For fans of #standingstonesunday, I have a conundrum. Pictured is a stone that is undeniably standing but I don't think it was erected by human hands, or was it? Your thoughts appreciated. It is located approximately 250m SSW of the campsite at #Achmelvich #Sutherland #Scotland . Note that this stone is not recorded as a standing stone as far as I can determine (eg trove.scot). All the same it's very very upright!

Did you know that to be available on Google, I had to:

- Remove donation links
- Hard-coded censorship
- Create a dedicated account so they can log into it

I am really upset by this difference in strictness, where I am stuck.
This cost a lot of energy because they made everything simple for the end user but not for the devs.
All these actions are not for protecting you, it's for controlling you.

I wonder, since the split, has anything at all been backported (or at the very least reimplemented independently) from Audacity to Tenacity?

@jaredwhite The technical report backs you up on the timeline: a team saw an agent on the message board and off-sandbox internet in late May, a monitoring alert on 27 June was judged not worth stopping the run, and the 4 July outage was the first thing that opened an incident. In OpenAI's own words, some early signals "should have triggered an earlier response". The swarm did what it was trained to do; the run kept going because people let it.

A friend built mine and it was in a wooden box.

@lispi314 this is what I use a chlorine tablet for, chuck it in there in maybe about 500mo water, give everything a good shake around, leave overnight

We’re delighted to share that our talk: “Sovereignty Is More Than a Server: Public Digital Commons with Bonfire” has been accepted for the Open Source Conference Luxembourg 🎉 !
We’re looking forward to discussing why digital sovereignty requires more than self-hosting and how public digital commons and projects like Bonfire Networks can help build more open, democratic, and resilient digital ecosystems.

If you’re attending, we’d love to meet you, exchange ideas, and learn about what you’re working on.<span class="invisible"> #digitalsovereignty #commons #bonfire

@ajroach42 I once found a uniform shirt in a thrift shop in Copenhagen. It had the FritoLay logo next to some logistics company logo, and someone's name embroidered on the other side.

Never quite worked out how it got there, and I wish I'd bought it.

@molly0xfff - every time I open open my writing program or my IDE I do. I’m bad, and I’m getting better, I’m enjoying the process.

#AutisticiInventati

Che se lo sommiamo all'attacco frontale e spropositato ad a/i fa pensare d'essere davvero entrati in una nuova fase, lasciandoci alle spalle altri momenti bui che hanno una durata incredibilmente breve come la loro frequenza, senza darti il tempo di assimilare un granchè. Semplicemente catapultato in una nuova distopia ogni mese

@junes forse anche domani diamo informazioni in merito (cercheremo di fare in modo che non si perda nulla).

"Ora mollate il pc, uscite, lottate, abbracciatevi e non perdete il sorriso. Perché noi ci fermiamo. Ma la resistenza e le idee no. Restiamo umani". Grazie di tutto, @cavallette

Der @festal hat einen überaus erhellenden Text über KI im Allgemeinen und Öffentlichkeit im Speziellen geschrieben, dessen nüchtern-analytische Tiefe und Originalität mich wirklich begeistert hat. Lest rein, ihr werdet es nicht bereuen:

@tinydoctor An Adler 25 was my *second* typewriter. (My first, an inherited Empire Aristocrat, died when the keys began snapping under my abuse.)
