아니 크기 큰 건 알겠는데... ㄹㅇ 이정도 가격이 나오는 게 맞음...?? 아니 걍 모델링 괜찮은 거 가져다 3D 프린터로 뽑아서 부품 조립한 뒤에 색칠하면 되는 거 아님...?? 그냥 모델러 100만원 프린터 및 재료비 100만원 색칠해주는 사람 100만원 써서 직접 만드는 게 훨씬 쌀 것 같은데 내가 걍 알못이라 그런가...

Anthropomorphizing the technology is just one more way humans try to escape accountability. “The AI contributed a patch”, “the AI wrote the blog post”, “the car hit the pedestrian” and “the knife killed the victim”, those are all the same framing.

The war waged by the tech authoritarian oligarchy against the media has reached a new level:

#Palantir is suing us. Us, the Republik Magazin.

A small Swiss media company, funded by readers, founded in 2018 and free of advertising. I am not aware of any other media company globally that Palantir is currently targeting so aggressively.

What is this about? Together with my wonderful colleagues at the WAV research collective Jenny Steiner, Lorenz Naegeli, Marguerite Meyer, and Balz Oertli, we published a two-part series on Palantir's activities in Switzerland on December 8 and 9.

Using an extensive corpus of documents – which we obtained thanks to the Freedom of Information Act – we were able to trace a sales campaign over a period of seven years. Palantir tried to get in with many federal authorities – and was rejected everywhere.

And we also found out that the Swiss Army Staff evaluated the products and came to the conclusion that the army should refrain from using Palantir products.

Among other risks, they feared that data would be passed on to the US authorities.

Palantir is not just any company. ICE uses its products to hunt down migrants in the US. The Israeli army IDF uses the software in its Gaza offensive. The British health authority NHS has made itself dependent on the products for data analysis during the pandemic. And CEO #AlexKarp displays inhuman and aggressive rhetoric towards Europe, while the company itself advertises the “optimization of the kill chain.”

These are all facts, repeatedly verified and published by renowned media outlets. Our research relating to Switzerland and Zurich is based on this.

In addition to analyzing documents, we also spoke to various sources – including Palantir executives here in Zurich. The quotes used were presented to them and approved. Of course, we always adhered to the high standards of journalistic work. We conducted a thorough fact check before publication.

But the company doesn't want us to write the truth.

After the US company owned by right-wing tech billionaire #PeterThiel dedicated an absurd blog post to us, claiming some misinformation (such as that they had not participated in official tenders with the federal administration, a point we never claimed. On the contrary: we spoke from the outset of attempts to establish contact, sales talks, informal meetings, business as usual), after the Global Director of Privacy & Civil Liberties (PCL) Engineering and contact person for Swiss media Courtney Bowman launched personal attacks against us in LinkedIn comments between Christmas and New Year (“partisan fear-mongering”), Palantir's Swiss lawyers demanded a counterstatement on December 29.

We rejected this demand in its entirety.

In January, they demanded the same thing again. We rejected it again.

And now we see each other in court.

But why all this?

Our research on the Swiss army report caused a huge international media response. The Guardian and the Austrian newspaper Der Standard reported on the Swiss army's rejection. Numerous financial portals and stock market magazines picked up our news (which could have consequences for the overvalued stock market company Palantir).

And Chaos Computer Club spokesperson Constanze Kurz presented our research to a huge audience at the renowned IT conference Chaos Communication Congress in Hamburg at the end of December.

All of this is making Palantir nervous.

We have now submitted a comprehensive defense brief. We can substantiate all of our findings with several documents and publicly available media reports.

We trust in the rule of law and freedom of the press in this country.

In keeping with yesterday's event “Zurich, little Big Tech City” at the Gessneralle, where we first announced this news exclusively to the audience on site:

World politics will soon be negotiated in Zurich: freedom of the press, the facts about ICE, Trump, Israel, Karp, tech authoritarianism.

The truth.

All this at the Zurich Commercial Court.

We will not be intimidated. And we will keep you informed.

There were things in my life that I would put off doing/changing for whatever reasons, so I would live for a long time with imperfection and feeling disgruntled, and when I finally did make that change, life improves significantly. And then I would blame myself for not doing it sooner and really wished I did it long time ago.

Does this happen to you too?

I'm not even talking about big changes like new life direction kind of thing, but trivial like: replace that damn light bulb inside the oven

No single post in this thread will prepare you for the next post in this thread. I'm beginning to think that tools like OpenClaw are professional malpractice and should be outright banned from civil society.

Abend Nummer 4 des aktuellen Updates des Backends eines Clusters. Ich hatte vor 2 Stunden auch noch einen 4. Kaffee damit alles gut geht. Wenn alles gut geht sind wir dann soweit wie wir Mitte Dezember sein wollten.

Nächste Woche kommt noch das Frontend dran, das macht ein Kollege, und dann können wir direkt anfangen das nächste Update zu planen weil in den 3 Monaten ist längst die nächste Version heraus gekommen.

A while back @wezWez Furlong turned me on to Oxygen Not Included. It's a side view base building game I guess.

I'm really enjoying it. Steam tells me I have 60 hours in it.

I don't usually like games where you should probably watch a YouTube video or two to progress. But it's absolutely helpful here, but the game doesn't feel lacking because of it.

+1 do recommend

"President Trump’s job approval is 34 points underwater among young men, with 32% approving and 66% disapproving of his performance in office.

A paltry 26% of young men would back a J.D. Vance presidential run in the 2028 general election, with 55% opposing and 17% unsure.

A 61% supermajority of young men say Trump is not fulfilling his campaign promise to put America first, including 25% of young Republican men and 64% of Independents."

Do you find yourself in the position where you just bought a piece of server kit (new or used) and you do not know what the IPMI password is, and you don't have a OS/screen to reset it, or it's set to some static IP that you don't know?

Please enjoy this small (70MB) image you can put on a USB stick and blindly boot the machine into, assuming the USB boots, it will set the IPMI to a known value, and set the network back to "normal" values (no VLAN and DHCP)

Enjoy! (and report back if you find it worked on things not already confirmed in the readme)

The International Olympic Committee expels Ukrainian Vladylsav Heraskevych from The Winter Olympics' skeleton sled competition for wearing a helmet picturing Ukrainian athletes who have been killed by Russia.

I really wish every athlete would just leave the games, so we could see the IOC crying "No, wait! Come back! We did not mean it!"
