Ho una lista di cose da fare che si ritrae e si espande come una fisarmonica: tiro un sospiro di sollievo e poi mannaggio, tiro un sospiro di sollievo e poi mannaggio, e così via, ad infinitum

Oui : le racisme est décomplexé. Oui : le RN fait des gros scores. Oui : tout le paysage politique s'est droitisé. Non : la progression du RN n'est pas inéluctable. Non : Bardella sera pas forcément au 2e tour. Oui : Mélenchon sera élu en 2027. Le meilleur ami de l'extrême droite est la résignation à porter un projet de rupture avec la république bourgeoise

We're still attempting to recoup the $50,000+ we spent on our legal team vs Energy Transfer who wanted source materials.

We fought for press freedoms and won at the MN Supreme Court, thank you so much for helping us dig out of the hole.

I'm glad we got all of that crazy security stuff out of the way yesterday so we can have a nice chilled Tuesday with no significant supply chain incidents...

@albert yeah I don’t really want to build my own it would be a lot more expensive than getting a 2nd hand one. I guess nobody really does the open hw thing as a whole unit.

new preprint on the spread of hallucinated citations in the scientific literature:

- origin primarily from small and early-career author teams

- hallucinated references disproportionately assign credit to already prominent and male scholars

- 𝟴𝟱.𝟯% of hallucinations in preprints persist into the published version

- hallucinations appear across the range of journals, including high impact ones

- fake citations are becoming listed in search engines like Google scholar

Why are we building housing for computers and not for people?

Come cavolo fate a sopravvivere ai vostri sogni? Solitamente mi sveglio sereno, dimentico di tutto quello che è successo durante la notte e pronto a essere preso a schiaffi dalla giornata in divenire. Ma oggi, perdio, l'inconscio mi ha regalato una traccia lunghissima e dettagliata di tutta la mia attività onirica notturna, lasciandomi stanco, nonostante il lungo sonno, e impanicato per quello che ho trovato dentro di me. Il mio cervello, il posto più inospitale della terra.

Redditors have caught Google secretly updating its Chrome terms of service to remove a line that guaranteed that local AI models won't send data to Google servers.

That's now gone, meaning your local AI sends data to Google, so it's not that local.

+ Mastodon ist (nur) ein Teil des Fediverse
+ Friendica nutzen viele, wie auch meine @reparierecke
+ Alt-Texte sind wichtige Hilfen für blinde Menschen und auch, wenn Bilder nicht angezeigt werden können.
+ das Fediverse hat eine treffsicherere Reichweite als alle anderen sozialen Netzwerke, da hier kein Algorithmus Reichweite vorgaukelt. Wobei es aber nicht hauptsächlich die Reichweite ist, die hier wichtig ist.
