@KrissyKat I'm so old, I remember when America was a 1st world country.
@rk Stop it. Your're spreading speculative misinformation that will discourage people from voting.
The actual facts and details matter a lot here.
Hence my comment that I don’t wanna be a pessimist doomer. I still hope.
but all mathematics aside i feel i can implement a secure and super flexible modular exponentiation primitive now
i need to figure out how to explain to everyone that hashing a directory tree is actually among the deepest questions of modern mathematics

@burgervege @Khrys oui, mais en vrai c'est un mec sympa. Et il aime DBZ comme le président. C'est ça qui compte.
Non mais sinon, en vrai, pesticides, pauvreté, canicules, destruction des hôpitaux,... Macron aussi il aime tuer les gens. C'est un autre style, mais y'a la même passion.
My concern is that this ruling will get translated as "Trump/SCOTUS has outlawed vote-by-mail", which is simply not true.
No one should alter their voting plans for 2026 based on today's ruling.

Utah has refused to turn over voter information. Will we have to find another way to distribute ballots?

Dear friends,
Please gather around for a long post about #WSocial and how they are responding to critiques.
I have noticed a trend: W Social leaders and staunch supporters are describing any critical posts about the company as "targeted disinformation." Its CEO said they will soon have a technical solution in place for this. Oh?!?
🔗: https://mu.social/profile/anna.wsocial.eu/post/3mtqufy6g4s2r
I suppose the "targeted disinformation" claims are about recent posts by the likes of me and @pallenberg about troubling hate speech that is allowed on W Social.
Claims backed by hard evidence, in the form of screenshots and video captures. (I am increasingly doing screen recordings of problematic posts and interactions by W Social people because they have a tendency to delete evidence - like an infamous comment on a video by the Instutute for Remigration).
⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️
Discrediting sources, renaming evidence as "disinformation" and creating a victim narrative has a long, storied history.
⬆️ ⬆️ ⬆️
But I'm digressing. I speak up about W Social because:
Mainstream media runs PR fluff about them;
Horrid hate speech on the platform is completely unmoderated.
W Social is currently showing the limits of free speech absolutism. Its CEO wrote: "We don’t need W to become another echo chamber."
Reminds you of something?
Atmosphere user @echna.bsky.social astutely remarked that "W Social is on an X speedrun, without ever having been like Twitter."

Bluesky, #Blacksky, and #Northsky have mechanisms in place to report hate speech - and I am super thankful for that.
As of today, I cannot report to W Social posts by their users that contain hate speech.
The W Social moderation list's only purpose is to make a distinction between verified users and bots.
Compare it with Blacksky's moderation list and be amazed (see screenshots).
What's the big deal about the lack of content moderation on #WSocial?
Well, I am haunted by some posts by their users.
A repeat offender (routinely posting racist and xenophobic posts) recently commented "Awesome news" to a newspaper article about a Palestinian family drowning in Sussex.
His profile is still up and he's followed by W Social's CEO and its co-founder Ingmar Renzhog (yes I have evidence of this, via a video capture - so even if they unfollow him or delete his account, well, I have proof of my claim).
I agree with "Echna" that W Social is on an X speedrun, allowing racist, transphobic and xenophobic posts. Evidence:

Instead of addressing these critiques head-on - and moderating hate speech - the W Social co-founders are lamenting being subjected to a "targeted disinformation" campaign.
Oh ok?
IMHO free speech absolutism ultimately only coddles far right extremists and is a very dangerous thing.
Would you call this disinformation?
Special thanks to my #GoToSocial account for allowing this message all in one go, without having to break it up in a hundred-post thread.
TL;DR: W Social is taking a dark turn real fast.

@arrrg classical economics sucks
Bremen ohne Plan und Ahnung oder auch nur Verwendungszweck. Immerhin könnte die erste umfassende Evaluation vom #Verhaltensscanner kommen https://netzpolitik.org/2026/ueberwachung-im-oepnv-mit-dieser-realsatire-fuehrte-bremen-verhaltensscanner-ein/
@CCC und bemerkenswert ist der Schlusssatz: die Polizei konnte keinen Fall nennen, der auf KI bei der Aufklärung zurückzuführen ist.

Hier dreht sich aktuell alles um die anstehende OP + Vorbereitung. Uns war nicht klar, wie viele Arztpraxen vorher noch abgeklappert werden müssen.
Deshalb gab es hier heute viel Orga, Physio und einen Spaziergang. Und ich habe den Nachtisch für euch fotografiert.
Schokomousse aus Seidentofu und Dattelschokolade + pürierte Himbeeren. 🥰
so we have our hypergraph from hell almost ready to go, but we should make two more operations:
- add 1, then take to a power of 2
- take to a power of 2, then add 1
but i think that sucks actually though. the point is we need to help get all the 1 divisors who've been trapped in their own ideal for centuries to help us with our little CSPRNG system

The cockroach, out of hatred for the ant, voted for the insecticide.
They all died.
Including the cricket, who cast an invalid vote, and the fly, who did not go to the polls at all.
America’s political landscape in a nutshell.
