Dear people in #Gaza
I know your situation is very bad, but there are many thousands of you.
I can afford to make only three gifts each week, and those will inevitably mostly go to people I already know. So no, I almost certainly cannot support you by sending you money.
If you send me private appeals, I can't share them. I am now receiving so many private appeals that I cannot…
"The most recent orbital computations make it increasingly likely that the object [the new #Kreutz comet MAPS] is a fragment of one of the comets observed by Ammianus Marcellinus in AD 363, thereby strengthening evidence in support of the contact-binary hypothesis of the Kreutz system," writes Zdenek Sekanina in https://arxiv.org/abs/2602.17626: "In this context, the comet is the only second-generation fragment of Aristotle's comet that we are aware of to appear after the 12th century. It does not look like a major fragment, but rather like an outlying fragment of a much larger sungrazer."
Ok, actually, one more thing. There was an #OccupyICE in 2018 and it worked really well with far less support than there is now.
Ok, that's all, I'm dropping offline again. Go organize some shit!

Russia has an interest in high oil prices, it has an incentive to support the Iranian regime, in surviving and striking targets around Hormuz. It also distracts attention from their main conflict, the war with Ukraine. Also it can divide the european countries, NATO and the US further, all wins.

There used to be a Google provided cli tool that allowed you to script the uploading of videos to YouTube. (Google-CLI I think?). They pulled support a few years ago.
Two questions:
1) does anyone know of any such tools that might exist today?
2) Are there any similar tools for PeerTube?

I also think it's worth just doing the math here. There aren't enough ICE agents to remove an occupation of more than a couple of facilities. They would have to rely on local police. A lot of police departments have been ordered not to support ICE activities. This means Trump would have to activate the military. If an occupation was peaceful, especially playful like Portland, deployment may not even be possible. Meanwhile, if ICE agents continue to be as violent as they are Governors may be forced to activate the national guard to protect citizens against ICE.
Forcing conflict when Trump is at his weakest, in a way that is non-violent, puts resistance in the best possible position.
At the same time, we are at a strange time of unity. Trump supporters are leaving over Epstein, some are even mad about the deportations, and he's otherwise systematically alienated basically his whole base (except literal Nazis working for ICE).
The AI bubble is, in a lot of ways, a fun house mirror reflection of the 2008 financial crash. The whole economy is held up by loans secured with "compute." Everyone hates this, and Trump's policies have made everything far worse.
#OccupyICE could actually have a lot of momentum and be difficult to stop, especially if folks went to ICE facilities in frog suits and Luigi bloc with banners demanding the release of the Epstein files.
At least, that's my impression from out here.
The billionaire tax needs to be made THE litmus test for all Democratic candidates for office.
Corporate Democrats have been the root failure mode of the Democratic Party since at least Bill Clinton.
We must remove the corporate Democrats from power right after we remove Trump from power, or we will just get an even worse Trump in the near future.
If a candidate is not willing to support a billionaire wealth tax, then we know for sure they are a corporate Democrat and should not be elected.

'New' consumer energy resources like EVs, heat pumps, batteries can help support the local grid - if we allow them to.

Hummm. Wonder if the UK will have to support the USA invading Venezuela because it's a member of Nato?
Or if we'll just support it because we also want western oil companies to have access to those oil fields?
Or maybe we'll sanction the USA like we sanctioned Russia for their illegal invasion?
No? Why is everyone laughing?
Anyway. These days it's cool to invade other countries and kidnap their presidents to steal their oil it seems. Even though the oil needs to stay in the ground.

I truly believe that LLMs are the worst thing that happened in IT over the recent years (or well, the culmination of the worst thing that's been poisoning the IT world), and I wholeheartedly support all the subversive actions against it, ranging from poisoning the training data to abusing support chatbots to make them unprofitable. However, at the same time I realize that all these actions are increasing the environmental harm caused by the #LLM folk.
