Daaaamn. “AI is the asbestos we're shovelling into the walls of our technological society. Our descendants will spend generations digging it out again, and the longer the bubble goes on without popping, the longer it will take to repair the damage." www.thenerve.news/p/cory-docto...

Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying

It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful. So employees just play along with the fiction to keep their jobs, writes our t...

Why are they so happy?

I know I've said it (more than) a few times now, but the fact that Koholint exists inside that tiny cartridge will never not feel utterly wondrous to me.

The best to do it. 🥲

This has really pissed me off, if you're in the area and can afford it go and give the cafe owner some money to help fund the kids meals. And if he refuses buy yourself a nice coffee and tip him as much as you can. Fuck Reform taking food from kids in need. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Do Not Buy The War Crime N64

There's so many ways to play the N64. You do not need to support Palmer Luckey's little project.

So OpenAI just saying they will buy 40% of the world’s RAM supply and never actually buying it is simply enough to completely derail the hardware market.. OpenAI going bankrupt is not enough. I want Altman in jail for this shit.

Sunday stop in at everyone’s favorite “do what now” video game store

Jurassic Park is one of the most important films of our time as it speaks on the subject of the responsibility that must go hand in hand with technology. Even just the lines "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should" and...

Variation 8, Cathedral Series (flipped), by Suzan Frecon, 2011

"Where's David Platt when you need him?" it's contemporary references like this that prove why we need the BBC

We were spoiled in 2022. The World Cup finals since the first I saw (1990) have mostly been this bad.

I need the video of this, somehow

I'm watching in germany. The German commentators kept quiet for nearly the whole thing until suddenly the shot widened and we just hear with a German accent, "Oh, Miss Piggy"

Please let this be a one off just because it’s in America… this is just not football. I’m sorry, no matter how much you try to force it.

Finally, a Ronaldo shows up at this tournament

I love the idea that the world's most watched sporting event needs more viewers so they're taking ideas from something watched by far fewer people

Team radio from Russell after his Lap 1 crash was unaired by FOM, but it was pretty critical of the team: "I'm out! What the fuck happened with the SOC down the straight? I had no fucking battery down the straight. Guys, unacceptable. Unfucking acceptable for this whole weekend." #F1 #BelgianGP

I very much appreciate Europe's clampdown on web data collection but at the same time holy hell how does everyone live with having to go through a Confirm/Reject All Cookies pop-up on every website all the time???

While this is an incredible work of journalism, ultimately I disagree with their methodology of counting “GOOOOOL GOOOOOOOOOL GOOOOOL” as one call, without ever revealing the longest single “GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL” on record

The Athletic@theathletic.com · 2w ago

The “gooool” of the 2026 World Cup does not belong to Erling Haaland, Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe or Harry Kane. Instead, that honor belongs to Livano Comenencia of Curacao, the tournament’s smallest participant.
