I appreciate the academic and rigorous effort to measure the bullshit that LLMs generate: machine-bullshit.github.io/

I just wish we would do away with the rhetoric that we're just aiming to make these models better.

How about no? How about admitting that the premise is poisoned from the start?

How about saying that holding everyone's labor, creativity and expression hostage for the sake of deskilling people and making them precarious is a horrible idea?

Yep. Also, chatbots cannot possibly get any better than they already are, because they're polluting the internet with error-strewn slop - and that's their training dataset! They've already reached peak performance and it's all downhill from here, no matter how much more money is thrown at them.

The analogy I've used before is that it's like feeding a chicken its own eggs. It'll work for a while...but eventually the chicken will die from malnutrition.

LA CAUSE PALESTINIENNE

En septembre #1983, Gilles #Deleuze écrit ce texte qui n’a pas vieillit d’une ligne. À vous de le diffuser. [ Dans Deux Régimes de fous, textes et entretiens 1975-1995, Éditions de Minuit, 2003, p. p. 221-223. ]

La cause palestinienne est d’abord l’ensemble des injustices que ce peuple a subies et ne cesse de subir. Ces injustices sont les actes de violence, mais aussi les illogismes, les faux raisonnements, les fausses garanties qui prétendent les compenser ou les justifier.

(…) D’un bout à l’autre, il s’agira de faire comme si le peuple palestinien, non seulement ne devait plus être, mais n’avait jamais été.

Les conquérants étaient de ceux qui avaient subi eux-mêmes le plus grand #génocide de l’ #histoire. De ce génocide, les sionistes avaient fait un mal absolu. Mais transformer le plus grand génocide de l’histoire en mal absolu, c’est une vision religieuse et mystique, ce n’est pas une vision historique. Elle n’arrête pas le mal ; au contraire, elle le propage, elle le fait retomber sur d’autres innocents, elle exige une réparation qui fait subir à ces autres une partie de ce que les #juifs ont subi (l’expulsion, la mise en ghetto, la disparition comme peuple). Avec des moyens plus « froids » que le génocide, on veut aboutir au même résultat.

Les USA et l’Europe devaient réparation aux juifs. Et cette réparation, ils la firent payer par un peuple dont le moins qu’on puisse dire est qu’il n’y était pour rien, singulièrement innocent de tout holocauste et n’en ayant même pas entendu parler. C’est là que le grotesque commence, aussi bien que la violence. Le #sionisme, puis l’État d’ #Israël exigeront que les Palestiniens les reconnaissent en droit. Mais lui, l’État d’Israël, il ne cessera de nier le fait même d’un peuple palestinien. On ne parlera jamais de #Palestiniens, mais d’ #Arabes de #Palestine, comme s’ils s’étaient trouvés là par hasard ou par erreur. Et plus tard, on fera comme si les Palestiniens expulsés venaient du dehors, on ne parlera pas de la première guerre de résistance qu’ils ont menée tout seuls. On en fera les descendants d’Hitler, puisqu’ils ne reconnaissaient pas le droit d’Israël. Mais Israël se réserve le droit de nier leur existence de fait. C’est là que commence une fiction qui devait s’étendre de plus en plus, et peser sur tous ceux qui défendaient la cause palestinienne. Cette fiction, ce pari d’Israël, c’était de faire passer pour antisémites tous ceux qui contesteraient les conditions de fait et les actions de l’Etat sioniste. Cette opération trouve sa source dans la froide politique d’Israël à l’égard des Palestiniens.

Israël n’a jamais caché son but, dès le début : faire le vide dans le territoire palestinien. Et bien mieux, faire comme si le territoire palestinien était vide, destiné depuis toujours aux sionistes. Il s’agissait bien de colonisation, mais pas au sens européen du XIX° siècle : on n’exploiterait pas les habitants du pays, on les ferait partir. Ceux qui resteraient, on n’en ferait pas une main-d’œuvre dépendant du territoire, mais plutôt une main-d’œuvre volante et détachée, comme si c’étaient des immigrés mis en ghetto. Dès le début, c’est l’achat des terres sous la condition qu’elles soient vides d’occupants, ou vidables. C’est un génocide, mais où l’extermination physique reste subordonnée à l’évacuation géographique : n’étant que des Arabes en général, les Palestiniens survivants doivent aller se fondre avec les autres Arabes. L’extermination physique, qu’elle soit ou non confiée à des mercenaires, est parfaitement présente. Mais ce n’est pas un génocide, dit-on, puisqu’elle n’est pas le « but final » : en effet, c’est un moyen parmi d’autres.

La complicité des #Etats-Unis avec Israël ne vient pas seulement de la puissance d’un lobby sioniste. Elias Sanbar a bien montré comment les #États-Unis retrouvaient dans Israël un aspect de leur histoire : l’extermination des Indiens, qui, là aussi, ne fut qu’en partie directement physique. il s’agissait de faire le vide, et comme s’il n’y avait jamais eu d’Indiens, sauf dans des ghettos qui en feraient autant d’immigrés du dedans. A beaucoup d’égards, les Palestiniens sont les nouveaux #Indiens, les Indiens d’Israël. L’analyse marxiste indique les deux mouvements complémentaires du #capitalisme : s’imposer constamment des limites, à l’intérieur desquelles il aménage et exploite son propre système ; repousser toujours plus loin ces limites, les dépasser pour recommencer en plus grand ou en plus intense sa propre fondation. Repousser les limites, c’était l’acte du capitalisme américain, du rêve américain, repris par Israël et le rêve du Grand Israël sur territoire arabe, sur le dos des Arabes.

CrowdBucks is a new payment system for the Fediverse


 A new, open source, self-hostable fundraising system for the Fediverse has been released. The project is very young, but there’s a huge amount of promise.

More developments are happening on the front to provide payment and monetization options for the Social Web. Over the past few years, there have been interesting experiments in making this possible. Mitra, notably, pioneered subscription payments by utilizing Monero. Bandwagon has also built on the concept by instead relying on integrations with traditional payment networks, starting with Stripe and PayPal. The short-lived SubClub implemented private feeds for paid access.

Introducing CrowdBucks


CrowdBucks is a new effort developed by Charles Iliya Krempeaux, better known by his online moniker, Reiver. It builds on some of the ideas previous implementations have tried, and aims to make the process as smooth and simple as possible.

“The long-term vision that CrowdBucks is a part of is to create a payments layer for the Fediverse,” Reiver explains, “obviously, it’s not the only part, there will be other projects later.”
CrowdBucks caption saying "All You Have to Do...As a Helper...1. Open a CrowdBucks Page2. Sign In with a Fediverse Account3. Donate"Source: CrowdBucks

Signing Up


Instead of forcing users to create yet another account, CrowdBucks does something really smart: you can just sign in with an existing Fediverse account.

At the moment, sign-in is limited to just Mastodon, but the plan is to gradually support a number of different platforms. Since a lot of Fediverse software implements part of the Mastodon API, I attempted to log in with both Akkoma and WordPress, but neither one seems to work yet. We opted to use a tried-and-true community instance.

After doing the Authorization dance, CrowdBucks directs users to a simple dashboard, where they are prompted to do basic setup for their page. Fediverse integration automatically pulls in profile details, including the username, avatar, header, and handle, although most of the public-facing details can be customized.


Getting Set Up


The first thing to do with your account is to set fundraising goals and donation tiers. The flow feels reminiscent of something like Kickstarter or Patreon, where rewards can be spelled out as something symbolic, something digital, or even something tangible.
You can view our demo account here. Please, don’t actually donate to this.

Donations and Payments


Support tiers can be set up with any monthly denomination, and these get prominently displayed on your CrowdBucks page. Donors can use their CrowdBucks accounts to find a page, select a tier, and support creators and projects easily.

When a person pledges towards a Tier, they’re automatically taken to a checkout page. For the time being, the only supported Payment Processor is Stripe. Reiver has explained that this is because Stripe was easiest to implement, but the team intends to also add support for PayPal and other providers, as well as support for standards such as Web Monetization and OpenPayments.


Quick Demo


CrowdBucks was initially revealed in a brief demo at FediCon a few weeks ago, which was recorded and added alongside the FediCon Talks on PeerTube. It’s a useful insight into where Reiver is coming from, what’s being built, and ideas of what CrowdBucks could be used for.

spectra.video/videos/embed/5bp…

Open Source and Self-Hostable


“Anyone will be able to set up their own CrowdBucks server,” Reiver explains, “just like anyone can set up their own Mastodon server.”

The CrowdBucks project itself is licensed under the GNU AGPL, with source code readily available. The CrowdBucks.fund site is simply operated as a flagship instance, but the goal is to allow anyone to host their own version as part of their operational infrastructure.

“We want CrowdBucks to help pay server bills, to support developers building Fedi software, and to fund creators on the Fediverse. The whole thing is designed to be native to the Fediverse.”

Future Plans


While the project itself is still fairly young, the team is actively thinking about how to improve. One area CrowdBucks is already exploring involves the ability for the app to post to the Fediverse on the behalf of fundraisers, for example, to give credit to supporters. Another possibility might involve collaborating with Emissary to standardize pieces involving payments and private access.

This is an exciting endeavor, and might be one of the most polished attempts yet to make payments possible on the Social Web. Hopefully, existing projects will get involved, and hash out the details on how to make this as open and interoperable as possible.

High-Efficiency Waste Management with Plastic to Oil Machine

The accumulation of plastic waste has created a pressing global challenge, demanding innovative approaches to waste management. A plastic to oil machine addresses this issue by transforming discarded plastics into usable fuel. Through controlled pyrolysis, long-chain polymers are thermally decomposed into oil, gas, and carbon-rich residues. This conversion not only diverts plastic from landfills but also generates a secondary energy source, reducing dependency on conventional fossil fuels.

Advancements in Process Efficiency

Modern systems incorporate high-efficiency designs that minimize energy input while maximizing fuel yield. Heat exchangers and insulation technologies recycle thermal energy, ensuring reduced operational cost. Automated feeding and discharging mechanisms further improve throughput, preventing interruptions that traditionally caused inefficiencies. A plastic to oil machine designed with continuous processing capabilities delivers stable performance, optimizing both time and energy use for large-scale waste management applications.

Fuel Quality and Versatility

The oil produced through pyrolysis is a versatile fuel with multiple downstream applications. It can be refined into diesel, blended for industrial boilers, or utilized in power generation. By offering an alternative to crude-derived fuels, a plastic to oil machine supports energy diversification strategies. The consistent calorific value of the oil enhances its reliability, making it suitable for a range of industrial and commercial energy needs. Gas generated during the process can be recirculated to sustain reactor heating, reinforcing the closed-loop energy model.

Environmental and Economic Benefits

Integrating this technology into waste management systems significantly reduces the environmental footprint of plastic disposal. Open burning and landfill accumulation are minimized, mitigating air and soil pollution. Additionally, operators gain an economic advantage by monetizing both the oil and byproducts such as carbon black. The dual benefit of environmental compliance and revenue generation makes adoption of a plastic to oil machine particularly attractive for municipalities, private recyclers, and industrial enterprises.

Scalability and Future Outlook

The adaptability of pyrolysis technology ensures its relevance in diverse contexts. Small-scale units provide localized waste solutions for urban communities, while large-capacity installations support national waste-to-energy programs. A plastic to oil machine configured with advanced emission control systems meets strict environmental regulations, reinforcing its suitability for future waste management frameworks. As global policies move toward circular economy models, this technology stands out as a scalable and sustainable pathway to reduce plastic waste while supplying renewable energy.

Conclusion

High-efficiency waste management is increasingly tied to technologies that convert liabilities into assets. A plastic to oil machine exemplifies this principle by addressing the dual challenges of plastic pollution and energy scarcity. Through advancements in efficiency, fuel versatility, and environmental performance, it plays a critical role in reshaping waste management into a resource-generating system. Its integration marks a decisive step toward sustainable practices that balance economic viability with ecological responsibility.
