“We’re very, very sorry, mein Führer! We have punished the hotel that refused to host your Gestapo” - HHilton Hotels.

Imagine claiming you’re a ‘welcoming place for all’ while supporting the monsters throwing kids in concentration camps.

Hilton is asking for a massive boycott.

I read *Automatic Noodle* written by Annalee Newitz.

A group of sentient robots open a noodle shop in the near-future independent nation of California to support themselves in the absence of their employer.

Absolutely wonderful cozy scifi transhumanist novella.

We're stoked to introduce the 'No Gen AI' seal for indie games!

Indie devs can use it on their game's store page to assure potential players that their game was made without the use of Generative AI.

You can grab it from the Polygon Treehouse website:-

You don't have to listen to these professional liars who are barely trying. 9 months ago they were saying they were powerless to return a man they illegally sent to an El Salvador gulag because it would violate that country's national sovereignty
Vance pushes back and says this was not illegal, arguing "Maduro has multiple indictments in the United States for narcoterrorism. You don't get to avoid justice for drug trafficking in the United States because you live in a palace in Caracas."

I don't recall off hand who made the point about AI being, more than anything else, a machine for displacing responsibility. That increasingly looks like its most reliable feature
This is a thread of major media outlets falsely anthropomorphising the "Grok" chatbot program and in doing so, actively and directly removing responsibility and accountability from individual people working at X who created a child pornography generator (Elon Musk, Nikita Bier etc)

Another day, another reddit thread of "this is a list of fantasy genre books for my tbr" which has 37 books/series... all authors are white people, 35 are men, nearly all books are at least 10 years old (most are 20+).

As if artists don't have enough to deal with, Amazon has a "Buy For Me" program in beta which is scraping indie shops for their items and putting them up on Amazon (often incorrectly), for their "AI agent" to buy from the other site. It is NOT opt in, and there is no opt out.
I just found out that our stuff is being sold on Amazon - WITHOUT our consent or any ability to opt out bc Amazon is just scraping artist’s websites and putting our shit in their search results. Again, without our permission.

We were just in Japan and maybe 30% of the people around us at any given time had masks. Then we needed masks because my husband got a bug, and they were easily available, cheap, and comfortable. It was so nice to be a place that has even a modicum of care for the others around you.

Officially, seven people have died in ICE detention this month. Thinking about the way the Trump admin vanishes both people and data, I suspect the real number is higher.
December Was Deadliest Month in Deadliest Year in ICE Custody Deaths
There has been an alarming spike in immigrants dying while in ICE detention during the Trump administration.

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

Jesus Christ, this guy did everything so by the book he didn't even cross the border until he had his day in court and they still just black bagged him off to torture prison.
Detainee they are interviewing was a college student in Columbia. Waited in Mexico until he had a 2024 immigration interview in CA - a scheduled appointment - where he was told he was a danger to society. Claims he has no criminal record, never even got a traffic ticket. Was immediately detained
