hi, it probably wasn't this list b/c it's not a the kind you can use to block/mute (it's a user list I've been using to keep track of why someone's been muted, afaik no one else uses it)
but I didn't even have ˚ʚ Belle ɞ˚ muted - maybe she just liked a post I put through blockenheimer a while ago?

that's the thing, there's no viable alternative to ff right now. doesn't mean I wouldn't be glad to shine a spotlight on whoever's slamming this stuff in! or to see that they're removed from whatever firefox-involved position gives them the opportunity to do this. or to lobby for preventative policy

altman fired, china overbuilt, or fucking firefox (for firefox specifically who is pushing the "AI" things, how they're in a decision making position, and any efforts/avenues to remove them)

There is a quasi-religion in Silicon Valley that views AI as godlike. This faith has always been parallel to Evangelical Christianity: salvation (transhumanism), the rapture (the technological singularity), and demons (Roko's Basilisk)
Lately the AI faith has fully fused with Christian Nationalism.

either fedora (it's the community version of red hat, not a "m'lady reference") or ubuntu are fine, rollo has prebuilt packages for each of them so that will probably be easiest. do not think it's worth the extra hassle diy'ing a rollo driver install on another linux gender
(avoid snaps on ubuntu 💀)

“Not only is it not opt-in, but you can’t effectively opt out if it starts uploading metadata about your photos before you even use the search feature. It does this even if you’ve already opted out of uploading your photos to iCloud.”
vs the "rage of users" who've been waiting on this feature? c'mon

that's a load-bearing "obviously true"

defending a contentious tech with ‘both sides’ arguments while admitting that you're ignoring major real world harms caused by it because your reply is “already far too long”? of course that’s provocative. “it’s not meant to be” when these are your only posts on the platform so far?
c’mon

given the "AI" hype cycle’s record of misrepresentation and cynical abuses, any tool of this sort needs to be thoroughly evaluated before it can be ethically used in any serious work. if the tool can’t be understood, it can't be vetted, so there's no way it can be used ethically

As long as Soon-Shiong owns the Los Angeles Times, the newspaper cannot be considered a legitimate news source worthy of trust and subscriptions.

this is embarrassing, well educated people in a position of trust should know better than to abuse the "AI" hype cycle with wild claims like this
if you're an educator and you use this in your own coursework, you're betraying your students' education! believing in magic robot TAs is ludicrous

‘building an AI system to control an entire decision pipeline, possibly without human intervention, “isn’t happening” and that “there are explicit US policies that would prevent it.” ’
maybe, I'm just spitballing here, leading a miltech company named after something from LOTR attracts bent weirdos

Insane to not include the name of the Embodied CEO who made the Moxie Robot (Paolo Pirjanian), or that he was the CTO at iRobot. These are all meaningful details and these people who do these things need their names welded to these stories

And to those of us who have been aware of the cluster of people originally centred around weird cult leader Eliezer Yudkowsky, people who get referred to as "rationalists", "TPOT", "TESCREALists" and half a dozen other names, this seemingly odd combination is just "oh, he's another THAT guy, right".

The frustration with Casey Newton isn't just that he has now shilled for three hype cycles - it's that he is fully capable of the meaningful work that this moment in tech history requires. He chooses to do this voluntarily.

i have often been asked how to solve race conditions
and when i explain that the solution is to make all the implicitly ordered things explicitly ordered, along with making the mostly deterministic code actually deterministic, people look at me like i've told them to eat their vegetables
