I don't like that you can deactivate an account for a short period but you can't do that here. A little annoying. It'd be a boolean flag and some materialized views, no?

you! Yes, you!

Go finish your writing! Hit your word count!

You can do it! You've posted the equivalent already!!

Using genai for a mutual aid post makes me aggressively trust the campaign less.

Today's the first day of #BlackAugust. You might remember me writing and talking about it last year.

Well, it's that time again.

LMFAO Mark Zuckerberg being in Harley Quinn as a Villian is canon

Destroy!

@iris_meredith This is a big reason why I'm hesitant on writing anything longform. There's a strong want to keep these two things separate and IMO, this want to divorce any sort of humanities chat in tech has been brewing since the angst folks had for the main/master switch with Git. That was a low effort lift; this, according to the author, puts them "behind the curve of the vibe".

@anildash

@mattl I'm seeing "GO FOR PURRR" lol

It's me, I'm nutso!

being at sub-100 posts probably makes me look like a bot.

oh well

That plain vanilla web website is using generative AI

https://plainvanillaweb.com/blog/articles/2025-05-09-form-control/

and

https://plainvanillaweb.com/blog/articles/2024-10-20-editing-plain-vanilla/

I'd double check EVERYTHING on that site in terms of code produced.

The fact that once something is clearly genAI, my trust of everything else around it falls apart is a bit of cognitive burden

send some energy for Stella, she gotta go to the vet today and she ain't doing too good (bad leg, bad allergies)

(send some energy for my pocket too, the estimate was a bit brazy)

Oh wow, it just threw in some history about Nazi science: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josef_Mengele (who was hunted by Israel for some time until they gave up in the 1960s)

So now would be a great time to work on a video platform with payment options because this is definitely going to piss off a lot of folks.

Google's YouTube is automatically generating voice models of folks using their prior content. It's opt out (because you, by default, are into weird AI shit, right?).

Down with Google.

Was just told I can't opt out of facial recognition for a flight out of the US

I'm heading to Europe and dude tried to say it was a FAA requirement. Asked him to show me, he pulled me to the side and wanted to confirm my ticket (a waste of time).

Was forced to go with the facial recognition to board the plane.

Not only is it bullshit, when I showed him this: https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/assets/documents/2017-Oct/biometric-exit-process-fact-sheet.pdf he apologized but then asked if I wanted to get off the plane. Laziness is dangerous under this administration and I hate that it was a brother too (hence why you can't just root for the tone)
