Thanks Popeye! I'm sorry you had boat troubles, but you suck!
This US island is home to flora found nowhere else. Now, a #wildfire threatens #extinction: ‘watching with trepidation’
Firefighters are racing to douse flames on #SantaRosa Island as experts express concern for survival of its unique habitat

"A 67-year-old sailor crashed his boat into the rocks on the island’s shore last week, according to the US Coast Guard. The man fired at least two flares in order to catch the attention of passing vessels, prompting speculation that the shots first set the blaze. Coast Guard officers rescued the man, who did not appear to suffer any injuries.
"Footage obtained by SFGate, however, showed a burning sailboat on the shore of Santa Rosa Island – presumably the same boat crashed by the marooned sailor. It was unclear whether the boat exploded on its own or the sailor set fire to it."

Yes yes yes!!! 🙏🏻 I wish I could boost boost boost this multiple times!: “… "asking" the LLM to explain "why" "it" did a thing is thrice-divorced from reality:
“It cannot have a why;
It cannot have a self to have motivations;
And the LLM you ask is not the one that did it, but is a new instance reading from its predecessors notes.
“Treating it as tho it is an entity with continuity of existence is fucking delusional and I am fucking sick of pandering to this horseshit.
Touch some grass and get a fucking therapist.”
What were the motivations of the PERSONS involved in this stupidity and why do so many PEOPLE prefer to argue about the LLM rather than examine the stupidity? (Crudely stated but I hope clear)
Speaking of #CorporateSuckups... Way to NOT get my vote, #JanetMills! 🖕🏼
Janet Mills vetoes #Maine #DataCenter ban
by Ethan Andrews, April 24, 2026
"Gov. Janet Mills on Friday vetoed a bill that would have created a temporary statewide ban on large #DataCenters.
"The bill passed by the Maine Legislature earlier this month would enact an 18-month moratorium on new data centers that use more than 20 #megawatts of power.
"It would have made Maine the first state in the country to enact such a ban on the controversial facilities, which support #CloudComputing and artificial intelligence at the cost of large amounts of electricity and #water."

manifest moronification 🙄🤦♀️
I don't know if you've noticed that in supermarkets now, there are shelves crammed with meh products and others with essential products empty.
I've received reports that retailers are using AI massively to manage stock and replenishment. If it weren't tragic, it would be hilarious.
