Das Zeitalter der übermäßigen Mittelmäßigkeit:

Was hält die Zukunft also für uns bereit? Filme, die vollständig von KI generiert werden? Lieder, die von Algorithmen komponiert werden? Anwendungen, die von anderen Anwendungen erstellt werden?
In dieser neuen Welt sind echte Talente willkommener und wichtiger denn je. Ihre Kreativität, ihr Fachwissen und ihre einzigartige Vision sind entscheidend...

Enjoying Google Chrome's pinned tabs feature? I don't, because it's awful 😂. So I fixed it 😎. -> Download my free #Chrome #extension to protect your #pinnedtabs against unintentional closures and prevent opening different websites inside pinned tabs.
Simple, straightforward, no settings. Just install and let it work its magic.

"Futures made of virtual insanity,
Now always seem to be governed by this love we have,
For useless twisting of our new technology"

Lyrics from "Virtual Insanity" by Jamiroquai, 1996.

Well thanks #DuckDuckGo for helping to destroy the planet a little bit quicker by making all searches default to LLM/AI 🤮

It even has a small print disclaimer saying "These results are not checked for accuracy"... well why the F are you putting these results at the top then? Why are you even showing them at all?

Why free public transport across the EU makes sense! 🚆🇪🇺

Free public transport can enhance the EU's right to free movement, reduce CO2 emissions, and strengthen EU unity. Luxembourg has set a precedent and such an initiative could transform Europe.

A cartoon image of a train painted in the colors of the EU flag. The train has an open roof and people are standing inside, like trains in an amusement park. They smile, wave and some hold a EU flag in their hand. The landscape is green an shows some cartoonish monuments representing EU landmarks.

Solar and wind outpace nuclear, gas, coal and hydro power when it comes to how fast these technologies ramped up.

Note this is NOT capacity but generation in TWh vs years since generating 100 TWh.

Great visual by RMI.

This is funny… and sickening… 🤮

#Plastic #Pollution

Photo of a woman in a seafood market purchasing a whole fresh fish. She asks the attendant, "May I have a plastic bag?" Below that, the same photo is repeated, with the attendant replying to the woman, "Already inside!"

Once again I've participated in the Paint Over Fast Competition at Revision 2024. ✨ Rippling Ribbons ✨ (inspired by a chaos picture) was created within less than 24 hours including sleep and breaks. deviantart.com/sylviaritter/ar

Rippling Ribbons - Two astronauts floating in space. We can see one of these astronauts in the bottom left corner. The ribbons start at the heart area—reaching out, following along a Milky Way, traveling around a planet, until meeting the other astronaut, trying to save a handful of planets - earth and earthlike. The second astronaut is already dissolving and meets his friend somewhere and somehow again. Through time and space. -  We had 24 hours to finish the artwork (including sleep and breaks).
Many thanks to my wonderful friend and illustrator mouldyCat for providing the chaos picture paintover.3eyed.net/.

Le potentiel de l'IA en matière d'inclusion est indéniable. Les LLM s'avère particulièrement utile pour faciliter l'accès à l'information écrite pour les personnes en situation de handicap.

Just sharing something I found recently. One line of CSS to make San Francisco more accessible:

```
font-feature-settings: "ss06";
```

Why isn’t this the default? No clues.

To enable more distinct uppercase I, lowercase L, and the number 0, write this line of CSS: font-feature-settings: "ss06".
