As a writer, I believe genAI removes the *joy* from creating art and strangles the introspection and growth it provides.
It's also one of the most environmentally devastating uses of the underlying hardware.

I need a version of this that automatically filters out fediverse posts with substack links, whether custom domain or not

Substack promoted Andrew Tate as their #1 "bestseller" last week. Cool company. Great leadership. So I went ahead and made a browser extension. Kill Yr Substack intercepts every Substack link (even on custom domains) and redirects it to `archive.is`. Substack's numbers go down. You still get to read the thing tho. https://jasoncosper.com/kill-yr-substack/

I haven't really been following what's going on with Palantir, but I'm just gonna go ahead and reiterate my rule "never trust a white man with a manifesto".

@ai6yr @cvvhrn @paul_ipv6 @NilaJones True story, my 17 year old son and his friends were out late on Saturday. So I checked his location and he was in the local industrial park. Turns out one of his friends has a manual transmission and they were all taking turns learning to drive stick in an empty parking lot.

Characters should keep and hold on to some key characteristics as they change in your writing and novel. Helps you hold on to your reader, and your readers hold on to your characters. - Wrtr #AmWriting #AmEditing Writing.

Have you seen John Dies At The End?

Well, if you liked that, there's a movie on YouTube that I think is entirely free. The title is "John Made A Maze" it could have been Mike. But they made a maze. And you should see it if you like off kilter movies and are willing to give B-level movies a chance.

@economics_that_works @davidgerard

For the guy who supposedly figured out the role of energy in the economy, he doesn’t seem to recognize the unsustainability of data centers. They gobble up too much power. They gobble up too much water. They can’t even build the darn things because no energy.

This is in the middle of an oil based economy running out of steam paired with climate change, and everything that means

@[email protected] @angusm They chose it as the thing to name it after — the forward presenting thing. The fact they selected something that literally represented an evil system kind of... tells you a lot.

As the saying goes, when someone tells you what they are, believe them.

EDIT: Haha, they blocked me.

Dude, literally go look up what Palantir is and does. They make cartoon villains look like they have depth in comparison. You *DO* live in hyperreality if you can't accept that...

With Peter Thiel's company Palantir increasingly in the news, a lot of people are still uncertain what the company stands for and what its core values are. Basically, what you need to know is that in "The Lord of the Rings” only three people owned palantíri:

- the Dark Lord Sauron, the epitome of everything evil,
- his almost equally evil lackey Saruman, and
- Denethor, a depressive autocrat who finally ended himself in a failed murder-suicide.

That pretty much tells you what to expect.
