The right wing think tank "Manhattan Institute", is in the midst of a yearlong campaign to pass state-level legislation
reclassifying minor crimes like vandalism, blocking a roadway, or trespassing during a protest as felonies that would carry 18-month prison sentences as punishment.
The push to criminalize forms of nonviolent disobedience as a form of terrorism comes amid a broader Trump administration effort to crack down on leftist organizations, causes, and social m…

The Manhattan Institute Helped Kill DEI. Now It’s Coming for Protests
The right-wing think tank is actively pushing “civil terrorism”—increasing penalties for minor crimes committed while people engage in constitutionally protected free speech.

Some people are born heroic - others have heroism thrust upon them. I didn't wake up this morning and decide that I was going to be a hero, but then again, that's kinda what heroes do. They wake up and then end up doing some heroic shit.

The image is a dark, textured background resembling a digital interface or screen. On the left side, a realistic, golden trophy with two handles and a rectangular base is prominently displayed. The trophy has a warm, metallic sheen and appears to be standing on a light brown rectangular platform. Below the trophy, the word "Now" is faintly visible in a light gray, sans-serif font. On the right side of the image, a bright blue rectangular speech bubble is positioned in the upper right quadrant.…

Кумедно.
Я думав, катари-"ножиці" це чисто вигадка Блізів. А зараз читаю — виявляється, що ні. Менш розповсюджений варіант, але реальний. Тільки вони "розкривалися" не перед ударом, а після. Як експансивна куля.
Національна зброя менш попсових культур здатна принести цікавий вайб у геймдизайн. Особливо якщо втілюється не поверхнево.

A digital illustration of an assassin from Diablo 2 in dark armor, posing dynamically against a black background. She has dark tanned skin and dark hair, wearing ornate dark-colored armor with gold trim on the chest, legs, and boots. She is holding two katar blades, surrounded by bright blue energy and lightning effects, outstretched to the top right in a challenging pose. Additional sheathed weapons are attached to a belt around the waist. The character's midriff is visible between the upper a…
A split-view image against a black background shows two different ornamental metal objects. On the left, a single Indian dagger called "Katar" features a pointed steel blade and an ornate gold handle composed of several horizontal bars. The handle includes patterned golden sections that connect to the top of the blade. On the right, three pointed steel blades emerge from a wide, decorative base. This base is covered in intricate, gold-colored patterns.

UnHerd magazine, a hard-right magazine funded by Paul Marshall, has no time for free speech. It has a nasty piece belittling David Attenborough. I left a comment saying that the article was typical of the hard right's miserabilist sourpussery.
The comment has been deleted -childish miserabilists!

So, @… response to one co-CEO funding far-right authoritarians:
“Hey, 50% of our CEOs _aren’t_ doing that!”
C’mon y’all, respect his private donation, he leaves those views outside the company when he’s making decisions as CEO
/s (obviously) 🤮

To be honest, the new icons are kinda better. fastcompany.com/91545582/googl
Some are no longer the circular red/green/blue/yellow rotation, though Google Maps icon still look kinda similar to Gmail's 🫠

A side-by-side design comparison of Google Workspace app icons on a split white and light-gray background. On the left are the 2020 four-color (blue, red, yellow, green) geometric icons for Google Chat and Google Meet. On the right are their updated, simplified versions: Google Chat is a solid green rounded speech bubble with a white smile accent, and Google Meet is a bright yellow-and-orange gradient video camera icon.

Großartiger Artikel von Emily Bender ("stocchic parrot") und Nanna Inie zur Frage, wie man über "KI" sprechen und gleichzeitig die Anthropomorphisierungsfalle umgehen kann:

artificial intelligence → probabilistic automation hybrid intelligence → augmented human intelligence image recognition → image labeling speech recognition → automatic transcription the model shows bias → the model reflects bias model mistakes → model errors chatbots are good at … → chatbots are good for … hallucination → undesirable output
prompt → text input answer → output chatbot / conversational agent → conversation simulator
ChatGPT assisted students → the students used ChatGPT revealing the solution → displaying the solution AI agent → probabilistic, unverified software manipulator
who’s right? → is the machine output correct? they produce results → the team uses it [the system] to produce results
