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."

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.

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.

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
