Elon Musk Promises Grok in Tesla Vehicles By Next Week… as the New Grok 4 Blames “Anti-White Hate” on “Jews”

Let's start with the news: Grok 4 is out today. That's the most recent iteration of xAI's conversational AI. Tucked into the Tweet-storm around the release, Elon Musk promised that Grok would be added to Tesla vehicles by "next week at the latest."

Could someone help me setup local file sharing? [Fixed]

So I have things working for me at this point. I was never able to get Samba worling properly. My initial issue was not having a / at the end of my folder path in the Samba config file. After fixing that issue I was able to see the shared folder but was prompted to log in each time, which was an issue in my use case. I ended up abandoning Samba and setting up Jellyfin which has been a much smoother experience, but also is providing many more features. So, if you are looking to share media on your local network, my recommendation would be Jellyfin!

Thank you so much to everyone that commented and helped me a long. I hope I get to return the favor in some way.

Hello, I've been working towards fully migrating to linux, but this is one issue I'm having a hard time with. I have a couple of folders on a storage drive that I share on my local network to stream movies and TV, but I can't figure out how to do it in my Linux install. I'm running Linux Mint 22, have installed Samba, and have tried a few different walkthroughs with no success. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this set up?

Thanks for your time!

Before Trump changed the law, corporations had to pay a 35 percent tax rate on their income. Now, Trump's bill locked in the corporate tax rate at just 21 percent.

How does the bill make up the lost revenue? With cuts to Medicaid and food stamps, starving working families and stopping people from being able to see a doctor so that corporate giants can pocket billions more.

For me it´s just a late-stage us-imperial theater for the plebs.
We all know, this list will never be released, ever!

Still it is funny for an non-`merican to observe: The MAGA crusaders once marched for "truth"—until the "truth" got too close to their daddy and his friends. On the other side anti-MAGA crowd still thinks Trump is some demonic anomaly, not the latest product of a rotting empire. Just sayin´

But who knows, maybe the list will come out one day… in 200 years, for some nerdy historian or bored archivist to scroll through. 😁

Spain, Ireland and China to join more than 20 states to declare ‘concrete measures’ against Israel
More than 20 countries are convening in Bogota next week to declare “concrete measures against Israel’s violations of international law”, diplomats told Middle East Eye.

The “emergency summit” is due to be held on 15-16 July, co-hosted by the governments of Colombia and South Africa as co-chairs of The Hague Group, to coordinate diplomatic and legal action to counter what they describe as “a climate of impunity” enabled by Israel and its powerful allies.

The founding members of the group included Bolivia, Colombia, Cuba, Honduras, Malaysia, Namibia, Senegal and South Africa.

States due to take part in the summit include Algeria, Bangladesh, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, China, Cuba, Djibouti, Honduras, Indonesia, Ireland, Lebanon, Malaysia, Namibia, Nicaragua, Oman, Portugal, Spain, Qatar, Turkey, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Uruguay, and Palestine.

US warns ICC member states to drop proceedings against Israel
The warning was direct, blunt and left no room for doubt. "We expect all ICC actions against the United States and our ally Israel – that is, all investigations and all arrest warrants – to be terminated," said Reed Rubinstein, legal adviser at the US State Department, before delegates of the 125 member states of the International Criminal Court (ICC) on Tuesday, July 8, at a meeting at United Nations headquarters in New York from July 7 to 9.

If the ICC arrest warrants for crimes against humanity and war crimes issued against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant on November 21, 2024, as well as ongoing investigations into crimes committed in the Gaza Strip and the settlement of Palestinian territory, are not dropped, "all options remain on the table," he declared.

The University of Pennsylvania did the right thing and changed its policy, but Newsom is stubborn as heck. With all the problems facing California (immigration, crime, drugs, homelessness, etc.) and a 12 billion budget deficit, Newsom and the Dems chose to pander to trans activists.

This didn't have to happen, and it's all on Newsom and the Democrats in Sacramento. They were given the chance to comply, but flat out refused to sign a resolution agreement.

"The suit comes just days after the California Interscholastic Federation and the state’s Department of Education declined to sign a resolution agreeing to comply with the U.S. Department of Education’s push to ban transgender athletes from women’s sports.

CIF and the state Department of Education sent letters to the U.S. Department of Education declining to sign a resolution agreement on Monday, saying that they disagreed with its Office of Civil Rights’ analysis. CIF and the state Education Department declined to comment, citing pending litigation."

New boss eyes my golf shorts, #hawaiianshirt with a cat, #sandals, and jokes "say, do we _have_ a dress code?"

"Eh. Think we do - employee manual hasn't been updated in at least a decade though, and noone has ever given me any grief, and I dance all over it in the summer. In any case, not only do I know that there ARE bodies, I know where they're buried and in most case I buried them to begin with. So if quibbling over dress code is a priority for this company we have way bigger problems."

Oklahoma's Dept of Ed will use right-wing propaganda outlet PragerU to create a test for determining eligibility to teach, measuring applicants' belief in "American exceptionalism" & acceptance of transphobic gender ideology: foxnews.com/politics/exclusive…
Surely other GOP states & Trump's DOE (using funding as leverage) will follow, making acceptance of far-right beliefs a requirement for teaching, just as it's become for hiring federal workers & allowing people from other countries to visit the US.

Steam sales are now over but i managed to snag a couple more games before the end of the sale.

Painkiller Black was awesome I heard the other games were ehh.. Doom Eternal I heard great things but you gotta block the the game from connecting to the internet because it forces you to setup a stupid bethesda account otherwise. I Remember chips challenge from the 1995 pack sold with Jezzball, pipe dream so I figured why not I'll get chips challenge 2 while it's cheap.

I think a lot of peope understandably misunderstand this post because it doesn't really explain the situation. After reading OP's comments I gather that OP put a new server online (not on AWS) and was immediately port scanned by a host that is on AWS. Since OP did not consent to being port scanned, they filled out an abuse complaint with AWS, the hoster the scan came from, out of principle, knowing that it probably won't do much. Which is totally fine if that is how you want to spend your time.

I think what most commenters thought is that OP was hosting with AWS and complained to them that someone else scanned their server. This does not seem to be the case.

Absolutely not — the issue here is OP knowingly submitting false abuse reports.

Port scans of public hosts are not considered abuse per the CFAA or Amazon’s AUP without other accompanying signs of malicious intent.

aws.amazon.com/aup/

Amazon may take action against egregious mass-scanning offenders per the “…to violate the security, integrity, or availability of any user, network…” verbiage of the AUP, especially if they’re fingerprinting services or engaging in more sophisticated recon, but OP’s complaints are nowhere near meeting that threshold.

I have close family members who have been diagnosed with autism, and my full-time job is being a support worker for adults who have learning disabilities and autism.
This is beyond disgusting.

Gregg Wallace is attempting to downplay his behaviour as being the fault of the BBC and MasterChef production team failing to notice that he has autism.
His friends are backing up the autism claim by saying that it prevents him from wearing underwear.

That doesn't justify sexual assault.
