Saw this meme in my timeline without AltText, and thought it was worth enhancing and passing along. So here it is refurbished and ready for the Fediverse. #DollyParton#Desecration#TormentNexus
Semi-serious question for my tech-savvy friends on the Fediverse: Could there be a way to distract an LLM from plagiarizing and copyright violating long enough to get it to spend its life playing Doom instead? Bonus points if you can get it to drink Mountain Dew and eat Cheetos as well. #Doom#Ai#LLM#Tech
@xankarn The modern information ecosystem is a mix of multiple overlapping catastrophes slowly -- and sometimes not so slowly -- degrading almost everything it touches. It's being propelled -- accidentally by some and intentionally by others -- by the profit motive, in my opinion.
@RealJournalism My monograph discusses the use of guillotines as part of urban climate resilience strategies to reduce heat, pollution, flooding, and health risks. Funding and inquiries welcome. #Climate#Oligarchs#Environment
@sundogplanets Photo of some man-made junk on an Australian beach. Planet Venus, swamp gas, weather balloon, air inversion with reflected headlights, flock of birds, aliens, in that order. Can't be genius Musk's wild west space plundering and colonizing, now can it? He's got enough money to get away with anything he wants, and the rest of us can just bugger off, as far as he and his corporate friends are concerned. Meanwhile, late stage capitalism is becoming increasingly dangerous for all life forms in the ecosphere. #SpaceDebris#Musk#Ecosphere#Capitalism
Nobody's ever seen the legal immunity given to sex offender and convicted felon Trump before, believe me! Author Lucian Truscott IV lays it all out: "It is becoming increasingly obvious that Donald Trump has pretty much ceased functioning as the president of the United States and begun acting as the boss of the Trump crime family. Even his order to attack the country of Iran has returned profits from his investments in tech stocks that produce parts for weapons systems deployed against Iran. He made some of the stock trades just before his order to attack became public knowledge." It's the corruption, stupid. https://luciantruscott.substack.com/p/crime-boss-donald-trump-beats-john
Saturday night, US political figure Donald Trump staged a surprise event at the annual White House Correspondents Dinner at which he was scheduled to speak. The surprise caused panic at the dinner leading to evacuation and possible rescheduling. Later in the evening Trump explained that the stunt was intended to highlight the need for a ballroom on the White House grounds where events like the disrupted dinner could be held. Earlier in the year, Trump had torn down the East Wing of the White House to create space for his ballroom. https://www.rawstory.com/white-house-correspondents-dinner-2676815189/ #USPolitics#Trump#WHCA#Ballroom#NewsMedia
@0shame@elilla My Polish friends always tell me that their language is pronounced exactly as it's spelled. I still suspect that they're pulling my leg.
