The pair hatched a plan to go to Nigeria to see if they could actually track down a scammer. The trip provided rare insight into how some scammers live and how brazenly many of them flaunt their scams.

@404mediaco This indicates how easy it would be for the large social media companies hosting these scams to disrupt them, if they wanted to.

Something I didn't think about when I decided to give this hobby a go is that I've started seeing every fabric object in arms reach in terms of its construction.
TBH, I'm not mad about it
After 1655 days of Russia committing war crimes in Ukraine, bombing civilians, raping, torturing, and killing, Jared Kushner thinks he will now create peace in Ukraine, because he talked to Putin, and Putin was really digging this whole peace idea.
I am glad not all Americans are this utterly naive.

Naive? I don’t think he is naive. He is complicit. He is trying to give Putin credibility but he has no credibility of his own to sell the lies.
We see through his pale facade. There’s nothing of any value or substance.

Shared infrastructure is how the #Fediverse can grow without recreating enshittified platform silos.
We’re excited to share that Bonfire is working with Mastodon on two critical areas of Fediverse infrastructure: remote media storage and automated content detection.
Built around open Fediverse Auxiliary Service Provider (FASP) specifications, this work will help platforms connect to shared services instead of each having to build and operate the same capabilities alone.
Our aim is to make these capabilities open, interoperable, and available for any federated server to adopt.
A big thank you to @Mastodon@mastodon.social team for involving us in this work. We’re looking forward to building together and sharing what we learn along the way.

Is using a local LLM any worse than playing a video game? No clickbait here, the answer is "yes, much worse", but perhaps you will be interested in an explanation of why: https://blog.glyph.im/2026/09/but-what-about-video-games.html
@siracusa lots of very good CGI, sure, but also lots of practical effects and very good blending of the two.
@bigzaphod Watch the video, if you haven’t! No real planes in the climactic battle, for example.

Neighbor search in high-dimensional space is fucking rocket-science, and there is no current definitive answer to it.
But I can assure you, whatever a viable algorithm might be, it is not a) searching the dataset sequentially, or b) graphically rendering each face it is processing w/its matchpoints.
@GeePawHill pretty sure rockets only operate in, like, three or four dimensions and that seems hard enough already
