Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

One of the stupidest things I've heard.

I also would like to attach the bluesky repost I found this from:

@leyawn.bsky.social‬ says: “is my calculator horny?“ our tech columnist asks. “i entered 5318008 into it and turned it upside down. what i saw surprised me” https://bsky.app/profile/leyawn.bsky.social/post/3lnldekgtik27

What kind of fluff "journalism" is this?

thanks. my first thought was, "are you fucking kidding me?"

but this is what all the money wants us to think about "AI", which is definitely not intelligence. they want everyone to accept that pattern recognition is indistinguishable from intelligence.

edit - alcohol makes me talk in cicles
