Ahora mismo el Camino Nuevo de Picanya, carretera que une Valencia con los pueblos del sur es literalmente un río de gente cargada de víveres para los afectados.
La solidaridad también se desborda.

Don't Accept Free PS5s from Grieving Parents

Got a very rancid scam text just now which I’ve pasted below. Warn your friends and family to look out for crap like this. It’s all fake.
The winter heating subsidy benefit plan provided by the government reminds you:
November is about to begin the severe cold period of this winter. The local council will decide to issue you a winter heating subsidy. If you can receive our information to prove that you meet the conditions for receiving it, there is no age limit for this subsidy plan. You can apply in the link Once you apply, we will review and issue it as soon as possible without affecting your receipt of other benefits.

Thank you for your support to the UK Government.
I've never understood how these people can set up webforms to capture all sorts of data, make sites look as official as possible by scraping logos and designing cunningly similar subdomains to the real gov ones, even putting genuine contact links at the bottoms of emails and such.
And then writing things like 'provided by the government reminds you'. Which is just not phrasing that we use, you know?
“El president de la Generalitat dijo a las 13.00 horas en un vídeo que la Dana se debilitaba a las 18.00 y se iba a Cuenca, cuando los expertos y los meteorólogos de todas las televisiones insitían en lo contrario. Se congratuló públicamente de que no hubiera “alerta hidrológica” poco después de que su propio departamento de Emergències la hiciera pública.”
Que un grupo fascista tenga estatutos de sindicato para poder personarse judicialmente como parte en todo lo que se les ocurra, muy del espíritu de la Ley de Libertad Sindical no es.
¿Hasta cuándo abusarás de nuestra paciencia, "Manos Limpias"?
Algún sindicato debería denunciar el fraude de ley de constituir sindicatos para fines distintos del que tienen. Por ejemplo.
O un denunciado por ellos pedir amparo al constitucional por ser denunciado por un sindicato de dudoso estatus...
At #FOSDEM 2025, for the first time, we will be hosting the Android Open Source Devroom, bringing together developers working on the open source components of Android operating system and associated board support packages
We are looking for speakers: aosp-devs.org/fosdem25-cfp.htm…
But, don't wait too long before submitting a proposal - the CfP ends 1st December!
reminder: the Luddites were not anti-*technology*. They were anti-*factory owners firing weavers and replacing them with lower-paid loom workers*. They could have retrained the weavers and kept their pay high, but bosses gonna boss. We are all Luddites today.
The name later became a slur because the bosses won, and used propaganda to hide the history, and because smashing looms is a dramatic symbol, and humans like retelling dramatic stories, not depressing facts.

Všichni jsme se dočkali! Je to tu! Zasloužený pátek!
Dneska konečně odfrčí všechno vánoční zboží do obchodů. Už se u nás na základně nedalo pohybovat. A od pondělí začneme vyjíždět a dělat výlohy a měnit zboží.
Vánoce se blíží milánkové!
Mějte sváteční náladu. 😊👋

I forget who recommended the Alamaxa series here, by Hadeer Elsbai. I'm reading the first book, The daughters of Izdihar and enjoying it a lot, so thanks, whoever it was. It's a fantasy series set in something like an analogue to 19th century India or perhaps the Levant, mixing fantastic themes on magic with social concerns such as women's emancipation.

Před rokem mi vypnul mozek a koupil jsem si lano a uvázal smyčku. Vždycky jsem říkal, že to bylo pomatení. Kdybych to chtěl skončit, jako ex-paramedik to udělám čistě, bezbolestně a kurva jednoduše. Ale já nechci. Já to nechci vzdát. Hele, už jsem v životě zdolal větší “krize”.
Tohle není konec. Buď najdu cestu, nebo, ač nechci, začnu znovu. Ale konec, na ten je ještě čas. Však jsem slíbil, že dorazím na #mastopivo

🤣 Russia has fined Google 2 undecillion roubles or USD$20 decillion for blocking Russian media on YT etc.
If not paid in 219 weeks that increases to USD$1 googol.

Russia is a laughing stock. Putin, you're a muppet. This is Austin Powers / Dr Evil level fines.
Russia has fined Google more money than there is in the entire world
Russia has slapped Google with a fine of $US20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 for blocking state media channels on YouTube.Maddy Morwood (ABC News)
Yesterday, my students presented our work at the ACM ASSETS conference. "Not Only Annpying. But Dangerous": Devising an Ecology of Protections for Photosensitive Social Media Users" dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/366…
In this study, we investigate prior work, conduct survey inquiries, and use co-design methods to explore how social media design choices influence exposure to dangerous flashing content which can trigger seizures, migraines, nausea, and disorientation for photosensitive users.
Through our analysis, we identify the current ecosystem of flashing content on the Internet, and propose a more robust ecology of protections, including on-device graphics filters that directly edit pixels buffers to prevent flashing before it occurs.
First, existing WCAG guidelines against auto-play of media need to be enforced. Second, users should have device level control over animation that may trigger flashing, and this control shpuld not be able to be reset by platforms that try to enforce autoplay to support their own ad revenue. Third, other users need to be aware of what makes content dangerous, so thay they may stop circulating it and causing accidental exposure. Fourth, creators need to know what makes content dangerous, and how they can test for danger, to prevent them from creating dangerous media in the first place. This includes corporate creators, like movie studios, whose ads for acrion movies have been a recent source of autoplaying strobing content in movie trailors posted via ad platforms. Fifth, platforms, including GIF libraries, but also all social platforms, need to implement reporting mechanisms specifically for flashing content which can remove that content from circulation. Sixth, there should be actual penalties for platforms and creators that do not react to, correct, and remove dangerous content, or who force auto-play on users.
And seventh, device manufacturers and operating system developers need to create on-device filters that eliminate flashing through simple real time post-processing. Machine Learning classification and prediction algorithms ARE NOT NECESSARY. We can do this with simple math. Yes it may sometimes look weird. But also people won't be dying in their sleep.
This work is very important to me, and I've been working on it (on the side) since 2017. I wasn't allowed to pursue it fully as a graduate student. As faculty, I still had to string the project together on wishes. And I'm still looking for a collaborator to work on the implementation, though if industry would just get their shit together and do it themselves, that'd be great.
