Rekt.

I have a good friend who used to work on the security gate of a military airfield. They regularly would get some five star general, having waited in line, saying "Have you any idea who I am" to which the reply from the security team was to announce loudly "Excuse me everyone - this gentleman seems to be confused who he is. Can anyone help him?"

At which point they would do a thorough security check on his vehicle "Can you take your luggage out of the boot sir. Can you open them" - you get the drift!

Only the foolish fuck with security staff.

AI generated casting of the next Quentin Tarantino movie:

Bonus, if one can call it that:

Speaking of man made horrors, this is Derna, Libya:

[Knuckledragger]

A cursed mix of AI,Photoshop, politics and professional wrestling:

AI clearly thinks Joe Biden is Ric Flair.

 

[Craig Sawyers]

The horrors of Derna, with an estimated >20,000 dead as a result of two poorly maintained dams bursting, is alas a direct result of a state ruled over by two opposing political parties and inevitable lack of maintenance of infrastructure.

That said, there have been apocalyptic storms battering central Europe and North Africa over the last month or so

Anyone seen a plane around here?

 

I found it!

DJTJ's Twitter got hax0red.

The tell was that he was making more sense than usual.

[Dusty Chalk]

Trumps are allowed to have Twitter accounts?

That's creepy as fuck, because it seems so likely!

[blessingx]

'cause it came out a couple years back, failed, and was called Meta Portal.

Finally AI is put to proper use

Edit: never mind, this got taken down. It was a series of videos about Warhammer 40k lore narrated by an AI of David Attenborough, and it was amazing. Sadly, the BBC hates humor, happiness, and kittens.

Dianne Feinstein couldn't stay standing long enough to appear on the game cover. In spite of this, she has repeatedly insisted that she is featured prominently on the cover art and has been since "the Atari version."

Chuck Grassley was scheduled to appear, but arrived early for the sitting, spent 45 minutes lecturing the artist on his use of "blurry" paints, refused to acknowledge that he was wearing his readers and not his bifocals, and then left in a huff.

In spite of his tragic passing in a 2010 plane crash, the late Alaska Senator Ted Stevens is an unlockable character attainable after beating the extremely difficult "Series of Tubes" level.

Game developer SeniorSoft has yet to issue a statement on the widely reported and repeatable bug of the game restarting to the title screen when Senator Mitch McConnell first appears.

I have ...questions.

There's a new AI generated meme, pizzagator.  It started when someone posted this series of 3 images to the Midjourney subreddit asking if the images were real or AI generated.  While the OP was almost assuredly trolling, the post went viral and to the top of reddit.

 

That was two days ago.  In the fast moving world of the internet and AI generated images, a lot as transpire.

I know it wasn't the author's intention, but this one almost looks like blackface.

 

I have no idea how a picture of Trump kissing a pig got into this set, but I'm leaving it.

 

It's impressive how badly AI fucked up that pizza.

 

 

[mikeymad]

thx for keeping an eye on the internets Knucks. 

Dang - now I want some pizza.

So a handfull of crazies believe the emergency system test

On Oct 4th  on tv,radio,and phones will trigger a response

from  anyone who took the shot. Why are major media 

outlets not ignoring this. Maybe a half percent of people

Believe this nonsense. And you can't change their mind,

so why bother? Don't label it misinformation. It's crazy talk.

Just be blunt and move on.
