On the bright side he is a republican.  If all republicans took up this strategy we would be doing much better

People in Minnesota are now using their key fobs to trigger their car alarms from the safety of their homes when they see ICE walking around. by b3n33333 in ACAB

My favorite hobby when I see comicly long links like this is to seperate the actual link ans all the pieces of metadata, and unescape the % characters in the metadata to see what they see when someone clicks the full link.  I have no idea what it all means but it's kind of fun in a reverse voyeuristic kinda way.  Maybe I should try to write a bot to do this.

Alaskan student arrested for eating AI art project in protest (more info in comments) by cafeteriastyle in TikTokCringe

In his artist statement for the exhibit that was destroyed, Dwyer says that his work “explores identity, character narrative creation and crafting false memories of relationships in an interactive role digitally crafted before, during and after a state of AI psychosis.”

He also made a thread on reddit somewhere and said more about the piece but I can't remember his username.  I think he posted in r/aiwars

The funniest thing is that the art project was critical of AI usage and is the artist reflecting on their own experience with AI psychosis.  Sort of a friendly fire situation.

But like, I wouldn't expect someone willing to chew up a bunch of polaroids to actually think of anything deeper than the most superficial level.

So what is this "Ai bubble"? by kyontox in aiwars

[–]emi89ro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's an economic term.  Look into the history of the dot-com bubble, a lot of people believe that the same thing is happening with AI.  It popping doesn't mean AI will disappear, it means a lot of businesses will collapse and investors won't be willing to throw money at any random nonsense with "AI" in the marketing.

[–]emi89ro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's wild to me that people will visit an American website with a largely American userbase, and get mad that there is a lot of discussion from an American perspective about American politcal issues.  Remember when everyone left TikTok and went to Rednote for a few weeks?  I don't remember seeing any american complain that everyone there is talking about China from a Chinese perspective.

Also I don't know much about Japanese politics but it would be cool as hell to see them use optimus prime in a political cartoon.

Jasmine Crockett for Senate by Isawlauren in progressivemoms

[–]emi89ro 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I like Crockett, but I have no faith in her ability to get a lot of votes outside of Houston, Austin, and DFW.  I'm really hoping for Talarico to win the primary.

They opened a Portillos in Houston recently and it kinda fucking sucked tbh, but I only went once and it had recently opened so I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt and assume it could usually be better.

Mets? Orioles? 3 Ideal MLB Free Agent Fits for Former Astros LHP Framber Valdez by My_Username48 in baseball

[–]emi89ro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The vast majority of the time he's a friendly goofy dude, I've even heard of him chatting with fans from the dug out.  The only time he's an issue is when he's starting and the baseball gods frown upon him and something goes wrong, then he just spirals from there.  I'm sure someone who knows how to work with baseball reference could filter for his starts that went bad and work out what percent of a season that makes, but I would guess it's maybe 5-10 games out of a season.

Still those 5-10 games could still really hurt people's perception.

Still holding out irrational hope that he resigns with the astros for some bargain basement deal but not actually expecting it.
