Tell the world how you feel about AI. Original watercolors, hand-painted and unique. They don't scale. They don't make "economic sense." Whatever artologica.etsy.com

That's a very good point about the cartoon network and other leaks that I feel like is understated in all this Companies keeping all of their production materials so private that not even the people who worked on it can access it is 100% an anti-worker measure

What a weird world we live in - Ukraine hits a data centre deep in Russia - Irish twitter users see racist posts about IPAS centres in Offaly fall off a cliff

And now the best part: Bot traffic from the #Yandex network has plunged to near zero following the strike on its Vladimir data center. Bot traffic includes automated requests from search crawlers, scrapers and other online services. Twitter must be a ghost town by now.

My god. A Virginia data center ran backup diesel generators full blast for 24 hours, creating a giant cloud of toxic smoke that choked its human neighbors. The government claimed there was nothing they could do.

Virginia Data Center Ran Diesel Generators for 24 Hours. Residents Fled Their Homes

Virginia data center diesel generators ran nearly 24 hours during a Code Red alert, leaving neighbors with no regulatory recourse under current state permits.

at this point people getting carjacked are gonna assume it’s ICE

The NYPD just released surveillance video of the ICE shooting (which occurred off camera). Two men in civilian clothes run up to a car with guns drawn. One second later, one man begins smashing the butt of his gun into the driver’s side window. The driver appears to panic and hit the gas.

I'd like to encourage every single historian of Nazi Germany to submit an application to this job.

Well, this should be an interesting job:

Hundreds of protestors march from the site where an ICE agent shot a father in the Bronx on 10/8 to the hospital where he was being held. Defund and abolish ICE. Chinga la migra. 🧵 of photos...

Press conference in the Bronx after the ICE shooting - - @cndelarosa.bsky.social speaking

I made a Philly version earlier this year!

Hey NY, Chicago here. I made you some graphics cause we're all on the same team. Fuck ICE.

Earlier this year I had to tell my kids not to watch any video of Renee Good’s execution. Then I had to tell them to avoid any video of Alex Pretti’s execution. Now I’m going to have to tell them to avoid a federal execution of a man in a wheelchair by firing squad.

"Anthropic told police the false tip was generated as the company tested interactions between its AI model and “randomly selected websites,” according to Gripp."

"Anthropic’s artificial intelligence gave a false homicide tip to Philly police, triggering a meeting with the company: The incident happened on July 18 but was not discovered by the Silicon Valley company until September, authorities say."

Hello, @animalphotorefs.bsky.social lost their job midway through the trip that's supposed to pay for the trip and is now stranded so far away. If you could benefit from animal photos for art references, please consider supporting.

Animal Photo Reference Repository@animalphotorefs.bsky.social · 2d ago

I just found out I’m losing my main source of income because AI search has nerfed the revenue of my main client. I am, also, 2000+ miles from home doing photography I expected to pay for with that income. If you can help, I’m hoping to raise $1000 to help cover trip costs & the drive back west.

If you’re at NYCC, begging you to mask. Someone I know measured the air quality and it is bad. Don’t let appearances be the reason you get and give COVID.

If i was the Magneto of carbon monoxide I could fix this country in a week.

Okay so we have a number now: the Onion is officially 6 months ahead of reality.

From The Archive: DOJ To Bring Back Firing Squad As Means Of Entertainment

The Waco torture and lynching of Jesse Washington in 1916 has stuck with me for years after reading the details. 10,000 people came to watch him be torn to pieces, and burned alive over the course of hours. Exactly 100 years ago.

White people attended public lynchings in droves and had picnics with their children there. I mean, PLEASE.

Hegseth got the job not because of his clown antics on Fox News but because during the first term he made it his personal crusade to get Trump to pardon war criminals who had murdered civilians and desecrated corpses. That’s who he is and it’s what Trump hired him to be.

i am genuinely shocked by the psychotic bloodthirst on display with hegseth

What do you want to bet that this is some sicko like Miller who remembers just enough from AP US history to recall what slave ships looked like and is now gleefully using that as a model

My god.

They're going to keep pushing it until they fully revive lynching. That's the itch they're trying to activate.
