In my day job, I work for a media company that focuses on the toy industry.

Apropos of nothing, I decided to add the Mastodon plushie (aka #Plushtodon) to the latest products on our Toy Insider website.

Please boost this so our editors will frustratingly tell me to stop trying to make Mastodon happen.

After years of depicting Klarna as an AI-first company, the fintech’s CEO reversed himself, telling Bloomberg the company was once again recruiting humans after the AI approach led to “lower quality.” An IBM survey reveals this is a common occurrence for AI use in business, where just 1 in 4 projects delivers the return it promised and even fewer are scaled up.

Quotes

  • Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
  • Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
  • Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
  • Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.

  • Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
  • Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
  • Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
  • Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
  • Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
  • Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
  • Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.

  • Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.

  • Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
  • Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
  • Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
  • Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
  • Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.

For two days I've been on a driveway repair job. The customer stupidly allowed a pipe laying contractor to trench down the middle of his 1/2 mile driveway when here in central South Carolina it is all clay below the surface, which made for a sloppy muddy mess. He hired me to rectify this situation, which, in the middle of we got un-forecasted massive rains making a mess into a muddy swamp. I'm surprised the gators didn't move in.

Amazing Benefits from Half a Tablespoon of Olive Oil

The evidence keeps accumulating that olive oil can help people lose weight and reduce the risk of heart disease and dementia. Getting enough?

peoplespharmacy.com/articles/a…

A lot of health professionals discouraged the use of olive oil because it contains roughly 14% saturated fat. In retrospect, a lot of “experts” were wrong about low fat/no fat and olive oil.

C Diff Infections Can Be Treated with Microbiota

C diff infections causing diarrhea have become widespread in the community. They can be treated with healthy microbes given via colonoscopy.

Another potential culprit is the widespread use of acid-suppressing drugs such as esomeprazole, lansoprazole or omeprazole. People who take such heartburn medicine (think Nexium, Prevacid or Prilosec) on a regular basis are at increased risk for C. diff.

Le sionistan doit être exclu de l’Eurovision !

Depuis plus de 17 mois, le sionistan mène une politique génocidaire contre le peuple palestinien.

L’art ne peut être neutre, et les organisateurs d’événements culturels doivent répondre de leurs choix.

Cette exigence de responsabilité est portée par les artistes eux-mêmes : 72 anciens candidats de l’Eurovision, dont trois Français, ont demandé l’exclusion du sionistan en raison de ses crimes.

Des milliers de Français, ainsi que des associations et collectifs de défense des droits humains, soutiennent cette demande. La mobilisation ne cessera pas tant que le sionistan ne sera pas exclu.

So yesterday I saw a @postmarketOS toot about their web flasher for Android devices, and I thought - how hard would it be to make one for L5? Turns out - not hard at all. Here it is booting Jumpdrive.

Some caveats:
- requires permission setting on Linux 😔 I may work out-of-box on other platforms though
- it's sloooow, but there's hope: github.com/WebAssembly/design/…
- asks 5 times to allow access to the device. Could go down to 3, but no less than that.

#librem5 #linuxmobile #mobilelinux #nxp #imx

Threads + memory growth + JS · Issue #1271 · WebAssembly/design

In the last meeting we briefly discussed this, and it was suggested that I write up more details of the problem and some possible solutions. I did that here: https://gist.github.com/kripken/949eab9...

@opensourceopenmind @postmarketOS Yes, it needs WebUSB & WebHID and therefore Chromium. Dunno how well Chromium plays with Flatpak though, sounds like it could be fiddly.

I'm not sure I'm convinced about convenience being so much better. Definitely on Windows or macOS, but since uuu is packaged across distros it would seem to me that the option with the least friction is usually to just grab it from the repos. I'm willing to accept that I'm the weird one though 😜

Et ce discours simple et clair est plus approprié que ces mythes sans fin sur la divinité du Christ, simplement parce qu'il est venu sans père, et sur la divinité des trois hypostases également.
