I've weighed pros and cons and I think it's still worth pointing out something out: the accusation is horrible and unjustified, but giving it airtime normalises it.
BBC News: "the government believe refugees are deliberately bringing their children to avoid deportation"
As opposed to doing what with their children??

Happy 55th birthday to the computer mouse!
A patent for an “X-Y position indicator for a display system” was awarded to Douglas Engelbert on the 17th of November 1970.
In the beginning there was the command line, then clicky clicky clicky!

The AI bubble may be about to bust.
Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock.
We all need to say this very clearly:
NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH!
Expropriate their asses instead.
They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet.
They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

Is it just me or does the “We didn’t use AI honest!” Video feel like it was scripted, performed and made using AI?
Mirroring the video here if you don't want to even humor going onto Twitter, but when it gets into the "process" section, there's so many red flags of them lying about the work they put into the commercial that reveal how much of this video is them trying and lying after the fact.

Had an idea for a procedurally generated “Choose Your Own Adventure” PacMan story, but at a rough estimate it would have more than 13 million entries, and while the idea is funny… I don’t think it’s funny enough to warrant anyone printing it.

The baby has somehow combined “thank you” and “there you go” into “ke’ko” which is a universal term that denotes the exchange of an item.
