I’d appreciate it if everyone could just stop burning fossil fuels, please. Thank you for your cooperation.

Such power. The world will tremble before my mighty ability to salivate.
Hooray! Encryption for everyone Encryption for client-side encryption (CSE) users with Enterprise Plus licenses and the Assured Controls or Assured Controls Plus add-on after admins enable the Android and iOS clients in the CSE admin interface who remember to turn on “additional encryption” option when sending an email.
No mention as to whether it follows any standards or is interoperable with anything else in the world.
Given enough time and research it won’t be too many more years before they’re ready for production use. Of course that use will probably be mass surveillance and suppression of dissent.
Yeah, I was somewhat dismayed to see Little Snitch getting so much attention on mastodon despite it not being free software. I don’t see the appeal.
OpenSnitch does the job quite well. Things in debian are mostly well-behaved, but it’s caught quite a few games running under wine that were up to no good.
It’s gambling all the way through, but sure enough there’s some amount of information to be found in the way people are betting.
As I understand it, the psychology of other participants does come into it in much the same way it does in a poker game or the stock market. One doesn’t strictly bet on the outcome of events — in all such markets that I heard about positions can be taken up and then sold for profit as opinion shifts, before the predictions are ever constrained by actual outcomes.
The goal of “prediction” markets is to make money for the people who operate them. But sometimes they’re right anyway.
Can we get some Liberals crossing to the NDP please? There have got to be at least two or three of them capable of understanding that it’s the right thing to do for the political life of the country.
True, but the lack of an appropriate amount of negativity from the chatbots is one reason some people prefer humans over LLMs.
You wouldn’t be tempted to rub yourself against its leg?
Far behind what, exactly? This question arising from the headline isn’t answered in the article except by saying it’s far behind what the most hawkish war nerds they could find would like to see. The CBC here simply repeats uncritically everything they are told, including that we are already at war with China, and calls it news.
Because it’s AI, haven’t you heard? Does it make sense for the business? Who cares, it’s AI. Is it financially sustainable? Dude, it’s AI though. Will there be any customers for any of it? The AI says there will be. You’ve got to understand, this is AI we’re talking about. It’s the AI revolution that will transform the world. We’ve got to bet everything on the AI, or we’ll be left out of the AI future. I asked the AI and it was very clear about that.
changes introduced in the 2025 federal budget granting Ottawa explicit authority to disband organizations designated as “terrorist entities.”
It seemed inevitable that if that legislation was ever used, it would be abused. I’m not a lawyer, but I’m pretty sure that participating in terrorism was already illegal, and so this can serve only to harass people who are not doing so. Sure enough it appears to be the case — although if they have credible evidence to the contrary I’d like to see it.
That they snuck it in through the budget document is adding insult to injury. This new government has repeatedly shown complete indifference to the principles of good government that made Canada what it was.
The type of RAM that they use is different in that it takes up even more of all the things that would otherwise be used to produce the RAM that you use.
In the good old days of Usenet you could’ve found like-minded people on alt.destroy.the.multiverse.
Philosophers have reasoned that if the universe is infinite, as it appears to some that it might be, then every permutation of all possible configurations of matter and energy will occur infinitely many times. Therefore, everything that happens now will have happened before, and will happen again.
It was a while ago so they might’ve fixed it by now, but I remember the problem being that notifications didn’t always come through.
