Those sound like bad-ass professors!

I enjoyed watching the X-Files as a teenager, but I keep wondering if it wasn't responsible for a bunch of current-day brain-poisoning.

3rd Voice is a webcomic in a sort of post-apocalypse setting and the main character Spondule rides a bike. There's a lot of action and the bike works well in the story--faster than running, but still able to take pretty tight turns.

Can the people advocating for AI art provide any examples of anything human-generated that is artistically interesting? I suspect not and that's a big part of why they're impressed with AI art.

Like, they'd probably say "The Mona Lisa" because it's well known to be Great Art, and then their AI can draw them in the style of the Mona Lisa, ergo it has generated Great Art.

In the novel Snow Crash, the residents of the white-supremacist micro-state franchises visit other places because they have no non-whites to attack at home.

She's bad for supporting him in the first place. But once you're in the concentration camp I feel like it's tougher to expect people to have a spine. Kinda like in 1984. Maybe if she begs Trump to kill her kids, she'll be spared.

Thanks for sharing!

Commentary on your writing: I was a bit surprised by the writing style of your article at first. Then I realized: Kazeta is an art-piece and you are writing a "the arts" article on it. I think that this was the correct choice for the topic, but I found it hard to appreciate because coming from a link in the "Linux Gaming" community I was expecting a gaming or tech article instead. That would have had stats like how fast games load from "off" to "playing", some example builds and prices for making an ideal Kazeta, a review of how hard it was to make your own SD, etc.

I think the mental space I'd put this in is like a Rolling Stone interview where you're writing lyrically about Alkazar and his work while weaving in paragraph quotes from him.

I think it's OK to still hate. Kissing ass while smirking because you're soooo smart is still kissing ass. And Apple was part of putting Trump into office.

I once did some programming on the Cybiko, a device from 2000 that could form a wireless mesh network with peers. The idea was that you could have a shopping mall full of teens and they'd be able to chat with each other from one end to the other by routing through the mesh. It was a neat device!

I think key context is that the guy is representing himself as having special knowledge about what Signal is doing internally and what they'll do next.

It's not "you bump into some rando on the street. Don't you know she's CEO of Signal??"

It's "you're giving a Ted Talk about Signal. The woman in the front row offers a correction and you're like, 'shut up, dummy.'"

I'm downvoting because of your edit complaining about down-votes.

So: at least 4 years, probably longer :/
