FYI you have a typo in your last screenshot (This sign m[a]y not...):

I don't know if there is any single takeaway here, this story is just fucking ridiculous on every single level.

1. They bullshited themselves into a search warrant based on typical cannabis "investigation methods".
2. In a state where recreational cannabis use is legal.
3. Persisted in the search even after their main argument for it, high energy usage indicating a grow-op, fell away when it was clear it was indeed a medical facility.
4. Made the motherfucking "Gun flies to MRI" TV trope a certified reality. This is a thing that verifiably happened now.
5. Instead of getting help, used a sealed (!) emergency shutdown button...
6. ...which damaged the machine. And released thousands of dollars worth of helium gas.
7. Forgot their loaded magazine on the ground.

This can't be real. I'm fucking dying over here. Please let there be bodycam footage of the cop speaking in a high pitched voice after. (I know the helium was probably not released into the room, but one can hope I guess)

That image choice though.

I see what you did there Ernestas.

First I heard of this, but since it seems to be just some software that runs on the hardware of car manufacturers it seems rather unlikely. But very theoretically possible, if the car manufacturer was using default process scheduling in a CPU constrained machine and now switches to real-time scheduling in an update. But that was possible for years before this news, the code has just been mainlined to the default kernel now. If the car manufacturer cared about that they would probably have done it already with a patched kernel.

And further from that, maybe if Youtube's Chief Enshittification Officer is against it then taking 23andme private might actually be the best thing to do?

And it keeps getting worse. Basically the whole base plus some forests and residential areas seem to be burning.

I think these are satellite measurements that accumulate over 24 hours though, so not sure if the image reflects the current situation well.

Link to the NASA map btw if anybody wants to check it out

Nö, nix verstanden du hast, alles nochmal lesen du vielleicht solltest.

Also ich habe dir eine ziemlich direkte Frage gestellt wie du dazu stehst. Wenn du mir dann mit so einer lavierenden nicht-Antwort um die Ecke kommst... irre ich lieber auf der Seite der Vorsicht.

Thema Einwanderung, von wo sollen die denn einwandern? Aus armen Ländern etwa? Jo, lass uns die gebildeten und lernwilligen Leute abwerben.

Die kommen sowieso, da müssen wir nichts mehr für machen außer die mit offenen Armen willkommen zu heißen. Die Konservativen heulen deswegen doch seit Jahren rum und wollen hier einen auf Festung Europa machen stattdessen. Werden auch nicht weniger werden in Zukunft wenn der Klimawandel erst mal richtig Fahrt aufnimmt.

Because bee stingers are mostly used against other insects. They don't get stuck in a chitin exoskeleton, only in the more flexible skin tissue of mammals. In insects the barbs instead pull out soft tissue from inside, thus making them more lethal (to the bees victim).

Ist eine Wanderausstellung:

In den vergangenen Monaten wurde die Schau bereits an mehreren Orten gezeigt, etwa in Kirchen, in einer Schule, in der Chemnitzer Arbeitsagentur und im Sächsischen Landtag. Nun war als nächste Station Pirna geplant.

Das Zitat ist mir auch sauer aufgestoßen. Was für "positives Feedback" haben die denn erwartet? Das irgendwer das geil findet wenn unsere Polizei nach Hautfarbe aussucht?

Aber naja, wen wundert es mit einem Drittel AfD im Stadtrat...

Ok, du willst also die Menschenrechte abschaffen. Verstanden.

Übrigens, gibt noch eine "Stellschraube" die du vergessen hast, nennt sich Einwanderung.

Der demographische Wandel ist überall auf der Welt ein Problem wo es Menschen gutgeht, sie Zugang zu Bildung haben und Frauen Rechte haben.

Das sind die Punkte wo du ansetzen musst wenn die das Problem beheben willst. [...]

Sozialleistungen gegen Kinder machen wird nur ausgenutzt führt aber nicht zu eine spürbaren Steigerung der Geburtenrate bei den Gruppen die nicht unter die drei oben genannten Einschränkungen fallen.

Nur damit ich das richtig verstehe... Du sagst also wir sollten dafür sorgen das es Menschen schlecht geht, sie ungebildet sind, und Frauen keine Rechte haben?! Bitte sage mir das ich dich falsch verstanden habe!

You thought it was AI, but she just has ulnar polydactyly. How do I know this is ulnar instead of radial or central polydactyly? The wedding ring, it's on the ring finger.

(/s of course, this is obviously AI. But yeah people with extra fingers do in fact exist. They or the parents often cut away the extra finger for cosmetic reasons.)

The attempts to onshore chip production, for instance, have mostly just been gobbled up by AI compute.

But that leaves an existing chip industry to be nationalised if needed, having an ongoing hype around AI just helps keeping the necessary investment down.

That has some military uses (see: Israel) but it’s ultimately a boondoggle.

If you are talking about Lavender that's hardly a military use. They basically built an elaborate RNG as an ethical fig leaf for their indiscriminate bombing and called it "AI" to gain credibility from the ongoing hype cycle. That's more of a political use than a military one I would say. They must know I hope they know it's bullshit, so then the only realistic use-case left is justification of their actions towards the growing number of AI believers.

I always select the driver on purpose. My reasoning is that this training data will probably be used for AI by insurance companies in the future and this will help to classify drivers as an insured asset that automatic systems will avoid damaging.

I will keep on updating so that this remains as a proof of the crime which is happening against me .

Bro no offence but it seems the only thing you documented here is your slow descent into madness. If your complaint to the Irish police sounded anything like this post read I'm not surprised they got mental health services involved, because frankly, you sound unhinged.

I mean black magic? Really? That's paranoia levels of absurd. And a global conspiracy out to get you specifically wherever you move on top of that? Hate to break it to you, but we live in an indifferent world. Keeping such a conspiracy going would be a lot of effort, and it is rather unlikely that anybody gives that much of a shit about you.

Since you probably wouldn't just believe a medical professional on this anyway (you'd explain them away as part of the conspiracy, as you already did in this post with the Irish) please get the DSM and see if you can self-diagnose for Paranoid Personality Disorder. Judging from this post you seem to fit the definition like a hand fits into a glove.

If you don't see it on the first read give it a second one with the assumption in mind that your perception of what has happened is wrong.

They never saw the message, they saw anon disconnecting, anon saw them disconnecting. Behind the scenes Blizzard made them shadow-ban each other, they will never share the same server shard again. Both sides think they won and Blizzard will continue taking money from both. /conspiracy

I'll have you know that this is famous sci-fi author Charles David George Stross posting an excerpt from his seminal novel Don't Create The Torment Nexus. The warning is right in the title, I'm sure nobody will be dumb enough to ignore it!

[...] a public institution is really not a great example of the general population [...]

Which I touched upon in my disclaimer, but in some ways it is a great example. Public institutions are defined by the general population, indirectly through their representatives creating the rules that govern them, and directly through contact with the public at large. Now if all our institutions still use this very outdated technology, and you can have trouble convincing them - during a global pandemic mind you - that using email is just as safe as using fax (so not safe at all basically), then that speaks to a larger mindset in the general population.

Many in the general public are also a lot quicker, some might even say careless, with adopting new technology of course. But as a society we are rather slow, and there are surprisingly many individuals who are hesitant or entirely resistant to adopting new technology. The fediverse usage is a bubble in a bubble here.

The internet infrastructure is another good example for this on the societal level, as there were plans in the 1980ies [!] to lay out a glass fibre network between every publicly used building in the country, which would have gotten us a good part of the way towards adopting this new material at scale. But in the end it was deemed unnecessary and too expensive and the project got canned (mixed in with rumours of "close friendship" between the chancellor and a major copper producer). Instead now we have people running around thirty years later and collecting signatures at the door for last-mile fibre network projects that seldom make quorum and thus almost never materialise public funding.
