Ok but I don't want scarce community resources like electricity and water to go to data centers. I want them to go to human beings (electricity, water) and pronghorn antelope and purple sage and elk and basin wildrye and even wolves (water). Tech isn't sharing resources, it just takes.

Starting to see "they don't deserve good faith" reactions to this and the problem I have with that is we have examples of actual good faith negotiations that landed tens of millions of investment into local communities and, in at least one instance, residents responded by voting everyone out.

The narrativising of this is kind of maddening. OpenAI's model didn't "break free and hack HuggingFace." Meta's model didn't "break free and hack another company." Tech companies are blatantly doing illegal acts and saying their AI did it on it's own as a promotional stunt. That's it.

It keeps happening... It'd be great if these companies could spend a little bit more time on network security and a little less time vibe coding.

all the attention in the world does not matter if it is the wrong kind of attention. so I'm pretty annoying about my opinions... I think trans men deserve better and I dont want to be around people who are scared of darkships. I dont want to draw corporate mascots. I dont want to be flirted with

i know votes are still being counted but the more i look at this michigan senate map the more it becomes clear that it kind of looks like a mitten

The most revealing thing about the trans sports debate is that most people on side of trans athletes would change their position if the scientific evidence pointed the other way. I don’t think trans athletes would want to compete if it was unfair. But no evidence can convince the anti-trans side.

no lies detected

Just had an establishment liberal try to insist that voting for John McCain or Reagan was fine but voting for Trump is much worse. Establishment liberals don’t actually oppose Trump based on policy, it’s all vibes. They will happily vote for people with identical policies to Trump if they’re polite

And Reagan was laughing about deaths from AIDS, and Nixon got thousands of Americans killed in Vietnam just to win the presidency, among many, MANY other crimes by both of those monsters. The Republican party has been rotten for decades, and Dems seem hellbent on ignoring that.

why is it always like this

nuance is when we discuss if vaccines should be straightup mandatory or if people can chose between vaccination and staying out of places where their unvaxed status threatens the health of others. nuance is not spreading lies about how vaccines work and who is at risk from covid

Food, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.

chat can anyone verify that every single Flock camera has about 2-3 Ibs of copper and about 1-2 grams of gold

I also turned out better because I was terminally online at an early age I don’t think this is universally true but it was for me

this isn't very popular to say, but for me personally, it was good that i had unrestricted internet access when i was a minor. i was aware of what i was doing and enjoyed it. i don't look back on it and go "well that was a mistake", i look back on it and wish i could do it for the first time again

Just got reminded of this very old fakemon I made in 2021 hh/

i think, now, more than ever its really important to interact with people who like your art and vice versa, and cultivate more community and trust among artists and commissioners and followers in general. its not a perfect system by any means but i think building trust between everyone will help

Fuzzikayu@fuzzikayu.bsky.social · yesterday

This is what people mean by AI is theft. Someone I know later found out an artist (16k followers) they got a commision from uses AI and now they don't have funds to commish me or another artist they like. Not only does the slop machine steal art, these scammers directly steal work from real artists
