Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.

I've always kinda scoffed at stories about kids racking up debt on their parents' cards through microtransactions but man that shit happens quicker than you think

Yesterday my son was hanging out in the living room while I made dinner and was being too quiet, and when I checked on him I saw he had the PS5 controller and was on a random screen. Put TV back on, take controller, go back to the kitchen to this notification on my phone

I use Staples' online print service to put my order in, and go pick it up when it's ready (usually about a week later). You can even get it mailed to you!

I typically get around 50 photos printed at a time twice a year and it costs $15.

Jan! @heyitsjan.bsky.social · 7d

Anyway, it rules! And I have a feeling I'm not the only one doing it. It used to be impossible to find photo albums, now Michael's has a whole shelf full of them.

Jan! @heyitsjan.bsky.social · 7d

I started getting photos printed again last year and assembling physical photo albums. I got bummed thinking about how I had all these photos on my phone and PC and never looked at them and didn't know how I would eventually pass them down to my kids like I've begun inheriting my family's albums

Asking for cloth diapering or laundry advice is how you activate my trap card

Idk what to call this genre (Canadian indie??) but if you liked Metric circa 2010 you'll like Safeword

Giving local band Safeword a boost today because I just realized their music is on Tidal!
