A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

I've now finished watching all of the Interview with the vampire tv series. Damn if that isn't some of the best tv I've seen in a long time.

I reached out to The White House and asked about its use of AI-generated Halo imagery. White House Deputy Press Secretary Kush Desai just responded to me, and it's insane. I've removed the paywall. Please share and subscribe if you can. www.patreon.com/posts/exclus...

Patient, sobbing: But Doctor, I AM Pagliacci! ChatGPT: Apologies. I didn't realise when recommending Pagliacci's epic show to cure your depression that you were the genius himself. I'm impressed! With regards to your initial question, I can recommend seeing the Great Clown Pagliacci.

The UK Online safety bill came into effect, so I need to verify my age on a bunch of sites. Don't trust these companies with my data, so as an expiriment I used a picture on the 5th row of google images when I searched for "UK Drivers License"...and it worked fine. Top Notch work, will really help.

I was going to do a long rant about how truly useless this app that has replaced the NHS weight loss service is, but instead I'll summarise it with this: my target weight is .1kg, the nutritionist it has paired me with wants me to take pictures of my food and I can't tell it I'm allergic to lactose.

my hope is that AI can empower the Dumbest, Least talented slobs i know to replace everything i ever loved with One Million Years of Content

End-to-end encryption is secure because it protects the contents of your communications in transit between the endpoints. If you make one of those endpoints an editor at The Atlantic, no amount of encryption is going to save you from your own stupidity.

mr beast talking about the human lives he has trapped in simultaneous simulations with "cant wait to upload these" is why black mirror can never be as good as it used to be

mr beast tweet reads: I have a pilot living in a $2,500,000 private jet and if he doesn’t leave for 100 days he keeps it, a cop/criminal in a jail and if they don’t leave for 100 days they win $500,000, and someone living in a gym until he loses 100 pounds for $500,000. Can’t wait to upload these 🥰

Projected Government cuts, particularly to PIP. One thing not even seen mentioned by them: it will drive up the number of unpaid carers, remove people from the workforce and place strain on resources because long-term unpaid care is intersectional with poor health and with poverty. And on PIP -

Finally, I decided to try using linux(mint) as my main OS again. So far, the few games I've tried work great. Most other stuff is working well, too. Although in typical linux fashion, I spent nearly 3 hours getting panel icons to display on the correct monitors.

The appeal in my lawsuit against the UK government seeking legal recognition as nonbinary is likely to be heard on the 21st or 22nd of January at the Royal Court of Justice in London. I would like other nonbinary people to come to court to show support for me. Please share.
