Watching the news about the fires in Canada and Tenerife... so sad and terrifying. Hope you're not to close @Headstall

It's absolutely horrifying. People are fleeing Yellowknife at this very moment, and there is now a state of emergency in British Columbia... only 150 miles from Vancouver!! 

The f'ing world is burning and climate deniers still spout their bullshit. Makes me angry... and makes me scared.

Hey, Tink.

OMG poor Yellowknife😢

Hey, Drew!   Any Yayo updates to share?

Aloha Drew

Omg something so gross just happened eww 

It's awfully hot so the window is open but the shutter is down with just the little holes to let some air in. 

I'm on the couch watching TV in just a t-shirt and my undies (that's important for thr rest of the story) when I hear someone talking. Nothing unusual being in the city except this time it's louder. I turn off the sound of the TV and someone is talking or more precisely singing by my window. I get up and what do I hear? Not only that guy is singing but he's pissing! Eww! Some gross drunk is pissing somewhere under my window beside my car!

But being half naked and alone I didn't dare make a move or noise in fear he'd try to push up the shutter

Hey, all!   Rain again.  

Hi Gary

Hopefully some rain near the fires too. Crossing fingers

Ummmm… no, that’s not what city living is about. 

[Bucket1]

Skynet is still some way off…

If the machines do take over it’s because we are stupid - Microsoft's experiments in AI seem to suggest that the Ottawa Food Bank is number 3 on the top tourist spots in Canada's capital. And bad news for Gary, the food bank out ranked ice hockey games 

[Albert1434]

Hopefully the rain will keep the fires down!

Speaking of AI, those "artworks" that are generated from photos? Instead of referring to photos of actual people, the AI software has started using artwork generated by other AI programs as a reference point. Yep, they're now inbreeding.

Scary. You live on the ground floor? I hope your window locks.

Copying the work copied from real human artists? I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised. 

The picture generation seem to be more advanced than the writing does. No authors here need worry just yet
