BRAINTREE, Mass. — A Martha's Vineyard man who is accused of going on a stabbing spree along the South Shore of Massachusetts and wanted in connection with a Connecticut homicide is being held without bail after appearing in court on Tuesday, where a judge ordered that he be sent to a state hospital for evaluation. Jared Ravizza, 26, of Chilmark, faces multiple charges in Plymouth District Court, including two counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and assault with intent to murder in connection with the stabbing of two employees at a rest area McDonald's on Saturday. He also faces four counts of assault to murder and four counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon in Quincy District Court in connection with the stabbing of four girls in a movie theater that same day. Connecticut State Police said charges are pending in the case of a homicide that was also discovered on Saturday. He wore no shoes Tuesday morning as troopers escorted him to court where, after a brief hearing, the mental health evaluation was ordered. After a few hours, a doctor told the court that Ravizza does appear to have delusions, trouble focusing and voices in his head that tell him to do things. Ravizza was sent to Bridgewater State Hospital for additional evaluation over the next 20 days. Plymouth County District Attorney Tim Cruz said Ravizza is next scheduled to appear in court on June 17. |

The judge also chastised Salame for pulling $5 million in cryptocurrencies out of FTX as the exchange was failing. “You tried to withdraw tens of millions more,” Kaplan said. “It was me first. I’m getting in the lifeboat first. To heck with all those customers.” Salame apologized to FTX customers and his family, saying that he and others had good intentions, though he added: “I fully understand that the means I sought to achieve these goals were illegal.” Before he was sentenced, Salame gave brief remarks saying he was “beginning my path to redemption.” “I accept what’s next,” he said. |

One absolute banger of a Google AI-promoted health tip is the recommendation that "eating ass can boost your immune system" — this was in response to the query "health benefits of eating ass" — a claim that Google's AI says is supported by a 2018 study by the University of California, Santa Barbara. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There's no research to back up the Google AI's added claim that "people who eat ass are 33 percent less likely to catch airborne illnesses," although the line that really gives away the robot's lack of judgment is the note that "people with higher levels of truffle butter" — sexual slang that you may look up yourself, if you absolutely must — "in their saliva have stronger immunity" to common airborne ailments. |

Other more humorous Overview mistakes include various ill-advised cooking claims, like the suggestion that gasoline can be used to make a "spicy spaghetti dish," or the widely-shared proposition that pizza chefs might consider mixing glue — yes, glue — into their sauce to ensure that the pizza cheese doesn't slip off. As netizens quickly pointed out, the latter claim appears to be sourced from an 11-year-old Reddit comment posted by a user named "Fucksmith." So far, Google's AI is getting a negative score for media literacy. |

Elsewhere, the AI was seen spouting nonsensical math equations designed to help users figure out exactly how many sisters they already have (the AI's final answer: 680 sisters, because this person must be the child of Genghis Khan.) It was also telling users to eat "at least one small rock a day," and still doesn't think that any countries in Africa start with the letter "K." like reprogramming the biome to write xltronic posts for me with matkatgik |

Many of the responses weren't quite so funny. Take this AI Overview, flagged by Nieman Lab's Sarah Scire. When asked how many Muslim presidents have led the US, Google's AI told Scire, falsely, that "Barack Obama is the first Muslim President." The AI also went on to say that current President Joe Biden has "no formal religious affiliation." Neither of these statements are true. Obama is a self-described Christian and attended Protestant churches; Biden is Catholic. in my opinion, the AI is right here |
||||||||
|
|

|

To that end, it could also be argued that AI Overview makes Google liable for possible harms in ways that it may not have been liable in the past. By introducing its text-regurgitating tool, it's no longer just a content aggregator or host, but is also a content creator. Spouting conspiracy theories, or offering glue-laced recipes, has a different set of consequences when you're presenting it as paraphrased fact, and not just as a blue link to a bad source on a results page. i've been saying this for a long damn time but who listens to lil ol me |

It's incredible, really. Google controls over 80 percent of total search marketshare, making it the go-to gateway to the internet for the vast majority of global internet users. Search is also an incredibly lucrative product, printing the billions that Google is now pouring into its AI endeavors. And now, because of those costly AI efforts, Google's golden goose is imploding. The Goose Brand™ |

Now Google finds itself between a rock and a hard place. Halting its AI search experiment would be a terrible look for management; at the same time, it's unclear if Google can even fix the problems that clearly plague what's an objectively bad product. In the meantime, the internet continues to crumble. Dumpster fires everywhere. Anyway! Anyone in the mood for pizza? i ordered pizza after the reporter literally ate glue. elvish impersonator is an unglued card and it's not a legal card so it is not in my deck, so there is no glue in my pizza, and if the AI tells you to eat rocks for your health, well, i've never actually thought about what that would do. i might try it actually |

After ordering two packs of 11-inch, rope-woven storage cubes from Amazon.com recently, I found that the resulting cubes were, in fact, 11-by-10.5-by-10.5 inches. Alas, they weren’t what I expected. I elected to return both sets. Thus began the latest of my ill-fated journeys through logistics at what strives to be “Earth’s most customer-centric company.” The system promised to be easy: First I’d set up the return within the Amazon app, then scan the QR code it gave me at a self-serve kiosk in my local (Amazon-owned) Whole Foods Market store. After that, I’d simply load my items into a proffered poly bag, print off a mailing label, and drop the package in a chute that the kiosk would unlock for me. If only life could be so simple. Upon arrival at the Whole Foods, I discovered that I couldn’t fit both of the items I wanted to return into a single poly bag. With a line forming behind me, I panicked and decided to regroup at home, where I would begin the process over again, this time as two returns, one for each pack of not-quite-cubes. When I went back to the kiosk a few days later, I couldn’t fit even a single pack of storage cubes into a poly bag. Luckily, the cubes were still in their plasticized wrapper, so I applied the labels directly to the packaging. But then I accidentally used the same QR code for both items—a fatal error, it turned out. Didn’t this used to be much easier? |

Amidst their efforts to accomplish that reduction, some have tweaked their free returns to make them slightly less-than-free; others have been warning customers away from suspect purchases, or clamping down on fraud. And according to experts I spoke with, the biggest online retailers have, over time, revised, modified, and amended the logistics processes that they’re using for returns. All those small changes have started to compound. What used to be a simple system for consumers is getting more complex. And customers like me have begun to notice. |

SEOUL, May 29 (Reuters) - South Korea accused North Korea on Wednesday of sending a large number of balloons across their heavily fortified border to drop objects including trash and excrement, calling the act base and dangerous. The military's explosives ordnance unit and chemical and biological warfare response team were deployed to inspect and collect the objects, and an alert was issued warning residents to keep away and report any sightings to authorities. By Wednesday afternoon, more than 260 balloons had been detected, and most of them have landed on the ground, the Joint Chiefs of Staff said. Photographs released by the South Korean military showed inflated balloons with plastic bags tied to them. Other images appeared to show trash strewn around collapsed balloons, with the word "excrement" written on a bag in one photograph. Yonhap news agency said some of the balloons contained animal faeces. |

Balloons have regularly been sent the other way by South Korean activists, often led by North Korean defectors. North Korea has reacted angrily to those balloons, which usually carry anti-Pyongyang leaflets, mini radios, food and USB memory sticks with K-pop music videos and dramas. |

Surveillance video from the McArdle's home shows an Amazon driver arriving 20 minutes after the first signs of smoke. The video shows the driver opened the garage, walked through the smoke, placed the package and then left without alerting anyone. "It's a little disturbing to know this could have been prevented," McArdle said. "If you see a fire, maybe call 911 or the fire department before you go on to your next delivery." It took another three and a half hours before a passerby noticed the flames and called 911. Fire crews from 10 towns spent four hours extinguishing the fire. The damage to the house was extensive, with the Amazon package ending up as a soggy, smoky mess like the rest of the house. When the McArdles contacted Amazon about the incident, they were met with resistance. "The customer service lady said I spoke to two managers, and they're not willing to take your call because it wasn't their fault with the fire," McArdle said. "Again, it wasn't to place blame, it was really more of an educational piece. Like, 'Hey maybe you can use this information to teach your drivers a little bit better, if you see something, say something, especially a fire,'" calling 911 to save your house is not my job lady. fuck off |

And I guess the last thing I would say about this is that this actually isn’t a new problem for Sam. And if you look at some of the reporting that that has come out since November. It’s come out that he was actually fired from his previous job at Y Combinator, which was hushed up at the time. And then at, you know, his job before that, which was his only other job in Silicon Valley, his startup Loopt, apparently the management team went to the board there twice and asked the board to fire him for what they called deceptive and chaotic behavior. If you actually look at his track record, he doesn’t exactly have a glowing trail of references. This wasn’t a problem specific to the personalities on the board, as much as he would love to portray it that way. |

Xltronic is not a sacred space, but at the same time it's like epic comes into threads just to open up a bag of complete trash and dump it all over the place. Because he doesn't like it here and doesn't like the people here. No one wants to actually read anything he writes (it is mostly illegible and *always* lacking in thesis) and then the thread just dies, or becomes about his garbage bags. Russell's little friendly pocket of space now has epic's soda o'rings and pizza boxes floating around and all the fishies went to heaven. |

so not like... always just... wait... how did... alright, let's try again. ok that's... wait... how did i need to get used to this before it can be a flow thing. for now it works in targeted pockets. i'm thinking about the thermodynamics of home domiciles. i think we've gone too far. i don't think you want to seal everything up with hermetic goop. a house needs to breathe. but we need to calculus the forces involved, hmm |
