I did that with paperbacks because there was no digital proof. That Amazon lock them behind DRM should be the criminal thing!
And not just China, I like to watch people reading Reddit stories on YT when doing chores, and "redrum" (murder), "grape" (rape) and "spicy time" (sex) are words these people have to use to avoid drawing the ire of the allmighty algorithms.
For now that's just "simple" keyword and voice / face recognition. As tech progresses and models get smaller, it'll become a lot more pernicious.
I think a "no more discussions of copyright infringement and vaccine conspiracy theories on the internet" law (that actually works) is something we will get in the next 20-ish years in at least one major country.
Spent this morning in court in support of folks being evicted from a local "co-op". The management company's agent was so disorganized she didn't know how much one of the tenants owed, slashing the amount in half right at the bench when she realized the numbers she was given didn't add up. She also, apparently, accidentally dismissed one of her own evictions and was surprised to learn that it wasn't on the docket. Management dismissed something like 6 of the 9 cases when they apparently realized their evidence wouldn't hold up, and this one case got caught up in that wave, presumably by accident/incompetence.
The whole thing is fucking awful, and the ways co-ops fail marginalized folks again and again while patting themselves on the backs need to be addressed.
Meanwhile, the case before those was a crypto bro who couldn't pay his rent because his company's investment in a mining operation fell through, and he wanted to pay rent in equity/work for his apartment complex as a "financial engineer," putting their assets on the blockchain.
I'm thinking a lot more seriously about a career change after this. The world is burning. It doesn't need more big tech in it.
🏠 Stěhování je vždy těžké a postihlo to také web infoek.cz.
🔄V současné době dochází k přesunu na nový server. Několik hodin nebudou publikovány nové příspěvky, web bude zcela nedostupný, bude docházet k problémům s načítáním obrázků a mohou nastat i další potíže....
🚀Brzy bude infoek.cz mít nový domov, aby mohl nadále růst.
Děkuji za pochopení,

Tbh I hate everything about this and it makes me want to run far, far away from AP and never look back:
ATP or just doing a ground-up version of my own protocol becomes more and more tempting by the day. Which leaves me sad, but here we are.

@alecaddd Just watched your awesome Customizable Shortcuts video series. Where do you intend for the shortcuts editor window to be? In the general preferences/settings tab?
Also, if you ever implement a HUD, then please make `?` the shortcut to bring that up. Youtube has a good implementation that you can refer. (Press ? while watching a video)
Yes, I'm aiming at implementing a HUD and using the `?` key to trigger it

#TrinidadYTobago🇹🇹 anuncia que retirará las tres carabelas de Colón (que “descubrió” las islas en su tercer viaje) de su escudo de armas y las reemplazará por el instrumento musical nacional, el ‘steelpan’.
El ‘steelpan’ es a su vez una apropiación de un símbolo imperialista: los trinidadeños descubrieron que si martilleabas un barril de petróleo (traído por las multinacionales estadounidenses para llevarse el oro negro del país) podías afinarlo
In the September Community Office Hours, we chatted with the voice of our community - the Thunderbird Council! @dannycolin and @clokep, two current council members, talk about the council's origins, its responsibilities, and how to get involved.
Most of the energy debate is focused on the tip of the iceberg - electricity.
But almost 80% of our energy use is for heat and transport relying heavily on fossil fuels.
Decarbonisation requires an all-sector approach.

I've looked at this at one point, and the percentage was very different between countries. US was the lowest I could find.
There was 0 statistical rigor to that analysis and the studies might very well have been comparing Apples to oranges, so take that with a grain of salt.
