I'm probably gonna go watch it because what the hell, I liked Endgame and would enjoy watching it on the big screen again.

But I'm gonna join the chorus in saying that if any new footage you choose to insert in the rerelease is "critical" to Doomsday, then you need to fix Doomsday.

Anthropic: I wonder what’ll kill us first: lawsuits, regulations or model collapse

Media and universities: AI is here to stay

Maybe try a £500m investment in creators instead?

Just a thought.

£20k each to 25,000 people.

Or £10k to 50,000, I’m not fussy.

All the demeaning ways Home Office expects LGBTQ+ migrants to 'prove' themselves With comments suggesting LGBTQ+ asylum seekers are pretending to be gay, how do you successfully prove your sexuality to the UK Home Office?

In light of the BBC claiming that asylum seekers are falsely claiming to be gay in order to gain asylum, here is an article about the difficulties and humiliations LGBT asylum seekers have experienced trying to prove their identities.

I mean, we all *knew* why they're pushing AI, but it's fun when they just come out and say it.

The BBC undercover investigation into false immigration claims is deeply irresponsible journalism. It does not highlight that exploitation by unregulated advisors occurs because legal aid was cut and the system is insane to navigate.

An AI slop image showing the '12 steps to masterful game directing", including 'Connectiarg' and 'Porkon Cows'

People over on Facebook/YouTube/elsewhere on bluesky/reality have been mocking this, but these are all totally genuine and highly advanced GMing techniques pioneered in obscure corners of indie rpg design in the early 2000s.

I have never heard of "Diplo", and from the picture it looks like someone put 00s Christian and Jeff Jarrett in a blender. Are we sure he's a real person?

@glutelord.bsky.social is essentially giving a PhD dissertation in under two minutes on how modern incel culture is coopting a very narrow and weirdly specific gay sub-culture.
