It’s brutal how successful the Iranian regime was with its Internet and social media outage – outside of #Iran. They mass-murdered between 5000 and 20.000 young protesters within a couple of days but the global public has reacted very moderately in terms of interest and consequences.

@christianschwaegerl because it's all manufactured. this doesn't fully excuse the numbers but there's also foreign agents within the protests and over 100 officers have been killed. there's armed groups coordinating attacks, people burning officers to death alive, etcetera.

the protest was over currency dropping but the west and israel hijacked it for regime change. they're looking for any excuse to place a leader aligned with their interests. imo the blackout and jamming was necessary

@quixoticgeek You're right. As soon as I posted, I found three almost identical designs. Now the question is, where should I hang them?

@kbob that depends a lot on your kitchen design, and how often you use your mixer. Can't really advise. If you find a design that works, can you link it here so others might find it please?

Closely cropped photo of a black banner sign hanging from an orange tree branch with Abolish ICE in large print. Abolish in white. Ice in red. My phone camera reflects in car window, the lenses giving an owl like silhouette.

As ICE terrorizes communities, crypto executives who spent years posting about freedom have gone conspicuously silent. But behind the scenes, they’ve contributed at least $315 million — more than double their record 2024 spending — to elect more lawmakers to enable this administration.

Canada 🇨🇦 needs to take this threat seriously—even if only a third (at most) in Alberta desire to separate

👉🏾 #Canada 🇨🇦 separatists accused of ‘treason’ after secret talks with US state department https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jan/29/david-eby-alberta-separatism-treason 🔛 @guardian

I would not put it past #Trump to recognize “illegal” separatist elections in #Alberta as legitimate, then send in black ops & mercenaries (comprised as former soldiers) to occupy the province.

This blogpost makes an astoundingly good case about LLMs I hadn't considered before. The collapse of public forums (like Stack Overflow) for programming answers coincides directly with the rise of programmers asking for answers from chatbots *directly*. Those debugging sessions become part of a training set that now *only private LLM corporations have access to*. This is something that "open models" seemingly can't easily fight. https://michiel.buddingh.eu/enclosure-feedback-loop

Perhaps of interest to our Forkiverse vibe coding community: I wrote about falling in and out love with Clawdbot/Moltbot https://www.platformer.news/moltbot-clawdbot-review-ai-agent/

It was around this time that I realized an AI employee who works for you 24/7 isn’t much use if they have no idea what they are, or what they can do, or what you are talking about. The daily briefing of my dreams had come to feel like an albatross. Asking it to do anything more complicated felt, at least in this moment, like a waste of time and tokens.

I had become the character I described here earlier this month: the manager who believed he was using AI to make himself more productive, while in reality I was only creating problems for my future self to solve.
