Debian to ban LLM, https://www.debian.org/vote/2026/vote_002.
Undeniable arguments, with sources!
> It is our belief that widespread LLM usage comes from the "move fast, and break things" attitude that, while common in many parts of this industry, is contrary to what makes Debian Debian, and is inappropriate for Debian contributors. (1/3)
„Wer die #DDR überstand, darf stolz darauf sein, sagt Jahn, aber die Leute geben diesen Stolz weg.“
„Man will Anerkennung und wird würdelos.“
Hier länger:
„Seit 2011 leitet Jahn die Stasi-Unterlagen-Behörde. Seit einiger Zeit empfängt er Gegenwind für seine Bereitschaft, die Akten, mithin den Gral der Revolution, opferfern ins Bundesarchiv zu überführen. Jahn findet, jenseits des Themas Stasi sei die Aufarbeitung der SED-Diktatur unpopulär. Eigene Verstrickung werde weggeschoben. Ihn nerve auch das Ost-Geschrei: Wir sind abgehängt! Integriert erst mal uns! Wer die DDR überstand, darf stolz darauf sein, sagt Jahn, aber die Leute geben diesen Stolz weg. Wir können doch jeden Tag anpacken, gestalten, die richtigen Parteien wählen oder gründen. Aber man steigert sich in die funktionierende Provokation hinein und gibt das Selbstwertgefühl auf. Man will Anerkennung und wird würdelos.“

when your event offers free parking but offers no subsidy to people taking more reasonable forms of transportation: that's ableist and climate denialism. hope this helps

On August 28, 2026, someone managed to gain access to the noblogs.org platform as a privileged user, exploiting a vulnerability in the software we use to provide the platform.
I hesitate to say this bluntly, because I know a whole lot of folks on here are actively involved in technical development of one sort or another, and derive both pleasure and a significant part of their identity from that fact. There’s something I think we all need to get clear on, though, and it’s something I myself had to learn the hard way: no tool will liberate us. The achievement of justice cannot be automated, or otherwise outsourced to a technical apparatus of any sort.
You work on tools because that’s what you’re good at, because that’s the way your brain works, because that’s what you enjoy or can get compensated for doing. That’s all as may be. But please, please do not make the mistake of thinking that the tool – any tool, of any sort whatever – will produce “progress.” There is and can be no technical fix for the social-psychological, existential or ontological predicaments that confront us. In the end there is only us, staring back at us from whatever mirror we’ve built.
@adamgreenfield The continuation of the wealthy, manipulating the masses into subjugated subservience, via extraneous metrics developed to benefit them more, instead of you/us/99%, is the system that needs to be uprooted.
This can be done by pursuing individual proficiency ranges, earlier in developmental stages, not only through making Behavioral Science core education, but applying a more integrated hardware equation in the behavioral range process.
We have the tech to better target character trait data, through professions like #bioinformatics, that can be effectively integrated into educational curriculum. This averts distal abuses, like #TechBros and #FossilFuels #Oligarchy keeping too many from their inherent value ranges, and substantiates a more persistent, malleable, reliable infrastructure in human systems, and therefore better affecting overlapping ecosystems that ultimately cycle/feedback to us.

"Please, point to the time in history when we have invested a trillion fucking dollars in making human workers better. [...]
Where is mentorship in corporate America? Where are labor standards? Where are the social services that would make human workers truly excel at their jobs — a good night’s sleep, a healthy body, a good income, basic fucking dignity in the workplace, and their labor respected and empowered. [...]
UTMB is the antithesis to AI.
Ben Dhiman blast through a route, that is usually hiked in 10 days, in 18 hours and 15 minutes. Then he does an interview in English and French, both fluently.
No fucking AI involved. Only true competence. No faking it. Just a guy who knows how to use his body and his equipment, crewed by people who know what they are doing.
The antithesis of AI.

@libreoffice Thank you for remaining human!

@mariusor lovely selection.
So long, and thanks for all the fish!

GLM-5.3-Flash: Frontier Intelligence, Flash Cost (e chip cinesi) https://blog.quintarelli.it/2026/08/glm-5-3-flash-frontier-intelligence-flash-cost-e-chip-cinesi/
@quinta beh, la notizia ha tre giorni, secondo me se ci fosse stata una vera conferma, sarebbe già arrivata.
Saahan sitä ihmisillä harrastuksia olla 😂. Sain vihdoinkin ekan eli toi Narri. Paljon puuttuu vielä.
@mariperttola @trendaa Nuo on ahdistavia. Tulee lapsuusmuistot mieleen. Kauheeta pelottelua, toksisuutta, väkivaltaa ja syyllistämistä.
Something I enjoy about #SouthamptonPride is the number of people lining the sides of the road wearing rainbow clothes, waving pro-LGBTQ+ signs. Not just shoppers who happened to be there, but people who have actively chosen to go down and show support.
