  • Quit ChatGPT: right now! Your subscription is bankrolling authoritarianism | Rutger Bregman

  • I think it’s optimistic to think they would even care about a boycott now. By volunteering to cross the lines that Anthropic wouldn’t cross, they’ve achieved Military Industrial Complex status. It doesn’t matter if you don’t pay for a subscription, you’ll fund them with your tax dollars whether you want to or not. Their mass surveillance tools are too valuable to let them fail, so they’ll get propped up and bailed out no matter what.

  • Too late. They have contracts with the Pentagon now and have officially achieved Military Industrial Complex status. You no longer get to vote with your wallet because your tax dollars will go to them whether you like it or not. The mass surveillance tools they provide are too valuable to let them fail.

  • The crazy thing about the calendar is that it’s right. A year ago, I wouldn’t have even expected an AI generated image to get the correct number of days in a week, but not only does it get that right, but it correctly shows that March has 31 days and that March 1999 started on a Monday.

    The placement isn’t that much of a giveaway either. Five or ten years before this hypothetical photo, that desk would have been just a desk, which is exactly where you’d have put a calendar. Old habits die hard, and I definitely knew people who still hung calendars next to their computer desk.

    It’s only going to continue to get harder to tell.

  • Yes, providing spoiler warnings for very old films is still appropriate and necessary

    Jump

  • I’m with you. I just posted about the ending of Psycho the other day and put it behind a spoiler tag. Sure, most people who have heard of that movie have also heard about how it ends, but the ones who haven’t should still have the chance to experience it for themselves.

  • Pickles

  • It is the way of my tribe to not let any part of the pickle jar go to waste. All of pickle juice must also be drank.

  • In case you’re not joking, Baby Boomers = Boomers. Their parents were from the Silent Generation or the Greatest Generation. Baby Boomer refers to people born in the “baby boom” caused by the prosperity and optimism following WWII, and these days is often shortened to just Boomer.

  • Originally they were there to notify first responders in case of an incident where the driver is incapacitated. You used to see them held up with suction cups so they could be removed when the baby was, in fact, not onboard. It seems like that original meaning has been kind of lost, but they didn’t start out as a “please don’t run into me” sign.

  • The cup knocked onto the ground is a nice touch.

  • What are you favourite ROM hacks?

    Jump

  • Banjo Kazooie Jiggies of Time

    It’s a romhack by Mark Kurko that makes Ocarina of Time into a Banjo Kazooie game. It’s really well done and I’ve heard it’s even compatible with the recently recompiled PC port of Banjo Kazooie.

  • I would to the same..

  • No, the wings would be fine. A 737 carries up to 48,000 lbs of fuel in the wings. Plus, when it’s in the air, the wings are supporting and transferring all of the lift holding the plane up and all of the thrust moving the plane forward. Having a couple dozen people on the wings isn’t going to make them fail.

  • If lights are flickering when you record videos, you probably need to change the settings on your camera to match your country’s grid frequency. Almost every video recording device will have a 50/60Hz setting somewhere.

  • For anyone else wondering, the world’s first USD billionaire was John D. Rockefeller in 1916. He was decidedly not Gen X.

  • And not because his company has a specific need for it, but specifically as a market denial tactic. It turns out, if you have no meaningful way to make your product useful, but also have more money than god, you can just disrupt global supply chains until your competitors can’t compete and your unwilling market is captured.

  • Roger Stone is another one who has seemingly been doing everything he does out of pure malice all along. No sign of him in the files yet, despite being a genuine creep.
