I was a 911 dispatcher for 11 years and this is the worst idea you could possibly think of. You have scenarios where the person can’t speak well either language barriers, injuries or if they’re in a domestic situation and they pretend to call for pizza or something you need a person. You have to be able to determine how someone feels or pick up on what they aren’t saying or how they’re saying things. Same goes for open lines and hang ups. A real person needs to answer the phone not only to ensure the correct response is sent to the right place but to offer piece of mind to the caller and makes them feel safer. Situations where I had to give CPR instructions to a mother and father who’s baby wasn’t breathing was a constant occurrence and you have to be able to calm people down, an AI is not doing that ever. Same goes for dispatching calls, AI cannot do that, in theory it sounds ok for that portion but you have to acknowledge what resources are on hand, where people are, GPS isn’t always accurate so when we started using systems to automatically reroute units who were flagged as “closer” they usually weren’t. But a real person who lives in that county and knows the area, where the stations are, who’s in a move up or coverage or areas that are blocked off due to events that aren’t always in our mapping systems. The list goes on.

Terrible idea

I’ve seen this video before let me nerd out a little bc these are one of the coolest animals ever
These are Porpita porpita, aka blue buttons. They are not one organism, but rather a colony of smaller organisms that all work together. Somewhat related to the Portuguese man o war

YALL gotta realize that Sony doesn’t give a fuck about this. What would hurt them is:

- stop buying digital games on PlayStation
- stop buying the new console
- stop paying for PS plus
- if you WANT to buy a game, look for second hand

1 weeks isn’t going to do shit.

So this completely obliterates the innocent until proven guilty rule. You cannot just predict a crime when no illegal activity has occurred. They’re just gonna use the AI to make up stuff about the citizens they deem “domestic terrorists” so they can charge them with bullshit and lock them up. This is so fucking dystopian.

Someone asked me for the Armor Games intro I made back in 2008 and it made me curious if @ArmorGames still uses this... YES THEY DO!

Anyway here it is in 4K (or whatever socials compress it to)

Don’t listen to a single prick telling you to “give up” and all digital is the future anyways 🖕🏻

I just released an all-in-one tool that lets you extract textures from any perspective, turn them into seamless textures, and use them on your 3D models.

dystopian drama with a side of body horror anyone? 💃

In a world humans are treated like dolls—every part replaceable—Adisa, a struggling musician, faces pressure to buy a new voice before a career-defining gig. Desperate, he turns to the Body Shop, a chaotic underground clinic.

This fight isn't about physical vs. digital.

It's about consumers vs. anti-consumer practices.

I genuinely don't think the people defending Sony's decision are weighing the long-term consequences.

- Lose the trust of your most passionate fans—the collectors, influencers, and lifelong supporters who buy the most hardware and software—and you lose far more than a few sales. You lose your biggest advocates.
- Blindside retailers and partners, and don't be surprised if those relationships become more complicated going forward.
- Push everyone to digital, but offer no meaningful consumer protections. Can you lend a game? Trade it? Gift it? Preserve it if your account is banned? What guarantees do you actually have?
- Tell us digital is cheaper for you, then charge us the same (or more) anyway. If manufacturing, shipping, distribution, and retailer cuts disappear... where are the savings? Especially with dynamic pricing entering the conversation.

This isn't about making anyone feel bad for buying digital. Buy digital. Buy physical. I don't care.

What I care about is choice. What I care about is ownership. What I care about is consumers having rights instead of corporations having all the leverage.

We don't owe loyalty to shareholders. We should be standing together.

Because this isn't just about PlayStation. Every publisher is watching. Every platform holder is watching.

The standards we accept today become the standards the entire industry follows tomorrow.

Hold the line, people.

I find it shocking that this is the level to which climate debate has been dumbified to.

It's no longer second-order consequences, or even first-order inconvenience. It's literally just "I can just pretend everything is fine so there's no problem".

Dawg, the crops, the food.

Teddy Roosevelt, 26th President: "To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."
(In other words--Trump is a wanna be dictator)
