Game journos has fallen extremely deep due to the insane damage they've all done to themselves and the days of the ragebait is now completely gone so they're trying to salvage what's left of it by doing whatever the fuck this is and getting clicks with wiki articles and guides people search for on search engines
It was bad enough with native ads, then gamergate made everything political and retarded. After all that settled, the industry decided to side with the screeching lefties instead of the actual audience of gamers. So it's been a death spiral ever since. Sad times when you gotta shill a mattress. Dick pills or pharma ads are probably on the horizon.
Fuck it. Let's go back to usenet. I can probably remember how to use nn.

"I think sometimes programmers forget that their primary job is to create a world where we need *less* programmers, not more."
I've consistently expressed various forms of this sentiment on https://blog.codinghorror.
"Trump is lying! Trump is stupid! He's so corrupt, and he needs to be impeached! I can't believe the media is letting him get away with this!"
That's it? That's all we've got, as our future is stolen from us and replaced with a fascist, dictatorial nightmare, complete with concentration camps, and genocide in the works?
Where are the riots? Where are the marches? How can this guy and his supporters and enablers even show their faces in public without being afraid for their very lives?
This isn't hypothetical, people. It is happening *right now*. We have been hijacked by someone who intends to kill us, but everyone sits calmly in their seats, thinking they can ride it out, right up to the last breath.
@flamingored there *have* been millions of protestors. There's no media coverage of it, but there was a day of the 50501 protests where there were millions of people out there at once. There have been all sorts of protests popping up all over the place, you're just not hearing about them And I agree there needs to be more But it's not like everyone is silent
@raphaelmorgan @flamingored Protesting for like one day does nothing. They can work but they need to be like a week long at least. People aren't taking this seriously IMHO, and until we wake up to what's actually happening America is lost. I'm sick of people online, Reddit is a great example, saying shit like "oh, but what can we do?" when someone asks why more isn't being done. We clearly can not handel the situation we're in at the moment, and I hope to God something will change sooner rather than later, because honestly we don't have much time left.
@raphaelmorgan @flamingored I also need to be clear that I'm not one of these people who are all like America will never recover Trump is king bla bla bla, we will get through this one way or another, but we need to start being loud to get the ball roling.
@ZBennoui @raphaelmorgan @flamingored I think we will have to start over from scratch to make it work, personally. But we should do our best to skip the death camps currently looming between us and the end goal of rebuilding what we have lost.
We are going to have to do some hard thinking and hard work, however we get through this. I think we will at the minimum need some new constitutional ammendments to thoroughly limit executive power. No one person should have that much power. The collective's decisions should be made collectively. Pardons need to go. Appointments need to go. Executive orders need to go. Military and police should not report to the same person. Prosecutors should not report to presidents. Chop it all up and put it in the hands of multiple people that have to vote. If we have to have an executive, we should have more than one, each with a sliver of responsibility and power, and each independently elected. Our system is broken.
@ZBennoui @raphaelmorgan @flamingored And different voting methods should be put into place, too. Ranked choice or something that doesn't incentivize the formation of a binary political system with red and blue vying against each other like fucking sports teams, casting each other as villains to fight over the tiny scrap of swing voters that have all the control. A bottom-up system, not a top-down one, so the people really do rule themselves. Proportional representation to eliminate the tyranny of the majority. There are all kinds of things we can and probably should do to make our government truly representative and accountable and reliable.
@ZBennoui @raphaelmorgan @flamingored Oh, and mandatory voting. Such a simple fix for voter apathy and low voter turnout that leads to learned helplessness.
@ZBennoui @raphaelmorgan @flamingored What is a way that everyone can be visible in DC no matter where in the country they live? Beyond calling reps. How can we impress upon them our numbers?
@CassandraVert @raphaelmorgan @flamingored Go out into the streets, every day. Don't go to work, shut everything down. I get a lot of people feel like they can't do this but do you really think the outcome of something like that is worse than the alternative?
@ZBennoui @CassandraVert @raphaelmorgan @flamingored The trick is to make it synchronized. One person doing it alone is just a person who will be hungry soon. A whole nation doing it together is a whole nation putting its fucking foot down and saying enough is enough.
@CassandraVert @raphaelmorgan @flamingored Yes exactly this, we all need to step up and shut this shit down once and for all. Send a verry strong message that we are the bosses around here, not them.
@8petros @ZBennoui @raphaelmorgan @CassandraVert I agree with all of the above. People in large numbers are needed to solve the issue, strike and shut down the economy. Being in the streets might be dangerous with such a violent administration, but refusing to work, reduce purchases to the bare minimum, only purchasing from small local businesses, etc. might be needed. I can't see there's a painless way to stop a wannabe dictator, but the sooner the easier and less time to do damage
@flamingored @8petros @ZBennoui @raphaelmorgan @CassandraVert Without synchronization, any effort of this sort will fail. We absolutely *have* to get people to act not only in large numbers, but to do it in unison. That will create a noticeable jolt, instead of invisible drag.
@CassandraVert @ZBennoui @raphaelmorgan @flamingored DDOS their email accounts and phone lines? Like straight-up grass-roots activism. "Call or email your representative," but synchronized like a virtual march or protest?
When I talk about people putting there head in the sand about AI, this is what I'm talking about, pretending like a problem doesn't exist doesn't make it go away
Thank you. I agree with some of the takes about AI not being the magic button that will fix everything, but these models do have uses and will not be going anywhere. People who just dismiss AI as if it's not a real thing will wake up to the facts soon enough.
Exactly. One good thing to note is that this tech is still new, and it takes time for people to really understand where it helps and where it just slows you down, so I think in the next five years or so the talk around AI will be much different.

"The NBER paper comes on the heels of other indications suggesting that AI’s potential, while tremendous, has been vastly overstated in the media and the market."
But they're doing the exact overstatement here with the phrase "while tremendous."
""The main driver of adoption, it seems, is corporate FOMO, with nearly two-thirds of CEOs agreeing that “the risk of falling behind drives them to invest in some technologies before they have a clear understanding of the value they bring to the organization,” according to the study.""

Tak jsme se ženou nechali od @sesivany navézt do editace @osmcz přes StreetComplete a řešíme takové ontologické dilema: Je klasická pražská mozaika ze své podstaty spíše dlažbou nrbo dlažební kostkou?
Já to chápal užitně, že je narozdíl od kočičích hlav ok pro vozík, podpatky nebo skateboard, tudíž dlažba.
Teď jsem si ale všiml, že jiní to karegorizují jako kostky a jakože musím uznat, že se skládá z kostek...
některé tagy nemají jasně vymezené hranice, což bývá předmětem dlouhých diskusí na fóru. Člověk by se tak neměl trápit tím, že stejnou věc někdo jiný označuje jinak, pokud se jedná o podobné materiály. Dlažební kostky (sett) mají být nahrubo opracované přírodní kameny do podoby kostky, mezery mezi nimi jsou zpravidla větší. Dlažba (paving stones) může být jak z přírodního, tak umělého materiálu, má dokonalejší tvar a je zpravidla vydlážděná s menšími mezerami. To, co je na fotce, jsou za mě dlažební kostky, ale ani s dlažbou člověk velkou chybu neudělá.
Hi everyone. Please share this far and wide. An Open Letter to OpenAI and Jony Ive: Building an Accessible Future Together By Mike Calvo, CEO and Co-founder, Pneuma Solutions Dear Sam Altman and Jony Ive: As a community of passionate consumers and advocates, we are excited about the merger between OpenAI and io, Jony Ive’s visionary company. This collaboration holds real promise for groundbreaking innovation. We want to make sure that the future you're building includes the millions of people with disabilities who can benefit from it. Jony, your legacy at Apple transformed how accessibility was viewed in technology. From VoiceOver to your commitment to inclusive design, you helped raise the bar for what accessibility should look like. Sam, OpenAI’s work with platforms like Be My Eyes has already proven how AI can enhance lives. Your combined track records show that accessibility can be a foundation, not just a feature. But we’ve also seen what happens when companies overlook that foundation. The Humane AI Pin and the Rabbit R1 launched with high expectations, yet they failed to meaningfully include our community. These products were missed opportunities. They serve as reminders of why it’s so important to involve disabled users from day one. Our community is not a small corner of the market. We are early adopters, loyal customers, and passionate users of technology that works for us. If you truly want to innovate, then bring us in early. We urge you to connect with organizations that represent a wide range of disabilities and to invite community members to participate as beta testers and advisors. Because nothing about us should be decided without us. This is a chance to create something truly inclusive, to honor the accessibility legacy you’ve already helped shape, and to build a future where everyone benefits. We’re here. We’re ready to collaborate. Let’s make sure this next chapter of innovation includes all of us. Sincerely, Mike Calvo CEO and Co-founder Pneuma Solutions
"A piece made by weaving music can also, at the same time, have a poetic, narrative, visual, or ritual nature, depending on the culture that created it. What is now regarded as an organic element of all aesthetic manifestations was regarded as an innovative and risk-taking sort of interdisciplinary experimentation during the Dark Night of Capitalism. By contrast, almost all literature appeared in one particular privileged form, in a solitary object that needed writing: the book"
81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.
Seen many blind people advocating for Audible's AI narration instead of having narrators they don't like record the audiobook and its takes like this that make me super ashamed of some in my own community. I can't even think of what to call these people.
The reasoning is that an AI voice won't be busy or expensive so we can get more audiobooks and just... I strongly suspect these are Blind people that hate audiobooks and want them gone or otherwise reduced in pop culture. I can't understand the logic otherwise.
Yeah this is a dumb take. I go to Audible or other places like that to get books read by humans. If I want AI, I can just get a book from Bookshare and load it up in Eleven Labs reader or use one of the many TTS APIs from Google or Microsoft to make my own audio book. That not only gives you more choice in terms of voices but also doesn't fool people who may not be able to detect AI generated audio into thinking they're listening to a real human voice actor.
Admin of todon.nl suggests, and rightly so, that the default/flagship Mastodon instance (isn’t decentralisation great?) be moved to a more neutral jurisdiction than Germany:
“Herewith the urgent request to move the Mastodon server presented to new users as the default (mastodon.social) to a more neutral jurisdiction (e.g. Switzerland). An alternative is to set up a new Mastodon server in a more neutral jurisdiction, which can then serve as a new flagship server.
The trigger for this is the regular negative moderation of people who speak out against the largest and bloodiest genocide of our time, the one in Palestine. In particular they use (or abuse, how you want to look at it) of a German law that seeks to counter so-called Holocaust reversal. With hiding behind this law, the moderators of mastodon.social (and especially its owner) are also unwittingly sitting in the chair of the (German) judge.
Apart from the fact that one local law should not affect the entire Mastodon project, the question is whether this law and the concept of Holocaust reversal are legally tenable in an international context.”
Mastodon mod closes the ticket after stating “There is no current plan to make changes to the Mastodon instances operated by Mastodon gGmbH. People are free to choose any Mastodon server when signing up for the platform.”
And this (see screenshot) is what that “choice” looks like.
This decentralisation anti-pattern – along with the fact that they didn’t close registrations after hitting a certain size to create a social precedent and allow distribution to other servers (as I advised Eugen to do back in the day) – is why there is a flagship instance to begin with when it’s an absolute contradiction of terms in a system that purports to be decentralised.
Herewith the urgent request to move the Mastodon server presented to new users as the default (mastodon.social) to a more neutral jurisdiction (e.g. Switzerland). An alternative is to set up a new ...
