Testing suggests Google’s AI Overviews tells millions of lies per hour:
Automated systems that tell lies, based on a core lie that #TechBros have told themselves and are forcing on humanity; that their wealth and power means they can do no wrong. We will all suffer for it. #ai #tech #crapitalism
I think the thing I hate most about #CNN of late is #ScottJennings, but even more so the stupid jokes the anchors engage in with a person who is getting paid to actively feed propaganda to the people of #America. #MSM #journalism #fascism #gaslighting #TFG #uspol
Here. Have some #BetteMidler and let’s sing this at the #NoKings rallies. Catchy tune! #activism #uspol #midterms #progressivewave youtu.be/U5VXwncNv…
Elon Musk insists banks working on SpaceX IPO must buy Grok subscriptions:
Not just banks, but any firm working on the IPO… and they’re doing it!!?? Spreading the Mecha #Hitler/#CSAM disease. This’ll be fine. Everything’s fine. 🤨 #musk #spacex #aislop #grok #racism #idiocracy #crapitalism
California considering a first of its kind idea to boost factory-built housing:
Interesting. #California is considering getting into the factory home #construction #insurance business (built off-site and trucked in). Interesting doesn’t mean they’ll do it, though. #housing #realestate
Live #music comes in many forms, and one I love a great deal is in the studio with a live audience. Check out The #Heavytones at #LittleBigBeat Studios for some super funky #ProgressiveJazz for a couple hours of jams. #LiveMusic #jazz youtu.be/-fiqUHnrw…
“All of Humanity’s Problems Stem From Marc Andreessen’s Inability to Sit Quietly in a Room Alone”:
This is #Objectivism at work. Ayn Rand would be proud… if she weren’t long dead. I’m guessing Andreessen’s never played Bioshock… or paid any attention to reality. #crapitalism #finance
New #VideoGame trailer for Artificial Detective. Just the visuals alone really pump me up. No release date yet, but it’s coming out for #PS5 (nobody cares), Xbox X/S (even less than nobody cares), and #Steam! Hell yeah! Wishlisting it :) youtu.be/Rzq05eE10…
Sylvain Chomet’s ‘A Magnificent Life’: Animation More Real Than Reality:
The Triplets of Belleville is one of favorite films. I’m looking forward to this. It premiers on limited screens tomorrow. #animation #movies
I’m super hyped for this new entry into the burgeoning #animation market. #Dreamworks new film, coming September 2026, is titled #ForgottenIsland, and it looks and #SimpleMinds amazing “Don’t You (Forget About Me)” is clearly pivotal to the story. #movies youtu.be/a8RHqN93q…
In with a bang, out in silence – the end of the Mac Pro:
This is hardly surprising, considering that there’s very little in the way of compatible cards and the damned thing is eye-wateringly expensive. Still, kind of sad to see it go. #apple #macpro #technology
If you are a fan of #anime, then you’re likely familiar with #CowboyBebop and, by extension, one of the single most iconic themes in history, #TANK by The Seatbelts. Well, this is my new favorite version of all time and they are touring the US starting in #NYC in April. #jazz youtu.be/d75ov4HvR…
Apple begins age checks in the UK with latest iOS update: nice way to roll over there, Tim. This is on the shoulders of #socialmedia, not platforms. Great job, #Apple 🤨 #UK #crapitalism
Meta loses trial after arguing child exploitation was “inevitable” on its apps: I’m glad but I have no words, much less sarcasm. Disgusting. #facebook #crapitalism #socialmedia
Gross. #Trump is a criminal. Just because he’s the “president” doesn’t mean he’s suddenly grown a pair of ethics. Dear Leader’s obsequious, apologist lapdogs hide everything behind a thin veil of stolen legitimacy as they siphon assets from the biggest mark in history; the US. #uspol #insidertrading www.axios.com/newslette…
#Nintendo is reportedly preparing a version of the #Switch2 for the EU to comply with right-to-repair regulations that require user-replaceable batteries, but not for the rest of the world. They rather lose money than admit defeat. Sad. #videogames www.engadget.com/gaming/ni…
Well, this is distressing. No, it’s not law yet, but with the corruption running rampant in #USPol and #SCOTUS’s willingness to bend legal definitions beyond the breaking point, I don’t doubt this is on it’s way. Get yourself an #opensource capable router for your home ASAP. #technology #opsec youtu.be/04oL0qVSW…
GEEKOM GeekBook X14 Pro Review: 2.2 pound laptop from a mini PC maker:
For twice the price of an #Apple #MacBookNeo, you can get a very average laptop from an untested maker that comes with Windows 11 Sloppy Edition and 32GBs of RAM, which you’ll need to run Windows. #tech #geekom
Disney Drops ‘Moana’ Live-Action Official Trailer:
Oh FFS. Please stop. No more. And stop going to see these “movies”, people! If they tank at the box-office, then they might go back to making animated films instead of regurgitating films they already made. #film #movies #disney #liveactionremakes
So, so gross. At least these creeps aren’t afraid to broadcast how slimy they are so we can easily identify them to avoid. #crapitalism #gambling #videogames
I won’t lie, I adore #LAIKA Studios to pieces. They share my top spot for best ever studio with #Ghibli. The craft is the heart and soul of both of these greats, and not just in #animation. I am extremely excited for the upcoming #Wildwood movie and love seeing their behind-the-scenes clips. youtu.be/nKV_Nc2bf…
If you’d like to get a chip-level explanation of the A18 Pro in the #MacBookNeo I think this video can help, and it’s not too technical. There’s also a comparison to the M4 chip. Really cool stuff, and shows how much further ahead #Apple is. #technology youtu.be/fTBvm4Hj7…
Hey, #Apple. Two-finger swipe to go back in Apple #Music presents far too much resistance and is far too inconsistent. Please fix this. It’s annoying and shouldn’t be a thing in 2026. #MagicTrackpad
This is a rather fascinating dive into the history of the ‘Itome’ or closed-eye #anime character that includes a brief sketch of the history of anime itself. In an aside, some peeps complain that it’s “AI slop”, but some people don’t want to face reveal, so there’s that. #animation youtu.be/2xrYxlimI…
