My favourite superpower? Critical Thinking.

  • To the surprise of absolutely no one. No?

    O the other hand, at least they spell it out. Willing to bet Meta is already doing all that and more behind the scenes, and data includes WhatsApp messages, DMs, photos... all the juicy stuff.

    At this point, posting AI content on these platforms might actually be a form of fighting back, since new models might get indigestion as a result. Would love to hear someone qualified chime in on this.

  • Look Ma No Wires

  • I don't miss it. I clicked today on a reddit search result after a long while and ended up on an AI generated search thing that was trying to be helpful. Noped the hell out.

  • "Accidentally" my foot, the one with bells on it. The engineers knew.

    Whether Elon knew and green-lit it, or even ordered the move as payback for his unceremonious departure from DOGE is anyone's guess. But I stand by what I said earlier, this was intentional - and more power to whoever pushed it to production.

  • Judging through the lens of history? A common enemy, and time. If there was another workable solution to the larger problem, they would have found it by now, as many people considerable smarter than me have tried.

    No outside factor can build a durable peace, unless that peace is desired from within. Strong-arm tactics from the outside lead to cease fires, not peace. The lid goes back to the pot, but the fire is still there.

  • Gormenghast, that is, the main massing of the original stone, taken by itself would have displayed a certain ponderous architectural quality were it possible to have ignored the circumfusion of those mean dwellings that swarmed like an epidemic around its outer walls. They sprawled over the sloping earth, each one halfway over its neighbour until, held back by the castle ramparts, the innermost of these hovels laid hold on the great walls, clamping themselves thereto like limpets to a rock. These dwellings, by ancient law, were granted this chill intimacy with the stronghold that loomed above them. Over their irregular roofs would fall throughout the seasons, the shadows of time-eaten buttresses, of broken and lofty turrets, and, most enormous of all, the shadow of the Tower of Flints. This tower, patched unevenly with black ivy, arose like a mutilated finger from among the fists of knuckled masonry and pointed blasphemously at heaven. At night the owls made of it an echoing throat; by day it stood voiceless and cast its long shadow.

    It's a mood.

    Thank me later.

  • Even a broken clock is right two times a day.

  • See my handle... and profile 😁

  • Quote aside, Catherynne is a great writer and all around human being. If you like fantasy, look her up.

  • Bit off topic, since I didn't listen to the audio version, but the Culture series from Banks is fantastic.

  • The policy is: don't. No need to rethink anything.

  • Tally me under "hell no".

  • TIL Bible swatting is a thing.
