Some "news" sites are so annoying about their ads, I just close the tab and google for someone else's version of the story. I block sites that show up in my news feed often but display more nag than content. I'm sure in

I don't call AI slop. I call people uploading things with obvious errors in it slop. If you're taking the easy route by having an AI narrator, for example, please have the decency to listen to it, and respell words that get mispro

My pet peeve is lazy "documentaries" where the uploader doesn't even bother to edit their input text. This results in a lot of weird verbal errors that you'd never hear from an actual human speaker. They instantly distra

They are the kinds of "typo" that blew up the space shuttle, for one example of many. What if you mix up Ilium and Ileum? How about Malleus and Malleolus? These sound pretty similar, but rather are not.

I think the same will happen over time with the AI voice over slop that people don't bother correcting. These include weird pronunciations, missing punctuation that leads to weirdly intonated run-on sentences, pronounced abbreviations

"The digital world gave him something new control." Why do people not bother checking their AI voice overs and correct mistakes like this. It ruins the experience because it is so distracting. Humans don't make verbal mistake

YouTube will be so inundated by AI cat and dog videos that people stop watching them altogether. People will automatically assume anything labeled "cute" is fake.

Not sure how the Butthole Surfers relate (the name, I guess), but I used to listen to them a lot in the 90's. There was a period where their name was considered "too offensive" and their album sleeves were labeled "B.H.

I wish I could post a screen cap. I asked it to show me a neoclassical shred arpeggio lick. It described it correctly, but the graphic (tab? fretboard?) part of it was quite bonkers and seems to be completely unrelated to the description. S

The article mentions creatine in passing. But in what it says, I'm surprised the writer didn't add it to the list. Besides what it already (sort of) says, creatine also helps curb muscle aches caused by the type of temporary tissu

You might be joking, but you're not entirely wrong, either. Doing nothing means not spending. During that post-2008 angsty period of money just starting to roll in again, I "bought on the low" instead of going out every weeke

Sometimes ambergris washes up on shores. Anyone who finds it can get pretty wealthy all of a sudden. But these "sea snot" algae outbreaks are so disappointing and gross by comparison. You definitely won't mistake one for the

Likewise, baby boomers were born between 1946 and 1964. They are called boomers because they were born in the baby boom that occurred after WWII. So a 51 year old is most definitely Gen X and not a Boomer. No matter what. Kids born in the m

You are right. I do hope Zelenksy noticed the sudden caveats he added a few days ago, too. Same thing - Trump wants many billions in resources, yet "can't" guarantee anything in return. Russia immediately responded by saying

It also took the White House being set on fire to understand the sovereignty of the land across its northern border. And now there's all this Trump talk of trying to invade once again.
