i would very much not mind a good remake of Dragonslayer (1981). Such a good flick but the effects are so dated

look man I hear you, but if LLMs were sentient, the French would have a law that lets them take breaks, OK?
also godDAMN does GH suck now
not that Bezos needs any more of our money but if your boss is paying for it, the Code* stack on AWS is not half bad as a forge

French prosecutors seek charges against Elon Musk and X over sexual abuse images
French prosecutors are seeking charges against Elon Musk and X for child sexual images on the platform, deepfakes, disinformation and complicity in denying crimes against humanity by Grok. The Paris public prosecutor’s office said Wednesday it has opened an investigation into X on charges including complicity in possessing and distributing child sexual abuse images, unlawfully collecting personal data and without ensuring data security. Other potential charges include disseminating non-consensual images or other content and denial of crimes against humanity by the platform’s AI system, Grok.

Sorry Peter. — I'm at a birthday party, and while most people here also work in tech, there's always a Guy with a Real Job. You know, a physical job, building some or other thing people need. And this Guy always asks some variant of the same question: aren't you worried AI is taking your job? I glance around and see a few faces turning around toward us, rolling their eyes ever so slightly before returning to their previous conversation. Yes, this question again.
look I am not a Biblical scholar but what I do know is that the Old Testament had some pretty clear rules about golden idols, and it wasn't "hell yeah let's have a lot of them"
truly amazing how many of my peers effectively forgot what the IE6 monoculture was like, how fucking terrible it was to be on the internet-at-large. How do you not only forget, but look at the Chrome monoculture and just shrug? Bc it's less horrible than IE?
i've been saying for a while now that if you have a tesla*, you're maga. you're a fascist. but now it's just ... sad. it's sad how you think this man is great in any capacity. it's sad that you can't see through a smokescreen so thin.
* exceptions for the effort required to unload an object of that scale. no one's perfect.
it's absolutely amazing to me that every time musk shows his cards, that he's an intense and unbelievable freak - it just makes everyone double-down more. Dude's using him mom as his alt, and once again is so bad at using his own technology he got caught. excellent gambit, sir
