@cwebber@social.coop Battlestar Galactica making out with the USS Constitution in a sort of spring/fall dynamic

us politics right now are like

republicans: building concentration camps, dismantling any remnants of the state that might be used for the public good, re-codifying a deeply bigoted hierarchy, cementing a dictatorship in place, destroying access to information and the world outside of the US in general

democrats: "so here's why I agree with republicans on why a single trans woman tying for fifth place in a swimming contest is something we all need to talk about"

fuuuuuuck you

@RamenCatholic@mindly.social this sounds suspiciously like a ploy to steal our pets.

@whitequark@mastodon.social @JennyFluff@chitter.xyz "lessee, 1 mm... 2 mm... 3 mm.. oh, that's the second 3 mm mark... ah, there's the second 2 mm mark... oh, here's the 4 cm mark, so that's 6 mm..."

me, two seconds after cuddling the cat by burying my face in his side while he purrs: "why is my eye puffy and tired feeling suddenly"

"Our new tech startup steals the divine light of humanity from the hearts of the people and throws it into a volcano where it can never be recovered! We then sell people expensive coal lumps as replacements. Our IPO is valued at four billion dollars and a slew of blogfluencer posts about why 'coal is divine' are already dropping in the tech sphere, and our CEO was featured on Forbes' '40 under 40' hot list!"

Everytime someone says how much time some fucking LLM saves them on emails or something, this is what you're saying. You're just saying you don't even pretend to give a flaming fuck about anyone or anything, even the people you claim to love. You're an asshole. Fuck you.

ooops, shot day.

"I've found a use for the coal-that-lives-in-my-heart-where-once-passion-dwelled-now-dwells-subservience-and-an-unearthly-chill-previously-unknown-to-humankind! I no longer have to waste time talking to my kids or parents because I just don't give a shit about human feelings, so I can work extra hard for my fascist overlords! This is so great!"

coal-vibe-bloggers: "wow, why does everyone hate us? coal, please help my friends understand that you're great."

BY THE WAY

If we consider the pre-LLM internet to be basically a giant fucking library, which it was,

then an LLM-as-search-engine is burning the fucking library. You got me? You don't have to start with physically burning the libraries. This is literally the internet equivalent of burning a library: destroying the ability to find information. Because the internet is decentralized, it's harder to shut down all the sites that give information they don't like (but ooooh, they're doing it).

If you can't physically burn all the libraries, then closing down how the populace gets to them (AND creating fake libraries populated with whatever bias you want) is equivalent.

it's too fucking hot and there's too many fucking nazis

lighting up a chair in a sensual manner you know, they say sitting is the new smoking

Such a perfect encapsulation of precisely what is wrong with what passes for the 'left wing' here, where 'equality' isn't about destroying barriers and flattening hierarchies but instead merely letting more groups participate in subjugation.

"Some of our prison guards are women" is not liberatory.

AI enabled genocide, AI enabled surveillance in a country where women are being prosecuted for miscarriages, AI enabled "leadership" in a country where massive databases are being built and computational power expanded at the cost of livable communities and the climate, shilling for companies that are not only responsible for all this but also continue to do layoffs that hit women (particularly BIPOC and/or LGBTQ women) extra hard, companies that defended and sheltered executives that sexually harassed people...

what the fuck.

I guess I'm on a "women who code" mailing list, and maybe I'm confusing them with some other groups but holy fuck the email I just got from them, shut it the fuck down. You've jumped the goddamn shark, fuck offffffff.

Shilling for "AI leadership", companies that are at the forefront of enabling technological abuse, and "investment options"... 900 fucking dollars for the basic pass?

fuck

you

"womenwhocode" my ass.

jenkins: here's a scrollable frame inside a scrollable frame. the scrollbars are hidden and also overlap.

yay.

@SnoopJ@hachyderm.io thankfully, scroll wheel / trackpad to the rescue.

Attempts to click the scrollbar when it showed on hover resulted only in clicking the 'outer' scrollbar, but scrolling with the wheel scrolls the inner one.

I'm just like ffs, gimme raw text for this section.

@SnoopJ@hachyderm.io yeeeeeep

well, it does taste... I hesitate to say good, because I reserve that for chili oil that is actually spicy, but it is good. And it was good with kimchi.

boooooooo anyway took my shot and I guess that 'la croix of chili oil' will have to suffice.

"oil from a plant that once saw a painting of a chili pepper in another room while it was being moved"
