What would it take, technologically, to build a powerful enough laser + tracking system to disable or destroy Starlink satellites? 🤔

CROW FRIENDS UPDATE

They were much more cautious today than they were last week, but a few of them did come directly up to my feet.

I think probably only another ~month or 2 and they might be ready for hand-feeding.

I had a group of them fly with me as I rode my bike today. One of them was flying within arms reach of my head, and slightly above, but was directly beside me, keeping pace.

Always fun seeing these sky-dinosaurs remember your face.

NASA map of permafrost areas vs current temperatures.

The permafrost is already melting, and releasing trillions of tonnes of methane into the atmosphere. Look at how warm it is in Alaska and Siberia. It's shorts weather.

What a bunch of fucking vultures.

Amazing how most of the tech industry and industry magnates have basically decided art isn't covered under copyright and you can just rip it off as you please.

Fuck #aiart and fuck AIbros

Reddit user rips off Syd Mead and Sparth using #MidJourney

These #aiart chuds refer to "art styles", but it's really just the names of the artists they're ripping off!

These fucking shitheads really do think they are "making" something and not just ripping off the hard work of others.

I made a shitpost about tech debt and I have techbros in my replies talking about how the analogy was inaccurate.

Fuck the internet.

The #aiart grift is painfully obvious to any artist who has had their work used as training data.

Algorithmically generated stuff is fancy clone brush with extra steps.
