🛂 US suspends Microsoft, major IT firms from key green card program
｢ "Our message to Microsoft is: You're a great American company, but you've got to hire great American workers," US Vice President JD Vance said ｣
@tinker because you know me and my unhinged behavior 😂
@aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place @cwebber@social.coop Well they're real insofar as that there seem to be repos that compile in at least one C(++) compiler. But yes, some of the examples are... well just today I saw one of those sloptubers delete their latest Tweet after this was the state of the repo:
@jeremy_pm
> But to ask the obvious question, why aren't you supporting changing this government?
I'll answer that after you tell me when you stopped beating your wife ; )
@strypey @cblatro @joshjacobsen
Don’t be a dick, do you really want to go down that road?
Because I could mention your history of inappropriate behaviour with minors if you think representing the Opportunity Party is about making shit up.

@alexchapman the people that say that probably use it for that
@Dulcetmoon Oh Idk, I've heard a lot of people say that and they don't even have them so that's not really the case. Either way its stupid.
Defensie mag met deze wet gegevens verzamelen over politieke opvattingen, genetische data, gezondheid en seksuele geaardheid, ras en etnische afkomst
Die gegevens mogen vervolgens ook met andere landen gedeeld worden. De wettelijke criteria om dit allemaal te mogen doen zijn onduidelijk geformuleerd en voor meerdere uitleg vatbaar. Reden genoeg voor maatschappelijke ongerustheid, zou je denken.
I've warned before that any FOSS project incorporating AI output is doing so at their peril.
Previously people leaned on a federal circuit ruling that was *declined to be taken up by the supreme court* interpreting it as a free-for-all to LLM license-wash any project in translation, or really to incorporate any such materials and they would be public domain.
But that doesn't mean we have an answer! We've yet to see!
Annnnnnnnnd: I think we're likely to have that perspective upended soon.
The third circuit issued a recent ruling in the *opposite direction* of the previously well cited federal ruling, that AI training on copyrighted material is NOT fair use: https://www.courthousenews.com/ai-training-of-copyrighted-material-not-fair-use-third-circuit/
Annnnndddddd.... with a bunch of people trying to make LLM-generated decompilation replacements for Adobe's entire suite, we're likely to suddenly see corporations rear up angrily.
Just wait till someone tries to vibewash a Nintendo game decompilation. Hey, what do you think is gonna happen?

@vitaut unexceptable.
@cwebber@social.coop @dryak@mstdn.science I mean yeah, I'm aware they went after Switch emulators. But unless I missed something, I don't think they've gone after anything else yet?
But yes, perhaps they're just waiting for the right time to really dunk on the scene and make an actual legal precedent. Who knows.
EDIT: wait no I just remembered. They definitely have gone after homebrew dumping tools etc for the Switch too. Sigh.

@seedy60 Oh wow lol.
Come on brey, read the story right?
According to the FBI the guy wanted to go join foreign terrorist groups. And that didn't work out. Then they keep him on the line for like fuckin TWO WHOLE YEARS, apparently with zero crimes committed, before pretending to be ISIS handlers and selling him an AK 47 with 200 bullets. He then robs a hat store.
Who made that crime happen? Does this fucking guy sound like Carlos the Jackal to you?
Don't be wet. This is bullshit.
@AnarchoNinaWrites the entire "intelligence community" has always, always ALWAYS spent almost all of its time tricking people out. i have never seen a single thing they've done the wasn't subverting others to their own needs.
globally, interpersonally, whatever. it's a bullshit arm of the pig empire and pretending it does any amount of actual work is a fucking wish at best.
I have news! iOS 27 update for @IceCubesApp is submitted! Sorry for the delay!
Finally! Happy to see you back on this. Thanks for keeping the lights on. (https://ilye.ss/replies/202610082109/)

Those people, often students, approach people at parties, events, and start talking about "AI safety". The best defense is letting them know that you are well aware of "effective altruists", and what a cult they are.
Read here what a dangerous cult they are, from a former member: https://www.realtimetechpocalypse.com/p/effective-altruism-is-a-dangerous
Here are the faces and names of "effective altruists" high up the hierarchy in Germany: https://effektiveraltruismus.de/en/team-en/
One of them tried to sell me their story 10 days ago. He is completely fried: https://ea.greaterwrong.com/users/birk-kaellberg?sort=old (this is not SF to them, they truly believe those things)
He organizes "AI safety" talks in his garden in Heidelberg and the listeners get a free dinner. He says their money comes from "philanthropists". I was rude, made fun of their prophet Yudkowsky, and he ended up giggling nervously and self-soothing by caressing his fingers. Then he switched to chatting up students.
Honestly, I haven't been so creeped out by a cult since Opus Dei! They have money and can pull in uninformed people. Spread the word! Make it embarrassing to engage with EA!
A lot of arrests have happened at Elbit; we need police station support at Euston Street and Beaumont Leys. DM for coordination Signal and WhatsApp links
Update: 34+ arrests made at Elbit, some releases from Euston Street station but more to go, other stations all still being detained. Some support at stations already but more welcome
@seedy60 Lol which ones?
