💰 Spain is done with AI slop and disinfo

｢ The Spanish bill, which needs to be approved by the lower house, classifies non-compliance with proper labelling of AI-generated content as a "serious offence" that can lead to fines of up to 35 million euros ($38.2 million) or 7% of their global annual turnover ｣

#introduction

As I just joined social.coop, it may be a good time to re-introduce myself.

I studied architecture and organization development, and work now at tangente.coop supporting community-led and non-speculative #cooperative #cohousing projects in #Spain.

Also experienced in sustainable and people-centered urban develoment, and urban #cycling #mobility.

I love and support #FLOSS #freesoftware, digital autonomy and libre culture in general.

Hi Mastodon. I'm Mick, a wildlife guide based in Granada region of #Spain. I'm looking forward to connect with fellow birders, botanists & entomologists throughout the Fediverse.

Regularly out in the countryside of Andalucia & further afield posting info & images about my adventures & encounters with the natural world.

Here's a photo of a close encounter with Iberian Lynx I took a few years ago.

Devastating scenes of piled-up cars in #Valencia, #Spain today after yesterday’s historic flooding. A year’s worth of rain fell in a few hours with a peak of 500mm.

Poslední checkpoint závodu #thesuntrip2024 - osamělý strom u města Molina de Aragón. Dorazil jsem k němu se zcela vybitým kolem krátce po bouřce s krupobitím, před kterou jsem se schoval v nedalekém borovicovém lese.

Checkpointů jsem projel 9 z 11 - nebo ze 13, když počítám i cíl v Chámbery. Vynechali jsme z @cobic ty saharské, protože jsme vyrazili s panely neotestovanými na prudkém slunci ve vedru a navíc je cestou asi trochu poničili.

Pocity: smutek, že jsem zase nejpomalejší. Závrať z toho, co všechno jsem po cestě viděl a jakou vzdálenost jsem urazil (přes 7000 km z Prahy). Určitá úleva, že přeci jen postupuju ke konci cesty...

Demonstration in Spain Supporting Sahrawi Cause, Condemning Madrid Accords

Madrid, November 12, 2023 (SPS) - A demonstration gathering thousands of Sahrawis and supporters took place on Saturday in the Spanish capital Madrid to express their support for the Sahrawi cause and condemn the infamous tripartite Madrid Accords si…

Today, two open letters from academics on the scientific arguments against the current #CSS (client side scanning) initiatives have been released:

* The first (in English, internationally coordinated) one is online at tinyurl.com/CSAScientistsLette… and still open for additional signatures.

* The second (in German, by #Austrian academics) one is online at ins.jku.at/chatcontrol/ and explicitly includes law experts in addition to the arguments from a security, privacy, and AI perspective.

This debate is expected to gain new steam with #Spain taking over the EU council presidency, given recently leaked statements like "Ideally, in our view, it would be desirable to legislatively prevent EU-based service providers from implementing end-to-end encryption" (wired.co.uk/article/europe-bre…).

Please boost on any channels you deem adequate. The discussion is still open, and we have little time to bring it to a more rational level.

Leaked Government Document Shows Spain Wants to Ban End-to-End Encryption

In response to an EU proposal to scan private messages for illegal material, the country's officials said it is “imperative that we have access to the data.”

With a delay, we arrive at the last window of the accessibility for the blind advent calendar.
This one might be known to some of you as the news has reached quite some peak in media outlets worldwide. Accessible Christmas was an app developed to let blind people enjoy the Christmas lights of Madrit through a geolocation-based audiodescription experience. The great thing about it was, you could also access these descriptions wherever you were. Many blind people do not have the privilege of worldwide mobility so bringing bits of the world closer to them is what I call an extension of accessible tourism. Describing the world you experience through textual blogs, social media postings, audio recordings and sharing interesting highlights of life in different countries is what you can do next year to make others travel even if they physically can't. If you're the one unable to travel, here are a couple of things that help me personally when I wish I could be elsewhere but can't:
1. Play a random radio station in a language you understand nothing of or find the music that you like coming from somewhere obscure or far away. I enjoy checking out local charts in other countries just to see how different languages fit into the music trends of today.
2. Try to find recordings of places on sites like Freesound or Soundcloud; close your eyes and imagine.
3. Read travel blogs, watch or listen to content on the Internet of others travelling where descriptions are abundant; research how topics that interest you are managed elsewhere.
4. Try to find penpals, somebody to exchange occasional packages with and simply make friends; if that's possible, try to find a local language conversation group, groups for people who have moved to your city etc. meet, ask questions but most of all, listen!
5. Maybe one day make your own advent calendar.

This app allows blind people to enjoy Christmas lights - COOL BLIND TECH

The Human Language and Accessibility Technologies (HULAT) research group at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) has developed and validated a mobile application that allows people with visual impairments to enjoy Christmas lights in the city …

Today let's go to Spain where a system allowing the blind to control elevators using a smartphone app has been developed.
The way it works is by detecting a Bluetooth beacon near a supported elevator using the dedicated app and calling the elevator almost as if we pressed the physical button. We can then choose the floor where we want to go and, once we board the elevator, notify the app about it and wait until we reach the destination. We will be notified about the arrival through a notification in the app. The developers have even thought of Siri support so you can set shortcuts for favourite elevator +floor combinations. The solution is presented within the following session of the Zeroconf conference in Vienna:
