In the past day I have learned that demand for AI data centers has been cited as the cause of significant increases in cost for the Brightline West high-speed train route between LA and Las Vegas because the big construction companies are busy building data centers and also the Steam Machine/Frame from Valve because AI data centers are eating up all of the RAM. Fuck AI, I want personal computers and trains!

My son was playing a game last night and observed an NPC doing something weird. I said that their AI probably wasn't too complicated because they were meant to be in the background.

He immediately understood this to mean that some LLM was controlling the character, which in his mind naturally explained why it was acting dumb. 😂

網友 Mapleflower 🌱 COMMS OPEN @MapleflowerVT 提到交往時的甜蜜。

---
跟女生交往,有時候就代表著你會突然收到一則訊息,內容像是:「我最近真的很喜歡綠花椰菜。」毫無前因後果。

而你必須以這輩子最重要、最讓你開心的心情來回應這則訊息。這一點,至關重要。

20대도 아니고 한참 자라는 애들한테 프레임 씌워서 적대시 하면 뭐가 이득이 되길래 그렇게 우경화우경화 거려? 애들이랑 소통하고 길 잘 잡아주면 되지 지들처럼 뇌 굳은 줄 아나 "요즘 것들은 버릇이 없다" → 수천년을 이어 내려온 틀에 박힌 개소리고 좀 바리에이션 준다고 아닌 거 아니니까 그만 찡찡대고 잘 좀 기르세요

New in PN: Lower courts can't fix what's broken in Minnesota

"Judge Menendez’s decision isn’t a failure of will. It’s a result of a world where conservatives on the nation’s highest court have decided their job is to help President Trump achieve a desired result, law and procedure be damned." publicnotice.co/p/judge-menend

Democracy? What Democracy? It's all about the old mighty cold dollar... ->

"When the World Wide Web went live in the early 1990s, its founders hoped it would be a space for anyone to share information and collaborate. But today, the free and open web is shrinking.

The Internet Archive has been recording the history of the internet and making it available to the public through its Wayback Machine since 1996. Now, some of the world’s biggest news outlets are blocking the archive’s access to their pages.

Major publishers – including The Guardian, The New York Times, the Financial Times, and USA Today – have confirmed they’re ending the Internet Archive’s access to their content.

While publishers say they support the archive’s preservation mission, they argue unrestricted access creates unintended consequences, exposing journalism to AI crawlers and members of the public trying to skirt their paywalls.

Yet, publishers don’t simply want to lock out AI crawlers. Rather, they want to sell their content to data-hungry tech companies. Their back catalogues of news, books and other media have become a hot commodity as data to train AI systems.

I was thinking about how strange it is that the cupboard in a bathroom is called a "vanity unit", and then I got to thinking, what if all your furniture was named after the seven deadly sins?

* Bathroom cupboard = vanity unit
* Paid-work office = avarice unit
* Computer gaming station = anger unit
* Device running social media = envy unit
* Bed = lust unit
* Induction hob = gluttony unit
* Sofa = sloth unit

Someone at reached out to me about a organization that takes care of the logistics of hosting conferences? I.e. venue, ticketing and catering. And it was free for open source projects.

I remember Munich, London and Paris(?) as possible locations?

Sounded great. Forgot their name. Does anyone know?

Boost appreciated!

Do any moots know someone who we might be able to consult about restructuring a mid-size FOSS project? Essentially to migrate from a BDFL model to a more flat-structured democratic organisation.

We are discussing how to restructure so that it can continue to scale up and be a truly community-run project.

We have some idea of how co-ops like Igalia do this, but we have a lot of differences (like being largely volunteer run and having very different goals) which leave us with a lot of unknowns.

To give an example of the kind of structure we're thinking of (by no means final, there hasn't been any broad agreement on a new structure yet):

We have the relevant pieces in place to form an assembly (everyone listed on postmarketos.org/team/ ) which could then democratically form teams and delegate responsibilities to them (e.g. finance/budget, technical policy-making, maintainers for various OS components).

The assembly would then also be responsible for deciding on focus areas and long term goals for the project (e.g. improving reliability, building a production-ready immutable version of the distro)

We could then form working groups to enable cross-team collaboration to move towards our specific goals.

Currently we lack a lot of understanding of the potential implications of something like this, how we can ensure the project doesn't get hijacked, that we don't drift too far from our mission statement, etc etc...

If you have a background in sociology and/or relevant experience from other projects then I would love to reach out and be able to discuss this in more detail!

우리 주변의 극우 친구들은 앞으로 평생 볼 사이다. 그리고 무엇보다 비율이 너무 높다. 그들을 단절하면 당장 같이 놀 사람도 없다! 실제 교실에 있다 보면 각자의 신념을 굽히고 들어갈 일도 생긴다. 〈토끼풀〉 기자들도 노무현 드립과 ‘드럼통’ 밈에 때로는 웃어준다. 형태를 유지하는 선 안에서 유연해져야 한다고 생각한다. 〈극우 유튜브에서 아들을 구출해 왔다〉와 같은 책 제목이 화제를 끄는 세상이지만, 우리는 ‘훈육’과 ‘구출’의 대상이 아니다. www.sisain.co.kr/news/article... 정말 어렵다.
