tRump just gifted 1.4 MILLION acres of OUR protected public land in Alaska to the state for mining & drilling.

50 years of protections erased in 75 days. No vote. No tribal input.

Wildlife corridor is gone. Park & three refuges are now ecological islands

Corporate greed wins again.

The United States: The country where half the states passed hundreds — literally hundreds — of bills restricting transgender citizens because they’re in season but only one has succeeded so far in restricting data centres chewing up the planet we live on.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

Tomorrow (Friday) the last day to make an official stand against a fuckwit billionaire filling the sky with hundreds of thousands of AI datacenters and destroying the ozone layer.

Nearby Glasses is here to warn you when smart glasses are nearby.

I hope it's useful for someone.

The app is now open source (AGPL-3.0), the app is free and rather simple

It's also downloadable outside the Play Store. iOS port is in the making. F-Droid is an option, will have to look into that

So, Proton released Lumo. They are calling it AI that respects your privacy. Not sure how I feel about this. I generally do not like to call LLMs intelligent and I don’t want an LLM as a feature in a company that focuses on privacy. I would love the opinions of those of you who understand this better than I do.

“The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.

To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.

To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”
