I enjoy making and building robots along with other dumb little things. You can find any 3d models I make here for free https://silkburrito27.carrd.co/

"A bunch of people would rather post on Race War Now Dot Swastika rather than Bluesky because you keep making fun of their imaginary computer friend" is a RESOUNDING endorsement for the concept of hostility.

Part of a thread from some bluecheck:
Multiple people I know have told me that they love the idea of Bluesky, and want it to succeed, but have abandoned it for X because the use agentic tools in their work and find them incredibly useful, and feel that any mention of their usage here leads to hate and ridicule.

I wouldn't bring this up if it was just one person, but it was multiple people since the beginning of August who mentioned in passing something to the effect of either "I'd spend more time on Bluesky if people weren't so anti-AI" *or* "As much as I hate to be there all the useful AI talk is on X."

I'm not saying it's anyone's responsibility to praise AI usage. I agree with much of the criticism of the tool. But for many, many people, it is a useful tech (I have talked about the ways I find it extraordinarily useful, only to have people here mock me, insisting my lived experience is a lie).

I am just noting that for all the people here who say that people should get off X and spend more time here, the reason I keep hearing from people in various circles who would *like* to do that, but don't, is the vociferous belief of many here that there are no possible positive uses of AI.

Specifically, every time someone destroys surveillance cameras these days, hundreds and thousand of people flood police social media to say "good, I'm glad your fucking spy camera was smashed." And so far in at least one city (Winona, MN), the police caved to the public pressure.

i think my biggest issue with the swap from social media being mainly picture based to now video is that instead of just focusing on what you're working on you're incentivized to think about social media throughout the whole process, you cant just take some glamour shots of your finished work
