Where The Fun IS
My friend Gerard working at Burning Man this year... he's sent some incredible photos of the builds... and been setting up everything for some Silicon Valley elites who have so much money they don't even know how to eat normal food at an event in the middle of nowhere.

Artificial Intelligence
One thing people always seem to overlook is that in a world where superintelligent AI is capable of threatening humanity, we would almost certainly have other superintelligent AI systems to defend with.
Let's say the evil AI somehow designs a virus to kill humans with its intelligent superpowers. It's unclear why there wouldn't be the ability to create a vaccine or other anti-virus tech using the same technology. Unless the AIs all turn against us at once (unlikely), we'll probably be OK.

At this point they can just kill me first and make it quick.
The idea that everyone's excited about outsourcing human cognition, draining all the water from the planet and rendering humanity dependent on machines in this way is really depressing. We all know there will be few winners and many MANY losers.
The fact that the president of the united states is sharing bullshit slop just shows how much civilization deserves to be wiped out.

I watched a thing earlier which compared the tokenisation of thought in terms of human cognition and current AI models against some chip that ran an order of magnitude or more above both and.. I was like 'where the fuck are we going with this?'.In response, my kid's school has some event on soon and it was advertised with the crappiest of homemade, DIY flyers - possibly made in MS Paint - and I felt relieved and reassured by it. I almost commmented positively as such on the parental Whatsapp group, but as it is not QBN, I didn't as I didn't want to come across like an absolute twat (you here get that luxury).
Comments above and generally around seem to point to there being a general backlash against that sort of thing.
Humans are contrarian cunts.
This alone give me hope.
But then so, the flipside (reference to [old] UK folk follows..)
- Tripods FTWContinuity
- Laterally, I think this is one of the reasons I liked HL2, with its (terrifying and possibly unintentional) nod to these.Continuity
- Who woulda thunk that we would end up in a timeline where using MS Paint is a sign of virtue and Microsoft is a tool of the resistance.palimpsest

blog
Two things i've noticed today:
• Emergency calls (999 here in the UK) don't appear in your call history. I understand why, I just didn't realise. Annoying here, as I wanted the timestamp for when I did so last night, but I get it.
• I somehow fucked up and had my secondary SIM off - the one that has my unlimited data rate, so my data stopped on my main work SIM which isn't unlimited and I was like wtf?. Oh. D'oh. Changing the SIM to that which I typically use has entirely changed the contents of my Facebook feed. The last week or so has had ... a lot of stuff I'd rather not have had in my feed.
That's it. As you were.

- I just use it to keep tabs on my hometown, but yeah. I've only used it for the last couple of year after thinking I'd closed my account back in 2012 or so :/Nairn

- Why’d you call 999, Nairn?
Why do you have a Facebook account, Nairn?
Are you okay, Nairn?Ianbolton - hahaha!
re: FB, maybe not.

Sexual Harassment of the DAY
Jim Thornton, announcer known best for the American version of Wheel of Fortune from 2011, also played Johnny Gomez in the revival of Celebrity Deathmatch 2006-7, and was in Monsters Inc. has been caught on a plane in a chatroom for paedophiles, and thus suspended from all his plum roles.
The thing is, the worst comments cited, about the Golden Corral buffet are sent by NicholasB77
Which if you look at the other photos, is clearly him, as you can see stuff in the send field that ends up under the name.
