Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal.

The main way in which AI has negatively impacted games industry jobs is not through actual automation of those jobs or even untrue claims about automation. It's by making capital unavailable because it's tied up in AI investments while also destroying the consumer base for video game hardware.

This is fucking terrifying

"Cognitive surrender" is a fascinating concept to think about the impact of AI as it exists under reactionary tech Preventing people from thinking for themselves and imagining different worlds is a godsend for authoritarians thenextweb.com/news/wharton...

the food safety stuff is another reminder that a large, huge, gigantic part of being a republican is going “lmao why are we spending money to prevent horrifying disasters from happening if they never happen 🤪”

shoutout the chucklefuck pundit who insisted once that “environmental racism” was a nonsense term

Elon Musk's xAI has installed more than double the number of gas turbines than it has publicly acknowledged to power its Colossus 2 data center project, without federal permits, and the pollution is hitting predominantly Black neighborhoods the hardest reut.rs/4bIghEm

Guy on the radio earlier saying we should all save our shower water and use that to flush the toilet. Around 60 companies are responsible for 80% of all global carbon emissions; telling us as individuals to do something without addressing that is just gaslighting and guilt tripping.

Update #1

Ownership quietly became renting.

Prologue (1/4)

I know Calvin’s dad is already having a moment, but every terrible “outsource precious and fleeting moments with your children to tech so that you can spend more time on your work” pitch makes me think of that one strip I never really cared about as a kid, but care a lot about as an adult.

“The feature uses a combination of bedtime stories, relaxing sounds, and guided meditations along with scheduling and customization options accessible only to adults.”

This might be one of the most insane scandals in game history When Pokemon Go players scan PokeStops, theyve been unknowingly building a detailed visual model of the world which is being sold to a military contractor to build a no-GPS positioning for the new generation of unmanned killing machines

Shanna and Keine, two minor villains who'll show up in my upcoming webcomic. They'll have like maybe five pages of screentime if I'm being honest lmao. Either way, still proud of this one

Art of the main character for my webcomic, VoltikKa. Will be posting pages on this account soon, as well as a link to the site I'll be posting it on regularly so stay tuned!

Hey so I know I haven't used this account in a while but if I suddenly started paitigm my art here you guys would repost it and make it popular enough to have me become a multimillionaire, right? Just wanting to make sure.

When the world gets you down, just remember the wonderful variety of dumplings out there...

Andy Merrill (Brak) is an Amazon delivery driver. Carey Means (Frylock) got CHF from/exacerbated by COVID & was recently working as a restaurant dishwasher. C. Martin Croker (Zorak) died of sepsis from an infected tooth he couldn't afford to get treated. Capitalism destroys both art & artist.

Saw this on FB. If you’ve ever enjoyed Aqua Teen, please help if you can. Someone who’s such an integral part of one of Adult Swim’s most beloved shows deserves much better than this.

what we're seeing isn't just the rise of youtubers, the dominance of horror, or some indie groundswell, it's because hollywood's 20 year reliance on franchises no one under 40 gives a shit about has finally come home to roost

'The Amazing Digital Circus' is headed for a milestone opening weekend. After generating more than $6m in Thursday previews, the indie phenomenon is tracking toward a debut that could reshape expectations for creator-driven animated films in theaters. www.cartoonbrew.com/box-office-r...

piracy is a morally correct choice in a world where prices increase in inverse relativity to job prospects. you deserve access to culture no matter what side of the poverty line you're on. buy a used video game console and jailbreak it, learn to torrent, install soulseek. art is for everyone

it’s absurd that NYT forced him to delete these skeets, which … convey the factual information that Zohran Mamdani is, in fact, a man of South Asian descent who was born and raised in Africa, and that the pseudonymous source of the hacked material is a white supremacist eugenicist.

I deleted several posts about a Times story because they violated Times social media standards.

Discomfort is not harm. Internalize that. Discomfort is not harm, and if you're made uncomfortable by the work of a total stranger who does not know you exist, you can just process on your own and move on. You do not need to make it anyone's "fault" and no one needs to be "held accountable" for it.

If you dislike something or it makes you uncomfortable, that’s okay! But you don’t need to let the creator know. You don’t need to let anyone know, honestly. You can just ignore it and move on with your life. Fandom is about enjoying the things you like, not bashing the things you hate.
