A meeting of the Apple Press. www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/jo...
Panel One: Tagline: At the monthly meeting of Apple media, rumor sites and stock market reporters... A person at a podium, in front of a gaggle of reporters, says “Apple has its most successful iPhone in years, and is at a 4 trillion dollar valuation. But good news is boring so we need to spread some fear, uncertainty, and doubt to get the views and engagement up. Panel Two: The person continues: We had a good run with how the iPhone Air is a complete disaster, and the utter chaos at Apple AI! And our follow up, that Tim cook is retiring, was very click-worthy! Panel Three: The stories on how most Apple executives are leaving are doing well, but can we all start referring to Apple Park as “The Titanic” and that everyone is abandoning ship? An audience member says “Agreed!” Another says “Good one! I’ll tweet that now. Panel Four: The Podium person continues. “And fabulous work team with those exposés like “What the heck is going on at Apple!” Keep that trend up, it’s a winner. We can all move to “Apple Bankruptcy Imminent” next month. Panel 5: A reporter in the crowd stands and asks “When do we start with the “Apple is back!” headlines?” The person at the podium says “Hold off a bit. we’re working on some “Tim Cook’s Secret Alien Baby” storylines that are testing well on social media.

Canada has a stake calling out Pete Hegseth's murder on the seas.
In June 1918 the hospital ship Llandovery Castle was sunk. The U boat murdered survivors in the water including 14 Canadian nurses.
Canada never forgot or forgave.
We have prosecuted war crimes ever since. Sucks to be you Pete.

Thankful for AI. www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/jo...
A Thanksgiving dinner scene, with family and friends gathered around a table of food, giving thanks… Man, reading from his phone: Today, we come together to celebrate the simple gifts — the laughter shared, the hands held, The bounty we feast upon, and the quiet moments that remind us of our shared humanity. Woman, reading from her phone: Esteemed friends and family, as we congregate amidst this cornucopia of culinary excellence, let us pause to promulgate our deepest sentiments of gratitude and reverence. Child, reading from her phone: With hearts replete and spirits effervescent, we offer our profoundest gratitude for the Herculean labors of those who cultivated, prepared, and presented this plentitude. May our conviviality transcend mere festivity, metamorphosing into a sublime celebration of kinship, generosity, and eternal abundance! Another man, reading from his phone: This feast, an assemblage of epicurean delights, stands as a monument to human perseverance, ingenuity, and benevolence! A symphony of abundance, a masterpiece of gratitude, and a celebration worthy of the finest tales ever told. Another woman, looking noticeable annoyed says “I give thanks that I never became as dependent on AI as all you morons!”

Note to the future. www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/jo...
Panel One: A man walks up to his friend, who is sitting on a park Bench writing on his phone. Friend A: Hey hi! What are you up to? Friend B: I’m writing a note, to future generations, apologizing for what is going on now. The political corruption, the dismantling of our country, the environmental devastation. Panel Two: Friend B continues as they both walk down a path. Hi says… I’m ashamed that all this has happened while I’m alive. I’m writing to tell them We should have been so much better than this, but somehow this country sunk to despairingly low levels of intelligence. And that many tried to stop this, but failed. Panel Three: The pair are silhouetted as they walk towards a fading sunset. Friend B continues: And that I will try my best to work towards bringing this insane timeline back to sanity, so at least not all is lost for them. Friend A asks: How do you plan to deliver this note? Panel Four: Tagline: Years from now… A tombstone sit in a dark grey landscape. Inscribed into the stone are the words “TO FUTURE GENERATIONS I’M SORRY I FAILED YOU. WE FAILED YOU. There is more inscribed on the stone, but the words are too small to read from our viewpoint.

Sir David Attenborough on iPhone Pockets www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/jo...
Panel One: Sir David Attenborough is speaking to the camera. He says… Hello, I’m Sir David Attenborough. Today we are going to examine a strange, exceedingly rare, and bizarre creature! The last sighting of anything close to this was over two decades ago when the iPod sock appeared seemingly out of nowhere! Panel Two: Sir David Attenborough stares at some iPhone Pockets, he is looking a little shocked. He says… I am of course taking about the iPhone pocket. Good Lord! What a hideous form! What misguided evil has Apple unleashed into the wild? And at what cost! Dear God! Panel Three: He continues, as more versions of iPhone Pockets appear… He breaks the Fourth Wall and says… Stop camera! Nitrozac and Snaggy, I’m sorry, but I cannot continue in this comic! These are just too disturbing! You are going to have to find some other narrator! Get me away from these creepy things! Panel Four: It is later. Rod Serling has now been hired as the comic’s narrator. Behind him is a set like the Twilight Zone. He says in his characteristic way… Imagine if you will... A tech company with a massively successful new phone and a stellar reputation. Suddenly out of nowhere, releasing a product universally panned and ridiculed… As if seemingly to troll the entire Internet!

Panel Four: A close-up of the “spider” in the long grass. It is actually an alien creature, wearing a helmet and a spacesuit. It is holding a communication device of some sort. “Attempted contact with Earth primates was again thwarted by a do-gooder confusing me with an arachnid!”

Close to me (Grokipedia edition) www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/jo...
To the Tune of... “(They Long to Be) Close to You” with apologies to Burt Bacharach and Hal David. Musical notes float around the lyrics… Why do facts suddenly disappear Every time you are near? Just like me, they long to be Far from you Why do Starlinks fall down from the sky Every time you spew lies? Just like me, they long to be Dead to you (there is a graphic of a Starlink satellite de-orbiting itself in a fireball, saying “I’m outa here, bye!” On the day Grokipedia was born the devils got together And decided to create a nightmare true So they copied Wikipedia, And changed the parts the right-wing wanted to. That is why, all the lies in town Follow you all around Unlike me, they long to be Close to you Ughhhhh, close to you Yuuuuuk, close to you Ewwwww, close to you Grosssss, close to you On the day Grokipedia was born The devils groked together And decided to create a nightmare true So they sprinkled lie dust everywhere And skepticism the Holocaust existed too! That is why, all the girls in town Run and hide while you’re around Just like me, they long to be Far from you And like me, They hate Nazis Just like you! Elon Musk is holding up the Grokipedia logo, while numerous women are running away from him disgusted.

Sam Altman introduces Sora Plus! www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/jo...
Sam Altman is talking to the reader… Panel One: Hi, I’m Sam Altman, CEO of Chat GPT. I see you are all having a great time using our app Sora to make AI videos of your friends and family and of the recently deceased! But there’s still a problem, isn’t there. Panel Two: You know what I mean. You’ve created a fantastically embarrassing or incriminating Sora video of someone you know, or a public figure, but then they say it’s an AI fake and that it isn’t them, or that they weren’t even there? It’s a drag! But now you can fight back! Introducing Sora Plus! Panel Three: A Sora Plus icon appears, like a regular Sora icon, but with an evil grin on the cloud. Sam continues… When you create a Sora video, Sora Plus automatically generates the following additional content! - Multiple camera angles! - Faux Time and location information! - Back-dated Flight records and hotel receipts! - Wikipedia entries and news reports! Plus our super genius AI will insert this content retroactively into their social media timelines! Your subjects can deny everything, but the world will see the “proof”! All in good fun of course! Panel Four: But it gets even better! If you upgrade to Sora Pro, you get access to our generative DNA Large Fabrication Model (LFM), which generates DNA samples of a person, using only a few photos! A perfect “frame” for your AI masterpiece!

Two scientists are talking to each other in a labratory… Panel One: Scientist 1: He thinks the 2020 election was stolen. He thinks Portland is a war zone. He thinks he has stopped all these wars and there’s a migrant crime wave. He thinks prices have never been cheaper! Here’s my hypothesis... Panel Two: Scientist 1: What if Donald Trump’s body exists in our universe but his mind perceives an alternate universe? A universe where all that is true? Scientist 2: OMG! That would explain a lot! Panel Three: Scientist 1: Maybe his orange skin is a physical manifestation of being trapped between two worlds? Scientist 2: Of course! A baryon asymmetry imbalance between our universe and a mirror anti-universe could account for the chromatic distortion! Panel Four: Scientist 1: So perhaps if we extract his conscious perception back to our universe, so he can see our reality, that would change things! Scientist 2: Can’t we just push his body into the other universe and slam the dimensional gate shut?
