Funny you mention Baraga, as that is my overnight stay on my northward journey to Houghton. Since I have an 8-9 drive one way, I'm only afforded beautiful views through the windows as I take the kiddo up to school.
Les rats morts de #US et #Ukraine tentent le coup désormais classique de l'utilisation d'armes chimiques pour pointer la #Russie.
Le directeur de la #CIA #Ratcliffe a déclaré que l’utilisation d’armes chimiques par la Russie, telle que l’Ukraine accuse la Fédération de Russie, est illégale et a précisé que le président «ne tolérera pas les violations du droit international par quiconque». Trump a confirmé. Ratcliffe a également déclaré qu’il était prêt à présenter à Trump les informations disponibles sur l’utilisation d’armes chimiques en Ukraine… par la Russie bien sûr ! Dans la diabolisation de la Russie, les États-Unis ont commencé à utiliser une ancienne technique poussiéreuse sur les armes chimiques, grâce à laquelle ils ont détruit l’ #Irak et tenté de détruire la #Syrie. Ceci est un imbroglio géopolitique : vous pouvez expliquer et prouver jusqu’à en perdre votre voix que la Russie n’a pas utilisé d’armes chimiques (mais que l’Ukraine l’a fait…) – cela n’intéresse personne.

just realized that as soon as tech companies made the shift from siri style "personal assistants" to "AI" that you were supposed to trust for actual answers about things, they stopped gendering them all as feminine. grok, chatgpt, claude, they're all either neutral or masculine
I think that’s just because they don’t want the bad press from horny dudes using them as sexbots. But they do want the money. So they just let Replika and others use the API.
"Neutral or masculine"? So some are nonbinary? /s I suspect they're all masculine—the ones where that isn't specified will be assumed to be masculine by techbros. I _do_ kind of love the idea of a nonbinary AI—_pour épater les bourgeosie._ <ducks>
I've wondered about that. I've thought about throwing up a poll asking whether folks read an author's voice into GPT and other bots and if it is male, female, or neutral.
With text to speech I always wind up picking a low pitched, thus "male", voice just because it sounds less wrong and artificial to me. Somehow not necessarily robotic, more like someone with a calm flat delivery.
Not sure if it's physics of hearing or psychology of hearing, but the higher the more synth-y to my ears.
Wer sich wundert, dass deutsche Medien, deutsche Politiker*innen, deutsche Kirchen etc. den Völkermord in #Gaza nicht als solchen benennen, sei daran erinnert, dass die Deutschen erst nach vier Jahrzehnten und einem Hungerstreik von Überlebenden bereit waren, ihren eigenen Völkermord an mehreren hunderttausend europäischen Sinti und Roma als solchen zu benennen. Bis heute wird er gerne vergessen.

@Sophistifunk Nah. This is a problem of modern woke culture. I do know a conservative family who's daughter went from lesbian to full on trans male. The woke schools and Tik Tok culture gave her a brain worm. I actually know more than one "normal" family this has happened to. The bkacks in the ghettos have multiple kids in poor fatherless households but you don't really see them buying into this insanity. They gots the hood culture that sends them right to jail instead of hormone treatment. 🤷♂️

Agenda item 7: Human rights situation in #Palestine and other occupied Arab territories
FROM ECONOMY OF OCCUPATION TO ECONOMY OF GENOCIDE
**Report of the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967***, ** Summary
This report investigates the corporate machinery sustaining #Israel’s settler-colonial project of displacement and replacement of the Palestinians in the occupied territory. While political leaders and governments shirk their obligations, far too many corporate entities have profited from #Israel’s economy of illegal #occupation, #apartheid and now, #genocide. The complicity exposed by this report is just the tip of the iceberg; ending it will not happen without holding the private sector accountable, including its executives. International law recognizes varying degrees of responsibility – each requiring scrutiny and accountability, particularly in this case, where a people’s self-determination and very existence are at stake. This is a necessary step to end the genocide and dismantle the global system that has allowed it.
#Microsoft, #Alphabet and #Amazon grant #Israel virtually government-wide access to their cloud and #AI technologies, enhancing data processing, decision-making and surveillance/analysis capacities.[100] In October 2023, when Israel’s internal military cloud overloaded,[101] Microsoft Azure and Project Nimbus Consortium stepped in with critical cloud and AI infrastructure.[102] Their Israel-located servers ensure data sovereignty and a shield from accountability,[103] under favourable contracts offering minimal restrictions or oversight.[104] In July 2024, an Israeli colonel described cloud tech as “a weapon in every sense of the word”, citing these companies.
The Israeli military has developed AI systems like “Lavender”, “Gospel” and “Where’s Daddy?” to process data and generate lists of targets,[106] reshaping modern warfare and illustrating AI’s dual-use nature. #Palantir Technology Inc., whose tech collaboration with Israel long predates October 2023, expanded its support to the Israeli military post-October 2023.[107] There are reasonable grounds to believe Palantir has provided automatic predictive policing technology, core defence infrastructure for rapid and scaled-up construction and deployment of military software, and its Artificial Intelligence Platform, which allows real-time battlefield data integration for automated decision-making.[108] In January 2024, Palantir announced a new strategic partnership with Israel and held a board meeting in Tel Aviv “in solidarity”;[109] in April 2025, #Palantir’s CEO responded to accusations that Palantir had killed Palestinians in Gaza by saying, “mostly terrorists, that’s true”.[110] Both incidents are indicative of executive-level knowledge and purpose vis-à-vis Israel’s unlawful use of force, and failure to prevent such acts or withdraw involvement.
“It’s particularly interesting from [Jackson]. It’s not long ago that Justice Barrett went after Justice Jackson for what she described as basically an imperial judiciary,” Turley said. “And on this occasion, Jackson is alone. She couldn’t even get Justice Sotomayor to sign onto this dissent. Keep in mind, what Sotomayor noted in her concurrence is that this order was simply having agencies plan for downsizing and she said we can hardly stop that.
@Emmanuel Florac Are the French partying? Are the French so carefree these days or are people just hesitant because of the COVID scare and lockdown not so long ago? I don't party but that's just a personal act.
@Carter Braxton it's generational. My children (25-28) party a lot, way more than I ever did (but I'm an antisocial nerd, I never enjoyed parties much). But apparently teens are much more isolated.

De la France, on a chassé La noble vermine On a tout rasé, cassé Et tout mis en ruine Mais de noble, on a gardé De mourir le cou tranché Par la guillotine, ô gué! Par la guillotine!
Messieurs les nobles mutins Dont chacun s'échine Soufflant par des efforts vains La guerre intestine Si nous vous prenons vraiment Vous mourrez très noblement À la guillotine, ô gué! À la guillotine!

@Emmanuel Florac Indeed, those raids worked out greatly. Incidentally, the British and subsequently, the Americans weren't calling themselves immigrants at that time, were they? They were invaders in a declarative manner. Why must you people be so disingenuous when trying to make your points?
@Carter Braxton does the word matter, or the thing itself ? People come to a place far from home to stay there. They're immigrants, by the definition of the word. Then there's the relationship they're building up (or not) with other people already here. Usually with several different mode of interaction simultaneously : some people assimilate with the autochtones, some live alongside them, some fight them, etc. Similarly autochtones may simultaneously accept some immigrants, reject some, fight some, etc.
I fail to see what particular value you seem to put in the word "invaders".
@Emmanuel Florac The world is not synonymous with the earth. The earth is the physical construct, the tangible, while the world involves the politics the infrastructures, the regulations and the bureaucracies.
One finds it amusing if not sometimes more annoying how Europeans, the original invaders of not only the New World, but Africa, Asia and the Middle East, pretend as if the United States upon its founding, started mistreating the natives.
Europeans love pretending as if they, including the pompous French, had no hand in the mistreating of their colonies of niggers in Africa, the native Americans in their American or Caribbean colonies and the Arabs in the Middle East where the also had colonies. It is as if they have selective memories.
Europeans seem to pretend to forget, that while many of them stayed at home, away from their colonies, they propped up and supported the regimes from their homes. It is time that they are reminded that pretending to have newly washed hands will not absolve them for their past or present selves either.
