@bagder What do you think changed? Better tools? Stopping the bug bounty?

Recently I read a post by some jackhole techbro who wants a default automatic feed algorithm here just like Big Socialâ„¢.

Opening the door for AI bullshit is not even the worst part of this idea.

Folks, all of us here ARE the algorithm. Personal curation is a feature, not a bug.

We make Mastodon awesome by following people and boosting what we find meaningful, significant or just cool. That's how it works.

Let's keep making friends. Let's keep sharing. Let's keep Mastodon alive. Together. 💖

The thing about AI replacing analysts that I think is implicit to a lot of people who understand AI, but not at all clear to the people doing layoffs is this: adversaries use AI for automation and as a force multiplier too. Humans are the deciding difference in who wins, beyond equal automation.

Last update on this: it does make sense after you click on the link. Presumably (mostly) not a scam.

There’s so much (ignored) solar power in the warmer months that they’re finally tapping into it, commercially speaking

In essence, this ad claims to refund half your energy use from now until September (in France, that’s when the cold season starts)

(This is the most I’m expecting grid batteries to be worth, to be honest)

#solar #GridBattery

Update: these links do indeed lead to the Engie website, which is in fact my gas energy provider (secondary energy, next to electricity)

Ok the last two seconds are incredible

The app reload is great 🤣

(The next reload gave up)

Ok that’s a tad scary
The other day, right after the French gov announced they were going to forego anything US in our technical systems, I started writing a draft of a post here

But I got interrupted a bunch of times, switching back and forth between apps on my iPhone, and Mastodon (glitch-soc fork) gave up, eventually reloaded/reset my draft and that was that…

But today I got this starter screen on YouTube, also on my iPhone, and I find that incredible/scary

The intent of my cancelled post was that, as a heat pump owner, and not really an early adopter at that, I’m kinda annoyed that there was no financial incentive for me beyond the initial investment: my yearly contract and options are not (financially) better now, and in fact they are slightly worse

But here in this screenshot we have a clear ad to the contrary, hosted on YouTube (which I didn’t consult for this journey), and presumably by my secondary energy provider

… which happens to be my gas provider (not electricity), and the one energy that I’m trying to get rid of, so that’s manifold-ly weird
