Back in 2010, one of my coworkers pitched this exact idea to me. He wanted to start a business that would allow people to upload writing samples, pictures, and video from a loved one. Then create a virtual personality that would respond as that person.
I lost touch with the guy. Maybe he went on to become a Black Mirror writer. Or got involved with ChatGPT.
As a Broncos fan, I always love when we get weird shout outs. Like Homer’s “awww the Denver Broncos” will never not be hilarious to me.
Another resident called Trump’s spending plan (the so-called “one, big beautiful bill”) the “big bullshit bill” and was chastised by LaMalfa for their language. “Fuck you!” replied several in attendance.
Ok that actually made me laugh
Though it would be hilarious if the author titled the article:
‘A literal (sic) gut punch’: Missouri workers devastated by Republican repeal of paid sick leave
In this dude’s defense, no where does it mention him being a Republican or supporting Republican politicians. It does say:
Thompson helped gather signatures for the paid-sick-leave and minimum-wage-increase ballot initiative
So I don’t think this is a leopards eating face scenario.
My son wanted to play the Battlefield open beta over the weekend. It legitimately took me 4 hours to get their shitty kernel anti-cheat shit working. I can’t imagine the average non-technical person being able to do that just to play a game.

As an American, I thought “49° isn’t that bad… Wait WTF THAT’S IN CELSIUS?!?”
Never seen temps that high before. Holy shit.
Will report back. I used one a couple years ago, but it’s since gone out of business. Like I said, yesterday I was having trouble sifting through all the slop to find an actual real answer. I signed up for a free trial of one and will respond if it’s any good. I’m not holding my breath through.
I just realized how freaking bad this was - especially on Reddit. I was doing a search for IPTV providers. I checked reddit first, since in the last that has been a reliable way for finding people recommending stuff, not just whatever is search engine optimized.
Holy shit was it bad. Nearly every comment was AI slop. They all followed a very similar structure. Tons and tons of comments like:
Appreciate the share! LunoTV is great — super affordable and has tons of channels. Definitely recommend checking it out.
Appreciate the share! Xalvon IPTV offers tons of channels and the streaming has been really smooth on my devices. Good value overall.
LunoTV has been great for me. Tons of channels, really affordable, and easy to set up.
Luno TV has been great for me. Tons of channel selection is huge, and their app runs smoothly .
We’re seriously getting to a point where we won’t be able to search for anything due to AI fake results.
For a party that has constantly messaged themselves as being for free trade and lower taxes, they sure do love restricting trade and jacking up taxes.
As is tradition
They’re already trying. I saw an article the other day about them planning to give tariff refund checks back to red voters.
Inspired by this post (https://sh.itjust.works/post/43644825) with Nebraska’s GDP being in the shitter.
🎶🎵Duck Tales WOO HOO 🎶🎵
Yeah, it’s like 5 websites now.
I wanna click that Tour the Web link so bad
I don’t want to excuse their decision, but want to point out some context. Right-wing media is really effective at throwing out a ton of bullshit to obfuscate reality. The right-wing bubble throws out shit like Democrats having underground pedophile rings being run in DC pizza restaurants. Meanwhile Trump was found to have committed rape by a court.
Many conservative voters either:
Lol at first I thought “no way am I watching a 17 minute video about this.” But I was wrong. Captivating and hilarious the whole way through.
