This is terrible, and expectedly so, from an administration that is following the fascist playbook of hitting hard on media outlets to get them in line
It’s depressing and angering that CBS is going along with it
anticipatory obedience by major media is of course dreadful

LLM vendors redefined "intelligence" to describe their bullshit products.
Now they've redefined "reasoning" to describe their bullshit products.
They've also redefined "open source" to describe their bullshit products.
Deepseek is not open source. When an LLM shyster says "open source" they mean you can download the model. They will not provide you with the data or training mechanisms to recreate that model. Don't let them trick you about this.
“Hearing that Trump is about to double down on the constitutional crisis. A President cannot eliminate an appropriated federal agency by executive order. That’s what a despot - who wants to steal the taxpayers money to enrich his billionaire cabal - does.
Watch USAID tonight.” - US Senator Chris Murphy (D- Connecticut)

"web" as a metaphor for the interconnected nature of the Internet
"bog" as a metaphor because all the websites are just chilling here, decaying slowly together. new sites spring up and die, joining the peat, forming a unique environment for a whole host of users. a weird ecosystem that's fascinating and important and sometimes dangerous
There once was a journalist so wise
Investigating truth with his eyes
But on WhatsApp he did find
Spyware of the Israeli kind

Fun fact: The #Shelly BLU TRV radiator thermostats support pairing door/window sensors to them, in order to close the radiator valve while the door is open.
There's a configurable setting for how long this "door open" override should be in effect.
The default is 2147483647 (2³¹-1) seconds.
So, in order to ensure that the timer doesn't run out, causing the radiator to turn on while the door is still open, make sure that you close and reopen the door at least every 68 years.

New Zine: How To Do It Anyway: A Guide to Self-Managing an Abortion at Home
"This zine is a love letter to anyone who finds themself hungry for the information contained in these pages, no matter the circumstances that lead to this booklet coming into your hands. This resource was diligently compiled and written with care by a few clinic workers in the midwest for the patients we can’t see anymore, in the wake of the US Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v.

Fascist fucks and their liberal enablers fight the culture war by posing questions like “it’s been five years since the pandemic, what are your thoughts now that it’s over? and “Do you think Fuckerbusk’s gesture was actually a Nazi salute? Discuss!”
It’s not a bad tactic and so I suggest we all resolve to loudly and publicly ask more questions like “When is the next Luigi going to kill another terrible CEO?” and “Isn’t it great that we don’t have to obey any of these executive orders? What’s your favorite rule to break?”
It's 2am, you get a riddle on Signal from a number you've never seen before. You don't reply. By 4am you have an answer and a set of GPS coordinates, a date range, and a size in gigabytes. You wait. You go. You find a single board computer running off of a dingy solar panel; it copies everything to your drive as soon as you insert it. When finished, the machine goes silent. The internal drive wiped.
You're the bearer of the library now. You know your solemn task.

... und jetzt kommt gleich wieder einer um dir Ecke und sagt : BSW wäre nicht links.
Lest das Wahlprogramm. Sie selbst nennen sich links konservativ.
Und damit wäre klar, dass ihr recht habt.
Links und rechts ist eine Scheiß Einteilung. Humanistisch, progressiv fehlt da beispielsweise komplett.

If you work for the federal government, now seems like a good time to hide or pass on anything of value and break anything that can be weaponized.

Elon’s Twitter Destruction Playbook Hits The US Government, And It’s Even More Dangerous
Remember how Elon Musk destroyed Twitter by ripping apart its infrastructure without understanding it? Now imagine that same playbook applied to the federal government. It’s happening, and th…Techdirt
I want to live in a future where body modification, otherkinnism, pluralism and gender identity are so normalized that people don't even think about it anymore.
Like imagine going to a wedding, and in one side you have Mr. and Ms. Stevenson, a couple of married cis white people, and at the other side a polycule of a post-human trans fox girl, a robot girl, a plural dog femboy and an intersex human with four arms
And you watch them interact, and instead of focusing on how different they are... they accept eachother, they ask about life, they hug and they respect eachothers' boundaries, they don't even think about them being trans, or non-human, because it's so normalized and efficient that it's not even put into question
the word "cis" and "trans" are meaningless anymore because nobody even asks, people just are.
Your child came out as a fox, that's awesome! You can easily get a quick and reversible surgery to get them a tail and everything they ever wanted, they can change their body in an instant, people see it not only as normal but as natural
this is how people should be, it's not a deviation of the norm, it's the inherent and emergent nature of being a person on itself, or perhaps, even becoming a non-person with sapient abilities.
I desperately need this world to exist.

So Donald gets a billion dollar payout, CBS is suitably whipped and backs off ever criticizing the Great Man again, and Paramount gets closer to becoming another monopoly that is beyond the law.
What's the problem? Everybody wins.
Cool and normal.
