AI and kids, what could go wrong?

AI toys for young children need tighter rules, researchers warn In first study of its kind, Cambridge researchers found AI toys could misread some children's emotions.

Oh my god people are giving small children AI toys and expecting them to learn communication from them??? THIS IS LITERALLY WHAT HUMANS SHOULD BE DOING THIS IS NOT AI'S JOB WHAT THE HELL www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

oh cool we’re doing the Wire Mother experiment again, but on all of society

Oh my god

I was called by a US Marines recruiting agent today and after he made me uncomfortable I hung up. He then called back and left a voicemail saying "a man would hold a solid conversation" and told me to call back when I fail in life. This is the state of the US government, ugh.

@curbal.bsky.social your discord account was hacked, it sent me a crypto scam

An oddity at ax man I thought @saveitforparts.bsky.social may be interested in! Some very large display thing.... It's by the windows facing the road!

I think I have a crush on him now too...

Guh me

But it has "special word processing!" It's special!!

Thanks for once again reminding me to work on my Mac classic :)

The folks at spectravideo use theirs suspended in the air!

Immediately after writing this I see the alt saying it's a BBC master! Ignore me!

Is that an acorn? I'm not familiar with them much. Looks neat tho!

tbh as much as official rereleases are good for accessibility, I also feel like a lot of people just won't play games if they don't have official versions and that's not great for culture. Everyone should be downloading random ROMs until they find that special one that breaks their brain wide open.

Everybody should just pirate everything. Download all the ROMs you can, play old games that Nintendo wants to charge you $60 for the privilege of playing again, anybody who has a problem with this has incurable cop-brain and you shouldn't listen to anything they say

This is basically a Lego simulator, and it looks pretty in-depth too. Pretty neat!

So great to meet @saveitforparts.bsky.social at his swap meet today! I'm the one who have you the variable power supply and chart recorder! I both successfully got rid of everything I brought yet also took in just as much!
It was really fun overall and I can't wait for the next one if there's more!

This applies to all CRTs

Merry Christmas to me

That was fun for me too! I've always been into it but that app definitely added to the spark!

I never knew you liked gardening?

Unironically one of the coolest telephone sounds out there. It's a very loud tone that goes off after your phone has been off-hook for a few minutes. It's basically just a scream to get your attention and make you hang it up lol

youtu.be/TjdIdY5aBns?...

@furrytel.net wait until they find out that there was a real phone line feature called the "Howler" tone...
