If you ever want to shame one of these “social democrats” (communists) ask them how many AI billionaires the Soviet Union had. The answer is zero. And that’s what happens when you take from the innovators and give to the takers.

The tyranny of Zohran Mamdani using tax dollars to provide services benefitting the people paying taxes chill me to the bone and demonstrate the rank selfishness of his political project, “we pay the taxes so we should get something out of it” Self-absorbed egotism, that’s all it is.

You’ve milked your last Neutral Hotel.

There's something deliciously ironic about Ford--the assembly line innovator--having to hire back veteran engineers to fix quality problems induced by AI. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Med den nya lagstiftningen kring minska offentlig aktivitet i konkurrensutsatta verksamheter - då bör väl en liknande risk uppstå här?

it seems like a flaw in our system that we're forced to watch helplessly as obviously corrupt institutions perpetrate atrocities to which the vast majority of us are opposed

Shout out to the European Data Centre Association for saying out loud what they're working towards

Sveriges högerregering saboterar EUs klimatarbete - igen. De lyssnar på oljebolagens lobbyister och försöker försena åtgärder mot den kraftfulla växthusgasen metan. Vi behöver en ny rödgrön som sätter klimatet och minskade utsläpp främst. www.politico.eu/article/big-...

Agnes Wold har gett en 17 minuters intervju till FrihetsNytt, det högerextrema Nätverkets plattform. Nätverket promotar nazister och antisemiter, tycker att för många judar överlevde Förintelsen, och förespråkar bland annat att "utrota" Sveriges muslimer genom "koncentrationsläger och massmord".

Vi behöver Stavangers brandchef.

This was James Carville's advice to Democrats one month into Trump's second term:

“Dear migrants, before I say any other word to you, I want to bow before your dignity. “You are not numbers or case files. “You are people — with a family and a home left behind, with dreams that no one has the right to scorn.” — Pope Leo XIV

Political ideology is the strongest predictor of Messi-Ronaldo preference. Authoritarians who like short-form video are more likely to think Ronaldo is the GOAT.

good to see this. Musk is clearly getting visibly angry at the rising awareness of how many hundreds of thousands of people his DOGE wilding spree has already killed, millions more if this stays in place into the future. Everyone can participate in spreading the word about all the blood on his hands

Försvarsmakten försöker hålla relationerna till Palantir i det fördolda. Men vi har fått tillgång till hemliga chattar som visar att Sverige i höstas fördjupade samarbetet med det amerikanska spionbolaget. In och läs! www.etc.se/inrikes/heml...

The plan: forever warp the job market through taxpayer-funded subsidies of unsustainable AI businesses just long enough for all other companies to lay off millions of workers and reorient their work processes around proprietary technology and then once this is accomplished, raise inference prices.

But when we crave power over life—endless wealth, unassailable safety, immortality—then desire becomes greed. And if knowledge allies itself to that greed, then comes evil. Then the balance of the world is swayed, and ruin weighs heavy in the scale.

bra!

It will never stop being funny to me that the street fighter subreddit has a much better, well reasoned ai policy vis a vis literally all universities.

We're all laughing now, but remember this moment when it's your turn to be prime minister.

Bör delas & spridas varje dag: "Dagens ETC och Supermiljöbloggen har genom att begära ut hundratals dokument granskat hur oljebolaget Exxon, via tankesmedjorna Atlas Network och Timbro, betalat Moderaterna för politik som går på tvärs mot klimatvetenskapen." www.aktuellhallbarhet.se/opinion/komm...

‼️Medan politikerna låter som nykära tonåringar tror en stor del av befolkningen att #AI ska försämra nästan allt. Enorm klyfta visas i undersökning från tankesmedjan @FuturionSWE #DN

Accurate.

there needs to be a coordinated global effort among democracies to destroy this man's financial and social media empires and leave him impoverished and powerless

suno has used *one hundred and thirty eight* of my songs across two of their datasets. this is almost my entire catalogue of music. it's just about everything i've released from 2017 to 2024. if anyone knows any lawyers in the music industry that are working on a case for this please get in touch!

Vi ockuperade världen, stal deras naturtillgångar, startade en våg av ändlösa krig och satte mänskligheten i rörelse. Och nu sätter vi oss bakom murar och taggtråd, säger fuck you till FN:s mänskliga rättigheter och njuter av vårt makabra överflöd. Yolo mthrfkrs. Fascismen är tillbaka.

we can fix that

Det är väldigt väldigt väldigt viktigt att ni läser faktarutan längst ner i artikeln, speciellt den sista bilden här

”Långt ifrån värst” är verkligen många bokstäver för att säga ”bäst”

Korruptionsnivån…jag börjar sakna ord och då brukar jag ändå ha saker att säga om saker och ting.

Cannot express how far into “do not cite the deep magic to me, I was there when it was written” territory you’ve brigaded. I sympathize as I have a bad habit of doing it too but oof.

This is just straightforward white nationalist great replacement rhetoric, the kind of thing that would have been confined to neo-Nazi forums a decade ago. Multiple mass shooters in recent years believed exactly this.

Here are all 113 alleged members we were able to successfully extract. This data can also be verified via versions of the site captured by the Wayback Machine, even if it doesn't properly render the website.

SCOOP: So remember Dialog, Peter Thiel's private society that doesn't have a public website and no public list of members? I (along with a number of other journalists) have just been tipped off that embedded in the code of their closed off website there IS what seems to be a list of some members.

Joe Rogan looks like if Shrek had to dress as a human to attend a custody hearing.

It's also profitable. If you have to scan drivers licenses to access Facebook, storing and verifying that information can be outsourced to a company which oh wow what a coincidence is run by a Facebook subsidiary. Technically regulating the internet, AND you are made richer!
