ya know... it took me a long time to realize it, in spite of a very wise comrade constantly warning me over and over again... when you're always eager to support community, when you trust others blindly, you will unfortunately sometimes end up hurting the community. the wolf sometimes appears in sheep's clothes. be careful the strangers you embrace with open arms.
a whole lot of you just welcomed an abuser and sociopath into our music community. once a upon a time, i might have made the same mistake.
@buffyleigh i let myself calm down and think about the best way to approach people about the mistake they've unintentionally made. like i said, i've been very prone to making the same mistake myself in the past. in the spirit of community and hospitality you make a leap of faith and give people the benefit of the doubt. but sometimes its not bad to do some research first 😀 perhaps the community needs a dossier for their new friend... 🤔
this was a *big* problem on the underground rave scene in my old region (made worse by the copious amounts of drugs consumed and that the abusers often had access to resources such as drugs, cars/vans and sound equipment so were able to get deep into the scene).
Its got marginally better these days but only because folk have been mostly forced straightedge (also they got older and many have kids so are worried about their safety)
@vfrmedia yeah sadly this is the case with a lot of music scenes. its a reflection of the hegemonic culture. sexism on the macro level reflects on the micro level, even within subcultures who ostensibly refute such things. as an enthusiastic pothead, i would like to think people can get fucked up and not treat others disrespectfully, but sadly that seems to often times not be the case.
my experience was drugs simply amplified both the good and bad aspects of people (in the same way that if you feed poor signals into your amplifier it will sound rough in the loudspeakers), but what saddened me was it seems it was only *after* the cops/govt clamped down on all the drugs use and passed new laws that folk took a look at themselves and realised WTF was happening on the scene (so the prohibitionists won a battle even if the war is pointless)
just 10 years ago we had the centrist neoliberal governments almost turning a blind eye to partydrugs (especially new psychoactive substances) but the "drug-bros" fucked things up by not self-regulating so it all got locked down hard (particularly new DUI laws which can get folks licence suspended 1+ years even if unimpaired but with metabolites in their blood, so anyone who drives now has to go straightedge - but there's still heavy levels of alcohol use on the scene..)
@vfrmedia 1 year suspension is not sctrict by so-called-US standards. DUIs here will bankrupt most people. but either way, its unfortunate it took state intervention to fix the problem (or did it even fix the problem?)
its 1 year for first offence, 3 years for any repeated incident, a fine (proportional to income) and *11 years* higher insurance premiums. Cops also are crafty and pick people off mid week when they may be sleep deprived..
It partly fixed the problem - but has brought folk back to alcohol (you can buy an alcotester which works like a vape in reverse and that shows quite accurately if you are clear to drive - no such harm reduction device yet exists for other substances)
@vfrmedia oh wow. yeah thats a terrible attempt at a solution. monetary fine proportional to income is better than here. here the fine is steep enough to destroy most people but the cost of having fun for the wealthy.
Britain is /far/ more car-dependent than it should be so getting a licence suspended is a big life setback (as are the raised insurance premiums and many insurers who will refuse to quote). So this now confines a lot of partydrugs use to folk in cities with good public transport / walking / cycling (which means there are still OD's and health problems) and others just get a taxi to venues and get boozed up (with accompanying risks of violence and harrassment)
@vfrmedia oh interesting. i would say the same regarding the necessity of owning a vehicle here in the states, but thats funny bc i was under the impression (and i think most americans are) that the UK is more like the rest of the europe e.g. personal vehicle not needed.
you can get away without a car in London, SE England (I did not have one when I lived there), other places in Northern England like Manchester/Leeds/Sheffield and also more populated areas of Scotland, but outside these a car is often required (especially for work, many jobs still require in person attendance and there's more work in fields like construction/maintenance than office jobs these days (lots of those jobs got offshored)

The problem with ML-based translation software, which is basically all translation software at this point, is that some languages are just not very well resourced/documented.
Like, there is no true consensus among the Persian diaspora on how to romanize Farsi, with most just defaulting to ad hoc Finglish.
This basically causes Google Translate to confidentially spit out total nonsense from time to time, based on super limited datasets.
Text-to-speech software like Narakeet struggles also because Persian script has implied vowels that are represented with optional diacritics instead of characters.
It's not dissimilar to Japanese furigana, where you really only show it if you're writing something ambiguous. Otherwise, native speakers usually have enough context to pick up what word you meant anyways.
But most translation software is used by non-native speakers of a language, who have no way to pick apart these inaccuracies.
Like, I'm super grateful for how much translation software has improved in my lifetime, but the little “Hey, our automated outputs might not be 100% totally correct” disclaimers really ought to be more prominent for certain languages.
When I use translation software it's either to double check my extremely bad Spanish, to use simple common words to try to communicate and to get the basic outline of another language text. I do my best to try to work around the shortcomings. Using translation software on Yu-Gi-Oh cards is wildly inaccurate and there isn't even that much to them compared to a lot of other things you'd want to use it for!

Q: I'm two months pregnant now. When will my baby move? A: With any luck, right after he finishes college.
Q: What is the most reliable method to determine a baby's sex? A: Childbirth
Q: My childbirth instructor says it's not pain I'll feel during labor, but pressure. Is she right? A: Yes, in the same way that a tornado might be called an air current.
Q: Do I have to have a baby shower? A: Not if you change the baby's diaper very quickly

It’s obviously not a proxy war when literally thousands of soldiers from #NATO #countries have been #killed inside undisputed Russian territory. The Russians released a report on bodies recovered from the #Kursk incursion; these are #fatalities, not casualties.
In just a few months, NATO lost nearly as many soldiers as the so-called “Coalition of the Willing” did in eight years of invading and occupying Iraq. The USA didn’t lose a proxy war in Ukraine, it lost an actual war; remember, these are just the fatalities from one single Ukrainian offensive.

« En décembre 1934, un tireur isolé assassina Kirov à l’extérieur de son bureau. Même si personne ne put directement accuser Staline, il était quasiment certain que cet assassinat avait son approbation tacite. Dans les années qui suivirent, les amis proches de Staline furent arrêtés les uns après les autres. Ce fut le début de la grande purge au sein du parti ; à la fin des années 1930, des centaines de milliers de personnes perdirent la vie. La quasi-totalité des collaborateurs les plus proches de Staline furent torturés pour leur soutirer des aveux. Après ces séances de torture, Staline écoutait avidement les tortionnaires lui raconter les comportements désespérés de ses amis, si courageux autrefois. Il riait en apprenant comment certains s’agenouillaient en pleurs, suppliant qu’on leur accorde un entretien avec lui pour lui demander pardon de leurs péchés et avoir la vie sauve. Il semblait se délecter de leur humiliation. »

Lorsqu’il vous écoutait, c’était avec une intensité et un intérêt incroyables ; et il vous transperçait du regard, comme s’il percevait vos pensées et vos doutes les plus profonds. Mais sa caractéristique première était de vous faire croire que vous étiez important, que vous apparteniez au petit cercle privilégié des révolutionnaires. »
“It’s not good for Europe to be the permanent security vassal of the United States.” So says JD Vance during a phone conversation with UnHerd on Monday, his first major interview with a European outlet since taking office as Vice President. The backdrop is a week of turmoil on financial markets triggered by President Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs.
The decision to apply (and then partially rescind) hefty tariffs on European allies — combined with a barrage of harsh statements about Europe from Vance, both public ones and leaked private messages — has left many on the Continent wondering whether America can still be thought of as a friend.
Vance’s answer: yes, provided European leaders are prepared to assume a more independent role on the international stage, and to be more responsive to their own voters, especially when it comes to the question of immigration.
“I love Europe,” Vance tells me in a wide-ranging interview from his office in the West Wing, showcasing a diplomatic side that has not always been front and centre. “I love European people. I’ve said repeatedly that I think that you can’t separate American culture from European culture. We’re very much a product of philosophies, theologies, and of course the migration patterns that came out of Europe that launched the United States of America.”
Europe’s leaders are a different matter. Take Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, who, in a recent interview with the American TV programme 60 Minutes, charged Vance with “somehow justifying” Russia’s invasion of his country.
Vance counters this by referring to his condemnations of Moscow’s actions since 2022. But he adds: “I’ve also tried to apply strategic recognition that if you want to end the conflict, you have to try to understand where both the Russians and the Ukrainians see their strategic objectives. That doesn’t mean you morally support the Russian cause, or that you support the full-scale invasion, but you do have to try to understand what are their strategic red lines, in the same way that you have to try to understand what the Ukrainians are trying to get out of the conflict.”
“I think it’s sort of absurd for Zelensky to tell the [American] government, which is currently keeping his entire government and war effort together, that we are somehow on the side of the Russians.” That kind of rhetoric, Vance says, “is certainly not productive”.
Beyond Ukraine, the American Vice President worries that European leaders are still failing to reckon with 21st-century realities on immigration, integration, and security.
“It’s not good for Europe to be the permanent security vassal of the United States.”
Vance says: “We’re very frustrated — ‘we’ meaning me, the President, certainly the entire Trump administration — that European populations keep on crying out for more sensible economic and migration policies, and the leaders of Europe keep on going through these elections, and keep on offering the European peoples the opposite of what they seem to have voted for.”
Immigration is at the heart of Vance’s palpable frustration with European leaders. He argues that, as in the United States, open-borders policies handed down from on high are poisonous to democratic trust. As Vance notes, “the entire democratic project of the West falls apart when the people keep on asking for less migration, and they keep on being rewarded by their leaders with more migration.”
Europe’s other blind spot, Vance says, is security. “The reality is — it’s blunt to say it, but it’s also true — that Europe’s entire security infrastructure, for my entire life, has been subsidised by the United States of America.” As recently as a quarter-century ago, “you could say that Europe had many vibrant militaries, at least militaries that could defend their own homelands”.
Fast-forward to today, Vance says, and “most European nations don’t have militaries that can provide for their reasonable defence”. True, “the British are an obvious exception, the French are an obvious exception, the Poles are an obvious exception. But in some ways, they’re the exceptions that prove the rule, that European leaders have radically underinvested in security, and that has to change.”
Vance’s message to the Continent, he says, is the same one delivered by Charles de Gaulle at the height of the Cold War, when the French president insisted on a healthy dose of independence from Washington. De Gaulle “loved the United States of America, but [he] recognised what I certainly recognise, that it’s not in Europe’s interest, and it’s not in America’s interest, for Europe to be a permanent security vassal of the United States”.
What the Vice President had not made clear before this interview is that he would prefer to see a strong and independent Europe precisely because it could then act as a better check against the foreign-policy missteps of the Americans.
He says: “I don’t think that Europe being more independent is bad for the United States — it’s good for the United States. Just going back through history, I think — frankly — the British and the French were certainly right in their disagreements with Eisenhower about the Suez Canal.”
Vance also alludes to his own experience as a combat veteran of the Iraq War. “Something I know a little bit more personally: I think a lot of European nations were right about our invasion of Iraq. And frankly, if the Europeans had been a little more independent, and a little more willing to stand up, then maybe we could have saved the entire world from the strategic disaster that was the American-led invasion of Iraq.”
Bottom line: “I don’t want the Europeans to just do whatever the Americans tell them to do. I don’t think it’s in their interest, and I don’t think it’s in our interests, either.”
Talking about the UK specifically, Vance puts great emphasis on the place it occupies in the affections of President Trump — with a trade deal highly likely as a result.
“We’re certainly working very hard with Keir Starmer’s government” on a trade deal, Vance says. “The President really loves the United Kingdom. He loved the Queen. He admires and loves the King. It is a very important relationship. And he’s a businessman and has a number of important business relationships in [Britain]. But I think it’s much deeper than that. There’s a real cultural affinity. And of course, fundamentally America is an Anglo country.” Thus, “I think there’s a good chance that, yes, we’ll come to a great agreement that’s in the best interest of both countries”.
Other European states are likely to reach new trade arrangements too, though the climb might be steeper. Already, “with the United Kingdom, we have a much more reciprocal relationship than we have with, say, Germany… While we love the Germans, they are heavily dependent on exporting to the United States but are pretty tough on a lot of American businesses that would like to export into Germany.”
The administration’s lodestar will be “fairness”, Vance says. “I think it will lead to a lot of positive trade relationships with Europe. And again, we very much see Europe as our ally. We just want it to be an alliance where Europeans are a little more independent, and our security and trade relationships are gonna reflect that.”
As financial markets have whipsawed in recent weeks, it has not been clear what success looks like from the administration’s point of view. I ask Vance how he will judge the tariff policy in the long term. “What we want to see is lower trade deficits, really across the board,” says Vance. “Sometimes, a trade deficit makes sense. Like, America doesn’t produce bananas. So obviously, we’re gonna be importing bananas, not exporting bananas. So with certain product categories and maybe even with some countries, a small trading deficit can be justified.”
The status-quo system as a whole, however, is intolerable from the White House’s point of view. “What the global trading system has led to,” complains Vance, “is large and persistent trade deficits across product categories, with the gross majority of countries really using the United States [home market] to absorb their surplus exports. That’s been bad for us. It’s been bad for American manufacturers. It’s been bad for workers. And God forbid, if America ever fought a future war, it would be bad for America’s troops.”
But before he became a politician, Vance was a venture capitalist. Has he had heart-sinking moments watching his own portfolio sink into the red in recent weeks? He sounds unfazed.
“Any implementation of a new system is fundamentally going to make financial markets jittery,” says Vance. “The President has been very consistent that this is a long-term play… Now, of course, you have to be responsive to what the business community is telling you, what workers are telling you, what bond markets are telling you. These are all variables that we have to be responsive to” in order to “make the policy successful”.
But Vance says the administration can’t govern for the stock market alone. “No plan is, you know, going to be implemented perfectly… We’re very cognisant of the fact that we live in a complicated world where nobody else’s decisions are static. But the fundamental policy is to rebalance global trade, and I think the President has been very clear and persistent on that.”
Even as adjustments and delays to tariffs seem to have soothed markets and allies, for now, the Trump administration is bent on applying its brand of shock therapy 2.0 to the international system. The goal, of course, is nearly the diametrical opposite of the original therapy: while shock therapy 1.0 goaded the world to follow America into adopting neoliberal globalisation and to follow Washington on its military adventures, this one is aimed at reversing both outcomes.
Yet it can be no less discomfiting to live through the change — not just in the policy orientation, but how it’s communicated: not least by a very-online Millennial Vice President who revels in online debate. Does he think he tweets too much? Eyebrows were certainly raised in Europe when he took the time to get into a Twitter dispute with podcaster Rory Stewart.
Vance laughs. “There are many blessings to this job. One unquestioned downside is that I very much live in a bubble. I’m surrounded by Secret Service agents. It’s very hard for a random person to walk up to me — in fact, it’s damned-near impossible. I see social media as a useful, albeit imperfect, way to stay in touch with what’s going on in the country at large… I probably spend way less time on Twitter than I did six months ago, and that’s probably good for me.”
All told, the Trump-Vance administration’s commitment to turning the page on globalisation as we knew it runs deeper than allies and adversaries alike might imagine. As Vance says: “We’re not on anybody’s side, we’re on America’s side.”

So why is Microsoft insisting on pushing out a feature it is very clear users just do not want? What is the point of it? It just does not make any sense. Recall makes no sense. It is one of rather many functions that Microsoft wants to force people into using.
Personally I also do not want Copilot on my computer and the idea that there can be a key on my keyboard that I can press that will enable by mistake it is not what I would think most people want.
I believe that there should be a very clear line between what is on your computer and what is in the cloud. Forcing people to log into a Microsoft online account to use their computer is crazy. Having people mistakenly enabling OneDrive is another disaster.
I guess this is all a great opportunity for Linux.

I wrote a medium-length post about my indecisions with the new website I’m building. I’m torn on how much I want to engineer it vs keeping it simple and future proof.
Genuinely interested in other people’s thoughts, if you have a couple minutes to read it.
i say future proof. partly for the reason you mentioned, that any old (or new) browser can deal with html/css. i also think its more democratic in that its resource friendly for slow machines/connections. then again... if the fancy toold you are using are all server side and the visitor just gets markup code, then thats not too big of a deal. but i would hate to be (back) in the pocket of cloudflare or any other corpo for my own website. as it stands, the only thing between me and masses right now is the isp and if anyone has a solution for that i'm all ears 😛 (re: cloudflare, you might want to look into their login-activity surveillance scandal from a couple weeks ago).
@benda @kel had a brilliant suggestion of publishing it as an ebook in order to be future proof. Since I’m already converting markdown to html it wouldn’t be much more difficult to also convert it into markup that can generate an ebook. And that ebook could be an epub, pdf, or html.

I'm talking about diaspora-fr.org/user/edit which displays a broken error 500 page, independent of whether you click on the account entry on the menu on the left, clicking on your name on the top right and then select "Settings" in the drop down list, or just by typing diaspora-fr.org/user/edit into the adress bar.
A question about the page where it works: Does that page offer changing your email address, your password and to request your profile data? Just to be sure we are talking about the same page.
@Wolfgang Strobl Oops, you're right, everything is working, except the account settings (...fr.org/user/edit) where the error 500 still appears 🙁 sorry, that was the link i didn't use).
