After successfully fending off three subpoenas from filmmakers seeking user data related to piracy discussions, Reddit is back in federal court. The company is now requesting over $55,000 in legal compensation, suggesting that these repeated requests amount to an "anti-piracy publicity campaign" that chills lawful speech by Reddit’s users.

It's uncanny.

Here are the Declaration of Independence’s grievances against King George III. Many apply to Trump.

Mamdani, a 33-year-old New York state assemblyman, shocked the political world last month with a primary win over former Governor Andrew Cuomo, who resigned his position in 2021 after several women accused him of sexual harassment.

The Times noted that on the campaign trail, Mamdani touted his Muslim faith and South Asian ancestry. He was born in Uganda in 1991 and moved with his parents to South Africa five years later. Two years later, the family moved to New York.

::: spoiler The Times report cited a figure who goes by the name Crémieux on X and Substack:

• Last month’s cyberattack appears to have been carried out in order to see if Columbia was still using race-conscious affirmative action in its admission policies after the Supreme Court effectively barred the practice in 2023.
• While Mr. Mamdani was not a target of the hack, the information about him was included in a database of millions of student applications to Columbia going back decades. The data was shared with The Times by an intermediary who goes by the name Crémieux on Substack and X. He provided the data under condition of anonymity, although his identity has been made public elsewhere. He is an academic who opposes affirmative action and writes often about I.Q. and race.
  :::

One of the speakers at the conference is billed under a social media alias, Cremieux, but the Guardian has corroborated that the account is apparently run by Jordan Lasker, a long-time proponent of eugenics.

::: spoiler The @cremieuxrecueil X account has been boosted or engaged with dozens of times by that platform’s proprietor, Elon Musk, often on the topic of falling birthrates.

• On 27 November, Musk reposted a Cremieux comment on falling birthrates, adding: “With rare exception, all countries are trending towards population collapse.”
• On 29 April, Cremieux posted: “Only about a third of the world even meets replacement rate fertility. This is the biggest problem of our time.” Musk responded: “Yes.”
• Musk has also boosted or responded favorably to Cremieux posts on other rightwing hobby horses such as crime in Portland, Oregon, and allegations that Democrats had created loopholes in the asylum system.
• Away from X, Cremieux runs a Substack also featuring posts on the supposed relationships between race and IQ. A prominently featured post there seeks to defend the argument that average national IQs vary by up to 40 points, with countries in Europe, North America, and East Asia at the high end and countries in the global south at the low end, and several African countries purportedly having average national IQs at a level that experts associate with mental impairment.

Il nuovo film di Paolo Sorrentino, La Grazia, aprirà in prima mondiale la 82/a Mostra del cinema di Venezia. Il film sarà presentato in prima mondiale mercoledì 27 agosto 2025 nella Sala Grande del Palazzo del Cinema (Lido di Venezia), nella serata di apertura dell’82. Biennale Cinema. Il protagonista è Toni Servillo, alla sua settima collaborazione con il regista Premio Oscar. Nel cast anche Anna Ferzetti.

“Sono molto felice che ad aprire l’82. Mostra d’Arte Cinematografica di Venezia sia il nuovo, attesissimo film di Paolo Sorrentino – dichiara Alberto Barbera – Mi piace ricordare che uno dei più importanti e apprezzati autori italiani a livello internazionale esordì proprio alla Biennale di Venezia nel 2001 con il suo primo film, L’uomo in più, nei miei primi anni da Direttore artistico. Un legame con la Mostra consolidato nel corso degli anni con la presentazione fuori concorso dei primi episodi della serie The Young Pope (prima e seconda stagione) e, soprattutto, con È stata la mano di Dio che, nel 2021, si meritò il Leone d’argento-Gran Premio della Giuria. Il ritorno in concorso di Paolo Sorrentino avviene con un film destinato a lasciare il segno per la sua grande originalità e forte sintonia con il presente, che il pubblico della Mostra avrà il piacere di scoprire nella serata d’apertura”.

In quest'epoca caratterizzata dalla straordinaria crescita dell'intelligenza artificiale, emerge una profonda dimensione etica che esige la nostra attenzione.
Questo libro rappresenta un'aggiunta significativa e attuale al dibattito in corso che esplora le implicazioni etiche del potere trasformativo dell'intelligenza artificiale in generale e delle nuove e rivoluzionarie tecnologie di intelligenza artificiale, come l'intelligenza artificiale generativa.

Il libro affronta diversi temi:

• Rivoluzione tecnologica digitale e intelligenza artificiale;
• Una panoramica dell'IA e dell'IA generativa;
• Il ruolo dell'intelligenza artificiale e dell'intelligenza artificiale generativa nella disinformazione e nella cattiva informazione;
• Intelligenza artificiale e disinibizione online;
• Come può verificarsi un pregiudizio nell'intelligenza artificiale;
• Intelligenza artificiale e spostamento del lavoro;
• Problemi di privacy dell'IA;
• Regolamentazione e politica dell'intelligenza artificiale.

In a recent discussion it was mentioned that the search function in Lemmy is awkward to use and could be improved. As a result I already made two small changes:
- Change community selector to use !community@example.com format (#3218)
- Search field in community sidebar (#3217)

Are there any other UI or UX changes you can think of to improve searching in Lemmy? Im mainly looking for frontend changes, such as reorganizing the input positions, changing default values etc.

FOIA.

The Justice Department is advancing a radical theory of presidential power, nullifying Congress’s foreign affairs powers whenever the president finds them inconvenient.

These letters provide a legal rationale (if it can be called that) for the Trump administration’s commitment not to enforce the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act (PAFACAA), the divestment-or-ban law that the Supreme Court upheld in January. The letters make two central claims, both of which are astonishing in their breadth and implications for executive power.
