I had someone recommend Rivers of London as an alternative magic learning protag series, and I’m enjoying it, but it’s more noir detective than Harry Potter. Which works in its favor IMO.

Yeah, humans will cite real studies that don’t say what they claim (either from malice or misunderstanding) or just vaguely say ‘studies say’, not pull an entire citation out of the air.

I’m leaning towards making it illegal to use AI (generative LLM) in government work. All it can do is mislead and introduce errors.

They’ve been lying about the reason the whole time. They don’t give a fuck how tested it is or what the results are, they want it off the market for ideological reasons. Right wing crunchy fash might honest to god be worse than the Evangelicals.

I imagine a solution could be the same one from Web 1.0: webrings. Find one site on one and you’ve found a lot more interesting, curated ones as well.

Thanks for admitting you read nothing but the headline.

I do love a bussy that’s not hiding anything

If you haven’t already, investing in HEPA filtration is a good idea. Vacuuming and dusting is also supposed to help, I regret to report.

It’s a great sign when you have to trick your users into using the AI, right?

Ah, it’s a use for stock they can’t load off on anyone else. Now it makes sense.

I can smell this image, lol. Hope you didn’t get peed on!

The ‘please don’t spray paint my car’ label.

Not saying I don’t turn my nose up at regular Teslas, but it’s the Cyberfuck owners that have my real contempt. You’re choosing to continue driving that thing around.

 
 

Losing a home in a wildfire is devastating and navigating the insurance process can feel overwhelming. In this workshop, the Financial Planning Association of Los Angeles will help homeowners and renters affected by the Palisades and Eaton Fires better understand their insurance policies, rights, and options for recovery. The workshop will also discuss steps to document losses and file a claim, what to do if you are denied coverage or underpaid, and additional financial and legal resources for fire-affected families.

The stream starts at 12 pm PST.

 
 
 
 

My first attempt doesn’t look as nice, since I was trying to sew down the last loops of the warp one at a time instead of taking them all off the hooks at once and then sewing them down.

I think this one turned out alright, though! I just used some variegated craft thread that looked about the same size as pearl thread, but was cheaper and came in a variety pack.

Trans Rights are under assault all across the United States as the new administration continues a brutal project of oppression, exclusion, and denial of care to people everywhere.

Distribute Aid is developing a network of supply chains, medical aid, distribution partners and kit development across 11 states that aims to provide direct care and medical support to thousands of trans people, with the goal of scaling up to cover the rest of the country during 2025.

100% of the proceeds of this bundle go directly toward Distribute Aid's efforts to supply kits of 1 year's necessary medical equipment into the hands of trans people in needs for free.

Each kit comes with a sharps container and enough syringes, needles, bandages, and alcohol wipes to last a year. For people living in states where it’s difficult to access syringes and needles, this will help reduce needle reusing and sharing.

If you aren’t interested in the games and prefer to donate to the campaign directly, you can do that here.

The checklist with all time high counts for six species is absolutely nuts!
