"Hours before the keynote speaker, Abeba Birhane—founder and lead of the TCD AI Accountability Lab (AIAL) and one of Time magazine’s 2023 100 Most Influential People in AI—was set to take the stage, she was asked by organizers to remove some of her slides.

Specifically, the organizers wanted Birhane to “remove anything that mentions ‘Palestine’ ‘Israel’ and replace ‘genocide’ with ‘war crimes‘” and “a slide that explains illegal data torrenting by Meta.”

Anybody having issues getting #Evolution to authenticate with #Mailcow/ #Sogo on the back-end? I'm using #AppPasswords. Was using one password for everything but now I've split things up and am trying an app password for IMAP/ EAS/ Sieve, CalDAV/ CardDAV, and SMTP seperately to see if things are more stable. But I'm getting sick and tired of having to re-authenticate to Mailcow it seems pretty much every single day.

WTF!!! #DHS Tells #Police That Common #Protest Activities Are ‘Violent Tactics’

DHS is urging law enforcement to treat even #skateboarding and #livestreaming as signs of violent intent during a protest, turning everyday behavior into a pretext for police action.

By Dell Cameron, Jul 10, 202

"The #DepartmentOfHomelandSecurity is urging local police to consider a wide range of protest activity as violent tactics, including mundane acts like riding a #bike or livestreaming a police encounter, WIRED has learned.

"WIRED has made this article free for all to read because it is primarily based on reporting from Freedom of Information Act requests [#FOIA]. Please consider subscribing to support our journalism.

"Threat bulletins issued during last month’s '#NoKings' #protests warn that the US government’s aggressive immigration raids are almost certain to accelerate domestic unrest, with DHS saying there’s a 'high likeliness' more Americans will soon turn against the agency, which could trigger #confrontations near federal sites.

"Blaming intense media coverage and backlash to the US military deployment in #LosAngeles, DHS expects the #demonstrations to 'continue and grow across the nation' as #protesters focused on other issues shift to #immigration, following a broad 'embracement of #AntiICE messaging.'

"The bulletins—first obtained by the national security nonprofit #PropertyOfThePeople through public records requests—warn that officers could face assaults with fireworks and improvised weapons: #paint-filled fire extinguishers, smoke grenades, and projectiles like #bottles and #rocks.

"At the same time, the guidance urges officers to consider a range of #nonviolent behavior and common #ProtestGear—like #masks, #flashlights, and #cameras—as potential precursors to violence, telling officers to prepare 'from the point of view of an adversary.'

"Protesters on #bicycles, #skateboards, or even 'on foot' are framed as potential 'scouts' conducting reconnaissance or searching for 'items to be used as weapons.' #Livestreaming is listed alongside '#doxxing' as a 'tactic' for 'threatening' police. Online posters are cast as ideological #recruiters—or as participants in 'surveillance sharing.'

"One list of 'violent tactics' shared by the Los Angeles–based Joint Regional Intelligence Center—part of a post-9/11 fusion network—includes both protesters’ attempts to avoid identification and efforts to identify police. The memo also alleges that face recognition, normally a tool of law enforcement, was used against officers.

"Vera Eidelman, a senior staff attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union [#ACLU], says the government has no business treating #constitutionally protected activities—like #observing or #documenting police—as threats.

"#DHS did not respond to a request for comment."

If I was wealthy I would own several banquet and event rental buildings and rent a little above break even over expenses.

The on-going headache I hear from every non-profit, club, or sporting activity primarily for adults is the lack of rental space for events.

Ironically there are a ton of empty schools, churches, and municipal owned buildings that purposely make it impossible or unaffordable to fill the need of any growing community.

even though there's no direct evidence that trump is compromised by the epstein blackmail scheme, the behavior at this point is making it look a lot more likely. keep in mind the island wasn't the only place that stuff was going on- epstein had a large building in new york so those people wouldn't have appeared on the flight logs. there could be far more compromised individuals (including trump) than just people who flew to the island

before i was skeptical but now i'm really thinking trump is more than just an israel loving zionist. the beahivor is more like someone being blackmailed than just someone with a religious bias or having accepted campaign donations

trump is either directly implicated, or they threatened his family, or he just has no logical consistency in his policy positions and is willing to do 180 degree flips for no reason- but i think generally they're a reason we keep seeing politicians change their tune regarding middle east policy and israel-related matters, after they get in office, which is some combination of bribery, blackmail, and extortion.

I’ve heard him admit some quirks / shortsightedness, but I think he’d repeat some unless the markup could remain natural to writers. The conventions grew from text email and newsgroups, where they were never intended to be read as formatted html.

The other was to make it look as little like “markup” as possible, and therefore, intuitive (the basic emphasis, bullets and headers are easily understood – even if reference links and tables are harder to write/dev than to read).

Some people in #Iran successfully use delta with national email providers when outside Internet is cut.

#deltachat designs are #OfflineFirst using delay tolerant protocols. Messages are queued when a path is blocked. email servers are made for this and run at planetary scale.
Messages crossing the border may arrive three days later but they arrive.

Peoples can stay in private touch across time and space, to the extent possible in current breakdown times. Which is what delta is about.

Playing with Grok 4.

I don’t know exactly what the engineering behind it looks like, but it seems that the primary innovation is to create a “Inner monologue” where a variety of agentic “voices” discuss the question you asked from multiple points of view, figure out what to google, and then summarize those results then verify the answer.

You can see this process working if you hit the “thoughts” button as it happens.

Pretty cool, possibly more than a parlor trick.

Il est intéressant de créer de l'évaporation, c'est le principe du frigo sauf que le frigo crée du froid enfermé pour restituer la chaleur par son… radiateur. En créant des glaçons pour se rafraîchir, on crée de la chaleur dans la pièce, c'est ballot. Alors, supposons qu'on a des voiles devant les fenêtres, ben l'idéal c'est de les mouiller par vaporisation. On n'est d'ailleurs pas obligé de se limiter aux fenêtres, on peut mettre des linges mouillés un peut partout, de préférence au plus près du sol, car la vapeur d'eau froide va se réchauffer pour monter, elle va créer une turbulence, une brise infime mais efficace ; l'air frais va progressivement monter pour refroidir l'air chaud du dessus. On peut même dormir sous un drap humide, on se doute bien que c'est froid. Et c'est froid pourquoi ? Car l'eau s'évapore, comme le gaz dans les parois d'un frigo. Mais dans un frigo, c'est un circuit fermé, le moteur (qui chauffe) va recompresser le gaz en liquide ou le circuit exploserait. L'eau est composée de molécules serrées qui en s'évaporant vont prendre plus de place jusqu'à chasser les molécules d'air chaud, idéalement vers l'extérieur, comme un frigo par son radiateur.
Notre corps aussi est un frigo, en buvant de l'eau, une certaine quantité va s'évaporer par notre peau. Lorsqu'on a trop chaud, il faut s'hydrater.
Pour la circulation d'air, il vaut mieux ouvrir petit face au vent (à l'entrée) et ouvrir en grand à la sortie. Il suffit de tester en soufflant dans sa main : en fermant les lèvres comme pour souffler sur la soupe, la sensation sur la main est froide, tandis que si la bouche est grande ouverte, c'est chaud. Et comme la chaleur monte, il faut faire entrer l'air frais par le bas, de sorte que l'air chaud soit chassé par le haut.
On peut combiner les deux techniques d'évaporation ventilation en ouvrant légèrement la porte d'une cave humide si on ne l'a pas trop isolée, l'air humide va monter et sa vapeur d'eau en expansion va chasser l'air chaud par le haut. Pour une meilleure circulation de l'air, on ne bloquera pas l'entrée d'air par les soupirails et on ouvrira les fenêtres à l'étage. Un peu le principe du puit provençal.
Et il y a moyen de réfléchir encore. Par exemple à mettre derrière les vitres exposées au soleil des couvertures de survie, réfléchissantes. Il y a moyen d'aller très loin dans ce type d'idées. Par exemple un ventilateur crée un courant d'air frais, en irradiant de la chaleur par son moteur. Toute énergie consommée produit de la chaleur : une centrale nucléaire produit de l'électricité et de la chaleur, l'idéal est donc d'oublier l'énergie en été pour n'utiliser que la physique. Bon, pas tout à fait, car l'énergie c'est de la physique. Et il y a de bonnes et de mauvaises idées. Je voyais un meme où quelqu'un dormait devant son frigo ouvert. C'est bien à l'avant, mais à l'arrière du frigo c'est de la chaleur qui est produite. Donc ça ne sert à rien, sauf à augmenter sa facture énergétique et dans l'absolu à augmenter la chaleur globale par consommation énergétique. C'est se tirer une balle dans le pied. Et à l'échelle de la planète, toute énergie fossile ou minérale (comme l'uranium) consommée le sera finalement pour réchauffer l'atmosphère et créer des turbulences insoutenables : vents, pluies, sécheresses.
Ce qui est efficace, c'est la transformation d'un liquide en phase gazeuse, c'est la ventilation et l'isolation, mais en gardant à l'esprit que c'est toujours une question de vases communicants. Rien se crée, tout se transforme. Et c'est une mauvaise idée que d'utiliser un corps solide comme énergie, car elle sera en expansion de manière gazeuse à un moment ou un autre. Un caillou de charbon ou d'uranium consommé va augmenter la chaleur globale selon son potentiel énergétique. Et toujours à augmenter l'effet de serre, en se transformant en gaz divers. C'est absolu.
