The silence of people in Poland, Netherlands etc is very loud. Even more concerning is that we aren't prepared for facing violent groups and many people don't see the need for us to be ready to defend ourselves and others from them

Chiosco Da Piero, addio con foto ricordo (e polemica)
Una foto di gruppo per dire addio alle generazioni di lucchesi che si sono fermate al chiosco fuori Porta Santa Maria a prendere il tradizionale frate. Così la famiglia Pepi ha voluto salutare i propri clienti, con una foto ricordo e il tradizionale taglio della torta, che ha chiuso una storia durata per 70 anni.

Cres que vai encher a botella?
🤣
The video features an elderly man wearing a blue t-shirt and blue shorts, standing barefoot on a paved surface next to a small, light blue wooden bench. He is pouring water from a large, transparent plastic container labeled "СОМОГОН" (which translates to "moonshine" in English) into a smaller, clear plastic bottle. The date "28 черв. 2024" (28 June 2024) is displayed at the top of the frames, and the word "Цього" (which translates to "this" in English) is shown at the bottom. The man carefully tilts the large container to pour the water into the smaller bottle, which is placed upside down on the ground. As he pours, some water spills onto the ground, creating a small puddle. The man appears focused on the task, and the video captures the moment of pouring water, with the background remaining consistent throughout the frames.

Amazon blocks AI bots/crawlers from Facebook(Meta), Google, Huawei, Mistral and others, amid commerce battle
Amazon is desperately trying to stop AI companies from training models on its data. They just added six more AI-related crawlers to the blacklist from Facebook(Meta), Google, Huawei, Mistral and others. A month ago we saw that they added Claude, Perplexity and a different Google crawler.Some of those are to prevent access to Amazon at training, others to block features like deep research. The blacklist is in the publicly accessible robots.txt file. Assuming those crawlers are well-behaved, they will now stop accessing Amazon. It is notable that Amazon seems to be the only one actively fighting this - Walmart and eBay have not many any changes.
Amazon is a treasure trove of ecommerce data. I think it is too late to stop AI training - Amazon's data is already in the datasets ChatGPT and others are using. But Amazon is definitely not interested in helping anyone build the future of AI shopping. If that is indeed the future, Amazon wants to build it itself.

Das Bild zeigt eine unterirdische Treppe oder eine Rampe in einem öffentlichen Verkehrsbetrieb, vermutlich in Deutschland, da die Texte auf Deutsch sind. Die Wände sind weiß und mit großen roten Buchstaben beschriftet. Auf der linken Seite steht "ES WIRD IRGEN", auf der rechten "DASS IST", und in der Mitte "NICHT AUFHÖREN, DASS DETWAS ANDERS IST". Diese Texte sind Teil einer Werbekampagne von Lara Naumann, wie auf der rechten Seite angegeben. Die Treppe führt nach unten und ist mit einem Gleitband ausgestattet. Die Beleuchtung ist hell und stammt von Fluoreszenzleuchten. Die gesamte Szene wirkt modern und urban.

Good we need this. We need a rising tide of the religious and faithful to repudiate Christian nationalist and shut down their narrative of a moral pillar or defense of western values whatever the hell they tell themselves.

in reply to Luigi.🇵🇸🇱🇧🇮🇷🇵🇷🇻🇪 • • •The video features a dark silhouette of a person standing in front of a large window on a building, with glowing yellow eyes that stand out against the dimly lit surroundings. The person is leaning against the window frame, looking outside. The building's exterior is modern, with large glass windows and a neutral color palette. The scene is set during twilight, with a darkening sky visible through the window. The person remains stationary throughout the video, maintaining a consistent posture and position. The glowing eyes are the most striking feature, adding a sense of mystery and tension to the scene. The video maintains a static shot, focusing on the person's silhouette and the glowing eyes, creating a suspenseful atmosphere.
