I have spent the last week putting together a silly little dice rolling party game about being a witch and pondering your orb.
the playtests have gone well enough that I think it's now in a beta state, but that means I could use more testers who can go in blind and make sure the rules make sense.

If we are required to show a passport in order to vote, doesn’t that make passport fees an illegal poll tax?

all the years of "the internet is the repository of all human knowledge" takes have given people a vastly inflated idea of how much human knowledge is actually on the internet
it's literally impossible for an LLM to do a historian's job
it's not even LLMs sucking it's that they need data input to do anything and where's that data supposed to be coming from without historians
never met a computer that can dig through a thousand year old book in a library

Believe that they're really ending the surge in Minnesota when people on the ground say it's happened but also *even* if this is nothing but more face saving, it's a huge acknowledgement that they know they're losing and that the people of Minnesota are never going to stop protecting their neighbors

Reminder that “must be able to lift 50 lbs, stand for long periods, have a valid driver’s license” on job applications is a way to weed out disabled applicants.
“But what about accommodations?!”
Mysteriously, the job always goes to the person who doesn’t need them. Amazing how that happens.

The answer to this should be 'don't care' and to keep hammering them until they cease this shit entirely.
Discord has posted updated clarification:
-Discord is not requiring everyone to complete a face scan or upload an ID to use Discord
-The vast majority of people can continue using Discord exactly as they do today, without ever being asked to confirm their age

it's deeply funny how maintaining the belief in fascism requires hiding any contrary information, and how every institution has to abase itself toward that end.

What will those feisty Gen-Zers purchase next? Recklessly splurging on the $1.50 hot dog at Costco? An actual vegetable every other day? Perhaps even a second serving of gruel?
Gen Zers and millennials are swimming in student debt and may never own homes, but they’re splurging on gut-healthy juices and rotisserie chickens.
The Booming Business of Luxury Grocery Stores
A new crop of gourmet grocers has hit the city, drawing lines of trendy TikTokers, MAHA-curious health fiends and Instacart devotees who want to pop in for a treat.

I know that there is just so much going on in every direction, but it does really feel like we've reached a point of class divide where the people making Big Money Decisions are an alien species who can't imagine what the rest of us are thinking at any point.
That Super Bowl Ring ad backfired spectacularly.
People on Reddit are getting Amazon to refund their Ring products because of their partnership with Flock and that creepy Super Bowl ad

A lot of folks look at the things Musk says and immediately jump to the he "can" or "can't" do it (like can he get humans to Mars).
The critical mind would pause, reflect on everything he has done so far here on Earth and ask "SHOULD HE BE THE ONE DOING THIS AND WHY?"
That answer is *important*

god I could say this about everything in tech headlines right now. I want to go to outer space! I want my car to drive itself! I want a robot buddy! I want dire wolves! these things are all extremely cool!

And, as always, the heartbreaking part is that I WANT this to work. I'm not doing job protectionism here; healthcare workers need all the help we can get. A robot that could emulate a doctor who has unlimited time for every patient would be a lifesaver!
I hope someone invents one someday.

A reminder: this is an Irishman with valid papers speaking about how he's being held in US concentration camps. If you don't have to go to the US, do not go to the US. "GDC" is not "have to go". One denial at the border is going to mark you for life, and that's the best of the bad outcomes.
"A modern-day concentration camp ... People have been killed by the staff here." Irish citizen Seamus Culleton has been in ICE detention since September, despite having a valid work permit and his own business in the US.
