Personally I prefer the 2005 website. Though to get the best experience, you have to be on a desktop at 1024x768.

Whoa, now we have real spammers on the Fediverse. They tag random people and spam them via DM. What's the instance? Mastodon.social of course, Rocko's fucking twitter.

Not only is Mastodon toxic, but also it has become a carrier of all the diseases centralized media are suffering from.

Saw this last night and, honestly it keeps coming back into my head. What, the fsck, was "google standing up against" and what possible charm could a corporation that farms humans have?

"Don't be evil" died decades ago and was only a thing for about five minutes, dude.

Apparently my complaints lead this announcement:

They are developing local “AI” features and they said they are focusing on that, but they just published the code of OpenAI integration on feat/ai-lab branch atm.

The number of people that proposed to "integrate ChatGPT into KDE" with absolutely no detail on how that would look like and what problem it would solve is too damn high

@EU_Commission That is ok as long as it is an option, I want my paper documents. You're attempting to digitalise far more than you can handle and secure: ID, passport, drivers license, health records... too much, too dangerous, too centralize.

Eu commission: "we want digital travel documents."
Mastodon community: "yeah, nice!"

I thought we would know better. 😞

@quincy There's nothing else to expect from this @EU_Commission - just look up how they treat even the parliamentary when it comes to criticism of f.e. #Chatcontrol. They sure love the idea of the european total surveillance state, damn everyone stating those pesky "facts" or "citizen rights".

I can only hope the decay of the US serves as some kind of wakeup call to them, otherwise we as citizens are royally fucked.

I've taken part in a number of those pseudo-consultations regarding e-government or digital politics. The proposals to be commented never failed to "disappoint", always had a deeply Orwellian component.

And by now I know for sure that the "consultation" process isn't serious.

No amount of well-founded criticism from the public has had any impact whatsoever on those bandwagons.

The only effect is that the objections are there for all to see, for posterity maybe.

@EU_Commission

Great, another "have your say" on some piece of #Orwell'ian shit legislation, to pretend the public has been "consulted" in a show of democracy ...

I saw someone point out today that to a French speaker “ChatGPT” reads like “Cat, I farted” (« Chat, j’ai pété ») and now that is what I am going to think of every time I see it mentioned.
