put differenty: if only 10 % of white collar jobs were being layed off, it would rattle the social fabric.

also: all this previously distributed labor power would end up being concentareated in some data centers owned by a few douche bags.

I'm not even saying that's the most *likely* possibility, but it's just very clear that the likelihood of that outcome as increased and even if there's, like, a 1 in 10 change that "AI replaces most to all white collar jobs in 10 years" that's an *enormous* risk to the social order!

I have yet to see any evidence that there is a market for AI-generated books outside of people being tricked into thinking they are not AI-generated books. AKA, it is a project of scamming and deceiving people, and really should be treated as fraud

Bruce McCandless and Robert Stewart, mission specialists on the Space Shuttle Challenger during STS-41-B, used nitrogen-propelled maneuvering units to perform the first untethered spacewalks #OTD in 1984. 🧪 🔭 🚀
(1/n)

Images: NASA
Astronaut Bruce McCandless about 100 yards from the space shuttle during an EVA, with no tether. The Earth is bright and blue below him, with a scattering of feathery white clouds across the surface. McCandless is suspended above, small and white against the black backdrop of space. Another shot of Bruce McCandless during an EVA, this time much closer to the shuttle. The Earth below him is covered in clouds. Space above the Earth is black and featureless; any stars that would be visible are washed out by the bright surface below. McCandless is in his white, clunky spacesuit with its reflective copper-colored visor and a large, blockish maneuvering unit on his back.

Das Bild zeigt eine einfache Comic-Zeichnung eines personifizierten Kopfkissens. Das Kissen hat zwei große Augen, einen kleinen Mund sowie dünne Ärmchen und Beine. Es steht aufrecht und hebt eine Hand, als würde es dozieren. In einer Sprechblase sagt das Kissen: „Wer nicht einschlafen kann, muss ausschlafen.“ Ein Pfeil zeigt auf die Figur und bezeichnet sie als: „Kissen des Wissens.“ Unten links in der Ecke steht die Signatur „islieb“.

Es gibt da einen Online-Shop, der hat ganz neue Versandmethoden. Das muss diese Verkehrswende sein, von der so oft geredet wird.
Screenshot mit ein paar wenigen Details zur Bestellung. Unter anderem wird als Versandmethode "Schifffahrt auf dem Landweg" angegeben.

Der Mann leidet sichtlich... Das erklärt seine ständigen Forderungen, den Ärmsten auch noch das Wenige wegzunehmen, das sie haben. Es ist nicht Grausamkeit, sondern Fürsorge: Je weniger sie besitzen, desto weniger können sie darunter leiden. Das ist wahrer Altruismus.

Man könnte ein Gesetz formulieren: Je schneller, reflexhafter und gegen jede Expertenmeinung ein Innenminister nach einem Gewaltfall "härtere Strafen!" ruft, desto weniger taugt er für das Amt. Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) liefert dafür gerade den eindrucksvollen Beweis.

(DE) Schwarz-weiße A4-Tuschezeichnung: Ein beleuchtetes Café steht mitten im Weltraum und erinnert in seiner Gestaltung an Edward Hoppers Gemälde „Nighthawks“. Durch große Fenster sind Astronauten zu sehen, die im Inneren an Tischen sitzen. Außerhalb des Cafés befinden sich weitere Astronauten im freien Raum; zwei spielen Karten, ein anderer liest ein Buch. (EN) Black-and-white A4 ink drawing: A brightly lit café in outer space is designed in a way that recalls Edward Hopper’s painting Nighthawks. Through large windows, astronauts can be seen sitting at tables inside. Outside the café, in open space, other astronauts are present; two are playing cards and another is reading a book.

This pup found a stick shaped like an old timey pipe earlier today and has already solved three mysteries. 13/10
a brown wire-haired pup stands on a wooden deck in a grassy yard. he looks at us with golden eyes and his right ear flipped inside out. he has a pipe-shaped stick in his mouth, giving him the appearance of a sophisticated and dapper gentleman. just give him a deerstalker cap and a cloak, and he'd give Sherlock Holmes a run for his money.

Man sieht an den eingeblendeten Nachrichten, dass der Comic schon was älter ist, aber das Bedürfnis, sich selbst Torten ins Gesicht zu schmeissen, bleibt aktuell. Don't give up.
Ein Comic darüber, wie man sich selbst aufmuntern muss angesichts von schlechten Nachrichten.

Auf der Meta-Ebene ist es fast bewundernswert, mit welch schlafwandlerischer Zuverlässigkeit und unerschütterlicher Selbstgewissheit Friedrich Merz bei jeder sich bietenden Gelegenheit ausnahmslos die genau falschen Worte findet. Ein Elefant im Porzellanladen wirkt dagegen wie eine Primaballerina.

This hit so fucking hard today.
CHARLES RAFFERTY The Problem with Early Warnings People don't like to leave a party unless the house is actually on fire. Even then, if the flames are far enough away to be pretty, they'll finish their drink, take one more pass at the hors d'oeuvres. How things happen has always been unclear. Hurricanes begin in a place where no one lives. Agents of the government start to wear masks. Fascism is a word my neighbors won't use yet. They are following the law, they say, and the sirens are coming for someone else.
