Gather round good folk, for a scholarly delight,
A footnote in the margins that’s kept some up all night,
A half-height inconsistency in tales both old and true
Why Tooks live long
And stranger still
What Gandalf loves to do

A splash of lime to stave off the scurvy
The President is openly threatening genocide. A crime against humanity. He must be removed from office.
The 25th Amendment must be invoked. If not, Congress has to do our damn job. Speaker Johnson, call us into session. War powers & impeachment. Remove this man from office.
Coincidentally some friends and I spontaneously decided to locate the _smallest_ game each of us has in their Steam/{other game store} library. Mine was 9.22 MB.
"It’s a bright spot on the moon,” CSA astronaut Jeremy Hansen said, his voice breaking up, “and we would like to call it Carroll.”

why saying that AI is incredible followed by a series of non-loading comments because the vibe-coded site is fucking broken
I don't think I could make a joke better than this

The calculus seems to have been "OpenClaw is going viral, we need to allow this otherwise they'll use someone else's model!"
....and then no further plan.

gonna find out really quick how many people care enough about this wasteful bullshit to actually pay the API rates vs. burning $3k-$5k in tokens for $200
I think the reason AI propagandists are so flustered by the fact that no real writer wants to use their idiotic tools is that they themselves don't enjoy writing. They see it as a boring arduous chore to be avoided, while real writers actually enjoy writing and actually care about the quality of it.
Why would I use "AI," I actually know how to fucking write
ANTHROPIC IS USING AI TO FUCK UP OUR CLAIMS ABOUT THE USE OF AI????
okay I feel like we should sue again for this
You might ask Mint dental over on Morrison. Been a bit since we have been but they were running purifiers. Unsure of mask policy.
Fuck ICE and illegal wars. Impeach Trump. No Kings.

I have a strong tendency to use short, clippy phrases and omit certain words (conjunctions, usually) which carries elements of voice and the statistical slurry machine will absolutely destroy that.
There's even a specialized tool for dice mechanic statistics! (anydice.com)
Grammar tools existed before LLMs!
The thing that keeps getting me is why you'd want a tool that *rewrites* a passage for you rather than *highlights a possible mistake and letting you judge if it's a mistake or not.
The perfect headline does not.....
By embracing slop, big game companies are doing better marketing for indie game devs than we could ever do ourselves.
Thanks guys. You can take one look at my gorgeous temporary programmer art and know my game is made by humans.

A single panel comic of Barret Wallace from FF7 disgustedly gesturing to a screenshot from nvidia’s atrocious DLSS 5 slop showcase, showing a photo of what was once Grace Ashcroft from Resident Evil Requiem standing in a dark foggy street, but now is a generic yassified AI model standing in a flatly lit Instagram environment. Barret’s text box reads “We’re killin’ the planet for THIS shit?”.
I fear we’re gonna get a lot of mileage out of this Barret meme.
kind of seems like the people saying data center energy use is overstated were full of shit
Crypto.com cuts 12% of staff, citing urgent AI 'pivot'.
