Spent some time building my own 8-bit version of Dungeon Crawler Carl after binge reading it.

The internet has truly never been more fun.

Ontario recently passed a law making it illegal to profit on the resale of event tickets.

Should we do the same thing here?

[ALISON WONDERLAND @awonderland]

Man I’m so pissed. Fuck bots and fees making all the money on my Denver show. I’m literally LOSING money putting this show on for u guys and other people profit off it. Fuck this . I had the ticket price originally at less than they went for and the fees are crazy. This sucks for both me and my fans. I am sorry . I actually am so bummed, we have to bring in all the production and are spending the rest of our money fitting the place out with a bunch of halloween stuff, which I hope y’all like.

[Tenobrus @tenobrus]

i mean it's like an 8. this isn't literally the internet shutting down, this is pretty much what was obvious as soon as mythos was announced. a huge fraction of *websites* use PHP, but most services you use day to day don't, or if they do are run by extremely competent big tech companies who will have already patched this. google is fine, meta is fine, etc etc. but smaller businesses, hell fortune 500s with less competent tech teams, your credit unions and not maximally large banks, basically everything in the medium to long tail, is incredibly exposed. probably the 2 months openai bought before disclosure was enough to bite out a solid chunk of the middle of the tail... but definitely not all of it. if you have any kind of sensitive info or relationships with said services... well expect them to be hacked, expect it to be dumped. they don't have the expertise or ability or will to fix this quickly, ai or no ai. if you had some old random website you liked visiting that looks like it hasnt been updated since 2014, solid shot the server gets taken over and it either starts mining monero on your browser or just totally shut down.

its all manageable at the end of the day. but manageable and managed arent the same thing

AI is making your brand mediocre.

That’s why I’m launching @TheStartersHQ: the human layer behind your business.

We give you direct access to the people who have built category-defining brands so you can:

➔ Learn from their expertise
➔ Consult 1:1 with them
➔ Hire them to execute for you

Because as AI makes execution cheaper...

Human brilliance becomes priceless.

Encouraging to see Meta coordinate with the DOJ, FBI and international bodies to disrupt scam networks and deliver real enforcement in West Africa to protect Americans.

We’re giving Instinct access to more tools. Starting today, your Instinct will have its own email address. This is the first step towards enabling your Instinct to own and run its own accounts.

Most everyday tasks flow through your email: creating accounts, confirming bookings, contacting businesses, and following up when things need attention. With its own email, Instinct can send and receive emails without cluttering your inbox.

For example, Instinct can use its own email to contact a restaurant about a special request, ask a business about availability, or sign up for a service it needs to complete your task.

You can get started by claiming an email address for your Instinct at https://t.co/iFb62wyEDC. If you were a very early user, we went ahead and reserved a preferential email address for you. Your Instinct will tell you what reserved for you 🙂.
