  • It should be illegal to use “AI” like this

    That would require the people trying to pass laws to deregulate AI to stop trying to pass laws to deregulate AI. But no, that’s not what we want. We want more money going to the top while paying fewer people along the way.

    With the way Xitter “reprogrammed” new results from Gr0ck, I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re just copying and pasting from project 2025 and telling whichever LLM to reword everything into legalese so that they can claim ignorance on how their laws are killing their voters.














  • Eh, I didn’t have much else going on and playing Jackbox remotely with my family made me realize how much others were possibly missing out. I don’t even know if or how those computers were used. I just had a lot of time on my hands and an urge to use my then-new drill. Then, I’d move the equipment out before my wife killed me and then let literally anyone else handle the logistics.

    Prior to the pandemic, I’d take 20+ year-old laptops and other equipment to a friend’s ranch and we’d shoot shit. One time, I peppered myself with glass from a CRT after shooting it from a few feet away with a 16 ga.

    I’m not directed by charity, I’m just wildly impulsive and occasionally productive.


  • When quarantines hit and everyone was communicating via zoom, I offered to recycle people’s computers and destroy their old hard drives for free. I’d remove and drill multiple holes through the hard drives, vacuum/dust the computer, install a small, inexpensive HDD, and install Ubuntu.

    Then I’d install zoom and chrome (sorry) and then pair each computer with a wired mouse, keyboard, and webcam that I had laying around in bulk. Then I’d drop these computers off at shelters, elder communities, and religious institutions. Essentially, anywhere you’d find someone who didn’t have the means to contact family, attend an interview, or whatever.

    Recycling/upcycling old computers isn’t just good for the environment and your investment, it’s good for your community!
