So, finally, after a lot of exporting and tracking down of missing articles (200 as of this morning, 0 at the moment) I've managed to migrate all my old articles over.
Headache after headache.
This, and a few other display issues, and it's almost to where it was when I began. Of course, it needs a pretty banner, a few tweaks here and there, but, by and large the tech side of it has been handled, and with a half hour a day in a week or so it should look OK.
If you were wondering, that's where I've been. Working on that bollocks, and in Williams Lake...

This makes me laugh...

There's hope yet...I mean, the Canadian government should under no circumstances allow them back. They can be the propaganda arm of the great Mother Russia and lure the over half of Alberta that voted for Danielle Smith and "think for themselves" crew...
Now, you can see where this is going...

And - despite my laughing at all the ridiculous shit Facebook is throwing at me, there's the very real concern - AI is still in it's idiocy stage, garbage in, garbage out, but soon - maybe a year, maybe 2 or three, the results are going to start to be indistinguishable from reality. An AI hallucination of the worst sort. And all the possibilities of the internet - already hard enough to find good information - all these things are going to be destroyed.
There will be a very big market for a carefully curated internet that deals in facts and realities, whereas of late it's become a cesspool of clearly deranged AI hallucinations. And a market for an internet that delivers human generated results.
On the upside, (and you'll see this from all the "Follow Me" posts I get) - there's going to be a reckoning coming for every "Model", "Influencer", "Artist" and "Pornstar" that's going to require them to get clothes, a personality, a job and a life.
That won't be a bad thing...
Artificial Idiocy...

This is a whole shit-ton of idiocy fed to me courtesy of Facebook the last couple of weeks.
I say idiocy because - well, while there is a lot to be admired there's a lot that's still not there.
It's not just limited to Facebook, I've noticed my "news feed" is starting to come up with AI generated articles that - from the headlines at least - make no sense whatsoever.
So I'll lead with those. Expect a humorous and scathing review of each beneath.
Beginning with Facebook's carefully censored ads:
Now, they got the audience right, who doesn't want a big pile of counterfeit cash?
And I can't see anything going wrong there.
Now, the "Read More" is there to protect you from a lot of CGI girls that Facebook thinks I want to follow, a few bogus "news" articles, and the "Cabin Crew" lot, which whenever I think I've seen it all finds ways to surprise me...
