People are getting paid for #publishing #AI-written #books, in an #author's name, when in fact the author did not, and knew nothing about this happening.
Then, when the author tries to do something about it to stop this obvious #abuse, they are told no.

@dMjolnir96 I like to add a "view results" placeholder option to my polls, so that people who are not addressed in them don't end up tilting the results.
Hopefully Mastodon will add a way to show results without having to vote, that would be very useful, and I think some fediverse platforms might even have it already.
@gesus I would like to know the answer to this poll (I can't vpte as it isn't my job)

You know when you have a video loop, but to make it loop something disappears in an improbable manner?
And you think, that's a shame, because I really like this little clip.
And you could crop it so, for example, a bird doesn't disappear in mid-flight, but then it looks unbalanced so you need to find some unobtrusive way for the bird to disappear so it appears natural?
Yeah. That.
I think I need a quiet lie down.

@TomGauld hits the nail on the head - the corporate #climatechange deniers have their PR strategies in place... the pivot is coming
@trinsec He is getting a lot better. TBH, I have seen worse tantrums in adults when they realise they made a mistake...
Just spent 20 minutes with my 9 y.o. trying to explain to him how important it is to say sorry to yourself and admit that a poor choice was made.
He has a tendency to blame everyone else and refuse to back down even when you (and he) knows he is wrong.
We started small, based around a decision he made in a board game ( #Munchkin). Instead of blaming another player and trying to invent a rule loophole, he just needed to say to himself, "I did not read that card properly, and I wasted it." Following up with saying to everyone else, "Whoops. I guess I misread that card!" Instead he got angry, blamed us both and rage quit the game. Sad times.
I reminded him how important it is to forgive yourself. No one is going to tease you for admitting you made a mistake. No one is going to be upset if you only realise you made a mistake *after* you lost your temper, but then apologise and admit you made a mistake.
Something he can work on, anyway.
Anyone know why my iPod Classic will only charge at a PC/Playstation or dock and not by a powerbank or plugged wall charger? #iPodClassic #iPod #charging

@jezlyn The ending to that read! 👏👏👏
@jezlyn Me too! Although I think it was because I am walking more around Bangkok than I walked at home in Australia.

So be careful when posting photos, even if location EXIF has been scrubbed! #photography
