@FellowshipFans Sam considering what powers the One Ring could give him is EXCELLENT: "Wild fantasies arose in his mind; and he saw Samwise the Strong, Hero of the Age.... at his command the vale of Gorgoroth became a garden of flowers and trees and brought forth fruit". I vote Dark Gardener!

Curiosity has delivered a new 360-degree panorama from Mars. “We’ve seen a lot of fascinating landscapes through Curiosity’s eyes, but this sea of polygons took our breath away,” said the mission’s project scientist. 1/2

皆さん、こんにちは！
今日は、私の写真の解説をしたいと思います。
この景色は「きぼう」日本実験棟の窓から撮影したものですが、きぼうの窓から南天を見る事ができるのは、ISSがいつもの進行方向と前後逆になっている時のみで、とても珍しい風景です。窓の右上隅には、最も太陽系に近い恒星系のαケンタウリがあり、天の川内の少し暗い部分がコールサック、その横に南十字が見えます。また天の川の紫色に見える部分には、銀河系内で最も大きな恒星の一つであるイータ・カリーナがあります。カメラから数cmの距離にある窓枠、数十m先の太陽電池パネル、そして数百km先のオーロラで地球と太陽の活動を、更に数光年先のαケンタウリ、数百光年先の暗黒星雲、数千光年先のイータ・カリーナ、その先数万光年続く銀河系といった形で宇宙の立体的奥行きを感じられる風景になっています。ISSのトラスが深淵の宇宙方向へ伸びる構図で、今後人類の叡智が深宇宙へ挑戦していく未来を示している様で、私のお気に入りです笑。

The antidote for brain rot is going back to longer formats: reading books, essays.

Reading will help you rebuild your focus and attention span.

TFW you're trying to rehabilitate the Targaryen brand, but your shitass nephew keeps ruining the vibes...

@vaarians_ You'll know when it's ready, and there's no need to force it. Sometimes plots just work themselves out subconsciously and appear, and some demand confusion and frustration! We readers will be thankful no matter the fuel in the forge! 🥰🙏🙇🏻‍♀️

[kazmological 🚀💚४🌃✨☄️🎸🇦🇶📚🌈🎶🌠🌅🦋🌌🏊 @kazmological]

@vaarians_ Take all the time you need to make sure it pleases you first & foremost. As blurted in my latest comment/rant, where I speculated in several directions at once like a frenzied hen, there are so many ways the plot could unfold/explode/erupt, all of them awesome.

Massive AI companies and doomsday crowd have one core thing on common.

They lack nuance and/or understanding of the real science behind it and real-world applications.

Having access to LLMs with certain cool abilities like image generation, audio generation, and access to vast swathes of information does not equate to reasoning or computational intelligence.

If anyone tells you we are close to AGI, they are outright lying. It's purely theoretical at this stage, and all the compute in the world won't change that.

Getting to the real crux, these people are either snake oil salesmen or inept. Neither is excusable. People who believe it'll wholesale replace people are just as foolish. It'll certainly enhance humans in the workplace, outright replace them? Pffft, no way at this stage.

Thoughts people?

Steve Witkoff ran away when I confronted him about his financial ties to Russia.

His real estate company has been bankrolled directly by a former advisor to Vladimir Putin's sovereign wealth fund.

He’s been making pro russia statements for months.

My buddy lost his job to AI. It was his job to chug thousands of gallons of water at a data center

[kazmological 🚀💚४🌃✨☄️🎸🇦🇶📚🌈🎶🌠🌅🦋🌌🏊 @kazmological]

@IMDb So well deserved! Loved him in 'Outer Range', loved him even more in 'Thunderbolts*'. Looking forward to what he does next, especially with Robert Reynolds!

[kazmological 🚀💚४🌃✨☄️🎸🇦🇶📚🌈🎶🌠🌅🦋🌌🏊 @kazmological]

@DuBarrysLady Not a film, but he's terrific in 'Lessons in Chemistry'. His Calvin is compelling, but the whole show is a gift, full of splendidly delineated characters, their lives intertwining so compellingly.

GenAI isn't just a technology; it's an informational pollutant—a pervasive cognitive smog that touches and corrupts every aspect of the Internet. It's not just a productivity tool; it's a kind of digital acid rain, silently eroding the value of all information.

Every image is no longer a glimpse of reality, but a potential vector for synthetic deception. Every article is no longer a unique voice, but a soulless permutation of data, a hollow echo in the digital chamber. This isn't just content creation; it's the flattening of the entire vibrant ecosystem of human expression, transforming a rich tapestry of ideas into a uniform, gray slurry of derivative, algorithmically optimized outputs.

This isn't just innovation; it's the systematic contamination of our data streams, a semantic sludge that clogs the channels of genuine communication and cheapens the value of human thought—leaving us to sift through a digital landfill for a single original idea.

@Pontifex Do a heroic act. Get in a plane with humanitarian aid, break the aerial siege, Would they down your airplane? The Pope’s plane? It’s time for real action earth, enough with the spineless execuses

[Alec Karakatsanis @equalityAlec]

The pope could board a ship with aid and sail to Gaza. With the UN declaring the final stage of famine that might be irreversible for millions, bold acts of courage by everyone in a position to do something are the only chance.

[Mohammad Alsaafin @malsaafin]

The Pope should go to Gaza, and bring aid in. He should dare the Israelis to block him. Words, no matter how heartfelt, will not save a single starving child.

@thomslvey The difference in gait + stance between Bob & Sentry is just 🤯 Like, in that way Christopher Reeves transformed when moving from an undercover Clark Kent into Superman. I love that Lewis credited costume design for providing a suit that enabled this, but he obv did his homework!

@915dpsp @kai_winchester_ I love these. Marvel are really missing out on a trick by not leaning into Boblena or even Thunderbolts merch #takemymoney
