Eventually, even digital data will no longer be owned by individuals on their own initiative. Whenever there is a major change or accident in the world, in a country, in a government, in an idea, in a trend, access to it may suddenly be cut off.
A man in India says he made thousands of dollars scamming 'super dumb' MAGA fans with a fake AI influencer named 'Emily Hart'
• Helped pay for his medical school
• Instagram's algorithm would blow up his fake content daily
• Tried a liberal version but it didn't work
“Democrats know that it’s AI slop ... The MAGA crowd is made up of dumb people ... super dumb people. And they fall for it"

So incredibly disappointed and heartbroken that the #Oscars and AMPAS chose not to include my father, David Keighley, and his immeasurable contributions to IMAX and cinema in the In Memoriam segment in the broadcast.
I will never forget.
There is a whole generation of men out here who are absolutely exhausted from being the "transitional guy." They come into your life, absorb all the trauma your toxic ex left behind, provide stability, and love you gently. But because your brain is still addicted to chaos, you mistake his consistency for a lack of passion. You drain his peace to heal yourself, and then abandon him because there isn't enough "drama" to keep you entertained. Men are constantly being used as emotional handymen to fix damage they didn't cause, only to be discarded the second the foundation is stable. It is pure emotional vampirism.
They were evil for TARGETING CIVILIANS
The show show went through massive effort to show the difference between someone rebelling against an oppressive power and those who use their trauma to justify violence against the innocent
“unalived” “graped” “self delete”
the self censorship of words is so dystopian & straight out of 1984 that it makes me nauseous. stop censoring urself for an algorithm that may or may not flag u. dont undercut our language & devalue what u say & mean I cannot stress this enough.
I was in this event. Please keep in mind that we only had like 3-6 hours of server time each day.
"The girls' side fell apart for SOME REASON"
1. We unironically had Russian guys use AI images/deepfakes to cheat their way onto the girls' side and then just start mass murdering every girl they could see. This went on for irl DAYS out of a week long competition.
2. These guys also left signs around our side of the map with swastikas and sexist messages.
3. ONE GIRL on our side (Makio) independently looked into the socials of all these "girls" who were murdering other girls and found their youtube channels and reported it to staff. I think it's important to note that there wasn't even a way for us to report things in the discord server until she and other girls like mass-pinged staff for this functionality in the discord server.
4. I'm not sure if it was ever confirmed, but there were also reports of girls selling their accounts to guys as well so the guys could sabotage the girls.
5. The girls' side had trans girls on it. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS except after it became common knowledge that there were russian guys pretending to be girls and rumors of girls selling their accounts to guys, a lot of girls began reporting/targeting our trans girlies as infiltrators just because of the pitches of their voices and it started this huge fight on the girls' side about transphobia and such.
6. SO MANY GIRLS died to traps set by the fake-girls. It took the staff days to look into it, determine if those traps were set by fake-girls or real girls, and return these girls from their wrongful deaths. But by then, the event was almost over. These girls who were returned had next to no time to prepare for war, much less time to make connections/alliances with their fellow girls.
7. This was marketed initially as a CIV event, not a PVP event. There was such a low amount of girls apply initially that they started to just send the discord server invite to any girl who showed an interest in playing on a Mr. Beast minecraft server. The amount of girls who were invited who didn't even know how to make a crafting table was insane. No hate to them, of course! But Mr. Beast and his team knew that if that wall came down, boys would win because they had top Minecraft players on their side and the girls had people who didn't even know how to make a crafting table on theirs, much less how to make a sword.
I didn't know if I wanted to say something or not because I didn't want to diminish my chances of being invited to another Mr Beast event. But nobody else is speaking up and I'm just seeing too much hate on the girls not to say something.
I wish they would've said something about all of this in the actual video instead of leaving a vague thing in their description about cheaters being banned.
IMAX's new film camera will be named The @IMAX Keighley Camera — honoring both of my parents, who were instrumental in its creation. The camera was first used to film Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, coming to theaters next summer.
There’s been a lot of well-deserved attention on my dad and his legacy this year, but my mom has been just as vital to IMAX since the very beginning — and she’s still hard at work there every day. As my dad always said, she was 50% of everything he ever accomplished. I know nothing would make him happier than seeing her contributions recognized as well.
Nope. No. No fucking way. You dont get to use the tyrrany argument anymore. Fuck you. Masked secret agents running around the country trampling people's civil rights while the president wipes his ass with constitution. Implementing sweeping tariffs, a direct tax on us, bypassing congress' power. You guys are the most useless and full of shit political demographic in the country. You have 0 credibility. Fuck you.
