I share all my deepest thoughts and feelings with ChatGPT – but our friendship is doomed

At the moment, the AI chatbot never remembers me, so I can ask it the same questions over and over and enjoy its non-judgmental replies. The Online Safety Act, though well-intentioned, will change all that, writes Coco KhanCoco Khan (The Guardian)
Microsoft says U.S. law takes precedence over Canadian data sovereignty
digitaljournal.com/tech-scienc…
Canada privacy laws are so much weaker than Europe, and they say they could protect European data.
And I clearly see ZERO action taken by the Microsoft addict Government of Canada, that have been funnelling hundreds of millions to Microsoft tax shelter for decades.
Now ask AWS and Google. I'm sure it's the same.

Two years, but re-upping this on home UV installation in light of Our Ongoing Contingency:
exple.tive.org/blarg/2023/06/1…
Two years ago I installed a UV sterilizer in my ductwork; since then the family has enjoyed basically one case of something non-COVID (we tested, so best we know it was really not covid) and zero cases of in-house transmission of anything.
If you have the means to add this to your environment, I strongly recommend it.
One thing that I want to mention, true in 2023 and just as true in 2025: the number of corporations I’ve seen making a point to say that their HVAC systems have been upgraded, that they’ve been working to make collaboration safe in their spaces during this whole RTO push, has been zero. It has been exactly zero.
Compared to the cost of a single employee getting sick this shit is basically free. It is cheaper than toilet paper or soda. But somehow.
It is wild (and humiliating) that Canada's response to this isn't throwing people in jail and kicking Microsoft out of the country.

for decades there are been people trying to convince the Govt to stop funneling money to Microsoft for everything, which is basically direct into the US and instead use open source tech that Canadian (suppliers) could provide.
Instead they all gamed procurement to make sure these proprietary vendor could continue to bribe...

I've decided I don't want to get left behind and have taken my first steps to embrace "AI" guidance in my life.
I bought a tarot deck and will now be using "Arcana Insights" every day.
I'll also be pulling a card every time someone says "I asked chat gpt" in a work meeting.
Today I pulled 5 of swords, which perfectly captures my face whenever someone says "I asked chat gpt".
I dropped this into the meeting chat, warning of hollow victories and the need for building on evidence.

This adds (1) HTTP/3 proxy CONNECT support and (2) MASQUE CONNECT-UDP support for OpenSSL QUIC stack. Usage: curl -k -4 --http1.1 --proxy-insecure --proxytunnel --proxy-http3 --proxy https://GitHub
@icing @SimmerVigor It be very nice if there was some kind of reference server for connect UDP. Maybe a server that only enable UDP towards a small set of IP/UDP/port numbers, maybe each running a test QUIC site.
I would love testing my own implementation of CONNECT UDP with that.
Adventurous summer trip to Kyrgyzstan, day 7: after passing the glacier we came to endless plateau, 3850 m in elevation. Nothing is here, just grass, muds, small lakes and creeks full of clear water. Not even one person. Just wolves, chamois and birds.

Is there a bubble of sewists that use vintage machines?
I've just restored my grandma's old Singer 66 from around 1935 back to function.
I learned sewing as a teenager, then did a bit of it in my early 20ies but mostly gave up after that - my machine was a very cheap one from a discounter and I couldn't really make it cooperate
With my old beauty I just love how meditative treadling is and I can see myself taking up #sewing again

"To try to live without using plastic now (at least in the US) is an extremely expensive endeavor, both in terms of money and n terms of time. Plastic is so deeply integrated into so many of our systems that it is very difficult to avoid. But we are at a moment with "AI" where things aren't so deeply integrated, though corporate interests are pushing for them to be. So I believe that every act of refusal is especially powerful and meaningful now..."
