AI generated output is easier to create, but you are probably embarrassing yourself if you present it as a real product.

If you don't believe me, look at what it produces in areas you actually understand and know. Yes, it is that hollow and embarrassing in every other field. You just don't have the expertise to recognize it.

AI created content is also awful. It has learned from the worst of our content and outputs soulless filler. The art looks okayish and the writing fills the space, but for me the bar needs to be higher for content creation. If it is worth doing right, have an expert do it.

AI created content is bad. It's a massive waste of natural resources and it steals from actual content creators.

Happy Independence Day!

I come from a family of immigrants, from Jamestown to Ellis, with a healthy share of hillbillies and river rats. Some fought Nazis within a generation, others chilled in the hills for a century. Seems pretty American to me.

Celebrate what you can. Punch Nazis. No kings.

"Is it treason or stupidity: and does it matter?"

I've been giving this quote some thought lately. I wish I knew where it came from.

I love this, even if every other week is a more realistic goal for my introverted self.

Someone with the name Wisdom in the Dungeon wrote an interesting piece that I would like to lift up--I can't find them on Bluesky to repost it, so here is the link--It's not my work, but I do think a lot of people will enjoy having read it.

I still tell stories of your game based entirely on odd population graphs.

I love that the world has accepted Die Hard as a Christmas Movie unironically. It isn't the holidays till Hans Gruber takes the plunge.

Happy Thanksgiving!

What do you set your heat to in winter? Mine is at 71, I've been told that's warm.
