nothing says you care like sending an 18-year-old a link to a chatbot so you don't have to interact with them

"Starting in December 2024, the researchers began contacting the affected telecoms. T-Mobile responded by encrypting its satellite transmissions within weeks, but responses from other cell carriers were mixed."

Everything is cool and normal.

Thou shalt understand the difference between a lockout and a strike.

Thou shalt not use these terms interchangeably in commentary on CBA negotiations.

Thou shalt remind others of the distinction.

When I was homeless in 2019, the Salvation Army shelter refused to give me a bed (even though they were available), because I was on immunosuppressant meds and they didn’t want to be responsible or liable if I got more sick or died on premises. They’d rather I die on the street.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

A screenshot of the Sackbird website that shows their social media icons replaced with intentionally bad MS Paint-style art

A screenshot of the Sackbird website which used to have an AI-generated skyline of Baltimore, and now has an intentionally shitty bunch of brown boxes labelled as "Fort McHenry" and "Sackbird Studios" in Comic Sans. It has clearly been drawn in MS Paint in about 5 minutes

interesting that they didn't bother naming the alleged artist, and also they claimed the AI crap was "customised and polished by us" but this did not, apparently, involve drawing an actual clock on the clock tower. with this kind of attention to detail, I'm sure their games are going to be great.
