Pelkey’s sister, Stacey Wales, told the BBC last year the family had used voice recordings, videos and pictures to recreate him for the AI video.

“To Gabriel Horcasitas, the man who shot me, it is a shame we encountered each other that day in those circumstances,” said the AI version of Pelkey in court in 2025. “In another life, we probably could have been friends.”

“I believe in forgiveness, and a God who forgives. I always have and I still do,” the AI version of Pelkey - wearing a grey baseball cap - continued.

What a weird thing to do.

Should it technically be called WSG and not WSL?

WSL is really useful. These days I have to bounce around between Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and MacOS, so the fewer OS-specific commands I need to learn, the better. Running Debian inside WSL saves me from having to properly learn PowerShell.

Soon all the most useful bits of Windows will be Linux.

They won’t.

They did.

Europe bows to US pressure to release oil reserves

Trump’s people aren’t even admitting that the USA started this war. They seem to be trying to build a narrative in which the USA is simply defending itself from Iran’s attacks. The fact that the USA attacked Iran first is no longer considered a fact.

Does anyone believe him?

Acquaintance with native culture, literature, customs and moral guidelines is more important than “memorizing letters and numbers.”

Kind of sounds like a recipe for your country going down the shitter fast.

Also, the games are designed to educate children “heroism”, which in the materials of the project is defined as “the highest manifestation of love for the Motherland and people” and “willingness to sacrifice themselves for the sake of others.”

Teaching young kids to accept their place as cannon fodder once they’re big enough. It’s very sad.

Looks like they just pasted their entire long exchange with Claude, with no editing for humans, and expected humans to read it. Which is kind of the whole problem with AI slop.

True. I added kidnapping into my list.

“Negotiated” - and all it took was a bit of bombing and shooting and kidnapping and forced regime change and oil theft. It’s like the school bully announcing they’ve negotiated a deal whereby the nerds will give them their lunch money.

Does it include the truth about Israel’s genocide of Palestinians? Or is it still terrorism to speak that?

I don’t think today’s bots take any notice of robots.txt. It’s a relic from a more civilized time.

Or they could try Lake Ontario.

That seems plausible, and it would make sense of an otherwise puzzling situation.

I find it can speed me up, but it’s very easy to become lazy and find myself asking the AI to do things I could do perfectly well myself, quickly and using far less electricity. And then before I know it I have a huge pile of slop that I don’t know my way around, and I spend the time on the other end trying to understand and check it all. It feels amazing up front, but you pay later.

They did, but they knew they could make money out of it anyway.

I mean… aren’t hackers the target audience for Raspberry Pis?

They used to be. But for the last few years it has looked less and less like that.

Their excuse definitely smells like bullshit. It just seems they want to do the Apple thing of making sure they get the money for the upgrade, plus a premium. Except even Apple has a technical reason they don’t allow upgrades, which Raspberry Pi doesn’t.
