Could this be a solution?
Yeehaw?

Welcome to the ai wars!

I have a gif for this...

Tweet by Jatin @jatinkmalik The reason why RAM has become four times more expensive is that a huge amount of RAM that has not yet been produced was purchased with non-existent money to be installed in GPUs that also have not yet been produced, in order to place them in data centers that have not yet been built, powered by infrastructure that may never appear, to satisfy demand that does not actually exist and to obtain profit that is mathematically impossible

i think that one of the things that nobody in the mainstream talks about (yes i know we complain about it on here all the time if you think this is the mainstream oh boy) is how successfully politicians have divested themselves of any responsibility for anything at all

Honest tae fuck

Most of them have more than one job and other sources of income. They should only have one job, being an MP

A screenshot of an email from an ad agency to Evil Hat Marketing: Hey Evil Hat team, Promised this is the last time you’ll hear from me. We are wrapping up generating content on the house. The AI studio is starting to get fully booked with our paying clients, and I have strict orders to stop promoting this come the weekend. I figured Evil Hat might as well get some work out of us at no cost while you can. Want in before we close it up? Best, [redacted] And then our reply: Hi [redacted], We will never use AI for our games or for our marketing. It's toxic to our customer audience and it's an ethical violation of the hard work put in by the human artists we hire to illustrate our books and the human writers who design our games. In short, it's not "free work" it's theft. Feel free to take me off your mailing list. Hope you turn around your business model because frankly, your current approach sucks shit. -Tom

sometimes you have to be clear about your values

You know who really are the biggest losers after the Greens win in Manchester? Not just Labour, Reform and the Tories, but the London media which has platformed and cosseted and cheerled for Reform. The Greens whipped two sets of extremists: billionaire-backed Reform and billionaire newspaper barons

It’s time to nationalise the Daily Mail and bring it onshore.

So wait, how many humans could we be feeding instead of powering ai? Let’s do that instead.

This one hits hard.

This is absolute gold

A photograph of our cat Professor Charles Cardigan, peeking at us from behind a door frame, when he was barely out of kittenhood and first getting into the ska punk music that he likes and has since terrorised us with on a daily basis, to the point where our home no longer feels like our own.

"You will be glad to hear that while you were out I seized upon the opportunity to liberate your record collection from its oppressive alphabetical filing system and rearranged it by genre."

Cat got stuck behind the bookcase and this was the result!
