YouTube Is Changing the Entire Algorithm
"MrBeast’s viewership has dropped 50%. He used to get 400M–900M views, now it’s 60M–120M. Why? Because YouTube controls the knob."
"YouTube hit a mark where they said: stop recommending the big popular channels, start recommending the smaller ones."

I mean clearly trees are able to live in the interstellar world and if trees are able to live then everything about the oxygen crisis makes no sense before we even get to the absurdity of the atmosphere running out of oxygen in a few decades.

I get the sentiment. It seems irrational and ludditive (yes I declare that a word). But aside from the one absolute legitimate concern imo, the noise pollution -often infrasonic, it’s more like this as far as I can see: This new tech comes in, it scrapes the hard earned work of billions of people and remixes it. No one gave permission… It’s got 2 or 3 companies slated to become more powerful than we can imagine. Ridiculously rich. And that’s fine. I don’t hate capitalism. But if these data centers are going to have 1 spec of a negative impact on me and my community. Fuck right off. If it’s out in the boonies away from neighborhoods and it’s guaranteed to not have detrimental impacts then hell yeah. Do we get any guarantees tho?
when I see people mocking others for not wanting this ungodly huge thing right down the road…? Cmon

Honestly, what do these people think happens inside of data centers? Do they believe that Meta is digging a hole to the center of the Earth? Conjuring demons? Testing a new earthquake gun? This is, by far, the most absurd tech-centric moral panic I've seen in my life.

@IzaBooboo @aziz0nomics They’re fine and I’ll enjoy some of the benefits of AI but sure as hell not within earshot of my house

@strxwmxn @RobynUrback In other news, Jews once again prove to be the smartest and do the impossible

@RobynUrback It should be easy enough to experiment with an anatomically correct human doll you can buy at an adult-themed shopping site.

The thing I keep coming back to about the claim Israel has trained dogs to rape prisoners:
If true, shouldn’t every news organization (and researcher, animal behaviourist, etc.) be pursuing this groundbreaking discovery: that dogs can be trained to perform interspecies sexual assault? That what was once thought to be a biological instinct can actually be coerced? It would be an astounding discovery

@aziz0nomics Just because most of the backlash is slop doesn’t mean it all is
English
Before there was the anti-AI backlash, there was the anti-washing machine backlash.
A similar kind of stupid slop as we see today.

La danza folclórica circasiana es una de las expresiones culturales más distintivas, elegantes y rigurosas de la región del Cáucaso Norte.
Para el pueblo circasiano (o adigué), el baile no es un mero espectáculo folclórico, sino una forma de memoria corporal y un estricto código de etiqueta social (Xabze) que preserva su identidad frente a la historia y la diáspora.
Los hombres bailan completamente de puntillas sobre botas de cuero blando (sin refuerzo de yeso ni madera, a diferencia del ballet). Este paso veloz simula que el bailarín flota o desafía la gravedad, reflejando el control absoluto del cuerpo.
Las mujeres se mueven con pasos extremadamente cortos y sutiles. El efecto visual es que se deslizan suavemente por el suelo, manteniendo la cabeza y el torso completamente inmóviles, mientras mueven los brazos de forma tersa, asemejándose a alas de cisne o mariposa.

@EdrowScape @oddhanfoo @robbysoave @grok My understanding is that some are emitting infrasound/low frequency rumble while other are in the audible range - both cases typically at significant levels.
English
@oddhanfoo @knardsh @robbysoave @grok False. I can guarantee you diesel generators and roof-mounted HVAC at those facilities is generating external noise. My locality is capping dbA at 70 which is equivalent to a busy highway.

We need to have data centers. I don't know what else to tell you. We should have them without eminent domain or tax breaks or other forms of corporate welfare. But we are going to have them.

🚨Watch @mtracey GO HARD at @BretWeinstein, CHALLENGING him on his podcasts he's put out and commentary surrounding Epstein.
Tracey: "I'm saying we should have a social norm of some kind, so that you face some kind of penalty for putting out this stuff!"
Weinstein: "I should face a penalty?!"

@davidsirota @Tyler_A_Harper People don’t understand the noise level. In many cases it’s like a vacuum cleaner outside your window.

Data centers poll badly because nobody wants to live near noise & nobody likes their electricity bills going up, especially if those negative consequences also enrich tech oligarchs, kill off jobs, ruin kids' brains & produce stupid Internet videos. This isn't hard to understand.
The Washington Post@washingtonpost
A Gallup poll found that seven out of 10 Americans said they would oppose a data center being built near them. Opposition is so intense, the poll found, that more Americans would rather live near a nuclear power plant than a data center. wapo.st/48ZtSpE

@TheModerateCase It’s really a dumb quote if you think about it. Sometimes there are solutions. Sure they probably involve some kind of trade off. But then you just have both

The Daily Wire hosts are all absolutely horrible people who spread some of the most dishonest hyper partisan propaganda out there. Their fall off makes the world a much better place. Everyone should have the utmost contempt for these absolute scum.
New York Magazine@NYMag
There was a time, not very long ago, when Ben Shapiro could reasonably call himself the king of all conservative media. That’s all over now, writes political columnist Ross Barkan. Shapiro’s company, ‘The Daily Wire,’ is instituting significant layoffs. Its YouTube channel’s subscriber base is starting to shrink, and its website has emerged as one of the great traffic losers in conservative media. There are ‘Daily Wire’ YouTube videos that now, after a few days online, have less than 10,000 views, a catastrophically small number for a channel with more than 3 million subscribers. The top comments all mock the low view counts. “If a variety of poor business decisions can be blamed, in part, for the ‘Daily Wire’’s fall from grace — ill-fated investments in feature films, an epic fantasy series, and peculiar merchandise — the greater story is the collapse of Shapiro’s constituency,” writes Barkan. “There are two realities to Shapiro conservatism in 2026: It retains a significant foothold among Republican elites, and it is fast being rejected by the future grassroots of the party.” Read more: nymag.visitlink.me/KtpIKV
