it’s incredibly blackpilling to me that it takes rising gas prices and rising gas prices alone to have people turn against the war in iran, and not the american government murdering thousands of children and civilians in iran. americans are incredibly selfish

I think about this quote from the Luddite movement all the time
John Booth, a 19-year-old apprentice who joined a Luddite attack on a textile mill in April 1812. He was injured, detained and died after being allegedly tortured to give up the identity of his fellow Luddites.
Booth's last words became a legend: "Can you keep a secret?" he whispered to the local priest, who attested that he could.
The dying Booth replied, "So can I."

There are a million children in Aotearoa, about 700 of them have been prescribed puberty blockers (that's 0.07%) Medication decisions should be decided by the child, their caregivers, and the relevant health professionals, not a party relying on imported culture wars to stay in power

Join me on my journey from "how am I a games guy who's intimidated to edit his own BIOS" to "I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore"
Seeing the numbers laid out like this really hit me: since I’m surrounded by very techy people, I figured my foot-dragging on upgrading was just me being an 18th century Shaker trapped in the body of a 21st century games journalist. But plenty of people besides me are still happily ("happily") using Windows 10–especially, as 404 points out, schools and other institutions that are now over a barrel if they own machines that aren’t compatible with Windows 11–making this forced change utterly arbitrary and needlessly severe. 404 and others have pointed out the immense amount of e-waste this all stands to create; putting this on schools and government institutions at a time when both are under attack seems like it stands to do nothing but further degrade essential services. And that’s to say nothing of all the individuals who might find themselves feeling squeezed to buy a new computer at a time when money is tighter than ever. 

There’s no reason for any of this to be happening the way it is beyond forced obsolescence and for Microsoft to flaunt its useless AI products and pump its bottom line. New OSes happen, but this whole rollout doesn’t need to be going the way it’s going. I’ll admit to finding something grimly comforting in seeing what I thought was just my own inadequacy at computers despite working with them as having at least some systemic roots I can rail at instead of feeling bad about myself. There’s even something inspiring, if not a bit exhausting, in learning there are always new things I can get motivated to fight back against. I'm full of piss and vinegar! I'm alive!

i really want us, collectively, to understand that chat format LLMs cannot assess their own behavior. if you ask it what it did, it will construct a likely response to your query and that is all. "why did you do this" is projection. even accusing them of "lying" is projection.

Systemic classism and racism should be understood in many ways, including the part where we spend huge resources protecting the wealthy from any potential threat and basically nothing on protecting the marginalized from being preyed upon by scammers operating right in front of our faces.

Production is carried on for profit, not for use. There is no provision that all those able and willing to work will always be in a position to find employment; an “army of unemployed” almost always exists. The worker is constantly in fear of losing his job. Since unemployed and poorly paid workers do not provide a profitable market, the production of consumers’ goods is restricted, and great hardship is the consequence. Technological progress frequently results in more unemployment rather than in an easing of the burden of work for all. The profit motive, in conjunction with competition among capitalists, is responsible for an instability in the accumulation and utilization of capital which leads to increasingly severe depressions. Unlimited competition leads to a huge waste of labor, and to that crippling of the social consciousness of individuals which I mentioned before.

I'd say there is a balance to be struck between being rightly highly sceptical of the current gen of AI and knowing & understanding it enough to be versant in it. 1. The majority of current AI noise is hype 2. Most of that hype doesn't understand the technology, particularly its limits 3. LLMs ...

Perhaps the bigger crime than leaks that “could’ve gotten our pilots killed” is the fact that those pilots repeatedly bombed a Yemeni cancer hospital (via @dropsitenews.com)
Tweet from Drop Site News:

BREAKING: The United States has conducted airstrikes on an oncology hospital under construction in Saada, Yemen, injuring two people. This marks the second attack on the facility, following strikes on March 16, Houthi Health Ministry reports.
A number of Yemeni media outlets report U.S. conducted 12 airstrikes in Yemen's Saada province today, with 9 targeting Saada city and its surroundings, and 3 hitting the districts of Saqayn, Kotaf, and Sohar.

one of my favorite arguments people make for chatgpt shit is basically that it can help you look things up and search engines suck now so they fix that problem and, brother, if that don't just beat all. who do you think made the search engines suck and replaced them with bullshit extruders.
