El indisimulado cortejo del PP a Espinosa de los Monteros: ¿Nuevo fichaje a la vista?


El flirteo entre Iván Espinosa de los Monteros y el Partido Popular no es ningún secreto. Ya a mediados de 2024, el exdirigente de Vox y los 'populares' emprendían sus primeros contactos, y por aquel entonces, fuentes de Génova aseguraban que se trataba de acercamientos "informales" y negaron que quisieran ficharle, ya que "solo Feijóo" tiene capacidad para tomar tal decisión. No obstante, el acercamiento entre el político ultraliberal y el PP se ha seguido cercando en diferentes eventos, momentos y espacios en los que ni él ni el partido parecen tener problema en coincidir, conviviendo de pleno sin ninguna máscara. Desde el año pasado, ni Espinosa de los Monteros ni el PP han negado estos acercamientos, y los han calificado de "conversaciones informales y habituales entre cargos de responsabilidad", en palabras de fuentes cercanas a Feijóo. no niegan estos contactos, que los califican de "conversos informales y habituales" entre políticos que "han ocupado cargos de responsabilidad", según defienden fuentes cercanas a Feijóo, siempre matizando que "en ningún caso ha habido vocación de incorporarle". "Quien haya hecho estos contactos los hace por su cuenta y riesgo, a título particular. Como te imaginarás, un ofrecimiento de esta naturaleza tiene que hacerse con expresa autorización y el único que puede decidir el fichaje de alguien de otro partido es Feijóo", relataba un popular, aunque desde la dirección del PP eran entonces conscientes del "atractivo político" de Espinosa de los Monteros. Con este telón de fondo, dos episodios recientes han sacado de nuevo este tema a la palestra: la manifestación de Colón y la presentación del libro de Espinosa de los Monteros. Cargos del PP en la presentación de su libro Dos años después de su salida de Vox, Espinosa de los Monteros ha presentado su libro España tiene solución, en un acto en el que el otrora portavoz ultraderechista evitó cualquier roce o dardo a su antigua formación. El exdiputado optó por trazar, desde su prisma ideológico, una lectura de la situación actual del país y propuso una serie de políticas para ofrecerle respuesta. En este acto estuvieron antiguos compañeros de partido como Rubén Manso, Víctor Sánchez del Real, Juan Luis Steegmann, Alejo Vidal-Quadras, Inés Cañizares, la recientemente salida de Vox Magdalena Nevado, la ex eurodiputada Mazaly Aguilar, figuras provenientes de Ciudadanos como el exsecretario de Organización Fran Hervías o el exdiputado Marcos de Quinto, y de parte del PP, el vicesecretario de Economía, Juan Bravo, y la diputada Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo, que participó incluso en la presentación de la publicación con un discurso. "El único partido que he organizado ha sido de fútbol con mi familia", ironizaba Espinosa de los Monteros sobre la posible fundación de un nuevo partido político. No obstante, se mostró confiado ante las próximas elecciones: "Tenemos muchos motivos para el optimismo". "La izquierda apela a la envidia, al rencor, al odio, al desprecio al adversario. Lo que no es izquierda tiene que empezar a hacer un esfuerzo de dejar eso a un lado, por lo menos...

AI chatbot Grok can’t stop talking about 'white genocide', admits it's by design


Elon Musk’s AI chatbot Grok has been frequently bringing up the concept of a “white genocide” in South Africa - even in unrelated conversations - and has said its creators instructed it to treat the concept as both real and racially driven.

When faced with unrelated questions on issues such as enterprise software and building scaffolding, Grok offered false and misleading answers.

As demonstrated by many on X, Grok has been consistently steering conversations towards the controversial topic of an alleged “white genocide” in South Africa, regardless of the original question, highlighting a growing tendency to shift focus to this narrative tied to Musk’s country of origin.



77 años de #Nakba continua, 77 años de #resistencia también 🇵🇸🇵🇸

Hoy, 15 de mayo, se cumplen 77 años de la #Nakba de 1948

Durante décadas, el régimen #israelí ha perpetuado la #Nakba en curso, basada en tres pilares principales: colonización, desplazamiento y traslado forzosos, y #apartheid.

Hoy, el #genocidio de #Gaza entra en su 19º mes, el régimen israelí ha avanzado brutalmente en su pilar de desplazamiento forzoso: impulsando la limpieza étnica de la Franja de #Gaza, intensificando su campaña de supresión en #Cisjordania (especialmente en los campos de refugiados) e imponiendo una campaña de eliminación total contra la #UNRWA.

Las acciones del régimen #israelí, que han sido facilitadas y financiadas por los Estados coloniales occidentales, han servido para ampliar aún más la brecha de protección a la que se enfrentan las personas #palestinas refugiadas. Sin embargo, ante la negación de sus derechos inalienables y el perpetuo desplazamiento forzoso, el pueblo #palestino se mantiene firme e inquebrantable en su #resistencia al #régimen colonial - #apartheid #israelí.

Russia again showed it’s not serious about ending the war by sending a weak delegation — a sign of disrespect to the world. We expect a strong response from our partners.

We also discussed security guarantees, ceasefire monitoring, demining, Ukraine’s recovery, and strengthening our partnership.”

FOSS = Free & Open Source Software.
How would you make money on FREE software, without going down the horrid ad revenue patch companies today use?
Now, do I believe that source available Software could rise within a licensed/patented monetary model. Yes I do think there is a better chance there.
Interested in feedback on these thoughts 😀
in reply to NotRoyal

@RoyalNotRoyals Oups. 😅
Yes, I indeed thought of OSS, without the F. Regarding ads, I'm definitely very much against it and would strongly avoid it. The lower limit here would be non-intrusive contextual ads (since they work without tracking), but only so much that a project is financially viable and not more. Given our current economical system it might not be possible to always avoid something like that. However any kind of tracking or abuse (selling) of telemetry data is an absolute no-go.
in reply to Natasha Nox 🇺🇦🇵🇸

@RoyalNotRoyals I'm not that much into economics though, so if there's a way to avoid any kind of ads while making a living I'd 100% take it.
in reply to Natasha Nox 🇺🇦🇵🇸

me neither. But I really want open source software to become the standard, and have been thinking of how it could succeed a good bit this year. As even just OSS has the problem of being very easy to copy as the source code is out in the open for anyone to take and sell as repackaged as their own closed source rebranded software...
But I hope stuff like you poll here can get more thinkers and ideas out to improve things for OSS or similar 😊
in reply to Natasha Nox 🇺🇦🇵🇸

Yeah no worries 😊 I like that idea of the limit being no-tracking, even if some ads are needed to make it go around financially for the developers. I'd even like it if developers could even make a good earning on releasing their passion projects to everyone else. Many OSS programs are so well made.

"When ChatGPT was released at the end of 2022, it caused a panic at all levels of education because it made cheating incredibly easy. Students who were asked to write a history paper or literary analysis could have the tool do it in mere seconds. Some schools banned it while others deployed A.I. detection services, despite concerns about their accuracy.

But, oh, how the tables have turned. Now students are complaining on sites like Rate My Professors about their instructors’ overreliance on A.I. and scrutinizing course materials for words ChatGPT tends to overuse, like “crucial” and “delve.” In addition to calling out hypocrisy, they make a financial argument: They are paying, often quite a lot, to be taught by humans, not an algorithm that they, too, could consult for free.

For their part, professors said they used A.I. chatbots as a tool to provide a better education. Instructors interviewed by The New York Times said chatbots saved time, helped them with overwhelming workloads and served as automated teaching assistants.

Their numbers are growing. In a national survey of more than 1,800 higher-education instructors last year, 18 percent described themselves as frequent users of generative A.I. tools; in a repeat survey this year, that percentage nearly doubled, according to Tyton Partners, the consulting group that conducted the research. The A.I. industry wants to help, and to profit: The start-ups OpenAI and Anthropic recently created enterprise versions of their chatbots designed for universities."

#gameoftrees #got

I've released the -portable version of #gameoftrees, 0.112

This is merely tracking got-0.112 and has no -portable changes in it at all.

Usual details, etc., can be found here:

gameoftrees.org/portable.html

@teajaygrey -- if you'd like me to mirror the -portable releases somewhere for you to access, let me know.

in reply to Thomas Adam

Thanks! I can access the -portable releases A OK personally.

The snag is MacPorts' use of GitHub requiring a mirror that GitHub Actions can access when it runs its Continuous Integration checks.

If you can manage something, that would be awesome!

Though I also documented my thoughts here:

trac.macports.org/ticket/72492

AFAIK, MacPorts does has some mirroring infrastructure taking the form of hostnames in the *.distfiles.macports.org subdomains, e.g.

ywg.ca.distfiles.macports.org/…
bos.us.distfiles.macports.org
ykf.ca.distfiles.macports.org/…
etc.

However, I know next to nothing about how those operate?

My best guess is it's semi-automated and populated once a Portfile has been updated?

Basically, from my limited understanding, since MacPorts kind of combines the functionality of /usr/ports and pkg (for lack of a better description) it defaults to seeing if it can find a pre-compiled build of a given MacPort when an install is requested.

So, if it fails to fetch an archive $(portname){$version}.darwin_($version).($architecture).tbz2 from the packages mirrors (e.g. packages.macports.org/) then it will begin to search for the tarball via the *.distfiles.macports.org mirrors and build from source.

I wish I were more of a MacPorts' expert; but I get the impression maybe others might know if there's a way to use the *distfiles.macports.org mirrors for got -portable tarballs? Hopefully at least!

It's a strange "community" for lack of a better description (and I'm pretty strange as a given even if I weren't attempting to be helpful).

in reply to ティージェーグレェ

Heh, maybe it was lost in translation, but the offer a mirror wasn't for you personally, it was to see whether you'll need it for the MacPort. 😀
in reply to Thomas Adam

Ah, yeah, the MacPort will definitely need something. Admittedly, I have attempted (so far, unsuccessfully) to see if there's interest from MacPorts contributors to move away from GitHub.

If you can provide a mirror that would be awesome!

Though, I am still wondering if MacPorts' own distfiles mirrors can maybe be leveraged somehow? I don't anticipate anyone has replied to the Trac issue I opened with such pontifications yet.

in reply to Thomas Adam

As an addendum to snac.bsd.cafe/teajaygrey/p/174… (which maybe you didn't see because now I see it doesn't seem as if you were CCed? Maybe my fault! Whoops!)

It looks as if my hopes that the *distfiles.macports.org mirroring infrastructure might be able to be utilized somehow were for naught based on this response:

lists.macports.org/pipermail/m…

Anyway, there's no rush! I appreciate any efforts you may be able to make to help facilitate things downstream (and you already do a lot and thank you for that too!).

Part of me is even wondering if I might be able to use something like my neocities.org account for mirroring the tarballs, but I liked your suggestion in the Pull Request about signing things too. So do whatever feels right, this doesn't need to be a "right now" kind of stopgap break/fix fire drill. After all, in UTC it's already Friday and you know what seasoned ops sorts say about code pushes on Fridays! ;)

in reply to Thomas Adam

For the time being, another MacPorts' contributor had the clever idea to utilize FreeBSD's mirror:

github.com/macports/macports-p…

in reply to ティージェーグレェ

Why are we going round in circles on this?

I said I'd provide you a mirror.

Here it is:

xteddy.org/mirror/got-portable…

When I release a -portable version, it will appear there.

This process is automated, currently checks once a day, which means even if I'm not the one doing a -portable release, that will always be kept up to date. Although since I am doing -portable releases, this mirror will update as soon as I upload to got-www.

The "problem" in using FreeBSD-ports is you're at the mercy of when the maintainer is going to update that port, which could be a while, depending when they're able to update it, etc.

HTH!

Would you mind letting me know when you’ve made this change to MacPorts, so I can keep an eye on the traffic hitting my server?
in reply to Thomas Adam

I'll definitely keep you in the loop!

I tried making changes locally; but since aeiouaeiouaeiouaeiouaeiouaeiou's 0.112 PR (github.com/macports/macports-p…) was merged, now MacPorts' mirrors have the 0.112 tarball from FreeBSD's mirrors and even when I change the Portfile locally to reflect your mirror, it seems to want to grab the tarball from the pre-populated MacPorts mirrors (I tried to see if there was some way to get MacPorts to ignore that, but if such a thing is possible, it doesn't seem well documented in the port manpage).

I'm guessing it will function OK, but it looks as if I won't be able to actually test it until 0.113 is released and the corresponding tarballs (which will not have yet been cached by MacPorts and their mirrors as it will not yet be updated [presumably! Unless someone submits a Pull Requests and merges it without me noticing, which seems, less likely?]) are available on you mirror.

The privatisation of the water services has been the biggest rip off of taxpayers I think that I have ever seen. Privatisation doesn't bring efficiency, it puts money that ought to have gone into service provision into the pockets of the directors and shareholders. Profits are achieved by holding down workers' pay and cutting necessary investment. It's past time for the water "industry" to be taken back into public ownership. Ditto rail, health and other public goods!
