  • Company Offering Printed Books to Train AI Stops After 404 Media Coverage

    Jump

  • Okay book sellers,

    • raise your prices to astronomical amounts
    • put the date as before 2022, but sell AI garbage
    • if you're trying to unload trash books, change the title slightly to hide it.

    They are still doing this, they're just not advertising it anymore. They haven't stopped, the greeds have a hold of this company and they're not going to let go this easily. Shit, it took 3 weeks for them to take down the page because they used the 404 people as advertising.

  • In 2024, for example, a reporter discovered that Kay Granger, a Republican congresswoman from Texas, who hadn’t cast a vote in months, was dealing with “dementia issues” at a senior living facility. Her office hadn’t felt the need to disclose this to the public.

    I haven't heard about this one.

  • Kash Patel Loses Lawsuit Against Man Who Called Him “Googly-Eyed” Chud

    Jump

  • The judge saw that Stewartson was a poet.

    In June 2023, Patel filed a complaint that Stewartson was smearing him online by calling him a “blatantly incompetent chud” and a “Kremlin asset” who plotted to “overthrow the government” on January 6, 2021.

    Initially, Stewartson didn’t respond to the lawsuit, which led to Patel winning a $250,000 default judgment in August 2025. Stewartson challenged the default judgment on the grounds that he had no meaningful ties to Nevada, where the case was filed, and declared that Patel was a “googly-eyed Kremlin bitch” and, again, a “chud.”

    Stewartson celebrated the final order, which referenced his comment in a footnote. “I’d like to commend the judge for including ‘googly-eyed Kremlin bitch’ in his ruling,” Stewartson wrote on X Tuesday.

  • but I was using it (perhaps incorrectly) to refer to out and proud centrists eager to fight the good fight in service of the belief that actually nothing can change and the establishment is doing great.

    Those are trolls.

  • I know some of the people doing this hate America because of legitimate reasons, but they hate our government, not most of the others. Maybe I'm jaded because of where I live, but the city empties when a world catastrophe hits because they're running around the world to help. That's the America I know.

  • Please resist responsibly

    Jump

  • I'm all for everyone doing their own thing. Defend if you want to defend, feed the children, etc. Even if you feel like you want to do suicide by cop, go ahead. Promoting a general idea of fight and chaos seems like trolls trying to get America to descend into a civil war, which is the stupidest, most asinine, only good for Russia and China thing America could do. It's always foreign trolls that say and promote that kind of shit too. It really makes you wonder.

  • Did you watch the video you linked? Their name is "The Black Panther Party of Self Defense." There are so many things about that to discuss and I don't think you'll come at in good faith, that I feel like that discussion is best left for another fediverse person. You have to attack them first. The OP is talking some other shit.

    Also, the reason I mentioned "gun laws getting changed," is because the trolls usually go there first. This is a new one.

  • Similar to how they had to create their own programs to feed children because the government refused to.

    Right, this is a great way to go about fighting dictators and assholes.

  • Ex-60 Minutes Journalist Exposes How Bari Weiss Tried to Help Trump

    Jump

  • While stopping short of referring to Weiss by name, Vega said her decision to tell the story strictly through the eyes of West Virginians had spurred backlash from CBS’s “new” top brass because she had not interviewed Vice President JD Vance or referred to his decade-old memoir, Hillbilly Elegy.

    But Vance, as Vega pointed out, is from Ohio. Not West Virginia.

    Other arguments bubbled up over the network’s new intent to insert political bias into the famed news magazine’s reporting, according to Vega. One such instance involved demands by network executives that she include footage of protesters attacking plainclothes Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in Minnesota—footage that her team discovered did not exist. She said she was also tasked with inserting a line into one of her scripts that claimed Iran was “totally outgunned” by U.S. and Israeli forces—a detail that she noted was a copy-paste administration talking point.

    Jump

  • I'll see if I can find it, but that "collectively lost $830 billion in market value" is doing a lot of heavy lifting. It went down from like 89% to 82% or something. That's how much those fuckers make.
