What is PBS Kids doing telling 3rd graders to use Ai to write a poem???

Well this is a rollercoaster… Rooster coaster? Someone must have called fowl play? I’d not be too chicken to try this? Hen-yone else?

It seems Americans are willing to try anything aside from gun control to solve the problem of School Shootings. The fact that this is a product someone thinks is needed is a sign that we are living in the dumbest timeline…

BOOK BIRTHDAY BOOK BIRTHDAY!! Armor of Annwn is OUT NOW!

If anyone uses Stripe to get payments, go to your Settings (Gear icon) > Plans and Fees > Radar (View plan details) > View Plans > Scroll to "More Options" and select "Lite" I want none of the money I earn to go to AI if I can help it.

nice, now Stripe is auto-opting people into a nickel charge per transaction for "AI-enhanced" protection shit they never asked for you can change it back to their free "Lite" version, but the fact that it's opt-out by default is so fucking annoying

I’ve not played a TTRPG for a few years… I could be tempted back by Darksun… That said Hasbro have been acting pretty horribly recently, so I’m a bit torn.

Eff off, how about we target the data centres using more energy than a small country instead of the publishing industry. And the computer is on anyway, AI drafting a shitty email isn’t going to save much power if the computer is on anyway. Feels like this was funded by Amazon and AI companies.

Miyazaki pulls no punches… When a team showed him their AI animation.

Very cool that Shopify’s CEO thinks the poor should have far less of a vote than the rich. Still worth that ad read money, folks?

Are you a Gen X / Xennial / Elder millennial who can’t handle voice notes? What’s app has a hidden feature that makes it transcribe voice notes so you don’t have to listen to them. God I hate voice notes… I get the convenience, but it puts the onus on the recipient to find time to listen.

How do we not have printers that just work in 2026? Annabel had to send something to her publisher, and after 20 minutes of the printer refusing to do anything I ended up photocopying my phone screen to get the shipping label printed…

You can kill a French vampire with a baguette. It's a painstaking process but it works.

Next gen potential murderbot just dropped. Can’t help but think they look like the Wheelers from The Return to Oz, can we not get picnic basket trees instead?

Okay but what if the current system is so broken it needs to be dismantled?

Guys guys guys I just found out @scottishbooktrust.bsky.social has a shop and if you buy things from it, it helps fund their amazing work. And they have those wee room thingies you can put on your bookshelf. I have no bookshelf space and yet I am tempted! shop.scottishbooktrust.com/collections/...

Sadly I’m pretty sure Bibi would have diplomatic immunity, and unless the US government waives his immunity, or declares him personally non grata the worst they can do is issue a traffic ticket, which he isn’t obliged to pay.

Just watched the first episode of Alkallatt+ on Netflix. Genuinely impressed, it’s interesting to see Netflix producing Saudi Satire like this.

My 2 year old son just pointed at a picture of Nyarlothotep and said that he was a very cheeky bear.

I’m still getting these, and I’m not complaining… I will in all likelihood never buy one of these things, but I’m glad they exist…
