Of course Larry fucking Ellison has to be involved. I’d rather have governments take advice from ChatGPT than him.

40 nanometers is a terrible range!

Yea, there’s a lot of work from which it’s quite worthwhile to free humanity. It’s just that an AI company having that as its tagline and full contents of its social media bio reads with a very particular anime villain cadence. Makes me think of Seymour Guado in Final Fantasy X vowing to “free the world of its sorrow”.,

Hey, that’s the epic battle fantasy guy. I loved his games back in the flash days.

Scientology would seem like the obvious one, then.

If either of the parties involved were just about any other science fiction author, it would be the among the least damning things I’ve heard of the other one, but it just had to be these two.

Delightfully non-ominous bio on @getlindy@x.com

Free humanity from work.

Neat, a double strange loop of a bad take!

Poster considers “Listen more to more Black people – and amplify their voices” a suspect point, and failing to listen further, misinterprets the advice and makes a non sequitur counterpoint.

Poster implies qualms with point “Post less – and think before you post” as well, and accordingly posts without thinking much at all.

That’s some self-consistent jackassery right there.

Still 1/5 acronym.

• Word unrelated to displays or groceries
• Secondary meaning as a sexual term
• Already used by Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution which is itself a mediocre acronym at best
• Two of the four non-particle words, “enhanced” and “environment” are meaningless filler only there to make the acronym work.

EDGE (enhanced display for environment)

did not even try

97-year old spammer still rakes in attention economy revenue the old fashioned way.

Don’t you know? The directive of redundancy directive requires that human-facing software products continuously reiterate themselves for accessibility purposes. This supersedes earlier regulation, which allowed human-facing software products to not continuously reiterate themselves for accessibility purposes if the user verbally requests the human-facing software products to not continuously reiterate themselves for accessibility purposes.

God knows why they decided that this particular EU law is the one they would actually follow.

It’s a really weird name for a product. A crowd strike sounds like a terrorist tactic, not something that brings “security” to mind.

This quote got me rent free. If I break a law I don’t like for a couple of years, do I also get another year to “promise” to stop breaking it in the future?

Takes me much less than a year to promise to do anything.

Sure, but this isn’t about making copyright stricter, but just making it explicit that the existing law applies to AI tech.

I’m very critical of copyright law, but letting specifically big tech pretend like they’re not distributing derivative work because it’s derived from billions of works on the internet is not the gateway to copyright abolition I’d hope to see.

I like that the author decided to honor the request to not publish the Thai dad’s skin, even though technically it wasn’t directed to him. Little moments of people being respectful on the internet feel so refreshing nowadays.

Dear Santa, please let OpenAI double its net profits.
