Google's AI Overviews are often so confidently wrong that I’ve lost all trust in them
techradar.com/computing/artifi…

The tech industry bends over backwards to apologize for AI's absolutely massive failings. You simply can't trust AI. It is a super dodgy liar with that sickly tech bro positive toxicity fake it till you make it way. In essence, AI is what the tech industry sees when it looks in the mirror. A bunch of super confident scammers and grifters.

One: A TV has apparently been brought into the Highlander office to monitor something special. Already that month, LBJ had announced that he wouldn't run for another term, and MLK Jr. had been assassinated. Everyone was wondering what the hell would happen next.






“Japanese Zen”

The Albert Khan Garden in Boulogne-Billancourt, near Paris, is in fact made up of several thematic gardens, including a splendid Japanese garden, which invites you to meditate and rest, when it is not crowded during the many busy periods.

#Brexit is costing the UK 4% of GDP per year, #OBR has calculated. This is a disaster. For the sake of the British people we must reverse this self inflicted wound or the UK will wither.

West Losing Propaganda War.

How #US \ #NATO in the era of neoliberalism, sold war as a consumer product.
From the bombing of #Yugoslavia and the invasion of #Iraq, to ​​#Syria and the heroization of the Nazis of #Kiev, Western society swallows without judgment every lie that the corrupt media peddles to it.
Their narrative is full of cracks, and the elites know it. And they are scared. Scared of the change that will come once they can't control the truth anymore.

Animated Widgets On Apple Devices via a Neat Backdoor


If you’ve ever looked at widgets on your iPhone, you’ve probably noticed they’re largely static, save for a few first-party apps. By and large, third party developers are not supposed to be able to animate them. However, [Bryce Bostwick] found a workaround.

You might be confused as to the idea of animated widgets, but it’s quite simple. For example, think of a clock app with a widget in which the hands always display the current time, or a calendar app with an icon that shows the current date. Apple’s own apps have long been able to do this, but the functionality has mostly been locked out for third parties.

One way to get around this limitation is by using a timer feature baked into the widget functionality. The timer tool is one of the few ways that third-party apps are allowed to do animation. By running a timer with a custom font, you can display various graphical elements instead of numbers counting down to create a hacky animation that updates every second.

However, there are even more advanced techniques that can get you faster, smoother animations. [Bryce] breaks down the private techniques used to rotate the clock hands on Apple’s own widget, and how to use those tools for your own purposes. It takes some sneaky Xcode tricks and a bit of math to make it fully flexible for doing arbitrary animations, but it works surprisingly well.

Will this backdoor last ? Well, Apple is always updating and changing iOS and its associated software, so don’t expect it to work forever.

"I was watching a movie the other week and this guy really looked like Lin-Manuel Miranda (creator of the musical Hamilton), so I Googled whether he had any brothers. The AI overview informed me that "Yes, Lin-Manuel Miranda has two younger brothers named Sebastián and Francisco." For a few minutes I thought I was a genius at recognising people… until a little bit of further research showed that Sebastián and Francisco are actually Miranda’s two children."

First of all, everybody should had ditched google as search engine too long ago, yet, despite the clamorous evidence that google had abandon search engineering in favor of ad serving it is still the main search option for a vast mayority, and part of the problem with AI is that you can't fight it without fighting all those tech giants, and part of that battle is to stop using their services.
