@emilymbender the totally hypothetical & completely unspecified potential.

@emilymbender i listened to NPR this morning talking about the Olympics using AI and they didn't address any negatives to it.

@douglasvb they’re gorgeous

@douglasvb Cats are generally always plotting, whether it be mischief or murder. These two definitely having something cooking though. Winston in particular looks like he's straining to hide his contempt. Maybe sleep with one eye open this week?

@bagder always thought that when apps demanded access to the microphone to work, or demanded location, there should be a "yes but send fake data" option. The OS/browser/whatever should be on my side there. If the webpage coordinates so heavily with third party ad networks that the page won't load without ad metrics, then be on my fucking side here and send fake data. Spam the spammers. Is that so wrong?

@bagder Said it before; a lot of the time pages I like ask me to disable my adblocker.

I do so, but then the page still don't recognize that the adblocker is off as long as you still block trackers.

So then I enable my adblocker again, because fuck them.

@brooke I bet they have a lot to say
qwq1wqw111wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww;[[]]\\

@brooke omg you're so right

@Gargron
In the first one very good lighting design. Did you have a light bouncing screen in front of her?

@Gargron So beautiful and wonderful image girl.. !

@Gargron Didn't think you posted this kind of content...

@toxo77 😂

@stevesilberman

#MAGA MACHINE is the #Project2025 #heritagefoundation BS plan to... (see image)

"In practice, Schedule F could easily purge qualified subject experts from advisory positions at the first sign of disobedience and turn federal agencies into ultra-partisan arms of the Heritage Foundation's mission."

@stevesilberman

Project 2025 has nothing to do with Trump

Maybe you should read the 900 page document and understand what it is.

If you want to understand Trump maybe you should read FW Buckley or the RNC Plarform

Project 2025 is a media smokescreen so you won’t read the RNC Platform

Can’t wait for the DNC Platform

@stevesilberman This is a bit atypical for People, no? What’s the backstory on this?

@jeffowski Exactly

@jeffowski AI is just another tool to make users lazier

@jeffowski Well, yeah. That's the whole point of software since "Expert Systems;" to crystallize expertise, alienating it from experts. Then the experts can retire, and the next generation can develop novel expertise.

Why, has something gone wrong?

@samhenrigold @Gargron
And Richard becomes a Dick.

@samhenrigold don't forget the Rics 👋

Awwww

@Gargron film photography still looks really good to this day.

@Gargron 40 years ago I had a Pentax MX with an f1.4 50mm lens

Ahh...memories

@samhenrigold that’s nothing, how about this desperate begging: “Your Dopbox still exits, look into your files today”

@samhenrigold I would love to ditch it in favour of a functioning #taler wallet and economy. Not there yet unfortunately.

@samhenrigold that is a trophy, right there

@LoganFive come september

@LoganFive I'd prefer a people filter.

@LoganFive I feel like there should be a Fifth Element joke in there somewhere. 😉

@alice I assume the international space station was overhead by the look on her face?

@christianselig When you get to work you’ll remember what happened.

@christianselig there are very well put together YouTube videos explaining what all happened.

@christianselig *JANUARY 2025*!!!!! ARGH!!! 🤬
