Increased Spam on Lemmy Recently


I don't know if it's just me, but it feeks like there's been more spam posts than usual on Lemmy this October. Especially in instances like lemmy.world, lemdro.id, and others.

For example, this week, there has been a 3-day-old account on lemmy.world with over 480 posts. I also refreshed my feed today to find a <1 day old account from lemy.lol just posting Perplexity affiliate links to various places. I've blocked like 10 accounts in the past week alone for this reason.

With affiliate links I kind of understand the motivation. However, for non-promotional spam, upvotes on Lemmy aren't valuable in the same way that it is on Reddit, and there's no real value to an account with a lot of karma.

Is it just me that's noticed this increase? Does anyone know why this might be happening just now?

Sony WF-C510 connected on Linux, but never recognized as a headset


I've been fighting with my Sony WF-C510 for days.

I've tried it on Ubuntu, Debian, and Linux Mint. Same result every time: It connects successfully, but never shows up as an audio output device.

I even bought a USB Bluetooth dongle, thinking my laptop’s chipset was the problem... but nope. It still connects as a device, not a headset.

I’ve restarted Bluetooth services, switched from PulseAudio to PipeWire, and tried every "set-card-profile" trick from AI and forums, but nothing works.

Has anyone actually managed to get a Sony WF-C510 working properly on Linux?

It's clear this is purely Sony's fault for not caring about or supporting Linux drivers. Are they just ignoring the entire platform at this point?

Any workaround or success story would save my sanity.

Distros Tested: Ubuntu 24.04, Debian 12-13, Mint 22
Issue: Connects, but no A2DP/HSP profile visible

Linus Torvalds Gives Nvidia the Finger. Literally.

Linux creator Linus Torvalds isn't happy with Nvidia. And he wants you to know it.

Late last week, at a hacker meetup in Finland, Torvalds laid into Nvidia, calling it "the single worst company" the Linux developer community has ever dealt with, complaining that the chipmaker doesn't do as much as it could to ensure that its hardware plays nicely with his open source operating system. He even turned to the camera filming the event, flipped the company the proverbial bird, and dropped the proverbial F bomb.


Absolute fucking legend!

New York declares state of emergency to help food banks in shutdown


New York’s governor, Kathy Hochul, has declared a state of emergency to raise $65m to help food banks as federal funding for the national food stamps program is set to expire on Saturday due to the government shutdown.

The move comes after Oregon and Virginia also declared emergencies to make funds available to cover the anticipated short fall in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (Snap), which provides food aid to nearly 42 million people.

New York receives nearly $650m a month in federal funding for Snap benefits, according to Department of Agriculture figures.

Oregon governor Tina Kotek on Wednesday pledged $5m to food banks and declared a 60-day food security emergency. Virginia governor Glenn Youngkin has said the state will draw on surplus funds to pay for up to a month of Snap benefits.

The declarations come amid an ongoing standoff between the Trump administration and the Republicans, on one side, and the Democrats, over a federal government funding package. Neither Congress nor the White House has acted to fund November Snap benefits, which cost around $8bn a month.



Mike Waltz cut off in middle of UN speech: ‘It is not a Signal chat’


U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz was interrupted during a speech this week and called out for his involvement in a leaked Signal group chat.

Waltz spoke to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, ahead of a vote on a resolution to condemn the U.S.’s economic restrictions on Cuba. As Waltz defended his nation’s position, Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez interrupted his speech with a “point of order,” and slammed the ambassador’s remarks as “uncivilized, crude and gross.”

He then appeared to call out Waltz’s involvement in a group chat with other Trump administration officials on the messaging app Signal, which was leaked earlier this year.

“Mr. Waltz, this is the United Nations General Assembly,” he said. “It is not a Signal chat. Nor is it the House of Representatives.”



Republican plan would make deanonymization of census data trivial


But now, a little-known algorithmic process called “differential privacy,” created to keep census data from being used to identify individual respondents, has become the right’s latest focus. WIRED spoke to six experts about the GOP’s ongoing effort to falsely allege that a system created to protect people’s privacy has made the data from the 2020 census inaccurate.

If successful, the campaign to get rid of differential privacy could not only radically change the kind of data made available, but could put the data of every person living in the US at risk. The campaign could also discourage immigrants from participating in the census entirely.

The Census Bureau regularly publishes anonymized data so that policymakers and researchers can use it. That data is also sensitive: Conducted every 10 years, the census counts every person living in the United States, citizen and noncitizen alike. The data includes detailed information like the race, sex, and age, as well the languages they speak, their home address, economic status, and the number of people living in a house. This data is used for allocating the federal funds that support public services like schools and hospitals, as well as for how a state’s population is divided up and represented in Congress. The more people in a state, the more congressional representation—and more votes in the Electoral College.

Pritzker forms independent commission to document misconduct of federal agents


After urging Illinoisans last month to record concerning actions by federal agents, Gov. JB Pritzker signed an executive order Thursday creating a commission to review documentation submitted by the public.

“The federal government has chosen to treat the people of this country as an adversary,” Pritzker said of the Trump administration’s “Operation Midway Blitz” targeting the Chicago area. “We will not meet intimidation with fear. We will meet it with truth.”

The newly formed Illinois Accountability Commission has been charged by Pritzker to create a public record of abuses, document the impact of those abuses on families and communities, and recommend actions for justice and reducing future harm.

The commission will investigate past actions by federal officials, according to its chair, U.S. District Judge Rubén Castillo, including the fatal shooting of unarmed father and Mexican immigrant Silverio Villegas González by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer after dropping off his two young sons at school and daycare in the Chicago area.



Missed opportunity for OneShot to come to GOG?


I'd like to play Oneshot but it's not on GOG. I went looking to see if anyone had said why not and I found a post from the Oneshot dev GIR saying he submitted the game to GOG.

I'm curious about what happened. I'd love to see Oneshot come to GOG.

apparently this is a big problem with GOG, they have a very strict and opinionated policy for accepting games on their store.

on one hand, this means GOG doesn't have much shovelware, unlike Steam or itch. this is good. but it also means incredible games get the pass for ridiculous reasons.

iirc they passed on Balatro because it "wasn't what they were looking for on the store right now", and they initially passed on Undertale because the game's graphics made them think it was unpolished... i wonder how many incredible indie games aren't on GOG because of this?

in reply to Chloé 🥕

it also kinda devalues GOG as a preservation platform, imo. even shovelware deserves to get preserved. but GOG being a preservation platform is more marketing than fact tbf

in reply to Chloé 🥕

How do you propose GOG should handle forever support for a nearly endless number of shovelware games? Preservation is more than offering the downloads, the games also need to run on systems people actually have.

As far as I can tell they are fullfilling all their marketing promises by taking charge of updating games when developers stop doing so. I wish they would do that for the Linux versions as well as the windows versions, but it's absolutely better than nothing.

in reply to v0rld

what GOG is doing is great and i commend their efforts (even tho i wish they’d relax their submission policies juuust a bit), and as a store, not having piles of shovelware is great!

but as a preservation platform, GOG’s approach is inherently limited. they can’t have every game, and they can’t keep supporting every game. that’s the fundamental problem with them as far as preservation is concerned.

the only way i can think of where we could have total game preservation is if every game ever made had it’s source code readily available, and all people were taught the programming skills necessary to make the games work on whatever future computers we have. that way, even the most obscure games which don’t have a passionate fanbase can be ported, fixed and played for years to come.

which, obviously, is not something that’s doable, by GOG or by anyone else

in reply to makeitwonderful

If just for the sake of having it DRM free, if/while GOG doesn't pick it, it's on Itchio too



California fights Trump's attempt to steal the midterms


Bisognano notes that even if Prop. 50 passes, Democrats could still end up six to 10 seats behind Republicans in a redistricting arms race, as Missouri and North Carolina already have enacted new gerrymandered maps, following Texas. Other Republican states, including Ohio, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, and Nebraska, could go next. That would make it much harder for Democrats to take back the House.

There are signs, however, that other Democratic states are starting to follow California’s lead. Virginia Democrats convened a special session this week to begin redrawing their map to boost Democratic representation, which would require approval in two sessions of the legislature, this year and early next year, followed by the backing of the voters, much like California. Democratic members of Illinois’ congressional delegation voiced unanimous support for a new congressional map Tuesday.



Justice Department strips Jan. 6 references from court paper and punishes prosecutors who filed it


The Justice Department has stripped references to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack from court papers and punished two federal prosecutors who filed the document seeking prison time at sentencing Thursday for an armed rioter arrested near former President Barack Obama’s home.

The prosecutors from the U.S. attorney’s office in the District of Columbia were locked out of their government devices and told they were being put on leave Wednesday morning shortly after they filed a sentencing memorandum describing the crowd of President Donald Trump supporters who attacked the Capitol as a “mob of rioters,” according to a person familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss personnel issues.

Later Wednesday, the Justice Department replaced the court filing with an updated version that stripped references to the Jan. 6 riot. The new filing also no longer included a reference to the fact that Trump posted on social media what he claimed was Obama’s address on the same day that the defendant, Taylor Taranto, was arrested in the former president’s neighborhood.

OpenAI maps out the chatbot mental health crisis


On Monday, OpenAI released new research on the prevalence of users with potentially serious mental health issues on ChatGPT. In any given week, 0.07 percent of users show signs of psychosis or mania; 0.15 percent of users “indicate potentially heightened levels of emotional attachment to ChatGPT”; and 0.15 percent of users express suicidal intent.

More than 800 million people now use ChatGPT every week. And so while those numbers may look low on a percentage basis, they are disturbingly large in absolute terms. That’s 560,000 people showing signs of psychosis or mania, 1.2 million people developing a potentially unhealthy bond to a chatbot, and 1.2 million people having conversations that indicate plans to harm themselves.

OpenAI is publishing these figures against the backdrop of a larger mental health crisis whose arrival preceded ChatGPT. Nearly a quarter of Americans experience a mental illness each year, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness. A staggering 12.6 percent of Americans aged 18 to 25 had serious thoughts of suicide in 2024, NAMI reports.

The question is to what extent these conditions may be triggered or exacerbated by interactions with chatbots like ChatGPT. Large language models are generally trained to be agreeable and supportive, which can comfort people going through difficult situations. But chatbots can also veer into sycophancy, as ChatGPT did in April, pushing users into strange and harmful spirals of delusion. They can also be talked into giving instructions for suicide, and some vulnerable people have used its advice to end their lives.



International Criminal Court to ditch Microsoft Office for European open source alternative


cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/38271574

The International Criminal Court (ICC) will switch its internal work environment away from Microsoft Office to Open Desk, a European open source alternative, the institution confirmed to Euractiv.

German newspaper Handelsblatt first reported on the plans. The switch comes amid rising concerns about public bodies being reliant on US tech companies to run their services, which have stepped up sharply since the start of US President Donald Trump’s second administration.

For the ICC, such concerns are not abstract: Trump has repeatedly lashed out at the court and slapped sanctions on its chief prosecutor, Karim Khan.

Danish EU Council presidency drops chat control: It's dead for now 🎉

The Danish government will no longer push for chat control!

Here's a machine translation of what the Danish newspaper Berlingske has to say about it.

Fair warning: The journalists in Berlingske don't seem to have the slightest idea what they are talking about, and are enthusiastically gobbling up the Kool-Aid served to them by Danish Minister of Justice Peter Hummelgaard, a man who is on the record claiming that privacy is not a human right (it is). Don't expect to gain any worthwhile neural connections in your brain by reading the below.


Danish proposal on digital child protection dropped after German criticism


Danish EU presidency could not create support for proposals to scan messages for abuse material.

The government will no longer force tech giants to scan citizens' messages for imagery of sexual abuse of children.

The Danish EU Presidency is thus withdrawing its proposal after Germany and later the ruling Moderates have opposed it. This is stated in a written comment.

"This will mean that the injunction will not be part of the EU Presidency's new compromise proposal and that it should continue to be voluntary for tech giants to track down material with child sexual abuse," Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard said.

He sits at the table end in the work to get the CSA regulation adopted under the Danish EU Presidency, which lasts until the New Year.

The regulation was originally proposed by the European Commission in 2022. It will be able to force tech companies to scan the contents of private citizens’ images and videos on encrypted services.

But both Germany and since the Moderates withdrew their support for the proposal because it was too intrusive.

Hummelgaard, however, believes that Denmark's proposal was less intrusive than the EU Commission's original proposal. And he highlights that Save the Children, Unicef, Children's Terms and Digital Responsibility gave their clear backing.

However, the risk of losing an important tool is highly weighted.

"Right now, we are in a situation where we risk completely losing a central tool in the fight against sexual assault against children, because the current scheme that allows for voluntary scanning expires in April 2026," he said.

That's why we have to act no matter what. We owe it to all the children who are subjected to monstrous abuses, says Peter Hummelgaard.

The government's original proposal will break with fundamental freedoms and will potentially result in mass surveillance of citizens in the EU, the critics said. Among other things, they count hundreds of scientists and experts, the Dataetian Council and the tech giants themselves.

Germany has directly called it "mass surveillance" in the past.

"The mass surveillance of private messages must be taboo in a rule of law," the German Ministry of Justice wrote at X.

Save the Children calls the previous volunteer tracing via scanning a "huge success" and is frustrated that there was no backing for a compromise.

"We are deeply concerned and frustrated that there has been no European support for a compromise where tech companies may be required to track down and remove photos and videos with sexual assaults on children," senior adviser at digital child protection Tashi Andersen said in a written commentary.

Dead Rivers and Vanishing Villages: China’s Rush for Serbia’s Minerals


cross-posted from: lemmy.sdf.org/post/44906060

Archived

[...]

In 2018, Serbia chose the Chinese Zijin Mining Group as its strategic partner, and the mining giant took over 63 per cent of RTB [a Serbian mining company that was formerly 100% state-owned].

[...]

Since 2018, Zijin has taken over the Bor [a city in Serbia] mining complex and invested 2.3 billion euros to expand operations. This enlargement is not just industrial – it is reshaping the landscape and the lives of local communities. Entire families are witnessing their homes, land, and memories vanish as the mine swallows settlements. Meanwhile, the Serbian government has offered no real options for resettlement.

[...]

The environmental consequences of the mining rush are also severe: forests, rivers, and wildlife have been devastated, and residents breathe some of the most polluted air in Europe.

[...]

The Borska Reka River is one of the most polluted waterways in Europe. [...] Sediment analysis has shown high concentrations of copper, arsenic, and nickel, exceeding remediation thresholds, particularly near mining areas. As a result, the Borska Reka is considered a “dead river,” devoid of aquatic life, with severe environmental impacts that extend to the Danube via the Timok.

[...]

The fact that Chinese contractors were responsible for renovating the canopy in Novi Sad’s rail station – which later collapsed, killing 16 people and sparking the largest protests in Serbia’s history – only adds to the complexity of China’s presence in Serbia. In [the cities of] Bor and Majdanpek, this engagement is at the same time both significant and invisible. Thousands of workers brought from China live in isolated camps, rarely interacting with the local population.

[...]

Although Chinese presence is barely visible in the city –Chinese workers live in camps inside the mining complexes, which are inaccessible to the local population – several Chinese-operated betting shops have opened in recent years. These venues signage in Chinese and are intended to attract company managers and senior staff, who are allowed to leave the camps, unlike the regular workers from China.

[...]

While [Serbian] president Aleksandar Vučić’s authoritarian government claims lithium extraction would respect strict environmental norms, the experience of local communities in [the cities of] Bor and Majdanpek tells a different story.

[...]

A report published in January 2024 revealed frequent spikes of sulphur dioxide (SO2) in the Bor area, responsible for both acute and chronic respiratory problems as well as acid rain. The study also detected PM10 fine particles containing heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, nickel, and arsenic. Despite the proven adverse effects of mining, no systematic assessment of public health has been carried out since Zijin took over operations. However, the Batut Institute of Public Health has published a study showing an increased mortality risk for both men and women in Bor across all age groups.
