If the independent, non-slop web has any future at all, then now must be the time for every firefox fork to commit to working together to maintain a hardfork isolated from Mozilla.
It's a project that is too large to be handled by any small project alone (and maybe even all of them combined), but one that is too important to left under the guidance of an organization like Mozilla.
Without such bold co-operation I fear we have already lost.
Wee bit of a heatwave for SoCal (although, could be said in so many other places... this is no surprise).
@fred oh thank you! i'll let you know :-)
@fred no, copying the bits over did not work! flatpak appears to have very particular ideas on the correct metadata or something, i dunno
if you have the flatpak bundle that would be awesome - what do i do to install it?
OpenAI claims that their own experimental model broke containment and caused the Hugging Face incident.
If this is true, the following is also true: they were working with weapons-grade offensive models, or so they hoped, and yet had insufficient telemetry from the lab, and couldn't be bothered with an airgap.
Hard to take that seriously.

@mttaggart I just finished reading their blog post and they really don't seem to be taking this seriously. Their key take-away appears to be that the "model alignment" was insufficient, when it's been proven fairly rigorously that trained-in model alignment isn't a strong deterministic control.
I love to stay up late and have fun even though it’s not fun and I don’t love it

Thank you all for your health suggestions (die), relationships advice (go fuck yourself), and open minded attitude to a balanced diet (eat a bag of dicks)
Mastodon wish feature: Being able to mute notifications from replies to replies, without muting notifications from replies to the original post. That'd be fantastic! 🫣🔕

when you're stuck in a traffic jam to the airport it's hopefully because someone is on their way to propose to you
An improvement on the previous one, but only insofar as norovirus is preferable to ebola.
He did promise to scrap the digital ID system Starmer said was "essential". Guess it wasn't so much.
He's still another politician beholden to the Israeli lobby, the one that's been entrenched in Labour for years, the same one that lied about Corbyn being anti-semitic as soon as he espoused Palestinian sympathies.
Until he/someone breaks that control...
Jesus saves?
No, my child. Jesus *invests*.

OpenAI is now a verified threat actor.
>La dirgente del gremio fue más allá al graficar el impacto emocional que tendría la implementación de la ley. Relató que, en su experiencia como ecografista, comunicar una mala noticia como la inviabilidad fetal genera una «angustia terrible» en la paciente. Someter a esa misma mujer a escuchar nuevamente los latidos de un feto que no sobrevivirá es, en sus palabras, un acto de «tortura».
