What the arguments about “other things use water and electricity” misses is that those things are often necessities.
LLM chatbots are not ever necessities. Not when they fuck up a simple Google search, and not when they tell your teenager they should tie a noose.

They booked a bunch of 14 year old models to come to a Mar A Lago party, told them to dress sexy and tried to ply them with alcohol.
These are the people who are willing to go on the record.

They refuse to do anything in the name of what’s right and just if it in any way disrupts their tenuous hold on power.
BREAKING: The Democratic National Committee will NOT release its long-awaited autopsy on Trump's 2024 win. The report is completed but Dem leaders decided it could distract from their winning streak, so it will remain secret. Not good.

Not trying to make light of anything here but I feel like an inordinate number of voice actors have been dying of late.

“AI is a bubble and it will burst. Most of the companies will fail. Most of the data-centers will be shuttered or sold for parts,” predicts Cory Doctorow (link below). At present, seven AI companies accounting for more than 1/3 of the stock market “endlessly pass around the same $100b IOU.”
"AI is the asbestos in the walls of our technological society, stuffed there with wild abandon by a finance sector and tech monopolists run amok. We will be excavating it for a generation or more."
This piece on AI by Cory Doctorow is spectactular.

I know it’s not remotely feasible but I wish comics would go back to newsprint.

That actually still seems worth it.
Turning off the AI in Gmail causes your account to no longer slit your emails up through Primary, Promotions, and Social. That's because Google is a petulant little bitch who doesn't like that you told them to fuck off with their bullshit slop scam.

World’s largest scientific review warns consumption of UPFs poses seismic threat to global health and wellbeing
Ultra-processed food (UPF) is linked to harm in every major organ system of the human body and poses a seismic threat to global health, according to the world’s largest review.
UPF is also rapidly displacing fresh food in the diets of children and adults on every continent, and is associated with an increased risk of a dozen health conditions, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease and depression. Continue reading...

Maybe I’m just a stick in the mud but I don’t get why live-action adaptations of Disney animated films hold such appeal. It’s just a handful of actors surrounded by a glut of CG animation telling a far less vibrant story.

Another thing Zohran did right was not going with the same boring as hell campaign signage that used the same patriotic colors as everyone else.

I had no idea this was going on. Definitely switched that garbage off right away.
If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

So imagine David Beckham pretended to have cancer and shoved a phone charger cable up his nose posing for a fake hospital photo.

Watched Tron: Ares. Worth the price of admission. Obvious objections aside, I thought it was an okay film. Not great and huge missed opportunities but not bad either. Definitely one of those films that needs to be seen in a theatre. Loved listening to the NIN soundtrack in surround sound.

Driving out rats like George Santos just by being elected should be reason alone to vote for Zohran.
Trump has been on a rampage against mayoral candidate Mamdani. Mamdani has already been driving out criminals even before taking office, it’s easy to see why Trump, a convicted felon, doesn’t like him.
