I got some beautiful fucking mugs but FUCK lmao

the kiln over fired everything on the bottom shelf apparently because everything from that shelf (my mugs) got at least one flaw

but this mug turned out fucking hilarious with the flaw

it’s so much funnier than the original

Sneha Solanki  ‘The Lovers’

Two networked machines, one infected with a virus, slowly infects the other through the interface of classic romantic poetry.

A breakdown in the relationship was inevitable once the virus had seeped into the memory of one machine and then into the other through a singular network cable affecting the poetic text files. Communication between the two deteriorated, leading to irrational & at times odd behaviour. Each machine reacted with equal confusion and conflict. The interface text became an illegible poetic mutation of itself.

[ID: two gifs showing the screens of the machines. on the left the first half of the love poem reads ‘The Lovers. Where, oh! Where, on his restless wing/ hath the spirit of love been wondering? I have been where passionate hearts/ beat high beneath the glow of an eastern /heav'n, And break with wild intensity.’ The poem continues on the right screen ‘so deep in love am i and i will love thee/ still my dear, Till a’ the seas gang dry and the rocks/ melt wi’ the sun/ I will love thee still, my dear/ while the sands o'life shall run.’ the text is shown in bright red on a black background. it gets progressively more corrupted until it is ineligible. finally an error message is shown on screen.

Your reaction to chatGPT instantly lets me know how easy it would be to trick you into thinking that you are haunted

"omg it's literally alive!" Two beers, 45 minutes, deck of tarot cards, and I'm charging you 350$ for an exorcism.

"I read an article that it's showing simple self-awareness" two days, mild preparation, hot and cold reading, I can get 60$ for joints laced with sacred sage

"I just spoke to an AI and I'm... rattled to say the least, come with me on this dark journey" twenty minutes. I've got to science it up for you, but I can get you to come back every week to "disentangle the psychological imprint" for 125$

Oh this! 

I learned to speak Chinese with a Dongbei accent because I used to live not far from the OP (which definitely gets me weird looks as a white lady originally from Kansas.) Native Mandarin speakers are often SO confused by my accent. But yes...Taiwanese speakers do sound really melodic and beautiful. And I sound like I’m angry shouting all the time. 

In Germany and Austria, the Swiss are well-known for speaking Scweizerdeutsch. For reasons unknown, they use diminutive forms of a ton of nouns. The result is that Swiss people speaking German sound like if you found a city in Appalachia where it was 100% normal to baby-talk to everyone, all the time.

On the flip side, no one can understand a goddamn thing coming out of a Viennese person's mouth.

The dialect variance within the German language is insane at times

This is not exactly a new thing tho - here have a video from 1973 about it:
