So far, absolute fuck-all. Kallas urging "restrain" and reminding everyone the EU has repeatedly said Maduro lacks legitimacy (her words). Disappointing, but not surprising.
vainas que la gente no entiende: defender a mi país de la agresión extranjera no significa ser leal a un gobierno local, simplemente significa defender la posibilidad de construir la vida colectiva en nuestro propios términos y no en aquellos que nos quieren imponer
#CzechRepublic criminalises criticising the #elites 😵 Starting on 1st January this year, you can go to prison in #Czechia if you incite "class hatred" or make #propaganda of "#communism / "#communist movement", as if it was the same as #nazi propaganda. This is effectively an indirect way to normalise #fascism... And to criminalise criticising the elites! And nobody's talking about this!!! european-left.org/czech-law-cr…
Nobody's talking about this because it's not quite true. Nobody criminalises criticising the elites. It criminalises those who "founds, supports, or promotes a Nazi, communist, or other movement which demonstrably aims to suppress human rights and freedoms, or incites racial, ethnic, national, religious or class hatred, or hatred against another group of persons". No metions about critisizing. Class hatred is not criticising.
In Czechia we had a communist regime in years 1948-1989. The communist party made nearly the same evil as nazis did. For example: Just because of different political opinions they executed 248 people, imprisoned 205 000 people (8 000 died there), sent 20 000 people to work camps, and forced 22 000 people to work in technical auxiliary battalions. Another 450 people trying to escape from the country was killed by our own border patrol. This communist party used their power to completely forbid other parties, to suppress religion, to control TV, radio newspapers. They controlled who can or cannot study, publish books, or even sing based on people's political views...
The party who did all this is still operating here, proudly carrying the legacy of all this, honoring all the symbols, adoring soviet mass killers. That's the KSČM party who is now complaining about the new law, trying to shift the narrarative to "criticising the elites".
@stepan with that reasoning, you should also forbid all capitalist propaganda, for all the people who died or were/are imprisoned under several capitalist dictatorships around the world. Communism is a liberation ideology, misused by authoritarians in several countries, as was the case of Czechia. We actually never had a communist regime anywhere in the world. Forbidding an ideology that is openly critical of the elites is the same thing as forbidding the critic itself, and a very dangerous step
Words are constantly shifting their meaning based on experience. Here communism means a totalitarian regime we all experienced and suffered under, because the suppressing party named themselves as communist party and because the ideology served well to destroy lives.
You can argument the same about national socialism (nazism in short), that the ideology was just missused. Yet you don't mind forbidding it as you understand the evil behind it from the experience.
@stepan nazism was never a liberation ideology. It has always been based in nationalism, tribalism, hatred of everything that is different and foreign. An absolute opposite to communism. You write like someone who never read anything of both. Please make sure to study a bit about them before making such public declarations.
You on the other hand speak like someone blinded with one ideology and ignoring many similar aspects with other ideologies. But in fact both leading to the same evil as I was trying to show you on our experience. When I poke into your arguments you immediately start to throw arrogant personal attacks. I am ending it here as it is not discussion anymore, its becoming a fight.
Das Problem hatte ich mit #Hugo auch, als ich damit mal ein Projekt erstellen wollte. Das Problem, dass die Hersteller solcher statischen Site Generatoren keine Dokus schreiben können, hat z. B. Eleventy auch. Da geht das auch nur mit Tutorials von Dritten, dass man überhaupt mal was versteht. Einen Einstieg findet.
Versuche mich gerade ein wenig mit #Hugo vertraut zu machen.
Die Doku ist für mich gewöhnungsbedürftig. Da werden einem nur alle möglichen Einstellungen um die Ohren gehauen, bei denen ich mir frage, was die von mir wollen.

"Hey ChatGPT, I want a new TV. I heard that LG TVs are good. Which LG TV is the best?"
"Good choice! You are absolutely right that LG TVs are a popular choice. But have you heard about [brand] TVs? [brand] TVs are [advertisement here]. Do you want me to show you where you can get a good deal on the [brand] XY-1234?"
This is the future.
ChatGPT will soon generate answers that have advertisements woven into them. What ChatGPT will tell you will be influenced by which company paid OpenAI the most.
I wonder how many people won't be bothered by that at all and continue to use ChatGPT, just as many people (boomers mostly) aren't bothered by advertisement breaks when watching cable TV and continue to find excuses for using the product.
OpenAI is still struggling to make profits off of this crappy technology. And that after announcing an "erotic chat mode", making ChatGPT "more horny". In a last effort to prevent the AI bubble from inevitably bursting, OpenAI is turning to the only reliable profit model they know: enshittifying products with ads. The LLM technology is a dying techology, similar to how nobody hears of 2021's NFTs anymore. Maybe the AI bubble won't burst in 2026 just yet, if enough naive people keep using ChatGPT so that the new ad revenue can keep OpenAI afloat for a little while longer. But the bubble will burst. Businesses betting on this technology, in 2026, isn't an intelligent move, to say the least. If your employer is fully committed to the AI hype, consider looking for a new job … while you still receive a salary and can take the job search more casually.

Schlager-Sänger G. G. Anderson hat tatsächlich gesungen, und jetzt kurz festhalten, "Nein heißt ja Wenn man lächelt so wie Du Warum willst Du Deinem Herz nicht trau'n". Oha, oha.
Sehr viele Schlager der 50er bis 80er Jahre, vermutlich auch noch viele der 90er, sind ganz, ganz schlecht gealtert, was deren Texte angeht. Und seine gehören definitiv ganz mächtig dazu.
Liebe user die ihr euer Zelt bei Mastodon,social aufgeschlagen habt.
Bitte verteilt euch und nutzt andere Instanz und macht nicht den Fehler und baut diese eine Instanz zu einem Gatekeeper auf, allein wegen der schieren Masse an user.
Wenn ihr dazu hilfe braucht, meldet euch bitte.
Denn e gibt im #Fediverse die Möglichkeit, das ihr umziehen könnt 👍
Entspricht aber leider bis heute in vielen Gesellschaften der Realität. Zum einen sind viele Heiraten immer noch politisch motiviert, strategische Verpartnerungen zur Mehrung des Reichtums, und andere, meist erste, heiraten sind rein genetisch-fortpflanzig motiviert, welches Genmaterial die widerstandsfähigsten Kinder produziert. Ich glaube deshalb halten viele erste Ehen auch nicht, weil nach dem Kinderkriegen die Basis fehlt. Erst die nächste Heirat ist dann i.d.r. aus Liebe.
How am I spending my saturday night? Applying for jobs, because work is good and I really don't want to stop working when I finish my program in February.
Danke übrigens, dass du immer so gute Bildbeschreibungen lieferst! Im Gegensatz zu den immer häufiger werdenden KI generierten, die man sonst so lesen muss, sind deine richtig angenehm und nehmen ein Stück in den Moment mit.
@WestphalDenn Gerne ❤️ Mir ist das ins Blut übergegangen, meine Bilder zu beschreiben, so gut ich kann, das gehört zum Erstellen eines Toots einfach dazu. Ich find KI außerdem aus tausend Gründen meh und möchte keine nutzen, wenn's nicht sein muss. Durch den Zusatz "künstlich" ist noch nix je besser geworden. Und hier ist es so unnötig wie es nur sein kann. Ich bin gesundheitlich nicht eingeschränkt in einer Weise, die mir das Erstellen einer Bildbeschreibung unmöglich macht, also mach ich eine.
Es wäre schön, wenn Hamburg und Bewohner*innen bis Montag mit Schneeräumen und Streuen anfangen würden. Als blinder Mensch nicht fühlen zu können, ob man sich gerade auf dem Gehweg, der Grünfläche oder der Straße befindet, macht die eigenständige Orientierung teils unmöglich.
I certainly hope the EU can put the same sanctions on the US for attacking Venezuela as they did on Russia for attacking Ukraine. This is indefensible.
Los ataques se han reportado cerca de objetivos militares y aeropuertos. Según CBS, la Casa Blanca está al tanto, pero no hay confirmación oficial. El Gobierno de Maduro llama a la “lucha armada” ante la “agresión imperialista”

Hello internet, I've been lurking for a while but let's try an #introduction.
I'm a recovering tumblr girlie (does fandom exist on mastodon? for better or worse?) who likes #reading, #knitting, and cross-country #skiing as soon as there's enough snow here the #PNW.
I believe in tech that helps build a more liberatory future and want to know what abolitionist, anit-authoritarian #datascience might look like.
Hello from my new Mastodon account. I previously was @kateiacy@med-mastodon.com, but the med-mastodon instance is no more. Previous followers, please follow me here. Also, please boost to help others find my new account.

Mysterious emails from a woman named Donna Triply: For years, I was amused to receive emails from Donna. I often wondered who she was. These seemingly random emails would come from her under various circumstances. After probably 15 years after sending my first email, I figured out who this fabled woman was. Before I tell you, I have to say that my bestie and I had a huge laugh about this Donna person this morning over coffee. My friend also wondered who this person could be. She did know some Donna's, but the last names didn't match. Then, the light bulb went on for her as it did for me. This email header started with DoNotReply which, for a screen-reader user sounds like Donna Triply. So, the infamous woman has come to light and we now know who she is, visiting us from the auto-responder universe!
so the US bombed Venezuela while Chinese envoys were present, and China responded by taking Taiwan since it already perceives US aggression all while Israel and Russia are redoubling their respective war efforts, which the US is involved in by proxy.
Měl jsem včera noční, tak jsem viděl všechnu tu parádu. Od Finů, přes Čechy až jsem pak potřeboval na chvilku odskočit a ulítlo mi 5 kanadských fíků ☺️
No aj když máš vyspojlerovaný výsledek, je to hezké koukání. Každá ⅓ jiná, a i když výsledek hovoří jednoznačně, aj ti 🇨🇭 hráli dobře. Já se chystám na 🇫🇮 🇺🇸 to bylo neskutečně rychlé a koukatelné. V 📺 stejně dávají prd. Nebo nějaký prd opakují 🤣

Remember when we found out that Ashley Madison's core competency wasn't connecting humans, it was stringing lonely dudes along with chatbots? And like eleven women had ever used that site at all?
'“Tinder for Nazis” hit by 100GB data leak, thousands of users exposed'
Also exposed: it's a sausage fest, with almost no women. Shocker.
I'm coining it now: "Fashley Madison."

I used to believe the biggest problem with long-term support (LTS) distributions was the significant delays in offering stability and feature improvements from the latest versions of applications, but as of a couple of minutes ago, I now believe the biggest problem with them is the significant delays in offering the majority of accessibility improvements within the stack AND individual applications. toot.cafe/users/matt/statuses/…
Incidentally, on the topic of LTS distros where Orca works well on Wayland, particularly with GNOME, I regret that the implementation of proper keystroke monitoring and grabbing, which I prototyped in mid 2024 and which someone else brought to production in time for GNOME 48, didn't get there in time for RHEL 10, which ships GNOME 47. Maybe I could have done more to bring that important functionality to production sooner, but my efforts were focused elsewhere in the second half of 2024.
Welcome to the second part of the new years 2026 stream with me, @ivan_soto, @BrailleScreen, @draeand, Carter Temm and any others who end up joining for a second night of New years fun! We'll spend the first bit of time answering any pending questions from yesterday's stream, and then things are going to get very upbeat and enjoyable, you'll have to listen and find out why! anyaud.io/listen?audio=T8s4g-m…
Hello! Sorry I missed yesterday's stream. I was on vacation, hanging out with family. I still am, by the way. But I'm glad I could join you for this second one. Happy New Year, and I am definitely looking forward to what you have to show us!
I've already got ideas for when I can stream and accounts are enabled. I've got plans and ideas. However, when it is, I am not going to stream when you guys are streaming. There is no way thatI am doing a stream when you are, especially if I want to watch.
Apparently Redspot, or any NVGT game on the latest development version of NVGT, takes about 30 or so seconds to start up on my computer. I know this, because when I installed the September 29th version of NVGT, any game or script started up almost instantly. What could be going on here?
Also holy crap the ruger is a hole other beast. Sam tupy using it like a western gunslinger. Also I had to smoke up a bowl just to celebrate this game!
@cubic Discussed this in a recent podcast, would be interested to get your take on it. I don't have it myself, so looking to hear from those that do, should you feel so inclined. It was episode 64.
An interesting thing. I give a name and password the first time, no problem. Go to play it says 'You haven't given a name yet.' Of course when I go back to set my name and password it says 'Someone has already used this name...' Conundrum indeed.
@FreakyFwoof So I apologize for that confusion. All you need to do to play is to go into the options menu and set your name, then click play. If you have any reason you don't want anyone else to log in with that name so you can be constantly identifiable, you can use the allocate a name option to asign a name to a password which, if done, must be set in the options menu if the given name (also set from the options menu) is used to log in.
Will RS be open sourced or at least self-hostable when it's in a more stable state so that people aren't left with a useless bunch of ones and zeros should the main server die again? #StopKillingGames
@cubic Even if it takes a while, as I've aptly demonstrated recently I tend to provide stuff open source and/or more freely once I've 100% fully moved on from it and many more active things besides. So in short no I'm gonna keep a few things such as the rs code to myself for now haha, but unless I have no say in the matter, I don't think that in the end much of this stuff will die forever even if it does for some years until I determine beyond certain that it's time to move on to bigger and better things with no going back.
Yeah, that was why I was trying to figure out if it was another crash and no one was around to fix it or if it was planned. Both work just fine. I had a day of fun, so.
@ShotgunSpoon It's back for the moment, but indeed, it could stay down at any time should we have any reason to do that. In this case I got so tired after the streams I forgot to push a commit to git with the latest stabilizing change, thus when someone else on the team updated the server it reverted my stabilizing change and it crashed until I woke up. Others on the team will have more access to restart completely broken servers soon enough, I went from lets pwn anyone who gets my code 6 years ago to lets actually let some of my friends help me develop this thing, meanwhile dumping a bunch of other code and prereleases at the community and find that, to mine and the game's detriment, it's taking a second for my spirit to be ready to give up even more control in the form of letting others have any sort of ssh access to my server to fix such things haha. I'll get there very soon but I can only do so much character development in so much time hahaha
@ivan_soto@dragonscave.spacelol totally reasonable man. I was just unsure if I needed to keep waiting for it to come back or if it was goign to stay down until an actual release. I was surprised to see how many people had the dev flag, because of all the obvious reasons. Growth is good though, keep it up.
