Estendere i “lavori da 80 centesimi” già svolti dai richiedenti asilo ai percettori del Bürgergeld? È la proposta di un politico della CDU in Turingia. 🇩🇪 #Turingia #RedditoDiCittadinanza #Germania
Il presidente del circondario di Greiz (Turingia), Ulli Schäfer (CDU), ha proposto di estendere l’obbligo dei cosiddetti “lavori da 80 centesimi” anche ai beneficiari del Bürgergeld (il reddito di cit
"A noteworthy part of the plan is to pause the electric vehicle (EV) mandate to meet a demand by the auto industry. The strategy waives the mandate for the 2026 model year and launches a 60-day review of the policy."
"Review" is a euphemism for dismantling it later, I think. I'm not sure how anyone ever expected it to work without a widespread charging network in place. Single fam detached garage charging I suppose, but that seemed unlikely to be sufficient.
I sure wonder what public cloud could possibly satisfy "buy Canadian."
meanwhile in British Columbia "have installed charging stations at 30 locations along provincial highways, adding to the over 5,000 charging stations in the province."
"Starting Aug. 15, 2025, drivers of eligible plug-in hybrid or battery-electric vehicles will no longer need to display an OK decal to use designated HOV lanes"
The Province of B.C. is making it easier for electric-vehicle (EV) drivers to access high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes, reflecting the popularity of electric vehicles in B.C.
“ Forthcoming changes to Canada's clean fuel regulations, Carney said, would also be crafted to help "spur the development of a vibrant biofuels industry in Canada." ”
Canadian agriculture relies heavily on nitrogen fertilizers, there will be little if any less net "carbon release" through agrofuels, until fertilizer production becomes carbon neutral or negative. "Huge amount of energy required to grow crops"
"who's land where and for what" Land Use change can't be ignored. If canola based agrofuel is used, where will Canadians get their vegetable oils for non-fuel? youtu.be/WvYk9gXX2Qk?t=2415

Internxt is a cloud storage service alternative to Google Drive. It’s built for absolute privacy and military-grade security with zero-knowledge file storage.
Le passkey stanno sostituendo le password e sono già supportate da Google, Apple, Microsoft e molti siti. Sono più sicure, resistenti al phishing e facili da usare: si basano su crittografia a chiave pubblica e autenticazione biometrica o PIN. @tecnologia @sicurezza buff.ly/dEVSDNe
@cipper @sicurezza Come spiega l’articolo le passkey, come le password, sono specifiche per ogni provider/OS/app ma funzionano in modo più sicuro ed efficace. La sicurezza dell’autenticazione serve a noi per controllare i nostri dati.
@sicurezza conosco il concetto di passkey, ma onestamente, dipendere da una azienda per l'accesso a svariati servizi internet, anche essenziali, non mi sento affatto più sicuro, ma più ingabbiato.
La sicurezza la ottengo con un password manager serio, tipo keepassxc che non si affida al cloud, e con la 2FA nel caso di servizi critici come qualli bancari.
Inoltre queste aziende sono spesso totalmente inaffidabili in termini di servizi offerti e di privacy.
🚨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».

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...
