This is the toughest time to work at a charity. When a charity posts its fundraiser, the total ask has been vetted 100 times: it's the amount that the org needs to keep going for the coming year.
Unlike your local PBS/NPR station, #SFC doesn't have a service we can interrupt to
pitch appeals for donations (& we probably wouldn't even if we did).
#SFC is short $48k with just days to go.
If you want me & my colleagues to work for #SoftwareFreedom in 2026, please give.
Software freedom is critical to many of today’s most pressing social issues, but it’s only effective when FOSS is for everyone. Support Conservancy today to help make that happen!Software Freedom Conservancy

One of several drummers on the station, HKC Radio would like to wish a very Happy Birthday to Sonic Synergy's own Christina Campbell! Sadly, we can't have Warren Haynes jumping out of a cake for you, we do hope that your birthday has all the rhythm you could want and does not contain tumor milk.
Catch her and Kevin Sunday at 6 PM EST!
Hey lovelies 🩷
We think we've possibly got a few followers and mutuals who are blind and use some kinds of iOS mobile devices, right?
Enquiring because of a random encounter with another plural trans+ being on Reddit, who advised that they're legally blind and had not found any suitably accessible way to access the fediverse.
Can anybody advise whether there are any such ways, so we can give them some way or ways to join the friendlier fediverse community?
If not, they're stuck largely with Reddit and Bluesky 😅😔
The topic only came up after we advised that we'd found fedi to be much more plural friendly and accepting that most other such places... especially Reddit.
For clarity, we have zero experience of iOS and are not blind (at least presently at least), so we'd appreciate any firsthand experiences very much 🫶🏻

Oh no. Can you please think of the poor corporation and its CEO? The negativity you talk about regarding AI is hurting them badly. Now Jensen Huang is begging you to stop being so negative about AI: "[It's] extremely hurtful, frankly, and I think we've done a lot of damage," he said. This is the same thing the Microsoft CEO said a couple of weeks back. It would be a shame if you boosted and spread this negative news. Lmao.

Well done @MapComplete for resolving a bug in less than a day! ⚡ thanks from Italians 🍕
P.S. Forgejo is so nice! Lovely integration with OpenStreetMap OAuth. Really simpler than GitHub and GitLab! 👏

I noticed that, when an Italian street is called "Viale XYZ" (example: "Viale Marebello"), then the prefix "**Viale**" is not omitted correctly. The "le" part remains by mistake.Forgejo

My 3yo demanded apples with ketchup this morning. Horrible but, fine, if that’s what you want, you got it. Then he asked if I wanted to taste it. I obviously did not. This mofo turned these tables on my so quick with a “you don’t have to eat the whole thing but at least try it”
Let me tell you. That combo is so much worse than I could have imagined. 🤢🤢🤢
a girl in my class (2nd grade?) used to put ketchup in her applesauce. So there has to be something to this...
She moved away after that school year. Amanda, are you still out there eating that?

Legault resigns to spend more time privately hounding minorities

Always on point
QUEBEC CITY - Quebec Premier François Legault announced his resignation today, explaining that he plans to bring his famed enthusiasm for attacking basic human rights to the private sector.John Hansen (The Beaverton)
Yeah that's fair. I have just read it's a 1.2 trillion -parameter model, that's quite insane. I wonder though if Google will update that as often as their own models, it might be that they still release newer models for themselves but then strategically hold the Apple one back a little bit, on the basis of "letting that model mature first." This will be interesting to see play out for sure.
dragonscave.space/@miki/115895…
Nah. Giving LLMs their identity is done in post-training, and Google can just remove that data for their posttraining mix for Apple. They're definitely going to have one. Since pretraining = ~60-90% of compute, redoing that part won't be that expensive. There are rumors that Google will only ship the base models anyway, and that all the fine tuning will be done internally by Apple (perhaps on Google infrastructure). Those base models have no idea what they are yet.
The most painful lesson I learned, and have yet to fully recover from, after losing the community I spent years cultivating when Twitter was sold, it’s this: the “revolution” and change so many of you say you want will never be built in public, on platforms owned by people who not only do not share your values but who see them as threats.
At any moment, the communities, businesses, networks, and even friendships you’ve built there can be taken from you because they were never truly yours.

my favorite are the Linux man pages that have no information but say you have to use the GNU info page, but there also isn't a GNU info page
I used to have a list of these whenever I wanted to make fun of Linux

so this guy claims that he was was a sex slave for Epstein & co as a kid and Trump was one of his abusers (also Clarence Thomas and some others) and that at one point he jammed a tent stake up Trump's ass and got beat for it
he says Trump's medical records will corroborate this and this is also why Trump said he "felt raped" when his medical records were stolen a while back?
