Synthesizer 😍: Genesis - Abacab
Beim Konzert am Samstag gehörte Anekdote: Phil Collins und Sting hätten in den letzten Jahren mal gemeinsam musiziert, Phil Collins sei stimmlich angeschlagen gewesen und habe daher Sting gefragt, ob jener die nicht ganz unkomplizierten Basslinien einen Ton tiefer spielen könne. Sting habe daraufhin ohne viel Federlesens alles eben einen Ton tiefer gespielt und Phil Collins das mit den Worten „Toll, dass das klappt, bei Genesis hätten wir dafür jetzt zwei Wochen proben müssen" kommentiert.

Warum die Labortheorie prinzipiell nicht rechts ist, auch wenn es herbeigeschrien werden soll
Aktuell läuft in den sogenannten „Sozialen Medien“ eine Diskussion, die ich absolut nicht verstehe. Gut, das passiert in letzter Zeit öfters, aber diese Diskussion ist besonders absurd.…Onkel Michaels kleine Welt
Based on some old photos, took in my parent's village as I remember. This time I tried to draw clouds in new way, using other brushes in #Krita.

“When implementing an AI strategy, #companies have to look at all these aspects to find the best fit for their needs. This is harder than it sounds. A business’s decision on how to #deploy AI is very different to choosing a static #technology stack to be rolled out across an entire organisation in an identical way.
Businesses have yet to understand that a successful #AIStrategy is “no longer a #tech decision made in a tech department about #hardware”, says #MackenzieHowe, co-founder of #Atheni, an AI strategy #consultant. As a result, she says, nearly *three-quarters of #AI rollouts do not give any return on investment*.”

"There is no “cloud,” just someone else's computer—and when the cops come knocking on their door, these hosts need to be willing to stand up for privacy, and know how to do so to the fullest extent under the law. These legal limits are also important for users to know, not only to mitigate risks in their security plan when choosing where to share data, but to understand whether these hosts are going to bat for them. Taking action together, service hosts and users can curb law enforcement getting more data than they’re allowed, protecting not just themselves but targeted populations, present and future.
This is distinct from law enforcement’s methods of collecting public data, such as the information now being collected on student visa applicants. Cops may use social media monitoring tools and sock puppet accounts to collect what you share publicly, or even within “private” communities. Police may also obtain the contents of communication in other ways that do not require court authorization, such as monitoring network traffic passively to catch metadata and possibly using advanced tools to partially reveal encrypted information. They can even outright buy information from online data brokers. Unfortunately there are few restrictions or oversight for these practices—something EFF is fighting to change.
Below however is a general breakdown of the legal processes used by US law enforcement for accessing private data, and what categories of private data these processes can disclose. Because this is a generalized summary, it is neither exhaustive nor should be considered legal advice. Please seek legal help if you have specific data privacy and security needs."

IR Point and Shoot Has a Raspberry Heart in a 35mm Body
Photography is great, but sometimes it can get boring just reusing the same wavelengths over and over again. There are other options, though and when [Malcolm Wilson] decided he wanted to explore them, he decided to build a (near) IR camera. 
Image : Malcom Wilson.
The housing is an old Yashica Electro 35 — apparently this model was prone to electrical issues, and there are a lot of broken camera bodies floating around– which hides a Pi NoIR Camera v3. That camera module, paired with an IR pass filter, makes for infrared photography like the old Yashica used to do with special film. The camera module is plugged into a Pi Zero 2 W, and it’s powered by a PiSugar battery. There’s a tiny (0.91″) OLED display, but it’s only for status messages. The viewfinder is 100% optical, as the designers of this camera intended. Point, shoot, shoot again.
There’s something pure in that experience; we sometimes find stopping to look at previews pulls one out of the creative zone of actually taking pictures. This camera won’t let you do that, though of course you do get to skip on developing photos. [Malcom] has the Pi set up to connect to his Wifi when he gets home, and he grabs the RAW (he is a photographer, after all) image files via SSH. Follow the link above to [Malcom]’s substack, and you’ll get some design details and his python code.
The Raspberry Pi Foundation’s NoIR camera shows up on these pages from time to time, though rarely so artistically. We’re more likely to see it spying on reptiles, or make magic wands work. So we are quite grateful to [Malcom] for the tip, via Petapixel. Yes, photographers and artists of all stripes are welcome to use the tips line to tell us about their work.

nuovo testo nel comparto “post-poetica” del sito ‘ahida’: “oil, gas & tapes_ (core sampling)”, di antonio syxty
ahidaonline.com/post/post-poet…
*
Il testo di Antonio Syxty, che tiene insieme (e prende spunto dal)la complessità e le vicende di quarant’anni di storia, si confronta con le radici del contemporaneo peggiore: petrolio, denaro, mezzi militari, distruzione e – in sostanza – morte altrui. E, questo, non senza mescolare il male con frammenti, più o meno apparentemente irrelati, di pseudovita e banalità (un discorso funebre, un museo delle auto, un diario personale, una sorta di canovaccio sospeso tra soggetto e sceneggiatura, con varie schegge di azioni). Le pagine funzionano così come un rapido costante cambio di canale – o affaccendarsi di interferenze – su una sequenza di ‘frame’ tratti da quel ben noto film horror che l’occidente è.

This is frightning, google giving law enforcement a list of users who did a particular keyword search.
I am glad it helped solve the murder case but it also implies that my search history when using google services will always be stored and can be shared without my permission.
Given that its almost impossible to not use google unless you want to be frustrated while trying to do basic stuff like email, searches etc. This basically mean every bit of data generated my anyone is permanently stored and its just about time until it will be searched for any useful stuff in case there is a situation like this again which there always will be.
Consider the people who were killed here also.
The first fire truck arrived at 2:47 am. By then, the inferno had shattered the windows and plumed the air with smoke. The stench of burning wood filled the neighborhood. When firefighters subdued the blaze enough to get in the front door, they found the small body of a child. Djiby’s daughter Khadija had been two months shy of her second birthday. Farther in sprawled Djiby himself and his 23-year-old wife, Adja.Next to Adja lay Djiby’s 25-year-old sister, Hassan. She’d only been living in the house for three months. Like Adja, she had dreamed of going back to school to study nursing. She died with her arms still wrapped around her 7-month-old daughter, Hawa Beye. Medical examiners would later conclude that all five died of smoke inhalation, airways coated in black soot, internal organs and muscles burnished “cherry-red” from the heat.
