Ultimately, she spent 20 hours redoing the copy from scratch — and with her $100-per-hour rate, that meant her client was shelling out $2,000 for copy that likely would have ended up being far cheaper had a human just written it in the first place.
The plan by the tech bros was to ingrain learned helplessness with basic tasks and then start charging like hell for every token. Companies who ordered people to start using AI for stupid shit are now paying the price for that.
Meanwhile those of us who all along were going "Ew" to AI slop continue to work uninterrupted.

Basically, Mr grifter announced that he might be getting into the collecting side of yugioh, which would lead to the scalping hell that now plagues the Pokémon and One Piece TCGs
As a joke, MBTYugioh gave them pointers on what to “invest in”, recommending some of the WORST shit products that this game released in the years
He then followed up with a tongue-in-cheek, clearly trolling video recommending shit like Legendary Duelists sets, Duelist of Deep and Synchro Storm, and the Platinum cards, and exclusive COINS before ending the video with “Don’t invest in yugioh. You will lose money due to this game’s reprint policies”
Like, it was very obvious for anyone with half-a-brain cell and is familiar with Yugioh that the video is a joke
BUT a bunch of scalping bots took the video at face value and bought out these doodoo, worthless products immediately after his fuckass video came out
Now they’re sitting on unsellable trash. 100% deserved, I hope everyone whose trying to grift this game like Pokémon loses their money
maybe i like pulling out my debit card instead of using apple pay. maybe i like untangling my wired headphones. maybe i like typing something into the search bar instead of using siri or whatever. maybe i like curating my own social media feeds over an algorithm. i just don’t think everything has to be perfectly streamlined and efficient i like it when things feel tethered to the real world.
this has been in my drafts forever because I have a huge rant for it that I haven't had the energy to type out, but I think I finally do
There is one issue with this whole thing and that is: none of these things that tech bros are advertising are actually inconvenient, and in most cases they're the exact opposite.
Setting up apple pay (in my experience) is a hassle, and is a security vulnerability (the more companies directly connected to your bank, the more likely it is to get hacked), all for what? So you can take 3 less seconds taking out and swiping/inserting a card?
Untangling wired headphones? A hassle sure. Not as much of a hassle as losing only one ear pod, or one ear pod consistently dying faster than the other, or pairing issues, or worse sound quality at a higher price because it's wireless. How is any of that more convenient? It's like the same amount of convenience
Or how about siri and google always missing hearing what you say? Censoring swears despite being an adult? Going off when you don't say it's name?
Having algorithms currate your own feed leading to echo chambers, and radicalization pipelines, and making it harder to find the stuff you want,with yts new horrible search algorithm etc etc
None of these are more convenient, they're the same amount or worse. But guess what? They make money. So they're sold as convenient.
Next time you see a product that advertises that it's "convenient" ask for a moment what convenience are you actually getting? And is it comproable to that you already have?

[My Asks box is open for Questions and Art Requests! Please go fill it up, I’ve just finished Uni so need some ideas for doodles. Anon is on too, if you’re shy!]
A breakdown on designs!:
Every character has a primary and secondary colour out of a list of 10 (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Navy, Pink, White, Black, Brown) [no purple, since purple was a very exclusive pigment in this era]. Each Primary colour represents a character strength (based on the positive connotation of the colour), and the secondary represents a potential weakness (based on negative connotations).
Enjolras is inspired, as per, by greek marble statues, especially statues of Apollo. Primary colour Black, secondary colour Red.
Combeferre I wanted to appear neat and smart, kind of sharp, but still approachable. Primary colour Navy, secondary colour Orange.
Courfeyrac was funny bc I referenced George Blagden’s hair in 2012 Les Mis despite him being Grantaire in that lol. I gave him more soft/unruly curls than Enjolras to give him a more human vibe while Enj is more unnaturally perfect. Primary colour Yellow, secondary colour Pink
Bahorel I based on fire. A lot. He’s bold and he’s passionate so I wanted him to look really striking. He has a lazy eye as well! I hc him to have met Grantaire through boxing, he has permanent injury from this that caused this lazy eye. Its not as obvious in this drawing bc of the angle, but it’s there. Primary colour Red, secondary colour Navy.
Feuilly I wanted to appear friendly and approachable but still independent and not AS cheerful as Courf for example. I gave him a sash in red and white which represents poland and matches his blue colour scheme well enough to also represent France! Primary colour Blue, secondary colour White.
Grantaire I’ve already had nailed down for a while in my head. He’s rough around the edges, visibly ragged to contrast with Enjolras’ smooth perfection while next to eachother. He has messed up teeth and a few scars from boxing. I personally hc Grantaire as half-Romani. Primary colour Brown, secondary colour Green
Jehan I wanted to branch out of the very common lighter hair designs I see, not bc I dislike them just bc I wanted to see if I could achieve the soft and kind look without resorting to a light hair colour. I hc them as genderqueer personally, so I refer to them with They/He, more commonly They, and I imagine my Amis would do the same and wouldn’t think twice about it (since I hc them as such a queer friendgroup. Primary colour Green, secondary colour Blue
Joly and Bossuet were designed in tandem to match. I wanted them to have contrasting shape language and they’ll also contrast in body build, with Bahorel more round and Joly more sharp. They have flowers in eachother’s primary colours. Joly’s Primary colour Orange, secondary colour Yellow. Bossuet’s Primary colour Pink, secondary colour Brown.
Marius ISN’T technically an Ami, I know, but I wanted to include him all the same since he is with them a lot. Soft hair, heart motifs. I wanted him to have a very young and kind of ditsy vibe. Primary colour White, secondary colour Black (the Amis and Cosette bring colour into his life)
Thats all for now! I said above but please fire me drawing requests in the ask box, especially for the Amis, but I’ll take for anything and anyone!! I just wanna draw for this rn and I have no ideas lol.
Usual disclaimer: THESE DESIGNS WILL CHANGE!! I’ve got some things I already wanna tweak, I just wanted to have something so I could start to draw the Amis
Heinrich Heine's report on the identification of fallen insurgents from the June 5-6 uprising:
"On that day, the eighth of June, so many people thronged ot the morge that there was as long a queue formed as when "Robert le Diable" is to be given at the Opera. I had to wait an hour ere I could enter, and so had time enough to look at that melancholy building, which looks like agreat pile of stones. I do not know what is the meaning of the yellow tablet of wood with a blue centre like a Brazilian cockade, which hangs before the door*. The number of the house is twenty-one. It was sad enough when within to see how anxiously some people looked at the corspes, seeking what they feared to find. There were indeed two agonising scenes. A boy found his dead brother, and stood silent in grief, as if rooted to the spot. A young girl discovered her dead lover, screamed, and swooned. As I knew her, I had the sad task to carry the poor disconsolate creature home. She was employed in a magasin de modes in my neighborhood, where eight young ladies are employed, all of whom are républicaines. Their lovers are all young republicans. I am in this establishment the only Royalist."
*I believe that this indicates a hospital, or that the place is under civic sanitary control —Translator.
(Trans. Charles Godfrey Leland)
Robert le Diable is an opera by Giacomo Meyerbeer and Eugène Scribe, which Heine apparently did not like very much, if his poem "Ja freilich du bist mein Ideal" is to be believed. It was a sensation at the time for its thrilling plot, featuring pacts with the devil and a ballet of sinful ghostly nuns.
As for the people Heine encounters — I wonder if anyone has tried to potray them as characters from Les Miserables before, in art or writing. Who could they be: Gavroche and Eponine's brothers? A sibling of one of the other Amis? Muschietta? Bahorel's mysterious laughing mistress, bereft of mirth? There are numerous possibilities.
As for the historical account, I'm really touched by this quiet show of cross-class solidarity between this working-class woman and the distinctly more bourgeois Heine, who despite his various infirmities was not beyond helping his neighbor get home.
#heine may or may not be exaggerating about being a royalist#he probably *is* a moderate as he claims to be at this point but he's never terribly gung-ho about the monarchy either#as a political commentator he's the kind of sniper who fires in all directions#and his work is definitely more left-wing in the 1840s than in the 1830s#so who's to say?#me after I do more reading that's who (OP's tags)
They saw what happened to their neighbours, the Great Andamanese, Jarawa, Onge and Jangil peoples, who did interact with Europeans. There were between 2000-6000 Great Andamanese, now there's 59. The Onge have gone from around 672 in 1901 to less than 100 today. The Jangil disappeared completely in the early 1900s.
No wonder the Sentinelese want nothing to do with outsiders.

Anyway, homie is, like all wealthy white dudes, egregiously imperfect, but he’s definitely fucking trying. So in that regard, he’s valuable because he’s reaching audiences that you personally probably wouldn’t be able to reach, and if you find he has specific stuff on topics you need to persuade people on, he’s a valuable avenue.
