I’ve had to tell YouTube “don’t recommend this channel” now with so many game-oriented YouTube channels because their thumbnails are all AI.
When it comes to the usage of GenAI, retro gamers like youtubers and people making assets for fangames for specific engines and frontends might be the biggest offenders. Every addon software for stuff like EmulationStation, Batocera, etc. are now using AI generated logos or thumbnails for their shit

A timely reminder - killing wolves to stop livestock attacks doesn't work.
In fact, research suggests it could result in an increase in attacks. Killing wolves is counterproductive, cruel, and unsustainable. Non-lethal methods are more effective.

Why Killing Wolves Might Not Save Livestock
Unless you kill a whole lot of them. Kill just a few wolves, a new study finds, and livestock losses actually rise.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

Masked government agents are killing people in the streets, abducting people from their homes in the middle of the night, and arresting those who speak out.

Border Patrol agents continue to make arrests outside the Whipple building near Minneapolis where protesters have gathered. Didn't see the entire event, but I saw this woman yelling at agents after they made an arrest of someone near her before they arrested and dragged her away.

In today's world, even making these kinds of statements will get you slandered, but I think it's more important to create a world where transgender people can live peacefully and be themselves, so I will continue to send out messages until my account is deleted

No, arrest the murderer now. If he walks they will keep killing us.
Q: Is there anything stopping state law enforcement from conducted an independent investigation even if the feds don't want it?
JACOBSON: Without assistance from the FBI, we would be at a loss to be able to initiate & conduct a thorough investigation. It would be very difficult if not impossible
