my coffee maker just tried to melt so uh...guess I'm looking for a new drip coffee maker. Does anyone have any suggestions for inexpensive ones that they like?

Hey folks, if you like what I do, consider throwing a little tip my way, because with the winter bills I'm going to be slapped with next month, I think I'm gonna need the help.

A Gen-AI Vtuber is one of the biggest streamers right now...

Let me repeat and rephrase that for y'all.

A VTUBER THAT IS POWERED BY GEN-AI IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST STREAMERS!

I'm fucking speechless and not in a good way obviously.

I can’t handle the stress, my bunny just tried jumping onto furniture and missed and landed loudly I’m not sure if they are in pain or not.

Please help me secure them into a safe place, I hate to ask this but I haven’t been able to afford the $150 right now 🥹 💔

Keep hearing devs say that they only use ai for "pre-concept art"

There is no pre-concept art. There is concept art. That's where the idea starts. With the concept.

You're using ai for concept art.

I really want to get back to streaming now that the holidays are done. I'm still figuring out how to get everything done I need to do with my new schedule, but once I am more comfy in that I really hope that streaming can start happening again

FYI the survey has been pulled down. Also, there’s some bs going around about it being a phishing scam.

You never gave any info to take the survey, so unsure how people think it will give access to your discord account. You should have 2FA on regardless tho.
I know plenty have folks have shared it but in case you missed it, Discord is asking for user opinions on adding AI to the platform. Give em hell and tell them precisely how you feel about it. Including the intent to leave if it's added in.

The options in the survey are very direct and unambiguous. Things like "I will stop using your service if implemented". Make sure to get this done and leave additional feedback about your thoughts too.
Discord is trying to add new AI features to their platform. They're asking people to fill out a survey on how they feel about AI and what "value" it would add to their platform. Please take a few minutes to fill it out and tell them to fuck off with AI.

RE Larian and GenAI: now that we know the physical impact of LLMs and the data centers they require to run, even if trained off in-house data, there is still NO ethical way to use GenAI

A woman whose idea of crushing poverty is "You live in a huge house in the country and your dad has a cushy government job which pays more than well enough to comfortably support a wife and eight kids, but sometimes you have to wear your older brother's hand-me-down shirts"
Rowling came from wealth. Her rags to riches story is also a myth. There are whole video essays out there debunking it. She was never "poor" in the way that actually poor people experience poverty. She had a wealthy person's social safety net (friends and family would just give her money.)

The real reason JK Rowling is comfortable with her choice is that she shares far more than a "single opinion" with Donald Trump. A persistent myth that needs to be pushed back against is that Rowling was ever the character she pretended to be on Twitter. She's a conservative activist. Always was.
