@madrobotblog Yeah, but who would they tap for CEO?

Oh look

@stux Hack Nazis.
Make "faith"-based movies that are genuinely funny and people swear a lot. I dare you. Like literally nothing is stopping you other than your weird hangups. The fucking POPE went to Bulls and Chisox games, you think that guy didn't yell some vulgar shit at refs or Ron Artest?
I'll argue that Knives Out 3 (Wake Up, Deadman) is the best faith-based movie in a long time.
"I keep coming back to this graph because it’s so eye-popping, almost impossible to believe. As you see in the legend, the blue line is data centers. The grey line is everything else. Everything else. Commercial properties. Rental properties. Single family homes. Multiple family homes. Pick your preferred flavor of development, NIMBY, YIMBY, urban, rural, it’s in there. You basically have rapid data center growth and everything else contracting."
Testing cross-posting from a new thing. Hopefully it works!

why doesn't the ceo of anthropic just ask claude to make the company profitable

Fediverse
TIL the fediverse basically DDOS's sites when you share a link.
I shared a link from NPR Tiny Desk but there was no image preview or video embed. After investigating this I learned that when you do that, each instance picks up the link and individually retrieves the link preview nearly simultaneously. For gargantuan sites like YT or Reddit, this is a trivial amount of traffic and not a problem, but for smaller sites like NPR this results in a sort of botnet DDOS attack on the site’s servers. More here. Another example here . For that reason, NPR has blocked Fediverse servers like Mastodon.
I have experienced this on my personal server as well (DDOS), but at the time didn’t know why, exactly.
This isn’t the end of the world, but certainly is not great and hurts engagement with the content. Is there a solution for this? Perhaps using some sort of webtorrent service like PeerTube where they just fetch the information from another fediverse server instead of the source server? Maybe fetching embeds client-side? At least that would stagger the requests.

And as a completely petty self-centred whinge:
I absolutely resent how much fucking time this debacle has forced me to spend on FB/Insta because those godsforsaken digital holes are the only place I can get any kind of documentable response from the organisations involved and I’m one of the the only firsthand witnesses to the clusterfuck who is knowledgeable enough on the topic to push back against their deflections.
Fuck.
@mycrowgirl I am sorry for the shitty icing on this shitty cake. This is all truly awful :(
While I was in Kirton’s shop, a fellow came to offer kindness or force to my wife in the coach, but she refusing, he went away, after the coachman had struck him, and he the coachman.
@samuelpepys What a bunch of babies, having a slap fight in the street.
Turboradikalisierung. Da gibts nix mehr zu deuten. Keine Codes. Nix. Er sagt es einfach ganz offen: Dass er der wirkmächtigsten modernen rechtsextremen Verschwörungsideologie anhängt. Auf die sich viele Rechtsterroristen berufen. Und Staatschefs & Abgeordnete & Medien posten da noch. Wild.
@kattascha ich wollte hier was Sarkastisches antworten, aber es wirkt alles hohl und überhaupt nicht witzig im Kontext damit, dass Musk jetzt offen vom großen Austausch spricht.
Als etwas bereits geschehenes, und damit effektiv Leute im eigenen Land als Feind markiert.
A new survey of 5,200 adults from the Public Religion Research Institute says that 43% of Republicans and 54% of white evangelicals think “empathy can become dangerous when it leads people away from building a society guided by God’s truth.” Here's more from Religion News.
I can't read it. It hurts when I bang my head on the wall. Interesting that they chose to say that bit out loud.
