I'm finally reading Dune. This quote, which is in the first few pages, hits hard:
"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them."
Honestly, this is the part that no one talks about: The Witch Hunt. People who are real are being falsely accused of being AI in everyone's rush to reject it. This is the fault of legislators who DID NOT REGULATE IT VIA SIMPLE LEGALLY REQUIRED DISCLOSURE!
@ksorbs PS: Smart money says RFK Jr. resigns as Secretary of Health by the end of 2027. @RepShriThanedar@KyleKulinski It's going to be a re-run of the first term, if you remember how many staffers were fired back then. Anybody remember "The Mooch?"
@ksorbs There's more to it than that. She was being shut out by Trump, who is getting more and more aggressive in lashing out against MAGA allies who disagree with him. Scuttlebutt is she was about to go the way of Marjorie Taylor-Greene.
@realnikohouse@DWStweets She destroyed democracy. Not Donald Trump. Not Benjamin Netenyahu. Not even Elon Musk. She just set the precedent that said you can proxy-rig the general election via the primary. She paved the way for genocide and fascism.
@SarcasmStardust I get that the system is corrupt, but not voting is what they want. The one thing that they've made abundantly clear is that they don't want you voting third party. Short of violence, that's the best way to mess with them, whether we can vote our way out of this or not.
@LexiAIexander Every time I see Kyle Kulinski, I just SMH to see how far he's fallen. He's become everything he used to make fun of. I remember in 2017 he was the ONLY person who called out the real reasons why Trump beat Hillary.
@SWCultureLive PS: The climax of George Lucas' slow descent into Hollywood prostitution came when Mel Brooks dressed up as a little goblin and said, "Moichandising! Moichandising! Vere the REAL money of the movie is made!"
@SWCultureLive Star Wars community pissing and whining over the "toxic fans" when us THX 1138 fans are over here saying, "Star Wars: The story of a man who could have been a great artist selling out, conforming to Hollywood, and milking the merchandising cash cow. IOW, Star Wars is trash.
I'll have you know that ALL of our viewers are real people. We have them strapped to a chair with their eyelids pried open to watch our streamers streams. It's punishment for breaking into our data centers.
Meatbag.
A note on our work to combat viewbotting, from CEO Dan Clancy:
There’s been a lot of discussion recently about viewbotting on Twitch, and I wanted to share an update on our enforcement efforts.
Viewbotting is bad for our business. We don't benefit from it, and we believe it harms the creator ecosystem overall. However, effectively combatting viewbotting is challenging. As we deploy updates to our real-time detection algorithms, viewbotting companies quickly respond with updates to avoid detection. Also, our detection systems must be precise to ensure that legitimate viewers are appropriately counted.
Today, we’re introducing a new enforcement type that we plan to roll out over the next few weeks. For channels identified as persistently viewbotting, we will apply a cap to the streamer’s CCV for a fixed period of time, on all of the Twitch surfaces. The cap will be based upon historical data regarding that creator’s non-viewbotted traffic. Repeated violations will result in longer penalties. Streamers will be notified when an enforcement is applied, along with the duration of the penalty, and can appeal through the appeals portal.
While streamers will be notified, we will not make a follow-on announcement when we begin issuing these enforcements, and will not publicly share details about when and where these enforcements are applied. Unfortunately, providing details simply makes it easier for companies to work around our interventions.
We believe this approach will help us make meaningful progress against viewbotting. We will continue refining our systems and expand when we apply these enforcements over time.
- Dan Clancy
@TwitchSupport And I'm SURE that this will be enforced equally with NO regard as to how much revenue the streamer brings to twitch. Uh-huh. BTW, why is Clancy still CEO after the Emiru incident at Twitch-con? Oh yeah, that right, because the whole thing was fake and staged.
I need panicked liberals to develop basic pattern recognition skills.
Tom Steyer is Gates, Bloomberg, Bezos, Zuck, and Musk.
Y’all told yourself in each one of these instances that he was one of the good ones and then you act shocked when they go full Bond villain.
Steyer is evil. Refusing to call Gaza a genocide is evil. Opposing BDS is evil. Supporting AB 715 is evil. Making money from private prisons and giving none of it back is evil.
Billionaires are evil. There are no ‘good ones’ that will protect us from the ‘bad ones.’
This is why liberalism is morally bankrupt and U.S. society doomed. Why would any moral person have to apologize for speaking out against injustice, against genocide? That is why we have a new generation that has known nothing but war and violence.https://t.co/zKUgYUNh7B
