  • Seems AI generated and very basic. Barely a game

  • Taylor Swift Fans Are Leaving X for Bluesky After Trump’s Election
  • Generalizations aren't productive

  • Striking New York Times tech workers ask people not to play Wordle or other NYT games
  • Only if it increased by a very large margin like a DDoS attack

  • Google Wallet is coming to your kids' phones in 2025
  • For a good laugh and/or headache check out Google's history of "wallet" offerings listed on Wikipedia

  • Carl Pei says Nothing could build its own operating system | TechCrunch
  • This is the same guy who started a remote company then tried to pull a "return to office" move on his employees without much notice. I highly doubt they could build their own OS given their poor management record

  • Humane slashes the price of its AI Pin after weak sales
  • The sell is a screenless phone with an AI assistant

  • I Quit Teaching Because of ChatGPT
  • I think you might be onto something. A research paper or thesis, when boiled down, is just a product. How the product is made is difficult to determine, and there's an inherent incentive to make it the best product by any and all means. But if it were instead a process that was facilitated and had to be done in-person, that can be controlled more tightly

  • Eric Schmidt: ‘We’re not going to hit the climate goals. I’d rather bet on AI solving the problem.’ With "alien intelligence"!
  • That's exactly right. Even if we made an AI that could give us the perfect solution and had accurate projections to back up its assertions, inevitably we'd reject it because we wouldn't trust it fully. It cannot fix the often selfish nature of humans

  • Inside CNN's New Comedy Quiz Show. Yes, You Read That Right
  • Choosing Michael Ian Black for this is... a choice. Seems like he's been losing fans left and right over the years with his aggressive political brigades on Twitter

  • Hungary PM Orbán's Roman Catholic 'star priest', a flag-bearer of political Christianity who has frequently been slamming the LGBTQ community, is reportedly gay
  • Many Catholic priests are gay, and it's sort of incentivized. Their view is that being gay doesn't inherently mean you're a bad person or going to hell. However, acting on gay sexual urges is a sin. So becoming a priest and being celibate is a convenient out. Also there's a priest shortage, so turning a blind eye is likely common

  • Google posts Pixel 9, 9 Pro, 9 Pro XL, and 9 Pro Fold repair manuals
  • JerryRigEverything said is his recent teardown review that Pixel repairability has gotten particularly worse on the 9. Sounded like the battery was very difficult to remove

  • Anyone know of any good SMS/MMS/RCS clients
  • ^~ bat signal for Lina Khan ~^

    Honestly can't believe Google was so explicit in calling RCS an "open standard" and then turning around and doing this

  • Trump Tells Christians They Won't Have to Vote in Future: 'We'll Have It Fixed'
  • In that video it sure sounds like he says "I love you Christians, I'm not Christian"

  • Alexa had “no profit timeline,” cost Amazon $25 billion in 4 years
  • Well, sure, but I'm sure most coal miners don't feel super great about their specific job and profession generally. It's a waste of resources and capital generally, not at a zoomed in level

  • Biden endorses Harris as Democratic nominee after ending his candidacy
  • I don't think anyone cares if the VP is "too old" honestly. Most of the time it feels like the VP does things in the background and makes far less headlines. Case in point: Kamala Harris

  • Obama tells allies Biden’s path to winning reelection has greatly diminished
  • That's how culture and news works generally. There's no stopping it really

  • 2 in 3 Democrats Want Biden to Withdraw, Poll Finds as Key Deadlines Draw Near
  • Maybe this will save someone a click. Here's the original source and here's the full breakdown...

    Honestly the 77% of independents strikes me as more important.
