This long term and continuous stream of displacement propaganda and other bullshit means that when the pushback really starts happening, no-one will care to listen to them.

They use words like they're magic spells to get what they want instead of tools to describe reality and communicate truth and principals. They're socially manipulative bandits and thieves and we've been mistakenly treating them like they're people (honest good faith actors).

I wonder if more people would understand #decentralization if it were explained in the more relevant terms of legal jurisdiction rather than in technical terms.

In sum: because the #fediverse is not a single company, not every service provider (instance owner) is subject to the same laws. An instance owner with his person, business, and hardware in, say, Nicaragua doesn't need to worry about legal consequences for violating a #Mississippi law requiring age verification. And because the law only applies to websites, users are in the clear.

Of course, that isn't as family-friendly as the tech explanation and makes the normies feel like they're buying drugs on the Silk Road.

RUMEURS SUR BRIGITTE : POURQUOI MACRON JOUE AU POMPIER PYROMANE SUR LA TRANSPHOBIE


🔴 Soutenez, partagez, rejoignez la riposte pour une INFO libre, populaire sur la TNT et les réseaux-sociaux ! lemediatv.fr/campagne

Le décès du streamer Raphaël Graven, alias Jean Pormanove, lors d’un live sur Kick, révèle les failles béantes de la régulation numérique. Humiliations, violences, profits colossaux : malgré les alertes de la LDH et de Médiapart, l’Arcom n’a rien fait. Clara Chappaz, ministre du Numérique, affirme qu’une enquête était en cours depuis fin 2024, mais n’a jamais saisi l’autorité. L’affaire vire au scandale politique : gauche et associations dénoncent une inertie dramatique et des propositions absurdes surgissent déjà, entre “IA censeuse” et vidéos en noir et blanc.

Au même moment, Emmanuel et Brigitte Macron portent plainte contre Candace Owens, influenceuse d’extrême droite américaine qui diffuse la rumeur transphobe selon laquelle la Première dame serait un homme. Macron dit défendre son “honneur”, mais ne nomme jamais la transphobie, alors que sa politique l’entretient. Être trans ou homosexuel n’a rien de diffamant : seul un regard discriminant le transforme en insulte. Derrière la riposte judiciaire, un malaise persiste : celui d’un pouvoir plus prompt à défendre son image qu’à protéger les victimes de violences en ligne.

_The Open-Source AI That’s Beating Google and OpenAI at Science_

FTA: Intern-S1’s revolutionary approach is to be a “specialized generalist” . It was trained on a colossal 5 trillion tokens of data, with over half—a staggering 2.5 trillion tokens—meticulously curated from scientific fields . To achieve this, its creators built ingenious data pipelines that can intelligently parse complex scientific papers and extract knowledge with unprecedented purity . Architecturally, it’s a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model, which functions like an internal team of specialists it can call upon for specific tasks, making it incredibly efficient . Most impressively, it uses a novel “Dynamic Tokenizer” that learns to speak the native languages of science, like the SMILES notation for molecules, compressing complex information 70% more efficiently than its predecessors.
...
The results are stunning. While maintaining top-tier performance on general reasoning tasks, Intern-S1 consistently outperforms models like OpenAI’s o3 and Google’s Gemini 2.5 Pro on benchmarks ranging from predicting chemical reactions to analyzing earth science data . The single most significant contribution of this work is its resounding proof that the open-source community can lead the charge in creating AI for science. Intern-S1 is more than a model from my perspective. It's a blueprint for democratizing the tools of discovery and empowering a new generation of researchers to tackle humanity’s greatest challenges.
...
The world of scientific research remained a stubborn frontier despite all efforts. This wasn't for lack of trying. The challenge is that science doesn’t just speak in English; it communicates through a dizzying array of modalities. A scientist needs to understand text, but also molecular structures, protein sequences, time-series signals from a particle accelerator, satellite imagery, and complex diagrams .

This data is not only diverse but also often "low-resource" compared to the near-infinite ocean of text on the internet . Consequently, open-source models trained on general web data lagged significantly, unable to master the nuanced languages of scientific inquiry .

The prevailing assumption was that simply scaling up general-purpose models would eventually grant them scientific expertise—an approach that proved inefficient and slow.

Intern-S1’s breakthrough comes from rejecting this one-size-fits-all philosophy. Its creators engineered a paradigm shift through a trifecta of innovations:

that's a good philosophical question. it won't matter if im blindfolded and earmuffed, since my mind will fill in the blanks. does that mean that i find female hands erotic? not really.

if i had any sort of feedback (sight, sound, more physical touch than just a hand), id be able to figure out what's happening and it wouldn't arouse me. the actual sex of the hands doesn't make a difference, it's what i would be fantasizing about when i have no other feedback

CETTE SPÉCIALISTE EXPLIQUE POURQUOI LA RÉINDUSTRIALISATION DE LA FRANCE EST UN ÉCHEC (A.VOY-GILLIS)

Des usines ferment, les plans de licenciement se multiplient, tandis que les dividendes continuent de prospérer. Alors qu’Emmanuel #Macron avait lancé une politique de réindustrialisation visant à rattraper les performances de ses voisins allemands et italiens, les chiffres de 2025 révèlent une nette baisse de l’activité industrielle française. Pourquoi cette politique ne fonctionne-t-elle pas ? Que se passe-t-il exactement ? Pour en discuter, nous recevons Anaïs Voy-Gillis, docteure en géographie et chercheuse, spécialiste des enjeux industriels en #France et en #Europe. Elle est l’autrice de plusieurs ouvrages, dont Pour une révolution industrielle, paru en janvier dernier aux éditions des Presses de la Cité.

📢 Κάλεσμα του Συντονισμού Συλλογικοτήτων Ηρακλείου για την Παλαιστίνη σε συγκέντρωση την Κυριακή 24/08 στις 19:30 στην Πλατεία Ελευθερίας.

Αυτή η γη, δεν είναι
για πούλημα!

Κάλεσμα σε συγκέντρωση την Κυριακή 24/8/2025 στην πλ.Ελευθερίας στο Ηράκλειο Κρήτης, σε στήριξη με τον χρόνια δοκιμαζόμενο παλαιστινιακό λαό από τις αποικιοκρατικές δυνάμεις του σιωνισμού και της Δύσης.

Η "τελική λύση" από την μεριά του σιωνιστικού μορφώματος ενεργοποιήθηκε ώρες αφότου η Παλαιστινιακή Αντίσταση για πολλοστή φορά είχε αποδεκτεί πρόταση για 2μηνη κατάπαυση πυρός, συμφωνία ανταλλαγής ομήρων και είσοδο της ανθρωπιστικής βοήθειας στην μαρτυρική και αντιστασιακή Γάζα.

Αναγνωρίζοντας τον αγώνα των παλαιστινίων σαν πρότυπο αντιαποικιακού, αντιφασιστικού αγώνα σε όλα τα επίπεδα, δε μπορούμε -εμπνευσμένοι/ες/α από αυτόν- παρά να βρισκόμαστε οπουδήποτε καλείται κάτι υπέρ του και κατά του σιωνιστικού κανιβαλισμού.

Θανατος στο Σιωνισμό
Νίκη στα όπλα της Παλαιστινιακής Αντίστασης.
Μόνο οι Λαοί σώνουν τους Λαούς

GB news report on UKIP March in Liverpool today as police allow antifa to try and attack the march in the city centre.

We have seen this for decades, the police march the labour activist up to anyone who is standing against the WEF agenda to try and trigger violence.

The media can then take very selective clips of video and say, "Arrests were made at an anti-refugee protest." They never say who the violent protesters were working for, the Labour Party!

@Max_Imum right on the money there. Trump's ostentatious decor is more in line with czarist Russia starting with their German queen Catherine the Great trying to outshine anything in Western Europe because the stuck up Western Europeans refused to consider them anything more than eastern rednecks. Obama's later Soviet or lack thereof style aims to hide the wealth from the proles while slightly still implying a superior station.
