WIP #2 of a new design idea for Lisse, featuring a 64m diameter laser focusing mirror array. Her dark hull provides stealth when moving into position and the large radiator panels can operate at up to 4000 Kelvin to dissipate the enormous heat produced while firing.

In the past, I've collaborated with various chapters of Amnesty International to create resources and give talks in different countries. Today, following their "apology" to JKR for shedding light on transphobic human rights violations in the UK, I publicly distanciate myself from that organization.

Six congressmen bought between $83,000 to $245,000 in SpaceX stock just before its IPO: -Jared Moskowitz -Gil Cisneros -Dan Meuser -John McGuire -William Timmons -John James Five serve on committees whose work impacts SpaceX's business. We must ban members of Congress from trading stock.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

The pattern of violence by ICE continues. Our immigrant communities are being targeted and violently abducted,it’s hard not to see so many parallels to Nazi Germany including the concentration camps Credits: @thesidewalkschool2

ICE has once again murdered one of our neighbors, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. ICE claimed that he “weaponized his vehicle,” which is the exact same lie ICE told about Renee Nicole Good, & have refused to release the bodycam footage. We must abolish & prosecute ICE. We must destroy the American Gestapo.

ICE fatally shot Lorenzo Salgado Araujo during a Houston enforcement operation. His family says he was a hardworking father on his way to work. This is a deadly pattern at DHS: no transparency, no oversight, no accountability. We demand an independent investigation.

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I. I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

congratulations to the astronauts who get credit for a moon mission using rocket development work by trans women who had to quit their job and flee the state of florida and can’t celebrate this win with their coworkers

> How did you use AI in your game? um i didn't > Please be honest, we won't judge. We just need to know so you can submit it to the event ;) i didn't use ai at all though i just wrote code and made art > We're sorry but your game project cannot be submitted. Please enjoy the event anyway <3

As of January 25 1950 federal minimum wage was 75¢ (per dol.gov), so it's enjoyed a 10x increase as well... if you skip that second step and don't adjust for inflation. With inflation it's... $10.43, i.e. it has grown by (7.25/10.43)-1= negative 30.5%. Stay mad folx 👍

Since 1950, the US has nearly exactly multiplied its GDP by x100. In inflation-adjusted dollars however, it is closer to a 10x increase. www.multpl.com/us-gdp-infla... (the exact figures are 106x and 9.4x).

The job market is so fucked beyond words I can express :/ Every job listing is either fake stuff you can’t actually apply to or the literally 4000 dataannotation slop listings, there’s literally no way to get a job anymore besides going to somewhere irl and begging them for one. Losing my mind

So glad I updated my app and can now enjoy ten image carousels... and also everything being slower, the Save Image button being pointlessly buried in a submenu that opens up invisible half the time so I have to blindly guess whether the button actually worked and bumble into the Share button...

I decided to try this myself. I ran like 20 of my drawings, from various stages of my career, through the same AI image detector. It flags them all as digitally edited (I’m a digital artist, so yeah), but not as AI. Except this one. I promise it is not AI. I drew it yesterday. I have witnesses.

Quick PSA: AI Image Detectors TL;DR: Take them with a grain of salt. Recently, I saw a discussion about a couple of artists being outed as prompters, and in one instance an AI detection tool was used. This got me thinking, so I ran my newest drawing through one to see what would happen. Hmmm...

Image depicts an illustration run through an AI image detector three times; once as line art, once with colored added to characters but a while background, and finally with color and background added. The lineart and color versions pass as real, but the final, full piece gets flagged as AI generated.
