🚨AI propaganda factories🏭 are now operational. My study shows how small, open-weight models can run as fully automatic generators in influence campaigns. mechanising personas, engagement, cadence. Possible for State, non-state, and micro-actors, including and bedroom ones. This is a wake-up call. This has implications for AI Safety. Alignment in frontier, closed-source models won't save you. 💥 Next generation information warfare.
AI-powered influence operations can now be executed end-to-end on commodity hardware. We show that small language models produce coherent, persona-driven political messaging and can be evaluated automatically without human raters.

(...) la giurista italiana non può recarsi nel suo ufficio presso la sede dell’ONU a New York per relazionare con chi le ha conferito l’incarico. Non solo: non può avere un conto in banca, né negli Stati Uniti né in Italia. Il suo attuale conto italiano è stato congelato e, quando ha cercato di aprirne uno nuovo presso Banca Etica, l’istituto ha dovuto rifiutare la richiesta. Altrimenti», ha spiegato Nazzareno Gabrielli, con grande rammarico, «la banca rischierebbe sanzioni secondarie e una salatissima multa; inoltre verrebbe bloccato ogni scambio in dollari, impedendo così le sue transazioni internazionali».

#Losapevateche APE100 era una famiglia di supercomputer sviluppati dall’INFN (1989-1994) per lo studio delle particelle. Evoluzione di APE (1984), fu progettato a Roma e Pisa sotto la direzione di Nicola Cabibbo.
Nel 1991 divenne il più potente al mondo(!): 2048 CPU, 100 GigaFLOPS.
Il linguaggio “ZZ” divenne “TAO” e poi OpenZz. Una versione fu commercializzata come Quadrics. Successivi: APEmille e APEnext.

Keeping with the documentary theme, I'm watching the 2020 sequel to the excellent 2003 film The Corporation. Entitled The New Corporation: The Unfortunately Necessary Sequel, it explores the "corporation social responsibility" gambit and the normalisation of disaster capitalism.
If you can afford to pay to see it, please help the filmmakers fund future work. If you can't, magnet links for downloading it with BitTorrent can be found here;
If you haven't seen the 2003 original, made in the wake of the Enron and WorldCom scandals and only 5 years before the corpogenic Global Financial Crisis, get thee to the archives;
The Corporation is a 2003 Canadian documentary film critical of the modern-day corporation, considering it as a class of person and evaluating its behaviour...

E non servirebbero tecnologie futuristiche: per identificare un esopianeta come la Terra basterebbero dimensioni e strumenti uguali a quelli di James Webb

Alfa: Honestly the idea of being an Affini seems remarkably comfy to me. I think they go too far with the noncon, that should just be for particularly subby pets and when pets risk hurting themselves, and the restrictions on swearing seem mostly silly, but overall that seems like a way that I might enjoy being
It seems a bit like it's being written by subs who want to have the Affini restrict something that they do regularly so they can feel the restriction a bit more. I also think this is why the Affini always do such a bad job of trying to build trust with rebels they capture. I feel like sprouts probably shouldn't swear, but that can probably be stopped simply by giving them a healthy environment, and it's fine if adults want to swear
yeah, it feels like it's being written by, to our perspective, subs who see submitting as....... we don't know, a lot of it is quite.... unsubtle? there are better, more subtle, less overtly ...... something... ways of doing that. getting an entity to do what you want and making them think it was their idea, type of thing
Like, the following phrases, when coupled with the corresponding action, would pretty easily get Nova to submit: "Sit on my lap and I'll brush your hair" "If you're having trouble deciding I can just decide for you" "If you get scared I can hold you" And, like, why use more force than necessary? If someone wants to be overpowered, then sure, overpower them, but, like, it's completely unnecessary for making someone who's already subby get into subspace.
The one thing I do kinda want to try forcing Nova into is age regression, but that's not going to be physical force, just treating her like a child while using her name often enough that we don't just switch to Sierra
Queen of our hearts, cradled in quiet earth - Milang remembers.
Milang Cemetery, Milang, South Australia.
Milang Cemetery was established in the late 19th century, during Milang’s growth as a river port and agricultural hub.
The cemetery reflects Milang’s quiet resilience and community spirit. Weathered headstones and modest plots speak to a history of working-class dignity, maritime ties, and rural heritage.

@bambulabglobal REALLY needs to add the ability to "auto-refill" from the AMS with different colors. It'd make it more efficient to use up spools with the same TYPE of filament, but different colors. Sometimes I just don't care.

I wrote up a blog post on behalf of my record label about the importance of #BandcampFriday. It also has easy links to all of our music with brief descriptions. There’s something for everyone. Please check it out and share (and/or buy some music…actually it’s Pay What You Want so you can download for free tbh): approachingutopia.com/news/ban…
What if buying music could really help your favorite artists? Bandcamp Friday is the day when Bandcamp gives all sales money straight to the artists, withou ...
Sometimes people are like well what hot sauces do you all have in Singapore / Malaysia / Indonesia then? Well I don’t remember really buying them in jars or at a shop.. usually it was something someone made. Hot sauce in a jar, in a shop, is a new to me experience (this is changing, but even up until very recently only the very consumer manufactured and terrible brands had those things. Or maybe one or two shops famous for their hot sauce)
It was ‘I like the sambal / chilli made by this uncle at that shop with that secret ingredient’
I think it's quite disappointing that this article doesn't touch on how transmasc-targeted misogyny (transandrophobia/transmisandry) is often very overt, and very outwardly offensive, unlike the ideas that some folks have that transmasc oppression is somehow more "tame" than other forms of hatred towards trans folk.
It's saddening really, how I never see the whole "confused girls" thing talked about outside of very very small, very specific circles of transmasc online activism that's solely ever engaged with by other transmasculine people.
Or how the slurs specific to trans men aren't even that well known, so folks don't even know those exist & that it's not just trans women who have hyperspecific insults catered to them.
How the transmasc-focused transphobia is often phrased as though it is about cis women, & how unfortunately, folks take that at face value & don't acknowledge it's about trans men. Or worse, will say that, when pointed out that it is transmisandry, that "men just have to make everything about them." Completely neverminding that the intended purpose of the transphobic statement was to target trans men by calling them women.
Or the dreaded "but radfems love trans men!" argument. If your idea of love is "recruiting them into a cult to coercively detransition them, potentially leading to their suicide, & teaching them to hate themselves" then I'm sorry, but your idea of love is wrong.
It majorly hurts me that even within trans spaces— & recently, even on the fucking fediverse— transmasculine people cannot escape the rhetoric that their suffering is less than, that it's "less severe", that it's "easier to be a trans man", when none of that is true. It's not easy to be ANY type of trans person. & I feel if we all listened to each other more, we'd know when we hear things like that said that it is blatantly 110% false.
It's weird that we're at a place that some people think it's controversial that it should not be normal or acceptable to tell people they should go punch specific individuals or demographics that try to use a public restroom. Like, I am an abolitionist, but if you're gonna have cops, maybe the one of the things they should do is stop people from inciting violence against specific people or groups?
Like...I bet you wouldn't have folks saying it raises important questions of free speech if a trans person were to say you should punch any transphobe that uses a public restroom. When like....transphobes have a much higher rate of doing violence in a bathroom.

There's still a MySpace link in the video description, that's how old it is.
MySpace was founded closer to the release of the original 'Donkey Kong' video game than to today. This game, by Nintendo, also marked the debut of Mario.
Whatever the merits, this is akin to obsessing that the windshield washer tank is low-- when the engine is exploding and on fire due to no coolant and no oil.
Amazingly numb to current events. BAU to the death.
