"RemoveWindowsAI" is a script created by zoicware, available on GitHub, that does exactly what it says: it remove every AI feature in Windows 11. Do what you wish to do with this information. I'm sharing this because some folks are forced to use Win11 at work or other places for any reasons.

Do the right thing. Make the call, send the email, tell your representatives to vote against this horrific bill.
The House is expected to vote this week on Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene's bill to make providing trans youth with gender-affirming care punishable by up to 10 years in prison.
Life-saving health care is on the line. Tell your members of Congress to reject this bill NOW.

However you feel about Lichtenstein this sounds like an incredibly good idea.
For years I’ve been trying to get someone at DC or Marvel to create an art book titled “Lichtenstein in Context” reprinting the stories he plagiarized as RL would have seen them (no modern recoloring) and giving the proceeds to the artists or their families. Sell it in museum gift shops.

12 dead at a mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach.💔
A 43-year-old father of two, Ahmed al Ahmed, snuck up & tackled a gunman to disarm him. Ahmed was shot twice.

So there is already an ai-generated whitewashing campaign to bury the name of the Muslim man, Ahmed al Ahmed, who disarmed one of the Bondi Beach shooters, and replace his identity with a white guy name and that’s why even a thimble of our potable water powering this tech is too fucking much.

I'll bet someone has already made something like this but heading into the new year, it would be great to have something like a guide to affordable art where people looking for illustrators, designers, artists could search for people to hire. I know that I am always looking to work with artists.

Some numbers for context.
~100 US people a year will die in mass shootings.
> 1000 will be shot by cops.
Mass shootings target everyone. Cop shootings, especially those of unarmed suspects, disproportionately target Black people.
None of this is necessary. We choose to live like this.
