Twitter is TESCREAL social media (for obvious reasons), which helps me see their talking points

1. Anyone pushing "stochastic parrots framing" shouldn't be taken seriously.

2. People "denying" the machine god narrative, like me, are akin to anti-vaxxers & climate deniers.

These are things they're saying to the left politicians they've captured, like Bernie Sanders who's being advised on "AI" by eugenicist doomsday cult leaders.

I wish we really were in a simulation like this people say 🙄

AND NORMIE LIBS ARE DOING NOTHING TO STOP IT. That's what's blowing my mind. The lies that are echoing in France are *identical* to the lies that gave Britain a decade of misery. All that's missing is a red bus with lies on! And all the while, as billionaire money floods the zone to ward off the end of upward wealth redistribution, "consultants" to the in-power normies are whispering that it's going to be "fine". It's not! Look at the US! It's not fine!

I can't keep the phrase "Putin expects a Europe of Trumps this time next year" out of my head. Can't remember who said it, but when we peel it all back and the history is written, I will not be surprised if a decent chunk of the overall arc has been bent by the Kremlin's petro/klepto/mafioso state.

Something a bit different today: I've written a book! It's nothing to do with the Fediverse, but the money from it keeps my Fedi accounts and sites going.

It's about real life mysteries (so no UFOs, no ghosts, no conspiracies etc). The book is DRM-free, price is "Pay what you want, min. 1 euro":

➡️ https://payhip.com/b/EhfU2

You don't need an account to buy!

The book is 100% human-made, no AI of any kind.

(If you need a free open eBook reader app try Readest. The book also works with eReaders.)

It infuriates me that from now until the end of fucking time, when an artist turns in a piece of amazing artwork for a book cover, some flatulating midwit will look at it and say "oh, that's just AI."

Between this, Burnham's failure to back funding caps, Musk's interventions, and the terrible outlook for France and Germany right now, I don't think anything can shake normie libs out of the notion that money in politics is fine-ish (maybe? they're not sure).

If this is in the description of your pull request, it’s unlikely to get any time spent on it.

What makes me furious is that certain peeps acknowledge AI's catastrophic effects on software & web dev education, documentation, learning and express compassion with those whose livelihood is threatened – just to advice ”adapt”, “come to terms with it” and state “you get used to it”, “you'll find a new role [like cleaning up slop]”, “you cannot expect the field not to change”.

Which is in essence the same as “jump on the AI train or perish”. You're merely turning the knife in the wound.

I want people to understand, more than anything, that they can create something like this themselves.

I took the hard work of others and merely compiled it. I spent a couple hours writing some CSS styles and Markdown that I turned into HTML with a converter.

Then I uploaded the single `index.html` file to Neocities. That's it. Ctrl+S will give you the entire thing.

You can figure out how to do this for any important topic in your life. Or just anything you want to share with the world. Anybody can do this.

​:neofox:​ I heard of a genius plan of just inviting a friend over to hang out while you clean. They don't even need to help you, just being around and chatting while you do the cleaning already massively helps make the process better
