I'm just learning as I go.

Screenshot from the article, showing the headline as well as this following quote that somebody apparently got arrested over: “I don’t know which one of you sons of b—-es passed this motherf—ing bill to get this damn s— blocking my motherf—ing anime, but you whole a– motherf—ers need to unpass this s—. Y’all are f—ing ridiculous with your b—- a–es. My Google account says I’m f—ing over the age of 18, and your dumba– is passing these dumba– laws. I’m a f—ing stab every godd— one of you b—-es. Unlock my f—ing anime.”

Screenshot of the earlier link, a suggestion post reading: Make all AI features optional, and opt-out by default. For any features on Twitch which use AI, allow all creators to opt in or opt out of them individually, and set the default to Opt Out for all new AI features. We as creators should have the choice whether to use AI or not on our channels. If we do not want to use it at all, it's important for us to be able to have that choice, AND for us not to be opted in by default. https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/923383-creators-and-stream-features/suggestions/51352369-make-all-ai-features-optional-and-opt-out-by-defa

Another screenshot from the article: "Games, or any media really, are as much about what’s not included as they are what is. Crowbarring more in haphazardly has never been the way that games are successful, because more isn’t always better. If you want mundane “more”, the real world is right there. So yes, NVIDIA has a fancy tech demo set in a Cyber-renaissance style that evokes Deus Ex, but what about it is meaningfully better for our players than Deus Ex? What’s the “couldn’t be done without GenAI” aspect that’s core to the gameplay experience?"
Screenshot of a paragraph from the article: "It’s exceptionally weird to me that a couple of companies have managed to ignite a culture war and bring the economy to the brink of collapse off the back of a handful of marginally interesting algorithms, but that’s pretty much what’s happened and I think it’s the biggest factor here in why we’ve had this shift from kind of subtle behind the scenes AI to aggressively in your face AI over the past couple of years."
Screenshot of the rebskeeted article, with a section mentioning that this ban applies to any future imported robots (not already approved ones) that "travels over the ground, weighs more than 4.4 pounds (including any dock), can perceive its environment, and has wireless connectivity". The article continues, "By that definition, the FCC is banning future robot lawnmowers, sidewalk delivery robots, and the robots that crate around packages at your local Amazon warehouse."
Screenshot of this article: https://arstechnica.com/security/2026/07/jfrog-tries-to-spin-openai-0-day-exploit-of-its-app-into-a-success-story/ Headline: "We now have a better understanding of how OpenAI hacked into Hugging Face"

Highlighted portion from a 2023 paper: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s41235-023-00499-6 - a study regarding human vs. "AI" (stable diffusion generative ML model) authorship concluded that "stories serve as an engine for general art judgement".

Screenshot of https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2232 - linked in the article. Section (a) mentions "Destruction or Removal of Property To Prevent Seizure", apparently what the guy in the article is charged with violating, having allegedly impeded a seizure of property. However, where section (d) mentions "Notice of Certain Electronic Surveillance" and the impedance of surveillance, section (e) specifically clarifies about foreign electronic surveillance.
Screenshot of the article in question, highlighting the portion where the CBP claims the guy in question "had not yet crossed the U.S. border" as justification for their search and seizure. Even though the incident occurred at an Atlanta airport.

Screenshot of the reposted bskeet, in which @skullcat3d.bsky.social, a seemingly legitimate 3D artist account until yesterday, posts an LLM-generated plea at me to donate to a chuffed.org campaign claiming to send funds to a family in Gaza.
Captcha says "Select all images with a bus". I have selected the images with a bus. The captcha says in red text after I tried to submit, "Please select all matching images". This is after like 6 previous captchas of selecting grid squares with traffic lights and shit in them.
Screenshot of an email I received from noreply@policy.redditmail.com claiming that users in the EU will need to verify their age, or else "be switched to the most protective, private experience" including forcibly disabling chat (direct messages), followers, and profile discoverability, and limiting visibility of content marked NSFW. (On reddit, moderators of individual subs generally control what is marked NSFW or not. Also, Reddit moderators are famously toxic and willing to abuse any power afforded to them.) The email claims that this started on 24 June 2026, a week before I received the email.
Screenshot of subscription cancellation page, where I have just managed to cancel the plan before they charge me for the next billing cycle with a more than doubled price for no reason. There is an upselling popup offering a 40% discount on the more-than-doubled price they were about to start billing me with extremely little notice
Screenshot of an email in which Evernote claims there are "some upcoming changes to your subscription" and "Your Evernote Personal account will transition to the Evernote Advanced plan on July 25, 2026 [same day the email was received] at a price of USD 249.99 per year [more than twice the current cost]."
Screenshot of comments from the linked reddit thread: > I cannot remember the edition or the source material, but I distinctly remember reading that a druid is essentially sterile while in any wild shaped form. > I like this rule. It stops people from asking questions like this. > So I can fuck like a bull and I don't need protection? And here I thought bard was the best sexventurer > This is the wrong way to interpret this information

Screenshot of a lowpoly character model in Blender. It's a buff shirtless anthro capybara wearing golden yellow pants and armbands. I made this a little bit ago while messing around with a 3D platformer project that never went anywhere in particular
A photo taken from the linked page. It shows a wall and small tower thing, built with clinker bricks, of inconsistent shapes and sizes and somewhat varying colors. The masonry is extremely irregular and frankly chaotic.
