Is a Backlash Building Against Smart Glasses That Record? - Slashdot
Remember those Harvard dropouts who built smart glasses for covert facial recognition — and then raised $1 million to develop AI-powered glasses to continuously listen to conversations and display its insights? "People Are REALLY Mad," writes Futuri…yro.slashdot.org
Raccontando la storia di due uomini ossessionati dalle cospirazioni che rapiscono una donna a capo di un'azienda credendo si tratti di un'aliena intenzionata a distruggere l'umanità, “Buognia” diventa una meravigliosa, ma allo stesso tempo agghiacciante, satira sulla società contemporanea, sulla pericolosità delle manie di complottismo, sulle ossessioni degli esseri umani, i loro limiti e su quanto la loro stessa mano stia distruggendo, giorno dopo giorno, il mondo.

China is seeing a surge in foreign tourism due to relaxed border policies, allowing visitors from dozens of countries to stay up to 10 days visa-free.
This has coincided with a spike in social media interest in cutting-edge innovations in major cities, such as palm payment systems, drone-based food deliveries, and autonomous taxis, showcasing China's sci-fi inspired urban landscapes.

Das Bild zeigt eine Straßenszene in einer europäischen Stadt. Im Vordergrund steht ein Straßenschild, das "3. Victor-Braun-Platz" und "Victor Braun (1825 - 1882) Priester. Ordensgründer" besagt. Ein weißes Pferd zieht eine Kutsche mit einem Fahrer entlang der Straße. Im Hintergrund sind zwei Gebäude zu sehen: ein altes, verwittertes Gebäude mit einem Bogenportal und ein neueres, hellgelbes Gebäude mit roten Ziegeldächern. Ein orangefarbener Sportwagen steht am Straßenrand. Die Straße ist gepflastert, und ein Laternenpfahl mit einer Lampe ist sichtbar. Die Szene wirkt ruhig und historisch.

NAN endorsed* Mamdani it's so over.
There was a narrow path, but it involved NAN going for Cuomo... and they can be annoying sometimes so I was a little nervous.
But, now it's consolidation time.
Will Mr. Mamdani hold on to his principles as he becomes the focal point of the 1000s of groups and forces that make up the ungovernable city?
Let's hope so!
Or will he be tempted and threatened into giving up?
It could happen!
*technically not officially but they never do it officially.
A liberal Black church network. The person you are most likely to know from it is Rev. Al Sharpton and Martin Luther King III, but it's a bit more extensive than that.
Many pastors and more liberal activist orgs are members or friendly with NAN.
They are *liberal* not leftist ... and they can be a little stick in the mud some of the time.
I was a part of an effort to twist their arm on LGBTQ issues about a decade ago. The arm should not have needed to be twisted. I think they are mostly over this. You know how liberals are.
During the debate this one guy tried to claim that "old head" was a slur. It was very silly and annoying.
My brother just texted me "got the old heads!"
Old head (老頭) is used in Chinese too with very similar meanings!

Old head sounds like old bean (老豆), that's now the colloquial canto term for dad, and what I call my dad.

As the last post from #citypopfestivaldresden I have some pictures from the #cosplaycontest for you.
It was a fun contest and at the end I could not really decide which #cosplay I liked more seamcreator (Instagram, 2nd Picture) had a really fun performance but the cosplay from pink_lab_cosplay (Instagram, 3rd Picture) looked really good. In the end I decided to vote for pink_lab_cosplay. But it was really close.
Congratulations to seamcreator for winning the contest overall.

Sensitive content
Do you mean like, how many spammers [per time unit] per user of an instance? If so, I don't think I'd have a way to estimate that. Probably only the mods of each instance would know how many reports they get - assuming the spammers do generally get reported after a while, which I think is likely.
I think I'd be safe in estimating that m.s's rate is higher than scicomm.xyz's rate, though, because the mods here go to some trouble to ensure that everyone signing up here is (a) real, (b) here for appropriate reasons. I don't recall seeing a spammer on this instance yet, touch wood (been here since Nov 2022).
From m.s, I actually haven't been tracking how often I see one (and this question kind of makes me want to!) but enough that I've lost count. I do report them, and click the tickybox so that the report goes through to m.s mods. Usually the length of the account timeline is short, like a day, and it's the same post over and over, as non-sequitur replies to various people's posts ("using the reply function to spam" as it used to be called on Twitter). Sometimes I find one that's been at it a few days.
This could be anywhere, but it’s not !
