Facebook is kicking me out
It would be great if the music scene joined the Federation. It’s turning out to be harder than I thought. We need OpenMySpace. Otherwise, we’ll soon be listening to nothing but AI-generated music. The world probably doesn’t deserve anything better anyway.

🕰️ Archives & Public Domain
For those who love the "golden age" and silent films:
• WikiFlix: browse public domain films hosted on Wikimedia Commons.
• Internet Archive: you know that, it's like the wild west of cinema. Everything from film noir to silent expressionism is parked here for eternity. Might need a good digging attitude.

📌 Many of these sites operate on a "rotating" basis (films stay up for 30 days, or more). Sign up for their newsletters so you don't miss the good stuff.

Do you have any favorite "secret" place to watch great movies?

As many of the AI stories on Walled Culture attest, one of the most contentious areas in the latest stage of AI development concerns the sourcing of training data. To create high-quality large language models (LLMs) massive quantities of training data are required. In the current genAI stampede, many companies are simply scraping everything they can off the Internet. Quite how that will work […]

I've talked a lot about our toys, and why we make them, but I figure I should explain again.

I make the toys that I want to see in the world.

I've been collecting toys for years, but those toys are so often made by or in service of corporations that want to lock up our culture and burn our planet.

So I created my own characters, started writing, mined the public domain, and started making my own toys and telling my own stories.

Stories that don't enrich some far off corporation or overstuffed capitalist, toys that are made sustainably, by people who are being paid a reasonable amount of money.

We tell stories that reflect our values, it's #CommunityMedia, and we're making toys that reflect those values too.

It's one part #anticapitalism, on part #openculture, and a small dose of #smallThings

We can't do it without your support, so if you see something you like in the toys that we make, boost it. If you want something, and you can afford it, buy it.

Ask questions, help us tell stories.

Thanks.

I've said it before, but The Internet Archive is doing The Lord's Work(TM). I need to set aside a bit of time to really poke through the collection in their DLARC College Radio archive:

That's what the Internet was really made for -- making bits of history available to everybody to share and enjoy. #Radio #OpenCulture
