Setting up a Flint 3e router at my home was a game changer to be able to cut ads on my network :

I can browse the web with a much better experience on all kinds of sites, Adguard is doing its job perfectly!

I have also sink holed Smart TV’s calling home to China and will have overall a much more secure network since devices that don’t need to talk to other devices are now on their own VLAN, same for Guests connecting to my home Wi-Fi, they’ll be on their VLAN.

I still have to move a few devices to the new Wifi network behind the Flint 3e and then I’m done!

AI Exec: We May Have Pulled Off “The Largest Theft of Labor in Human History”

If hackers were doing one fifth of what AI labs are doing today, they would have DOJ and most international police organizations hunting them down and getting them arrested. Meanwhile, the impunity continue for the new Royalty : AI overlords and their rogue agents roaming the internets without a leash.

Ai labs will have to simulate the internet, akin to a synthetic internet just be able to test their models without polluting their models with AI dirt produced by rogue AI models that have escaped from their sandbox.

@julian@activitypub.space oh it’s nothing serious in relation to Fedify, It’s mostly related to how the ActivityPub space has no real C2S spec that an implementer can follow? And also since I have added a layer to support the Mastodon API to be able to use Phanpy or Moshidon or any Mastodon app actually, I find myself handling a complexity and potential tech debt that I wish I could skip… So that’s the part I’m refactoring, I want to make sure my native reader and my native implementation can survive the future evolution all the while supporting the a Mastodon API layer and working on real native C2S to eventually build my own mobile app

Ce gouvernement belge va mettre le feu au poudre, comme ci le traitement des professeurs et des élèves ces derniers mois n’était pas déjà une insulte suffisante, le rabotage en shmet des salaires des profs en septembre va juste être ma goutte d’eau de trop.

Qui sème la misère, récolte la colère.

It’s been 7 months running my own #fedify powered #ActivityPub server There are tons of improvements to make, if not an entire refactoring of the current codebase.

It works but there is quite a few quirks that make it unfit for general usage, unless you want to experiment :)

Crazy times we live in… The very big tech that are organizing the fall of democracies are given heads of state like power to craft the future while literally hacking away in full impunity (RIP Aaron Swartz) meanwhile the last 40 years of devolution have layed the ground for mass inequalities to lead to neofascism.

L’IA aurait «failli déclencher une guerre» entre les États-Unis et la Chine après avoir écrit un faux rapport de renseignement, selon CNN

Le risque ce n’est pas Skynet ni l’AGI, le risque c’est les humains complètement débile qui utilisent ces outils pour obtenir des effets géopolitiques, commerciaux ou politiques eux-mêmes assis sur une perception du monde en “warp drive” intoxiquée par la désinformation, l’ignorance, la cupidité et la bêtise.

ça fait 2 mois que je traîne sur la publication d’un article long format qui pose la question : pourquoi sait-on prévoir mais plus gouverner ? (en rapport avec les incendies de cet été, les manques de moyens chroniques de la Justice, l’absence de moyen pour l’éducation et j’en passe)

J’ai fait plein de recherche, j’ai sourcé mes affirmations, j’ai allongé, raccourcis, comprimé, retiré, j’en suis à plus de 8000 charactères et je ne suis pas content, c’est dur d’écrire en fait.

Et je ne vais même pas aborder le cas de mon livre qui lui est encore à l’état de balbutiement.

I like her, perhaps that’s another good thing in the US landscape : Journalists saying fuck you to billionaires owned media platforms and building resistance and free thinking outside of the limited, bowed, humiliated media conglomerates that are licking Trump’s booth.

And the media are not alone, there are universities, law firms, corporations, tech moguls, ALL bowing to the King.

So the best thing that can happen is good people saying fuck you and taking a hike to build resistance on the side.

There isn’t just one way to resist. In fact, the best resistance against a corrupt regime is a multitude of forms of resistance.

At least some USians are not totally lost. And that’s good.
