I do things. Sometimes I have opinions. Infosec/Horror/TTRPG/Art Art/etc. Master of both Internet Conversation and Block-fu.
I'm eating well in the horror department. The Sinking City 2 came out and is a great Lovecraft riff on the Resident Evil formula with a fun weird world to explore. The Blood Of The Dawn Walker releases tomorrow and the reviews are good so I'm not afraid. And for cozy horror Creature Kitchen.

It starts like this…& it builds. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 “If you set out to design from scratch a tool to facilitate authoritarian rule, it would look exactly like AI. You would cherish it for its ability to destabilise our shared reality & its creation of disinformation on a scale unprecedented in human history.”

Education is at a crossroads, argues the author and academic. Should we embrace new technology in the name of efficiency, or is it time to fight back?

It saddens me to see our Governor is a monster, and that he can't be voted out of office sooner.

It's always odd to me that people who quote 1984 at other people haven't read "Homage To Catalonia" by the same author. If you haven't you should, it's a beautiful book and it lays bare the political beliefs of Orwell and his willingness to die for them.
So much good horror on the horizon.

No where has AI slop made my life worse than in people autogenerating tickets, then updating the status with AI, and it being a general mess and too verbose to decode. I miss when people had to think and type out what they were thinking which has been 100% better than all of this has ever been.
