India, istinto suicida dell’Occidente

The stats on crime show it's down and decreasing, but the media is effectively telling us it's bad and maybe getting worse. Because Fox News is popular and wants to push that message, getting people scared is good for the algos and coverage of crime gives local news something to report. Dems arguing for the facts thus comes off as lying or being out of touch.
Good civics and honest politics can't win if the media has bad incentives. That must be fixed also, if not first.

This is not a defense of some of the worst things about Dubai, Singapore (exploitation of migrant workers etc), but Momtaza Mehri articulates something I agree with:
Many in the ‘west’ do not believe that other places have more than ‘one story’, but allow or demand nuance for themselves. I was especially annoyed when someone here was like ‘Dubai chocolate sucks, Dubai sucks’. All of those things can suck (like when you get a bad Dubai chocolate and say all of it is bad; and Dubai does suck) but then that person doubled down and say they couldn’t support anything with that name, everyone who lives there sucks.
Many of my friends who live there fled from wars that you started, denied visas by your countries.

The image displays a server status check page for the website "aur.archlinux.org." The page is divided into two main sections. On the left, there is a placeholder image with a camera icon and the text "No screenshot available." On the right, there is a detailed status report. The report includes the following information: "Website Name: Aur," "URL Checked: aur.archlinux.org," "Response Time: no response," and "Down For: ~46 mins." The status is prominently displayed in red text as "DOWN," with a message stating "Aur.archlinux.org is DOWN for everyone. It is not just you. The server is not responding..." Below this message, there is a "Report an Issue" button. The overall layout is clean and straightforward, with a blue header and white background.

The headline here is that
(1) the increasingly authoritarian US government demanded that Google suppress videos serving the public interest because those videos are embarrassing to government officials, and
(2) Google readily over-complied with that request, deleting not just the videos but the entire channel.

“maybe he should just use Linux”
Spelling out the point of the snark there: the the post is not about what platform he’s using; it’s about the behavior of the US government and Google.
@cockneylaurie
I mean…we should not be surprised, but we should still be outraged. It’s important not to skip that crucial step; assuming outrage and immediately moving past it is how complacency and acceptance set in.
And yes, there are ample alternate hosting options for the Streisand Effect to kick in. But we have to be sure to give Google and the Trump admin that black eye, every time.
Genuine question from my pragmatic autistic point of view: and how that will change anything to give them the black eye?
Saying that, I’m going to look online for a way to contact the author of the video and to mention him the existence of Peertube that he has probably no idea about.
“Give them the black eye” means “discuss this with in our various social circles and express outrage so as to damage their reputation and keep attention on it.” It is easy to underestimate just how real and how impactful that kind of social shift can be.

Can newsrooms become social platforms themselves? Should they?

This is a great post on the good news, bad news dynamic of the AI boom.
The good news is demand is exploding. Nvidia can’t make GPUs fast enough nor can Microsoft & Google bring data centers online fast enough to meet demand.
The bad news is demand is exploding. New features like Deep Research or Agehts use 10x - 100x the resources of vanilla chatbot queries from a year ago. AI companies simply can’t raise prices high enough to match usage. $200/month it isn’t enough.

Ok, oggi ho iniziato a settare #orgmode in #emacs . Prima reazione : maremma che caos. Dopo tre o quattro tutorial invece ora penso: sarà anche un po’ rognoso da settare , ma è una figata ! son solo agli inizi ma…. Trovo sia decisamente meglio di logseq e obsidian sommati insieme, se vinci la diffidenza. E c’è anche #roam-mode e sia benedetto il cielo evil mode (shortcuts di vim , che faccio fatica a tenere a mente sia quelli di eMacs che quello di vin!)
#linux #opensource #emacs
Comunque, se mai deciderai di usare Emacs "seriamente" ti consiglio lo stesso di limitare pacchetti e configurazioni solo per quello a cui proprio non puoi fare a meno... all'inizio anche io mi affidavo a "preset" scritti da altri, tipo copiando init.el da blog vari, e con il senno di poi questa cosa mi ha fatto più male che bene. Ho veramente iniziato a usare il potenziale del programma quando ho abbandonato tutto e sono ripartito da zero.

The wrecker may be planning to send soldiers into US cities on election day in 2026, to ensure that his urban supporters find it hard to vote. This would go with his order for states to eliminate voting by mail. Eliminating that would make it harder for many marginailzed citizens to vote.

in reply to Luigi.🇵🇸🇱🇧🇮🇷🇵🇷🇻🇪 • • •The video captures a scene at a water park where a person in a bright neon green shirt and red shorts is assisting two individuals seated in a yellow inflatable tube at the entrance of a large, purple water slide with a green interior. The slide is designed with a circular tunnel at the end, and the surrounding area is wet, indicating the presence of water. The person in the neon shirt is seen pushing the tube towards the tunnel entrance, ensuring the individuals are properly positioned. As the tube enters the tunnel, the person in the neon shirt follows closely behind, guiding the tube through the tunnel. The video concludes with the tube and its occupants disappearing into the tunnel, with water splashing around the entrance. The background includes a rocky structure and lush greenery, suggesting an outdoor setting. The video captures the excitement and fun of the water slide experience, with the bright colors and dynamic movement adding to the lively atmosphere.
