TIL that the UK PSTN is being fully turned off in January! I assume BT are going to make a killing selling off all the copper. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/uk-transition-from-analogue-to-digital-landlines
@Floppy I wonder if this means I could get the lines that cross over my back garden removed along with next door’s telegraph pole?
I mean Stavvy doesn't bother me - I'm an old school Cum Town viewer. Crucially however the thing about Stavros is that he realizes that his job is to make you laugh, not tell you how the country should be run. I mean yeah his politics are much more like ours than all these Nazi comedians but that's really besides the point - the point is he knows he's entertaining people, and he doesn't think he's the smartest guy in the room - even when sometimes he IS the smartest guy in the room.
Non sarà facile, forse non sarà possibile per tutti, forse la repressione colpirà ancora, ma rinunciare in partenza vorrebbe dire portare poco rispetto per chi ha sopportato questa responsabilità per 25 anni.

@mattmay@mstdn.social big companies spend $300-500M yearly on marketing, OpenAI is not different, they throw $22M, plagiarized mathematicians, and brute-forced the solution to install in people mind that chatGPT has surpassed the smartest human in Math, one of the foundational disciplines to understand the universe. It was a really good marketing move, work of the devil, as most marketing is...
I just learned from a meeting with radio astronomers that AST SpaceMobile is already disrupting GPS signals with only a handful of direct-to-device satellites in orbit. This seems... bad. And like someone in some government somewhere should maybe care about this?
Well in the US they won’t…
Watching this Apple event tout how iPhones will soon be able to record ambient audio/conversations and transcribe "high level notes" for you. It's billed as private and end-to-end encrypted, but I think the bigger harm is the normalization of always-listening devices. It's creepy and not normal.
Big brother is here…
@antanicus guarda che è un attimo per l'alluvione con stato di emergenza, 6 morti e 7 milioni di danni.
Ahir escrivia al voltant d'una contradicció, avui ho faré al voltant d'una altre.
FET: Un immensíssim nombre d'espanyols/es té catalanofòbia, en és conscient i s'hi reafirmen.
FET: Aquests mateixos espanyols/es no volen que ens separem d'Espanya.
FET: Quan una part, o les dues, d'una parella no està contenta amb l'altre cal el divorci quan abans millor.
Perquè no demanen el divorci...? nosaltres fa molt temps que ho fem.
NOTA: Ja sé les respostes, això és un tut retòric

@davidgerard basically simulating the boyfriend experience where he invites you over to watch Call of Duty.
My mum: "I've been in the attic and these are yours. Do you want them?"
Me: "Of course. Do not throw them away."

@xinit they keep deleting their unhinged posts when they prove unpopular, here you go
@PaulNickson Literally if you sat down to write an op-ed, designed to say "the left should feel bad for making fun of dead ass Charlie Kirk" but you wanted to make it LOOK LIKE you were criticizing TPUSA, while actually promoting them - this is the article you're write.
Which suggests to me the author did it intentionally.
oh god they're making a movie about the unabomber and they cast a young, conventionally attractive, slightly awkward looking guy as ted kaczynski
