the worst part about openclaw is having to use telegram and its hideous themes. this is not hackercore

Coded Care: Can Machines Embody Affection, or Can They Only Emulate It?
'Nintendogs' (2017) by Fabian Kühfuß
A kinetic exploration of affection, automating petting to question if mechanical actions can truly embody genuine care, or if we merely project our own yearning onto them.
English
@dariusdan "rough time to start as a designer" and it's just too many tools that let you make anything you've ever dreamed of.
English
Rough time to start as a designer. A new tool drops every week and the noise is deafening.😶
What actually lasts is taste, aesthetic sense, curation, understanding user behavior, and the discipline to simplify instead of add.
English
@RockyRoark Are they selling "you don't need a designer" or were you hooked by clickbait influencers? I don't see any replacing of designers, I see new tools.
English
OpenAI hired Jony Ive.
Gamma, Perplexity, and Superhuman all hired the same branding studio.
Every AI company selling “you don’t need a designer” is quietly paying designers to build their own brand.
The companies closest to the technology are the ones least willing to trust it with.
Joshua Blankenship@blankenship
Interesting. Gamma paid “the design tax” to a fantastic design agency for their brand identity. I’d love to see a robust public conversation about how AI design tools aren’t good enough for companies to use on their own brands, but are ostensibly good enough for their customers.

@nocontextmemes I still think it's a skill issue. Scroll better retard.

@RobynUrback "Vibes" as set by our government-owned media and political system that, gosh darn it, just keeps electing liberals for 70% of the last century. I guess its just the whims and vibes of the moment and not, you know, the overwhelming forces.
English
It was a very strong interview. But I’m not convinced a few words would’ve changed the course of the last election. I think a lot of the vote was based on vibes, and Carney had the right ones for the moment

These 25 seconds could have meant PM Poilievre. Only it someone had advised this and someone else had listened.

@RosieRocks28 Canada is basically one side of the American culture war, frozen in time.
English
What Joe Rogan fails to understand is that Canada is in the full throes of TDS. Logic and reason have been tossed aside for elbows and clucking. People are quite literally insane.
Jasmin Laine@JasminLaine_
“So why did you lose?” Joe Rogan seems baffled that Canadians had anything bad to say about Pierre Poilievre based on how sensible and effective his policies would be.
English
@spirodonfl It's a piece of code you can run offline. It takes words as input and outputs other words with math.
Yeah.... it's a lot like a calculator.
English
@PixelAloha Its like thinking comparing LLMs to calculators is a good comparison. Something *has* gone away and its the neuronal integrity of people who make stupid statements like this
English
Metaverse shutting down after spending 800000000000000000000000000000000000 freedom dollars on it proves LLMs can go away too. These things can be put back in the box for better things.
English
@underIineoasl People will overdramatize TikTok as some modern brainrot but... It's just cable TV.
It's slightly more gamed/tracked/faster... but it's the same thing that captured boomers in the 80s and 90s.
"Channel surfing"

@dariusdan Figma wasn't even industry standard until 5 years ago. If you're a designer and you believe in some ye olde toolset: good luck. You need to be switching them up often, and the best tool of 2026 might in fact have a prompt box...
English
Want to be a designer? Pick up a pen. Use paper. Grab a camera. Learn Figma. Don't skip those. Because no prompt box will ever make you one.
English
@TheLoneDalek20 I'm old enough to remember when older people would grumble about computers, scoff at any idea of art on screens, scoff at any music made in a sequencer, regarded photoshop as slop, call videogames "beep beep games" that rot kids' minds....
We're back. You're back.
English
Another day to tap the sign. Generative AI is a plague and must be rejected if things are ever going to have a chance to improve
English
@VraserX I've noticed this completely collapsing. In an age of Claude Code and OpenClaw and Grok, people are not necessarily saying ChatGPT like 2023 anymore..... its more becoming "AI".
English
OpenAI’s biggest moat is not IQ.
It’s that normal people already use “ChatGPT” as the verb for talking to intelligence.
English
@acechhh Literally more Canadians will listen to this than the last 10 Canadian shared events you can think of.
English
nobody is doing that, robyn
Robyn Urback@RobynUrback
Canadians having a weird communal experience all tuning into the Joe Rogan podcast right now

@MeghanEMurphy I don't know about "addiction", but usage? It's 99%+. And the 1%, we are talking muslims and christians....
English
Hmm I mean women can tell, first of all. It's not exactly a subtle thing if it's a man you're in a relationship with. But also I do talk to lots of men about their porn use... x.com/realMarcusGunn…
Marcus Gunn@realMarcusGunn
What men are opening up to women about being porn addicts? This is like a 1st to me.
English
@signulll This would be a more notable phenomenon in the timeline where Trump didn't happen. A decade after the pussy tape, does anyone still think a wild online take is disqualifying for anything?
English
politicians in their 40s right now have facebook posts from 2008 that are cringe as hell.
if you give it another cycle or two & we’re gonna get senators with cringeposts, onlyfans adjacent content, & genuinely unhinged discord server activity.
there is nothing really genuinely ephemeral online anymore.
English
@nikicaga We had metrosexualism in the year 2000. It's more like men caring about grooming is a constant possibility that occasionally resurfaces, only to inevitably be pushed back down by masculine peer pressure.
English
Pretty clearly a result of dating apps - looks are more important than ever for first impression, reducing the impact of both personality and "game"
j@meadandjuniper
The rise of “looksmaxxing” seems to indicate that many modern young men have little confidence that they can acquire gf through improving their personality or learning social algorithms like the 2000s PUAs, which is curious
English
@nikicaga Personality and game have never mattered they just matter even less now
English
@savvypleb Yeah, but people in the day wouldn't just stumble into it either. It was an all consuming quest to go out and overcome your limitations and against all odds, get laid. The phone kills that quest, and it's not a similar level of entertainment in the slightest.
English
being a virgin in 2026 isn’t a big deal. young people are in their homes on the phone or computer, sex happened when there wasn’t much to do
