Dr Kareem Carr @kareem_carr so let me see if i got this AI stuff straight: - you pay to experiment with the models - you pay to automate your business workflows - you pay to validate the outputs of said workflows - you pay to detect any silent downgrades in the model - you pay to update your workflows - you pay to revalidate your workflow outputs - you pay to do it all again every time there's a major model update - you pay 10x all that when they finally stop subsidizing the models and you have to pay the real price - also you don't even get any business advantage out of it because literally anybody can pay for the exact same AI you can i'm no business genius but this sounds like a terrible business model for everybody except the AI companies.

Onion InfoWars product store showing "TURN YOUR GOLD INTO PISS" next to "TURN YOUR PISS INTO GOLD"

Losing my mind over how good this is

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.

We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.

Please stand by for more.

well, he DOES seem to have brought a bag lunch

Does angry starmer also have a -49 net favorability

personally i'd ask him why he hasn't just gone ahead and *yanked offstage by a big comedy vaudeville cane*

"We are not supposed to engage with posts here?" - you're the one complaining I was "coming in to your mentions" by engaging with your post, keep up

"You violated my inner sanctum by replying to a post I made in a thread that wasn't mine"

that light blue $21 million in spending for PACs aligned with Nate Morris paid for the most racist political commercials this state has ever seen

Pointing out again for no particular reason that you generally cannot mitigate a lack of visibility by pricing your game lower

It all seems to assume Mandelson was some sort of outsider, brought in externally for the ambassador role when he was intricately involved with Starmer's Labour. He was arguably running the show, while helping out lobbying clients. We are supposed to ignore all of this.

This is the crux of the matter for me, everyone knew, and also the defense of 'he wasn't told' requires you to forget how linear time works, and the fact that Starmer had already announced the appointment and put Mr Noncington-Friend to work before they had time to do a check.

Gil Duran tweet: TLDR: Fascism in response to Palantir's long fascists screed on X.

"Your Account is Suspended" Message on X

The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X.

I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!).

So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.

You mean the leadership pledges which Keir Starmer is busy delivering?

The media hate him, like any other Labour PM, but with Starmer they fear him, because they recognise his ability, determination & danger to the conservative right. So, they pile in on him extra hard, in an attempt to destroy him & remove the threat. With him, they can no longer get what they want.

Look at these posts and tell me that social media isn't sending people insane. *Keir Starmer* doesn't think he is delivering on the ten pledges he made during the Labour leadership election for goodness sake!

No wage, only spend

If it’s going to replace everyone’s job, who’s going to be around to purchase all the goods and services of all these companies?

"soft power is over"

-- a bunch of guys who still want to be invited to parties with the guy who destroyed American soft power

Drawing, writing, gaming...

Yeah. "I disagree with the Court's legal analysis" is one thing, but "the Court isn't using legal analysis to decide cases" is another. The latter is no longer in the realm of law and should not be treated as if it is.

I said it before and I'll say it again:

Giving a pack of Epstein associates a comprehensive list of all children in the country with home address and school listed, sortable by various traits that indicate vulnerability to exploitation, is the literal diametric opposite of keeping kids safe.

A bright yellow kiosk stands in stark contrast to the background.

One of my favorite Yugoslav designs is the K67 modular kiosk. Injection molded modular plastic building often used for newspaper vendors, coffee shops and info kiosks. Could be linked together like legos. www.archpaper.com/2023/01/univ...

Star Trek The Original Series scene. We're in a CORRIDOR! A room door is open, and we see two crewmen spilling out into the hallway in red and blue uniforms. They are otherwise indecipherable tho because they are entirely enveloped in a big cloud of smoke. It's pouring out all around them and into the hallway area, like there's a Phish concert in there. Closed caption reads, "[COUGHING]"

Holy shit these kids are brave.

i have been saying since the term started that dems have rolled over because insider trading is nonpartisan

The media blackout of Jared Kushner’s historic, ongoing corruption scandal As Trump's son-in-law returns to Pakistan for more talks with Iran, major news outlets are largely ignoring an egregious conflict of interest.

1. As Jared Kushner heads to Pakistan to represent the United States in critical talks with Iran, the media is ignoring a historic corruption scandal.

Kushner is serving in this role while on the payroll of the Saudi government.

Let's look at the data.
