Спит Москва. В ночной столице
В этот поздний звездный час
Только Сталину не спится -
Сталин думает о нас.

Сегодня выдался богатый день, а это я только одно издание посмотрел.

- Путин подписал закон об ужесточении наказания за пропаганду наркотиков
- Путин подписал закон о наказании военнослужащих за гаджеты
- Путин разрешил признавать любые иностранные организации нежелательными
- Путин подписал закон о запрете треш-стримов

Особенно интересен закон про запрет "треш-стримов". Везде его называют именно так, хотя из текста следует, что под запрет попадают видео с любым противоправным контентом, т.е. не обязательно выгонять свою девушку на мороз или бить бабушку, можно показывать процесс дачи взятки или дискредитировать тех, кого нельзя дискредитировать. И в качестве наказания там обязательная конфискация инструментов производства материалов (компьютера как минимум т.е.). И "зарегистрированные СМИ" под него не попадают, поэтому когда РТ показывают расстрел из миномёта, то это не оно.

С наркотиками не так интересно, но тоже резиновый закон и под него попадает масса уже существующих произведений с 1 сентября 2025.

Путин подписал закон о наказании военнослужащих за гаджеты

Президент Владимир Путин подписал закон о введении ответственности для военнослужащих, которые используют личные гаджеты в зоне боевых действий. Речь идет об устройствах, которые позволяют хранить или пересылать фото, видео и данные о геолокации.

Buster is a browser extension that solves captchas for you.

It leverages the fact that blind people should be allowed to use the web too.

github.com/dessant/buster

I love this for 2 reasons:

1. Fuck Captchas
2. Fuck Captcha Companies getting free labor from people to train AI.

I hate this because i fear if it catches on this will negatively impact blind people's ability to use the web.

See also points 1 & 2 re EVERYONE.

As I told the @washingtonpost , Elon Musk’s political advocacy has erased any trust in the platform’s neutrality & spotlights which accounts get restricted, suspended, supported, or promoted. Neutrality has left the building. Institutions must adapt, faster.

Elon Musk’s X accused of bias after pro-Harris accounts labeled as ‘spam’

Three prominent pro-Harris X accounts have been labeled as spam, raising questions about whether the platform is intentionally limiting accounts opposing Trump.

2.9 billion? With a B? Sweet, puberty! When you consider that there are about 7 billion people on Earth, that's 41.4% of the entire planet! Anyone could be on that list, including you and me! tomsguide.com/computing/online…


2.9 billion hit in one of the largest data breaches ever — full names, addresses and SSNs exposed

do not drink something when you listen to this. there is your warning. so I wanted to see how bixby sounded when it spelled something. I started bixby on my watch and asked it how to spell something. I wasn't expecting what happened. it switched to my pphone, and used my personal voice to spell it. I was hoping for the watch to spell it with the voice I have selected on my watch. that did not happen. so here is bixby using my voice to spell something. this is rather painful, but funny to listen to.

Did you know elephants are helping shape robot design?

Their trunks' precise movements have been inspiring new tech innovations for 20 years. Researchers are using the insights to create robotic limbs with precise grips that can work to pick up objects in the unpredictable real world:
theconversation.com/elephants-…
#tech #research #wildlife


Elephants use the tips of their trunks to grasp things with great precision – how this can help robotic design

New research has found that the two ‘fingers’ on the tip of an elephant’s trunk exert different forces. The finding will be used to improve the abilities of bio-inspired robots.

A friend asked me to demo the sound effects I've made with #ElevenLabs. This ended up longer than I thought, so have almost 20 minutes of random noises, music and utterances that make absolutely no sense. Enjoy.

Ein schlechter Scherz? Leider nein. Statt das 49-Euro-Ticket zu sichern, will die Regierung das Dienstwagenprivileg ausbauen.

Wir fordern zusammen mit vielen weiteren Verbänden, den Haushalt an sozialer Gerechtigkeit und Klimaschutz zu orientieren!

49-Euro-Ticket für alle statt Luxus-Dienstwagen für wenige! Dafür machen wir Druck! Willst du uns dabei helfen? Dann unterschreibe jetzt unsere Petition!
