Bye-bye Microsoft ! Comment les organisations se mettent (enfin) au logiciel libre - INCYBER NEWS


#politique #logiciellibre #sécurité #souveraineté

Un pays tout entier, le Danemark, un länder allemand, des dizaines de communes, comme Lyon, la troisième ville de France… Lentement mais sûrement, les collectivités basculent vers Linux, LibreOffice et autres NextCloud. Le but est économique, mais aussi d’asseoir sa souveraineté numérique et d’en finir avec la dictature des GAFAM.

You know what’s truly depressing and terrifying about this shit? Is the richest men in the world, the genocidal maniacs will dictate that this is great.

We should automate them.. It would be a great thing because what the automation would could not be possibly more demented.

I think we need a groundswell to create

“ Exactly why that's happening is opaque, but a reasonable theory might be that to build GPT-5, OpenAI used other AI models to evaluate large numbers of potential outputs to fine-tune how it handled various types of tasks. As a result, it ended up producing ornate text that makes little sense to a human — but is perfectly calibrated to please another AI model.”

Truly, the big brains in Silicon Valley intend to automate the very worst aspects of humanity.

in reply to GhostOnTheHalfShell

This is what they are going to replace humanity with in order to rule over them.

A dim reflection of themselves.

Every day I listen to a little bit of Tolkien audiobooks. What strikes me about his characterization of dark Lords exactly fits how Silicon Valley billionaires operate.

They corrupt everything they touch.

everything that they do is a perverse mockery of the real thing

in reply to GhostOnTheHalfShell

“ In other words, GPT-5 "has been optimized to produce text that other LLMs will evaluate highly, not text that humans would find coherent." Provocatively, he suggests that AI models now "share a 'secret language' of meaningless but mutually-appreciated literary markers, defend obvious gibberish with impressive-sounding theories, and sometimes even become MORE confident in their delusions when given more compute to think about them."

in reply to GhostOnTheHalfShell

Tell me how this doesn’t sound exactly like Elon Musk or Peter Thiel and their own gibberish output.

They are setting up a world for their own dimwits, love and adore and highly rate the output of their other dimwits.

Somehow, these men are dictating our future

in reply to GhostOnTheHalfShell

🤔
If humanity destroys itself via climate inaction (all signs point to this), then it's quite conceivable these LLMs may survive in some fashion. If they do, its fascinating to consider this might be our legacy for some future version of ourselves to ponder over...or some extraterrestrial race to discover.

@clintruin

How are they going to survive without the global supply chain that is made impossible by extreme weather.

The climate in action is the decision making power of the richest people in the world who profit from burning the world to the ground.

in reply to GhostOnTheHalfShell

I was thinking more about the LLMs ("AI") themselves...not the human beings.

But your point certainly stands.

in reply to Kid Mania

Yes, it’s so easy to lose sight of the fact that the data centers are monstrosities of modern supply chains. You would actually have to have a robotic force capable of designing and building infrastructure, but that infrastructure is still subject to the second law of thermodynamics.. high temperatures make the environment chaotic, and you cannot predict for any length of time what operating conditions will exist.

It is a hot mess, literally

My concept is more of just a bullshit thought experiment examining the irony of these fucking things being our legacy.

Snappen PVV-stemmers niet dat hun partij mensen écht leed aandoet?
trouw.nl/opinie/snappen-pvv-st… | archive.vn/WnJY6
Spoiler: Best wel, het interesseert ze gewoon geen reet.

"Gerekend met de kiesdeler van de laatste verkiezingen komt dat neer op 2,3 miljoen Nederlanders die blijven stemmen op een partij die niets geleverd heeft. Een partij die klimaatbeleid onzin vindt. Een partij die alleen geeft om de veiligheid van vrouwen en lhbtqi-mensen als ze daar moslims of asielzoekers mee kan bashen."

Una curiositat sobre la flotilla que ja navega rumb a Gaza:

Un dels velers que integren l'expedició és el Bribón, la mateixa embarcació que havia estat utilitzada pel Borbó sènior, el campechano, durant molts anys.

En aquest cas, el Bribón serà capitanejat per Jordi Coronas (sí, exacte, Coronas 😆), que és regidor de Barcelona per Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya.

A vegades el destí té aquests girs inesperats.

I first wanted to catch the light filtering through green leaves, when the dead tree appeared in my viewfinder.

I keep the viewfinder set to black and white, so contrasts speak louder than colors. That shift of vision brought the tree into focus. Again and again, I need the viewfinder to remind me: the world in black and white is never the same as the world I see.

And what we see is never the same as reality itself.

First, the cookie banner swoops in like a mall cop with a clipboard: “Can we track every pixel of your soul?” Before you can hit “Accept All,” a newsletter modal barges in — “Wait! Don’t you want exclusive tips?” You close that, and boom, an onboarding overlay takes over the whole screen, walking you through features you didn’t ask for. Oh, and while you’re here, would you like to turn on notifications? And how about upgrading/subscribing? Oh, and don’t forget to turn off that AdBlocker!

By the time you actually see the thing you came for, your will to live is halfway down the drain

It’s not one pop-up or one tutorial that ruins the experience. It’s the stack of them. One after another. Every single session.

We love to talk about performance budgets — how much JavaScript we can ship before things crawl. But we don’t talk enough about attention budgets. Every user arrives with a limited supply of patience. Burn it all in the first 30 seconds, and it doesn’t matter how beautiful your UI is — they’re gone.

What we see today is the Web of desperation.

Startup got thirsty. Funding dried down. Growth became a religion. Every visitor was seen as a potential “conversion opportunity” that had to be squeezed for value immediately. We started celebrating tiny bumps in sign-ups or click-throughs without noticing the bigger, slower damage to long-term retention.

Instead of letting users explore naturally, we began pushing “Invite your team!” prompts on first login, or locking key features behind upgrade walls before users have even had a win.

Don’t ask for a review on day one. Wait until the user has a positive outcome to share.

Don’t run a 15-step onboarding tour before they’ve done anything.

Show tips in context when they’re relevant. If a user says “not now,” actually respect that.

Don’t hit them with the same prompt in the next session like nothing happened.

It’s basically the same principle as good conversation: don’t dominate, and don’t ask for too much too soon.

Use a non-blocking consent toast. Let users start browsing immediately. Make “Reject All” as prominent as “Accept All,” and keep settings one click away.

Prompt upgrade popups only when the user actually needs a Pro feature. If dismissed, give it a long cooldown before showing again.

Don’t ask for notification permissions right away, without the user even knowing what you’re going to notify them about. Ask in context: “Want to get notified when your report is ready?” If they say yes, then show the browser prompt.

This isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s about retention economics. Every unnecessary prompt chips away at trust and habit formation. You can’t build loyalty on a foundation of annoyance.

Push back when a growth metric is chasing short-term wins at the expense of long-term health. Run 90-day tests. Track retention after the first week. Ask: “Will this make people want to come back?”

Dark design patterns and intrusive ads and tracking are pushing users away from websites and towards pre-distilled answers from LLMs.

The sites that will survive? The ones that let users get things done without treating them like walking email addresses.

Respect the attention budget. Delay the asks. Let people breathe.

OK by my calculations if you listened to 1.5M episodes in August you had to play them at 1000x speed

Gheed Kassem, lawyer for Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza, who was kidnapped by Israeli army months ago from the hospital, shared in a Facebook post Dr. Abu Safiya’s message from his jail cell:

"I entered in the name of humanity, and I will leave in the name of humanity. I'm the one who was abducted from inside the hospital. We will remain on our land & continue to provide healthcare services to the people, God willing, even from a tent."
