Netflix Is Staffing Up A ‘GenAI-Native Animation Studio’ Called INKubator:

Just no. Very all-the-NO. NOOO! Support human artists, not slop generators. #StopTheMadness #genAI #aislop https://www.cartoonbrew.com/artificial-intelligence/netflix-inkubator-artificial-intelligence-animation-studio-260906.html

Nouvelle #petition sur la plateforme Greenvoice pour arrêter la folie des JO et le système JO. Des collectifs de plusieurs pays sont mobilisés pour interpeller le CIO et la pétition multilingue peut être transférée à qui réside en Suisse, en Italie, et bien sûr en France.

Could we just get everyone to stop including a pic of the stupid moron in every single freaking article or post about something ridiculously stupid, cruel, or illegal, that the shithead has done? #StopTheMadness #TrumpNeedsToBeTakenDown #StopTheVisualAssault

Maybe I’m an outlier, but I think this is madness. Why are we ok with third party software built on stolen knowledge controlling our knowledge and technology? #AI #Stopthemadness

I’m sorry clock. I know you insist it’s 7AM. But my body and the sun very much disagree. I don’t know who gave you the idea that we should time travel, and feel jet lagged, without the benefit of a tropical locale and being waited on, but this is bullshit and must stop.

Trump droht Demokraten offen mit der Todesstrafe.

Ein weiteres Beispiel dafür, was für ein niederträchtiger, gefährlicher Mensch er ist.

Wegen eines völlig legitimen Videos – in dem sechs Demokraten das Militär einfach nur daran erinnern, illegale Befehle zu verweigern – fantasierte Trump sofort von „Verrat“ und „Todesstrafe“.
Ein Demokrat schützt die Verfassung.
Trump träumt davon, politische Gegner töten zu lassen.

Das ist nicht „starker Führungsstil“.
Das ist autokratische, zutiefst verkommene Machtbesessenheit.
Wer so redet, ist eine Gefahr für jede freie Gesellschaft.

It feels like the #Fediverse is the only ecosystem that isn’t shoving some flashy new AI feature in your face every other day.

No forced prompts. No synthetic hype. Just people, ideas, and open protocols.

And honestly? I think that’s kind of beautiful.

#Trumplicans continue with their #trumpshutdown refusing to open the government and insisting on rising medical costs and Americans losing medical coverage. This is their shutdown. They can easily reopen the government and stop their assault on the people of America. Unfortunately, they are trapped inside the #fortressofstupidity that is Trump's brain. They have acquired the derangement of Trump. And while they lay and fire people, #MAGA has now become #MakeArgentinaGreatAgain instead of America.

Explaining things to a #powershell newbie is exhausting, in part because of Microsoft. There are THREE (possibly four) versions of PowerShell that you can get caught up in - there's Windows PowerShell, Powershell (pwsh), Isolated PowerShell via VSCode, and (I think) Isolated Windows PowerShell via VS Code when you open Isolated PowerShell via VSCode and type "powershell" and press enter. All of these use different profile files, and have various degrees of settings drift as well as their own bugs and quirks. #pwsh #stopthemadness #Microsoft

We cannot forget or become complacent with the atrocities of the past or allow them to be repeated in the present. During WWII it was people of Japanese decent, most of them American citizens. Today it’s immigrants of color. We have to speak out and stop this madness.

@lapcatsoftware While looking for something more convenient than https://www.whatsmydns.net/url-unshortener to unshorten URLs, I encountered your software. I purchased #StopTheMadness Pro last evening and am already appreciating it.

I mistakenly assumed Link Unshortener was a subset of StopTheMadness, but believe I understand correctly now it's independent (though some features seem to overlap) and I need to purchase it too for fully URL unshortening power.

How can I verify what shortening services it supports besides those noted?

Looks like I also need Homecoming for Mastodon too! 🙂

Today’s the first day of choosing to take Amtrak over flying because of the pointless destruction of air traffic control and safety by 🍊 and his boss Musk.

I'm confident it won't be the last time.

Tell me, are we great yet?

@w7voa Hey Steve do you think it would be appropriate to call Federal judges?
I think the answer is probably no, but I would like to thank this judge…..and it dawned on me that maybe besides contacting our reps we could contact judges? Ask them to #stopthemadness

I really love this song. Mostly by the lyrics as the music itself. I'm not afraid to say that I fucking hate the alcohol, since it ruins people in every way even in a miserable level

Find a cool product on Amazon?
That company exists OFF Amazon,
too.
1) Google company name.
2) Order from their site.
2a) Can usually find a 10% code!
3) Still get product in 2-8 days.
4) Company avoids losing 25% margin share to Amazon.
5) You avoid giving money to Bezos.

So what’s the best Safari ad-blocker these days?

I currently use a combination of #1Blocker and #StopTheMadness, but find they impact too many actual features of websites and I find myself having to access sites in a private window too often to get things to work.

Is it worth persisting and tweaking them? What about the likes of #Wipr and #AdBlockPro these days?
