  • Futurama has accidentally become a fascinating document of social change
  • I just recently started rewatching and I was amused by the “gender neutral pac-person” arcade cabinet in the first season, a gag that became even more topical over time.

  • Thousands of authors demand payment from AI companies for use of copyrighted works
  • Covered under copyright != how easy it would be to claim damages.

    Ok so this is the point I’m trying to understand. If there is no recourse for someone to claim damages, in this case as internet comments because otherwise everyone would be claiming damages any time someone ever copied the text of their original comment, then what would even be the point of listing it as something that “cannot be copyrighted”? It’s like saying, well, the text on this post -it note is copyrighted because “text on post-it notes” isn’t listed specifically as works that cannot be copyrighted.

  • Thousands of authors demand payment from AI companies for use of copyrighted works
  • Then why post a link dealing specifically with twitters terms of use agreement? There is nothing copywritten about this comment. Anyone can copy and paste this without attributing me and there is no recourse for me. If someone copy and pastes a published book, they can sue. How can they possibly be the same thing..?

  • Thousands of authors demand payment from AI companies for use of copyrighted works
  • This may come as a surprise to you but there are internet comments outside of twitter that aren’t protected by twitter rules.

    Also you can’t copy the idea of a book and reword it. Which you can do with a tweet.

  • Thousands of authors demand payment from AI companies for use of copyrighted works
  • No dude you don’t understand. A copyrighted book is the same as an internet comment.

  • Spotify now has 220 million paying subscribers
  • Are people really unsubbing over a dollar a month? Seems kinda insignificant if you’re actually using the service.

  • The more they censor, bigger it gets
  • Yea this is pretty cool. I can finally identify stuff I’ve seen on there before but could never figure it out.

  • Elon Musk says Twitter logo to change, birds to be gradually abandoned
  • There’s no empty Trump or DeSantis podiums for them to air I guess

  • Trump classified documents trial in Florida to begin in May 2024
  • I think they’re covering their ass because someone on their team got caught doing the same thing.

  • Blizzard games are coming to Steam
  • “You think you want it but you don’t”

  • Activision Blizzard lays off esports staff as it faces potential dramatic changes for the Overwatch League
  • I’m thinking they killed overwatch just as an excuse to lay more people off.

  • I prefer bean pc
  • You’d think they would have done r&d on how to make them look less nasty when the underpaid staff don’t clean it. But no they all look horrible

  • The CUBE PUBE...?
  • I hope everyone calls it The Pube

  • Pickleball Is America's Fastest-Growing Sport – But Is It Also The Most Dangerous? Report Shows It Could Cost US $500 Million In Medical Expenses
  • Matthew Lazinski from the University of South Florida School of Physical Therapy & Rehab Sciences, reflecting on the rise in pickleball injuries witnessed in the clinic, emphasizes the potential risks associated with the sport. He asserts that the surge in injuries can be attributed to people embracing an active lifestyle. He said the advantages gained from exercise outweigh the associated costs.

    It’s right there in the article.

  • Americans are ‘hunkering down’ and buying less food as inflation bites, one grocery giant says—instead they’re raiding their freezers
  • Aldi’s decision to change all of the lanes to self checkouts at the stores around me has really turned me off. I thought they would be one of the last bastions against self checkouts. The workers there were well paid and happy. I don’t really know where to shop for groceries with a conscience anymore.

  • So clean
  • A tablespoon of psyllium husk a day will change your fucking life.

  • controller on mobile

    Anyone else start using a controller on mobile yet? It’s a bit of an annoyance because changing the setting completely reloads the game. It also puts you in a weird controller/touch screen hybrid mode.

    In Genshin when you switch to a controller it just flips the interface. Not sure why they couldn’t do that for star rail. Hopefully they add a way to boot into controller mode by default so I don’t have to load the game twice every day.
