Why Did #Grok Start Talking About ‘White Genocide’?

For a few hours on Wednsday, X’s #GrokAI wouldn’t stop talking about about white genocide. When the X account for a baseball podcast asked Grok about the stats for Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson, it answered the question, then monologued about white farmers being attacked in #SouthAfrica.

strong Lego Belville vibes on the house.
But I am amazed how similar the figures look to the Lego mini-dolls
in reply to mxk

@mxk
They remind me of Polly Pocket Minifigures.
Polly Pocket, Barbie and Mega are all from Mattel.
Polly Pocket was on the market long before Lego friends, so you could say Lego friends are a knock off from the original Mattel Minifigures ;)

Das juristische Tauziehen um den Einwilligungsstandard TCF für Online-Werbung hat vorerst ein Ende. Ob die Entscheidung eines belgischen Gerichts das intransparente Online-Tracking beenden wird, ist trotzdem unklar. Sowohl Datenschützer:innen als auch die Werbeindustrie verbuchen das Urteil als Erfolg.

Vielen Dank an @roofjoke für die verständliche Aufarbeitung dieses komplexen Themas. Aus Nutzenden-/Bürger*innensicht wäre es am erfreulichsten, wenn die drangsalierenden Abfragen und das maßlose Tracking auf so gut wieder jeder Webseite ein Ende hätten. Alternativen gibt es ja, siehe z.B. nicht personalisierte Werbung.

Siehe zum Thema auch:
„Der Verbraucherzentrale Bundesverband (vzbv) fordert, Tracking für Online-Werbung mit einem neuen EU-Gesetz zu verbieten. Das Anlegen von Profilen mithilfe von Tracking führe zu Manipulation, Diskriminierung und Vertrauensverlust von Nutzer:innen. So lautet das Fazit eines neuen Gutachtens der Verbraucherschützer:innen. Bestehende Regelungen würden keinen ausreichenden Schutz bieten, um den Gefahren zu begegnen.“

FPV Drone Takes Off From a Rocketing Start


Picture of self landing drone satellite with orange and black body. Propellors are extended.

Launching rockets into the sky can be a thrill, but why not make the fall just as interesting? That is exactly what [I Build Stuff] thought when attempting to build a self-landing payload. The idea is to release a can sized “satellite” from a rocket at an altitude upwards of 1 km, which will then fly back down to the launch point.

The device itself is a first-person view (FPV) drone running the popular Betaflight firmware. With arms that swing out with some of the smallest brushless motors you’ve ever seen (albeit not the smallest motor), the satellite is surprisingly capable. Unfortunately due to concerns over the legality of an autonomous payload, the drone is human controlled on the descent.

Using collaborated efforts, a successful launch was flown with the satellite making it to the ground unharmed, at least for the most part. While the device did show capabilities of being able to fly back, human error led to a manual recovery. Of course, this is far from the only rocketry hack we have seen here at Hackaday. If you are more into making the flight itself interesting, here is a record breaking one from USC students.

"The new analysis for Carbon Brief shows that China’s emissions were down 1.6% year-on-year in the first quarter of 2025 and by 1% in the latest 12 months.

Electricity supply from new wind, solar and nuclear capacity was enough to cut coal-power output even as demand surged, whereas previous falls were due to weak growth."

in reply to Álvaro Herrera

The image shows a presentation taking place in a conference room. A person is standing to the right, holding a microphone, and appears to be presenting. The background features a large projection screen displaying a slide titled "Project Level Issues." The slide lists four bullet points:

  1. "AIO interacts with some of the least tested areas of postgres."
  2. "Lots of basic assumptions need to be changed."
  3. "Hard to get architectural review / hard to understand architectural issues without working on AIO."
  4. "Postgres not a project doing a lot of in-core iteration."

The Microsoft logo is visible in the bottom right corner of the slide. The room has gray curtains and a podium with a laptop on it. The presenter is wearing a blue shirt and khaki pants. The audience is partially visible, with the back of a person's head in the foreground.

#Meta is making users who opted out of #AI #training opt out again, #watchdog says

According to Noyb, Meta is also requiring users who already opted out of #AItraining in 2024 to opt out again or forever lose their opportunity to keep their data out of Meta's models, as training data likely cannot be easily deleted. That's a seeming violation of the General Data Protection Regulation ( #GDPR ), Noyb alleged.

TL;DR: The once-promising crypto industry, idealized for its independence from political influence, is now deeply entangled in self-dealing and questionable practices. economist.com/leaders/2025/05/… #law #tech #legaltech ⚖️ 🤖 #autosum


Academics like to say “It is possible to design AI in a way that would benefit humanity”.

YES, WE KNOW THAT! I would love for it to be implemented with care, too.

But we all know very well that the way it’s being designed right now is increasingly malign & anti-human.

So stop saing that, and choose the topics you engage with based on where the current direction is leading us toward, please.

Good conversation, nevertheless. Worth your time.
