Per The Information magazine, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has cut back Microsoft's Artificial Intelligence goals. Spending in AI data centers have reportedly been cut by as much as 50%. The reasoning deduced is that users prefer ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini.
However, Microsoft stated to journalists at Futurism: "The Information’s story inaccurately combines the concepts of growth and sales quotas, aggregate sales quotas for AI products have not been lowered."
tldr Microsoft says they're not cutting back due to people not using it or being able to find sales. They're cutting back because ???

I don't know a single person who uses Copilot. Quite literally everyone uses ChatGPT or Claude. Microsoft somehow fucked up the entrance into the AI era despite heavily investing on OpenAI.

There is a restaurant in the United States called "Waffle House". Waffle House is notorious for it's poor customer service, history of violence breaking out in the restaurant, it being open primarily in dangerous areas, and it also being open during severe weather events.
Waffle House is typically open during severe hurricanes and tornadic weather. The restaurants willingness to remain open during potentially life threatening weather has resulted in meteorologists creating a scale which measures weather severity based on whether or not Waffle House is open.
Despite the restaurants poor reputation, it has a cult like following in the United States. People go to the restaurant expecting poor service because the restaurant is ridiculously affordable and the food is pretty good.
One time I visited Waffle House with a friend. When we were waiting on our food the staff became frustrated with a customer who had locked themselves in the bathroom. Eventually one of the cooks busted down the door. They discovered the customer, a homeless looking person, was overdosing on narcotics on the floor.
While eating our food, EMTs and police officers were performing CPR on the customer. Staff were arguing about the door being broken. Nobody eating seemed bothered by the situation unfolding. It was a surreal experience.
This situation is not unique to me. If you take a moment of your time to lookup Waffle House footage online you'll see hundreds of videos depicting situations similar to mine.
I recommend everyone visit Waffle House.

I'm tired of the spam on X. If you're going spam my DMs with fake AI girls, or stolen photos from Instagram, just give me the malware, bro. Don't play games.
It's sickening.
Please just give me the malware.

There are objective truths and emotional truths.
Sometimes people will (intentionally or unintentionally) overlook evidence because they want a story to be true.
tl;dr dumb made up story, probably AI slop, regarded as true by people all across the internet because it "feels" true.
In November, 2025 there was widespread coverage of "hundreds" of stray cats infiltrating a Bitcoin mining facility in Inner Mongolia* and allegedly costing the Bitcoin mine owner several million dollars. The original author of the post included a photo of a dozen or so cats sitting on so-called cryptomining hardware machines.
This story is not true. There is a lot of evidence to support this.
- Story originated from a Facebook page titled, "StoryTime"
- "StoryTime" shares a lot of AI art
- No company stated
- No additional information provided other than strange photo of cats
- Inaccurate depiction of cryptomining facility (see subsequent images)
- Story doesn't make sense
- Cryptomining is banned in Inner Mongolia
The original post asserts cats have some how broken into a cryptomining facility in Inner Mongolia. There they remained undetected for weeks, "multiplied", and comfortably nested on cryptomining machines. Inner Mongolia has banned cryptomining because there is a desire to reduce their carbon footprint.
While it's technically possible for all of these things to be true, it would be outrageous for an illegally operated Bitcoin cryptomining facility to be unaware of "hundreds" of cats in their facility for weeks. It amplifies the absurdity when you consider that this Mongolian facility decided to photograph their illegal operation and exclusively share the details on it with an English-speaking Facebook page which does not typically discuss cryptocurrency.
The "news report" concludes by writing the Bitcoin mine owner "loves cats" so he purchased "several hundred" warming beds for the cats.
If you take a moment to consider what I've just written, and review the information provided, it's pretty obvious this story is fake. Unfortunately, this completely made up story ended up in semi-large cryptocurrency news websites. It was shared all over Facebook, Reddit, and X. I had a dozen or so people tag me and suggest I share it online and comment about it. Out of the millions, upon millions, of engagements the story received, only a very small minority of people questioned the validity of the story.

Is the United States government ran by a bunch of fucking morons? People on BlueSky discovered that some of the Epstein documents were visually redacted but remained selectable. In other words, using Python you can un-redact some of the Epstein files.
I don't know if I want to share the unredacted documents because I haven't reviewed them. I don't want to expose a person who has been a victim of sex trafficking.
If you want to look more into it yourself, go down the rabbit hole here: https://www.reddit.com/r/law/comments/1ptlms6/some_epstein_files_can_be_unredacted/

"To deliver gifts to every child, Santa must travel incredibly fast, roughly 4.7 to 5.4 million kilometers per hour (3 million mph), which is about 0.5% the speed of light, requiring him to visit ~1,900 houses per second, but using time zones and relativity allows for magical solutions, like stopping time or using multiple sleighs, otherwise, air resistance would vaporize him."

Oh yeah? Santa isn't real? Then who comes down the chimney, eats the cookies, and gives the carrots to the reindoor?
You seriously think nearly every person on the planet is hiding the truth and is involved in this conspiracy?
Uh huh, sure. Santa non-believers make me SICK

Santa doesn't go to "poor" countries because he's several hundred years old and overflowing with CLASSISM.
He's real, but he is steaming with prejudice against the poor. He's a real jerk.
