I never thought I would be siding with the pope’s involvement in politics and cheering him on. I will say that.

The copilot product placement in High Potential was so obnoxious and in your face like oh my god just have to take a minute break from the tv show you’re watching to say we’re in an ad right now

[roguecompanion1812]

The whole scene brought the episode to a screeching halt for like 5 minutes. It was so out of place and poorly written.

“Tumblr age verification will not be needed,” tumblr staff stated upon confirming every single blog on the site is more than 10 years old.

“If you were literate enough to be posting about Johnlock in 2015 we can kind of just assume you’re good,” staff elaborated even though we did not ask them to.

Haladriel fanfic

[lilatara]

“She gave everything she had, she gave more”

A thing I feel like I constantly forget is that Sheryl Lee had to film the murders of TWO women in some of the most visceral and brutal death scenes imaginable. And shoot them more than once.

In my mind, I often think of Maddy as so separate from Laura, but Sheryl had to act out BOTH those murders. Multiple times.

She shot Maddy's death scene three times with three different actors.

And this was AFTER she had to film Laura's death scene for the tv show in Ronette's flashback.

Then, she had to film probably the most elaborate and extended, literally operatic, version of Laura's death for Fire Walk With Me. Acting out a murder she probably felt like she'd lived through a half dozen times, for literally years by then.

[palis-delon]

The big problem being an old fan girl... I have read some amazing stories over the last 23 years and every so often an old favorite springs to mind and it's a three day search trying to find it (and you aren't always successful).

[roguecompanion1812]

💯 a problem and when your interests span several fandom and ships and can take ages. And sometimes old go to websites for fics are just completely lost to time….

[beesmygod]

ed zitron, a tech beat reporter, wrote an article about a recent paper that came out from goldman-sachs calling AI, in nicer terms, a grift. it is a really interesting article; hearing criticism from people who are not ignorant of the tech and have no reason to mince words is refreshing. it also brings up points and asks the right questions:

if AI is going to be a trillion dollar investment, what trillion dollar problem is it solving?

what does it mean when people say that AI will "get better"? what does that look like and how would it even be achieved? the article makes a point to debunk talking points about how all tech is misunderstood at first by pointing out that the tech it gets compared to the most, the internet and smartphones, were both created over the course of decades with roadmaps and clear goals. AI does not have this.

the american power grid straight up cannot handle the load required to run AI because it has not been meaningfully developed in decades. how are they going to overcome this hurdle (they aren't)?

people who are losing their jobs to this tech aren't being "replaced". they're just getting a taste of how little their managers care about their craft and how little they think of their consumer base. ai is not capable of replacing humans and there's no indication they ever will because...

all of these models use the same training data so now they're all giving the same wrong answers in the same voice. without massive and i mean EXPONENTIALLY MASSIVE troves of data to work with, they are pretty much as a standstill for any innovation they're imagining in their heads

I didn't know this was a thing, and I went to wikipedia to learn more, and learned the funniest possible thing I could learn about them.

New Jersey has never adopted a state song. A resolution to declare the song "Born to Run" by Bruce Springsteen as the state song passed the Assembly, but failed the state Senate as the song's lyrics depict a desire to leave New Jersey.

[kasadilla11]

This is possibly the most New Jersey thing I've ever heard 😂

[roguecompanion1812]

So in my elementary school we had a whole semester devoted to Colorado history in 4th grade that culminated in Colorado History Week. We learned all about the state moto, state flower, the seal of Colorado. But if we have a state song, they did not teach us that.

[persisting]

my favorite part of this is the dichotomy of queerness as understood by certain cultures in the comments at the end; i.e., “it’s all women so it’s definitely pure and not gross and sexual!” right next to “FUCK IM SO GAY FOR THIS”

This scene is exactly what I thought of when I saw this message last night.

[rockpapertheodore]

You ever think about how we call toddlers that because they can't walk right. They toddle about. Fuckin idiots. Fuckin idiot steppers can't walk properly. Call 'em wobblers. This is my son Jeffrey he's at the age where I mock him for walking like a fucking scrub. "Skill issue" ass name.

having a freeze response to stress is so funny in the context of normal adult stressors. millions of years of evolution are trying to tell me that the email will not find me if i stay very still and do nothing
