Mark Zuckerberg baut neuen #Überwachungsstaat
#Metas KI-Brillen, die eine Kamera, ein Mikrofon, eine KI-Schnittstelle und einen Internetzugang umfassen, alles diskret in den Brillen eingebettet.
Bald werden Millionen Menschen mit ihnen herumlaufen, ein Science-Fiction-Alptraum der #Massenüberwachung und Überschreitung der Persönlichkeitsrechte. Sie sind in der Lage, Gesichter zu erkennen, Sprache zu interpretieren, Informationen in Echtzeit zu überlagern und riesige Datenmengen zu sammeln, während ihre Besitzer einfach die Straße entlang gehen.

Differentiating Emigration from Return Migration of Scholars Using Name-Based Nationality Detection Models
Most web and digital trace data do not include information about an individual's nationality due to privacy concerns. The lack of data on nationality can create challenges for migration research.arXiv.org
The ants are on a mission. I know a lot of people complain about the mutualism between ants and peonies, but I love watching them do their thing. While the colors of the peonies are so pretty, something about the black and white just enhances that texture

They've never previously published the sources for Developer Preview and Beta releases.
The changes are only being made to the AOSP main branch which was never the main place Android development was done. They did most development in an internal main branch previously too. Only certain sub-projects were developed in AOSP main and none of those were the most relevant ones for porting to new major releases.

in reply to Frankie ✅ • • •The image is a meme featuring two screenshots from the TV show "The Office." The top panel shows a woman with short, light brown hair, wearing a black and white checkered blazer, holding a black telephone to her ear. Her expression is one of surprise, with her mouth open and eyes wide. The text above the image reads, "Me, during mid-game break, calling my wife to tell her how many times my 3rd lvl Wizard had been dropped to 0 HP so far." Below her image, the text reads, "Nine times?"
The bottom panel shows a man with short brown hair, wearing a light blue suit, also holding a black telephone to his ear. His expression is one of exaggerated surprise, with his mouth open and eyes wide. The text below his image reads, "Nine times."
The meme humorously depicts a scenario where the speaker is excitedly sharing a gaming experience with their spouse, only to be met with a nonchalant response.
