Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Thursday Overnight Open Thread - March 12, 2026 [Doof]![]() Gordie Howe Bridge tolls - beauty, eh? Gordie Howe Bridge announces toll prices significantly lower than Ambassador Bridge, Detroit-Windsor Tunnel The Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority has announced toll prices for the upcoming Gordie Howe International Bridge. The new bridge connects I-75 in Detroit to Highway 401 in Ontario. The Detroit Regional Chamber called it “the most consequential infrastructure project in the state.” The Gordie Howe Bridge is owned by Michigan and Canada, but is being paid for almost entirely by Canada. While the bridge does not have an official opening date, it is still expected to open to traffic this spring. On Wednesday, March 11, the Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority announced both the toll prices and Breakaway, a toll discount program that allows vehicles to pass through toll lanes without having to stop and pay. With Breakaway, the toll for passenger vehicles is less than half the current price to cross the Ambassador Bridge and the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel, both of which raised their tolls this year.----- AI is asshoe Sam Altman admits AI is killing the labor-capital balance—and says nobody knows what to do about it Speaking at the BlackRock Infrastructure Summit, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman tackled the growing public skepticism surrounding artificial intelligence, acknowledging the warning from President Donald Trump that AI is facing a major public relations problem. Moreover, the tech executive validated widespread anxieties about the future of employment, admitting that the traditional balance between labor and capital is shifting drastically. Addressing the current backlash, Altman noted that AI has become a widespread scapegoat for corporate downsizing and rising utility costs. “Data centers are getting blamed for electricity prices hikes. Almost every company that does layoffs is blaming AI, whether or not it really is about AI,” Altman explained, recalling his recent warning that some companies were engaging in what’s called “AI washing,” in blaming layoffs on new tech regardless if that was the reason for those layoffs in the first place. However, while some of the immediate blame might be misplaced, Altman confirmed that the underlying threat to traditional employment is grounded in reality. New research conducted by the University of Bristol and developer Meaning Machine shows that gamers enjoy playing with AI-powered non-playable characters. The study comprised 68 people – 31 male, 31 female, seven non-binary – playing the studio's murder mystery game Dead Meat, in which users are tasked with interrogating suepects. The investigation showed that 95% of study participants found the experience enjoyable, while 97% found playing the game to be rewarding. 75% found that Dead Meat allowed them to "express themselves or make meaningful choices". University of Bristol researchers say that all the above sentiments remained true across the different types of games that were in the study. One sentiment expressed by participants was how the AI-powered NPCs in Dead Meat allowed for freedom of expression.----- Why? Just - WHY?!?

They'd probably die too, but not before trying to screw everyone else." She replied "that's a bad way to look at it." I replied "have you ever lived in this country? It's the only way to look at it."

My girlfriend de jour got her rich Dad to give us passes to the loge seating at the venue. As such, we had reserved parking and an exclusive entryway. At the door I instinctively hid my bottles of booze underneath my coat. Our usher spied my liquor and said "Let me carry your luggage sir." And he did and took us up to our sky box. The other normies were getting their weed and booze confiscated and pitched into a dumpster. Same as it ever was . . . . Posted by: Tonypete at March 12, 2026 10:15 PM (cYBz/) 43

Actually on topic of AI NPCs, there are two (or three) gaymes that come to mind.
Fenris Wolf / Vox Day, "Rebel Moon" and "Rebel Moon Rising"; apparently the bad guys were good at reacting to player strategy, and could recalibrate. Ahead of their time for the late 1990s where enemies were generally stupid and/or scripted. "The Hobbit". The other characters would... wander around the (text-adventure) set. Unlike the thief in Zork, the NPCs could get stuck in parts of the map you couldn't get to, which made it impossible for you to progress. I guess it's... like real life?

Why? Just - WHY?!? I have golfed a few holes that did just that. It is maddening. There is a course in West PA called Avalon Field Golf Club. Used to called New Castle Country Club. It's old. Built in 1921 by A.W. Tillinghast, who if you are familiar with golf architects, he's pretty famous. Anyway, several green's on that course do evil, maddening things. Beautiful course, very hard. Just keeping the ball on the fairway is a challenge. The terrain is very Western PA. Lots of ravines and trees. Blind shots all over the place. It's madness! Plan to golf there again this summer!

Owl concert going on outside! Barred owls around here, usually they have nice regular hoots when they’re active. But when two of them get into the same tree, or trees right next to each other they start what can be described as shrieking, squawking , and almost barking. It’s a terrible racket!

"Rogers previously represented the National Rifle Association (NRA) in its 2024 case before the Supreme Court challenging the New York Department of Financial Services for attempting to sway financial institutions away from doing business with the NRA. The court unanimously sided with the NRA, saying the conduct violated the First Amendment.
She joined the Trump administration in October 2025. Rogers openly criticized European countries shaping laws to fight misinformation and disinformation online. She accused Germany of importing “barbarian rapist hordes” and suppressing political dissent in one post on the social platform X." Posted by: runner at March 12, 2026 10:19 PM (GD0B3) 59

100% correct about March 13, 2020 being the last normal day. That day we were sent home from work and told to bring home 'something' you could do remotely, because we were going to 'experiment' with working remotely.
I did not come back to my office until August that year, for one week, and was basically considered a hero for doing so. We didn't come back en masse until years later, and we are now permanently "hybrid" and "hoteling". I never realized it was Friday the 13th until I went back that August!

Certainly I recall my employer announcing in early March 2020 that we were going to remote work. We'd all be paid, but none of us would be allowed back on campus until further notice. It meant I had to get Internet at home (*gasp!* you say -- how did Wolfus ever survive without it???), and a smart phone so my boss could reach me (*double gasp!!!*).
So mid-March 2020 was when I joined the twenty-first century. Kicking, screaming, and grumbling, but I joined. Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at March 12, 2026 10:27 PM (wzUl9) 88

Graham Coxon was born today in 1969, and it took him a few years, but eventually he became a guitarist, singer, and songwriter. He's mostly known for his work with the band Blur, where he mostly did lead guitar and backup vocals. But, he has sole lyricist credit on one of their biggest hits, also did lead vocals for it, and it's a fantastic music video to boot:

Hillaire Belloc, The Great Heresies. It's mostly free from Kindle.
Interestingly, Belloc viewed Islam as a Christian heresy, simplifying Catholicism by denying the incarnation and Sacraments. Hillaire also accuses the Reformation as a heresy in a general sense because it broke the unified authority of the Papacy charging that Calvinism leads to the rise of nationalism and competitive capitalism. Which is interesting because Calvinism is what allowed 9 billion people to inhabit this earth due to competitive capitalism that made all the things due to a strong work ethic and a desire to create and achieve. Up until then, the world population was pretty flat-lined due to famine, poverty, hunger, war, etc. Islam, OTOH, is the exact opposite of Calvinism and intends to destroy everything. The affluence and freedom of this world was brought about by the Printing Press, Gunpowder and Calvinism, and will be destroyed by Censorship, the Sword and Islam.

Also in the '70s, I had a Pioneer SuperTuner FM/cassette unit added under he dash of my '75 Ford Maverick. It had come with an AM radio only.
The SuperTuner was indeed sensitive. On night drives in Lafayette, LA, and nearby, it would try to pull in signals from quite a ways, and they interfered with each other.

Speaking at the BlackRock Infrastructure Summit, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman tackled the growing public skepticism surrounding artificial intelligence
AI, or in this case the sort of LLMs we call AI, has the potential for significant issues... The immediate one is it places a lot of white collar work in jeopardy. The latest stuff, like Claude can write everything from fancy reports to actual software pretty well. The larger problem is it opens the door even further for EngSoc style history changes. This is sort of the wikipedia problem writ large where if a false statement is created in the source of truth most people use you can make most people believe a lie.

It was having another wonderful mother It was always a pleasure to see her and to bring communion and to hear about her life. i will miss her. I think I've asked for prayer before, but I would be grateful for them tomorrow that God would be with her family and that all goes smoothly. Thx

Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at March 12, 2026 10:36 PM Mine was a Dual 510 turntable which was a popular brand back in the day. It had a hinged clear plastic dust cover over the top. The cartridge was an Audio-Technica, the receiver was Onkyo and the floor speakers were JBL. Got a lot of musical enjoyment from that set-up. Posted by: Joemarine at March 12, 2026 11:00 PM (y171U) I've been a Pioneer man since buying my first official "hi-fi" piece of equipment in the fall of 1982, the SX-4 receiver. Admittedly, it was the bottom end of their newest line, but it was all I could afford on my Burger King minimum wage at the time. I soon acquired the CT-6R cassette deck, and the PL-4 turntable, all of which were well used until a storm took out the receiver and turntable in '86. Replaced with the SX-2300 and the PL-L-30 linear tracking turntable...which is still on my stereo cabinet to this day. I've since upgraded to the Elite line for the receiver, though (currently the VSX-LX103) Posted by: goozer at March 12, 2026 11:26 PM (BAs8w) Posted by: goozer at March 12, 2026 11:26 PM (BAs8w) Posted by: San Franpsycho at March 12, 2026 11:27 PM (RIvkX) 200

Posted by: Harry Vandenburg at March 12, 2026 11:11 PM (cntUY) AC/DC always hovered *just* below the metal line, but they did have their moments when they went over the line. The back in black album was great, and it happened right at the perfect moment of the British metal invasion when actual metal bands were releasing iconic albums of that time. Judas priest's British Steel, Black Sabbath heaven and hell, Iron maiden's Iron Maiden, and a bunch of others. Before the back in black album they had a few heavies like the song Sin City. There were songs that were just heavy enough, kinda dancing on the line. AC/DC was always a heavy rock band, maybe not metal, but damn close enough.

Even if you get home exercises, they will help. You might also consider a chiropractor because your neck and back are also going to be out of alignment. Also, hotpad.

In high school the Deadheads and the AC/DC fans would clash with the Dead fans dismissing AC/DC as three-cord hacks.
Posted by: 13times at March 12, 2026 11:35 PM (3tyoN) And the dead were 3 song hacks. At the same time AC/DC songs were actually only a few chords. Very first band I was in out of high school played a shit ton of AC/DC, and I never had to sit down with the albums to learn any of the songs. I just listened to them in the car while driving. They did follow a certain pattern. Very easy stuff, but it sounded good the way they did it.

Belloc, Chesterton, and their cohorts also advocated something called "distributism" as an alternative to both laissez-faire capitalism and socialism.
Near as I can figure out, their ideal scenario was for widely-distributed private property (to put it in modern terms, no "too big to fail" entities, or to put it in Biblical terms, "But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of the LORD of hosts hath spoken it."). Now, I can immediately see some problems with that... mom and pop telephone companies aren't gonna give you a global internet, and there are of course other economies of scale. But it's interesting, and I hope to learn more about it. There is certainly something to the view that when a "private sector" organization gains too much power, it starts looking a lot like a government.

Our pups in the center of the country have to shelter more often but for the most part they are currently staying in an apartment with a safe room where our grandkids sleep in. So they don't need food in there. Now, up north is having constant incoming. If we would be there in our vacation home, I'd stock the safe room with some food and drink.

- I think there's a law on the books defining 'the militia,' something like able bodied men ages 18 to I'm not sure what. The trick would be arming just American men, rather than muslims or Democrats. Posted by: Methos at March 13, 2026 01:30 AM (vSvIl) 303

Iran was Obama's foreign policy legacy and now it's up in flames. He's got to be burning with rage - impotent as it is. His Egypt sham failed. Syria was an embarrassment. His Libya adventure crashed and burned.
And it was Trump that just bombed his Legacy to ashes. Especially gratifying! Posted by: 13times at March 13, 2026 01:35 AM (3tyoN) 307
