This is a very very very obvious point to make but shops and movie rental places and record stores are all more fun than buying things online

The whole article is repulsive but this passage is at the core of it. She has no interest in writing books, she wants to win some kind of competition that nobody entered

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Adobe stock down 38.23%

Is it bad if your stock is down almost 40% over a year despite quadrupling down on AI during a stock market bubble?

Now that the Adobe debacle has started to die down, please don’t forget about the animators. There are a lot of crafts, including animation, that have gotten the shit end of the stick during bargaining for decades. My craft is dying. We need more in house animation.

Adobe Customer Support: 800-915-9428

Their phone line is, obviously, pretty backed up. But I think it's worth registering your displeasure as a customer when a company just decides that work you've done over a decade is going to become completely inaccessible at their whim.

I was like β€œwhy is this trailer so much more amazing than it has any right to be” and then I got to the end and the credits said β€œscreenplay by @clmazin.bsky.social” so, mystery solved youtu.be/ZfNLApPCa8E

Sure, they've made an environmentally catastrophic mass hallucination disinformation plagiarism Clippy that will destabilize the world, but also their other goal is to replace human workers entirely and let us humans starve. A boycott of AI is the most important boycott of your entire life.

Zach has done a great job bringing a lot of resources, sample scripts, etc on how to call your senators AND representatives to urge them to vote NO on the AI moratorium in the NDAA!
