Unglaublich. Die EU knickt vor Trump ein statt die eigene Gesetze durchzusetzen die zum Schutz der Europäischen Bürger und Unternehmen eingeführt wurden.

Big Tech-Regulierung: EU-Kommission beugt sich Druck von Trump

Es ist absurd und gefährlich: Die USA sollen zukünftig mitreden dürfen, wie wir in der EU den Digital Markets Act gegen marktdominante Big Tech-Konzerne durchsetzen wollen. Man gründet jetzt einen Arbeitskreis, um gemeinsam darüber zu sprechen. Die Durchsetzung wird also in die Zukunft verschoben. Das berichtet das Handelsblatt. Die EU-Kommission,

This week, #JeffBezos is throwing a $11 million wedding in Venice. While he splurges on luxury…
🔥 Heatwaves are devastating continents
🌾 Families can’t afford food or rent
🌍 Millions are being displaced by climate chaos
This isn’t just excess, it’s injustice.👇

New instance, new #introduction !

Hi #fediverse ! We’re the European Southern Observatory, and we design, build and operate ground-based telescopes.

One of them is our Extremely Large Telescope, currently under construction in #Chile. It will have a 39 m mirror, and its rotating enclosure will weigh 6100 tonnes, or about 700 mastodons!

We’re looking forward to chatting with all of you about #astronomy

And many thanks to @sebinthestars for running our former instance!

Gerade spricht @SemAntiKast auf der #BiblioCon25 über sozial-ökologische Auswirkungen von Large-Scale AI #LLMs und Wege zu einer klima- und sozialverträglichen Nutzung von Künstlicher Intelligenz. Ein zentraler Gegenwurf ist auf der Folie im Foto zu sehen. #KI #GenerativeKI #bid25 #BibliothekenEntschlossenDemokratisch
Hier übrigens noch die Strichliste zu dem Veranstaltungsblock "KI + Veränderung" gerade eben auf der #BiblioCon25. Kann gerne zu Forschungszwecken verwendet werden.

Instagram collects scary amounts of your data 🫣 Mastodon on the other hand - None! ✅

What do we learn? There are great services available that do not abuse your data.

Ich hab mich auf den #bibliocon25 Beitrag von @SemAntiKast zur klima- und sozialverträglichen Nutzung von #KI gefreut: Die Auswirkungen werden sehr gut nachvollziehbar gemacht: Fürs Generieren einer 100-Wort-Mail könnte das eigene Smartphone 7x geladen werden. Eine Unterhaltung mit einem KI-Chatbot verbraucht schnell 2 Liter Wasser. Natürlich zahlen wir auch persönlich mit Daten und Privatsphäre. Also: Eigene KI-Nutzung reflektieren und als #Bibliothek fürs Thema sensibilisieren.

PSA: Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr., so Scientific American published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new administration.

Dear @creativecommons ,

I read your article about your initiative for new licenses for dataset holders in the AI industry.

Let’s be clear: I do not want to re-license my hundreds of CC-By comic pages to please AI giants.

I wish you would support CC artists suffering from massive plagiarism. You should enforce your own existing licenses against AI mass crawling. It seems you’ve joined the battle only after the casualties and still managed to side with the wrong people.

The reason this zine is called "The Secret Rules of the Terminal" is that I learned more useful things while writing this zine than when writing any other zine, even though I've been using the terminal every day for 20 years.

It really left me feeling like the terminal is full of hidden secrets -- because "the terminal" is made up of so many different pieces, there's no single terminal manual you can read!

Here's the table of contents (which as a bonus shows the components of the terminal!)

@b0rk I've used the terminal for a long time too and know quite a few of its secrets, but back when you did the (a?) survey a while back I went to answer it fully expecting to learn some new secrets and was happy to indeed learn.
@b0rk purchased. Thank you for your hard work on this!
@b0rk congrats on the zine. Can't wait to read!
@b0rk it looks so cool 😎
