It's gonna be Bandcamp Friday soon. I encourage you to go and support your favorite artists by buying their music (and also leave a review). On Friday, we all get all of the album revenue. Help artists out in an increasingly artist hostile world.
I hate this fucking shit. Even when they show the menu it's not the whole thing. I have to ask the workers if they even still sell this item or that, it's fucking ridiculous. This isn't a boomer take, this is something very basic and functional that's been made objectively worse for no good reason.
My most 'Boomer Take' is that fast food menu signs that stop showing the menu to show you a commercial are a legit step backwards. I want a milkshake, I want to know what flavours you have, why did it change to a chicken sandwich wallpaper while I was reading it???
They love it so much they couldn't keep themselves from using genAI to do the boring bits!

not just right now, but like we have proof that ie being multilingual, or doing math/solving riddles on the regular significantly lowers the risk of dementia among other things that stuff works the other way 'round as well I'd assume
several studies that go into how fast/severe your brain atrophies even with short term use makes me think a lot of people will be severely fucked in the coming decades
The specific focus in this video on the way these tools get under your skin and train you to depend on them is an aspect I personally find existentially terrifying. youtu.be/TtvICev9sBE?...
"If this is what it takes to get a rom-com greenlit these days, maybe we should just let them die. Death with dignity is surely a better fate for the genre than fascist capitulation." Zero stars for this piece of shit movie. My review of ONE NIGHT ONLY for @ebertvoices.bsky.social
One Night Only review: Pull out from this sex-negative rom-com
If this is what it takes to get a rom-com greenlit these days, maybe we should just let them die.

Will never get over AI chuds calling people against AI "gatekeepers" (or "ableist"!!!).
It is worth noting that the writer of that HWA newsletter telling people to embrace AI, has an AI based coaching app they are selling
There is a lengthy pro-AI screed in the latest HWA newsletter and it is . . . a mood.
I haven't done a video essay in a long time, but I still have a few ideas and continue to accumulate more...
