Ein schönes nicht-Paywall-Interview mit Harald Lesch zur völlig schwachsinnigen Atom-Debatte von den komplett merkbefreiten Söders und von der Leyens. Gegen die Schmerzen, die solche hirnlosen politischen „Vorschläge“ verursachen, fällt mir ärztlich auch nichts mehr ein! web.de/magazine/pol...
It's not just that a chatbot charges less to tell people to go fuck themselves than a human being - the chatbot itself *means* "go fuck yourself." A chatbot is basically a "go fuck yourself" emoji. Perhaps this is why every AI icon looks like a butthole: velvetshark.com/ai-company-l... 26/

Russia’s full-scale invasion began 4 years ago. It began in winter, and so this winter is the 5th. And, for civilians, the worst. Russia launches missiles and drones at energy infrastructure to force Ukrainians to endure the freezing cold. Here's how you can help snyder.substack.com/p/the-long-u...

Listening to Mexican folk music on Youtube and they're running this horrible ad urging people to self-deport. Fuck you Kristi Noem, and fuck you Google for taking her money.
