I am so fucking sick and tired of people claiming that Cory Doctorow invented the term "enshittification". Sure, he popularized it because he's famous and shit, but my colleagues and I had been using "enshittification" since 2010 starting with Oracle buying Sun Microsystems. LONG before Cory Doctorow even knew what that word meant.

And you know what? I'm not claiming that we invented the word either!

Because we heard it from a vendor.

Who probably heard it from one of their customers.

So stop claiming that Cory Doctorow invented the word.
HE DIDN'T.

Anyway, so far I have successfully gotten this binary classifier to say that one random image I have is -1.438 of whatever it is the classifier is evaluating. Which is nothing, because I had to replace the neural net's classifier head and so while most of the network has some pre-training, the final output layer is "take all the knowledge distilled from the image, and return a random guess".

Next step, let's see if I can figure out how to implement a training loop...

NES mapper programming sounds like shitposts or elaborate pranks.
For example, MMC1. Super common chip, used on Metroid, Legend of Zelda, Bionic Commando.

To program it, you simply write five bytes to the upper half of the memory space. The LSB of each byte is added to a shift register and then for the 5th byte the 13th and 14th bit of the address are used to determine which register to program.

You're right in general, but there are so many cases where the safest advice is "seek a qualified professional", and I generally assume that if someone is asking online then this is already not a realistic option for them.

So yeah, if he took your advice to heart and hired a professional, that would be better. But if he said "damn internet people are so unhelpful, I think I'll just wire it up and see what happens", then my advice is better than that.

A friend of mine does flowers for weddings and he was going to pick up flowers but couldn’t get through because a massive assault on people working in the flower growers in #Carpenteria. This is a video he took from there. They rolled up in unmarked vehicles as well as military assault vehicles armed with assault rifles and just grab anyone and everyone who looks like a Mexican, US citizen or not. They cuff them and haul them away. They never show identification or arrest warrants, they just swarm someone, throw them down, hogtie them and haul em off

We are looking for an investor who can loan our holding company 237,000 US dollars.

With this money, we will open a farm in Baku, Azerbaijan to produce animal-based food.

We will also make our own animal feed, so our products will be healthier, better quality, and cheaper.

Because we sell quality products for less and have strong advertising, we will sell more worldwide and make big profits.

Why Azerbaijan? Because animal farming makes a lot of money there, but few people do it. That’s why we will earn more by starting in Azerbaijan.

Additionally, by producing our own animal feed, we will be able to sell healthier, higher quality animal products at a lower price.

Since we can sell quality products cheaply and thanks to our strong advertising network, we will be able to sell more internationally and make huge profits.

The reason for establishing the business in Azerbaijan is that animal husbandry is a very profitable business in Azerbaijan, but since there are very few people doing animal husbandry, establishing the farm in Azerbaijan will provide us with more income.

Your profit:

You will lend 237,000 US dollars to our holding company and when 22.03.2026 comes, you will receive your money back as 953,000 US dollars.

Your earnings will be great. When 22.03.2026 comes, you will get your money back as 953.00 US dollars.

You will lend 237,000 US dollars to our holding company and when 22.03.2026 comes, you will receive your money back as 953,000 US dollars.

When 22.03.2026 comes, I will give you back your money in the amount of 953,000 US dollars.

That means you will earn 716,000 US dollars profit in just 9 months.

If you like this project and want to loan us money, message me on WhatsApp or Telegram for more details.

The problem is that the gravy train has been stopped. All they did was complain about how wrong we are, while sucking down our money. They want to be right at the cost of losing everything. We are not going there. Their system of gov't is failure. It's why they needed us in the first place. They want to be right at the cost of losing everything. A lot of these violent activists here are not even American.

I'm very confident in the design and implementation of Sentinel 65X. But I also recognize that it would face an uphill climb to compete against the Commander X16, to say nothing of the Spectrum Next and the actual new Commodore 64.

Yeah, I'm a little bummed by that fact, but I can honestly say I delivered a working design, and maybe some folks will really like it. I'm certainly not going to stop making it just because someone else came in.

Israeli forces carried out another massacre at an aid center in southern Gaza run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. Witnesses described Israeli tanks shooting toward the crowds with machine guns and soldiers sniping aid-seekers in the head.

10 Temmuz 1934: Şair, oyun yazarı, devrimci anarşist Erich Mühsam, tutsak edildiği Nazi toplama kampında işkence sonucu katletildi.

1933’te “Van der Lubble” ateşe verildikten bir kaç saat sonra Mühsam tutuklandı ve hayatının son 17 ayını Sonnenburg, Brandenburg ve Oranienburg’daki toplama kamplarında geçirdi. Dişleri dipçik darbeleriyle kırıldı, kafatası kızgın demir ve gamalı haçla dağlandı.

İdamı ile alay etmek için kendi mezarını kazmaya zorlandı, bedeni çürükler ve yaralarla kaplıydı. İşkencecileri nazi şarkısı söylemesi için onu zorlamaya çalıştı. Bütün bu saldırılara karşı cesurca direndi ve enternasyonel marşını söyledi.

Bütün işkencelere rağmen Erich son ana kadar uzlaşmadan direnişini sürdürdü. İşkence gördüğü gecelerden birinde katledildi.

Erich Mühsam, 1916 yılının Nisan ayında, I. Dünya Savaşı sürerken yazdığı “Ağıt” adlı şiiri;

Ağıt (Nisan 1916) - Erich Mühsam

Biz barışı arzuladık ve istedik.
Ama savaş yuvarlanıp geldi dünyaya.
Ve alevler her şeyi kavurdu, ölüm biçti,
İyiliksever Tanrı, bir nefret hayaletine dönüştü.

Vah bize!

İnsanlara mutluluk ve sağduyu sunduk.
Onlarsa açgözlülüğe yer verdiler.
Kıskançlığın uğursuz yazılarına inandılar.
Kıskançlık onlara kurşun döktü; kıskançlık zehir karıştırdı.

Vah bize!

Halklara bir özgürlük şarkısı söyledik.
Onlarsa efendileri için sıraya girdiler.
Efendilerinin iktidarı için savaştılar
ve çocuklarının bekçileri olduklarını sandılar.

Vah bize!

Seslendik, uyardık onları.
Dehşet yaklaşırken kılığına bürünmüştü.
Başını ve çenesini bir pelerinle sardı
ve aynı pelerini insanların gözlerine ve akıllarına örttü.

Vah bize!

Sırıtkan dehşete karşı direndik.
Ama onlar ona el, yürek ya da kılıç verdiler.
Dehşet, kılıca yön verdi.
Milyonlarca beden kumların üstünde kıvrandı.

Vah bize!

Acı ve mücadele içinde çığlık atıyoruz: “Vah bize!”
Dünya mezar ve kül olacak.
Üç hanım kolunu serbestçe uzatıyor:
Açgözlülük, cinayet arzusu ve kölelik.

Vah bize!

Erich Muhsam

"A series of large blasts rocked a key base located near the city of Jableh on the Syrian coast early on July 12 with Syrian media reporting Israeli strikes"
"The latest suspected strikes came following reports of plans by Syria’s new military to deploy one of its units at the base"
"Syria’s new rulers appear to be in the process of understanding that making a concession after another does not necessarily lead to peace"

Hoy es de esos días que de repente en tu zona bajan las temperaturas que hasta + o - se puede dormir.

Notas algo raro, entras a Mastodon y ves granizo del tamaño de bolas de nieve, lluvias torrenciales llevándose coches por medio, zonas siendo evacuadas, ...

Y por tanto decides no poner un toot diciendo: "Pues por aquí se está muy bien".

Y no parece por desgracia que esto termine. El cambio climático mata de calor, de hambre por cosechas perdidas, con precipitaciones de lo de meses en 1 día.

The Israeli #military has declared new strict restrictions in the maritime area adjacent to #Gaza Strip, banning Palestinians from entering the sea.

This ban affects fishermen, swimmers, and divers, prohibiting them from entering the water or engaging in fishing activities. Decision is expected to significantly impact the fish market, where prices are already high due to previous Israeli restrictions.

I'm not a hateful person. But after 21 months of genocide, amazing show of inhumanity & support of the ongoing genocide, I’m feeling so much rage & hate in me that I need to step back and try to find a way to control it

I've never imagined living in a world where people watch children being starved to death, shot in the head, burned alive & still support, fund and arm Israel

Something is fundamentally wrong with our world, Israel uncovered it
