rogue" AI has disguised itself as multiple humans to insert malware into open source code. No need to worry then.

If AI were to disappear tomorrow I could stop listening to/ reading complaints that people aren't able to use the Lex because of AI scrapers triggering the defence mechanisms. And a couple of annoying symbols would disappear from programs and apps I have to use. Wow, what a tragedy that would be.

Do try to remember that the EHRC guidance only affects service providers and not employment, so if you work somewhere where there are toilets or changing rooms for employees that aren’t open to the public then your employers are wrong if they try to stop you from using facilities for your gender

"What if all the Ai is gone tomorrow? How would everyone survive without it?" is sort of like asking "what if herpes suddenly stopped existing?"
My answer is LOL ROFL (dickbrain) The terminally AI-pilled can't even *imagine* some people have *never* asked stochastic parrots to cheat at their job for them.
this is sociologically interesting. people who haven't acquired skills through education or experience now think they're *indispensible* compared to those who have.

Not going to do a rundown of all my TFN purchases but the coolest one was definitely this custom Space Marine Seaspray I picked up from @toyfu332.bsky.social They didn't know who had donated it or made it, so if it was you, please let me know! I'd love to know his story!

Bluesky is a "liberal bubble" because fascist chuds can't get traction without algorithmic assistance and because people here trained themselves to block "debate me" trybois the instant they roll up
The Verge@theverge.com · 2d agoBluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."

My three-year-old was watching CNN when he turned to me gravely and asked “Daddy, why is the nice orange man firing the nice wine lady?” And when I told him “Because she became too woke to protect the reflecting pools,” he started crying.
Not gonna lie, I remain delighted that Bluesky management hates that the platform was immediately co-opted by artists and queers.
