The nice thing is, it makes it easy to identify anyone who doesn't publicly stay they won't do it now and get fired by Hesgeth, if they don't do that, then they are absolutely selling their LLM models and data to trump without any safety or security restrictions as that drunk Hesgeth and Trump made clear this week.
Open ai? Gemeni? Not a peep from them about wanting to keep your rights safe and no complaints from Hesgeth means they sold your constitutional rights off.

No, those people already did. They have transferred the grift into houses, retirements, and change the course of the future for themselves and their families.
Everyone else gets to pick up the pieces for their deceit, exaggeration and stupidity.
Middle class parents are the ones slapping Gps trackers on their kids wrists. Poor kids are the lucky ones as they may not yet have a digital leash due to cost? I'm sure googles next academic intrusion will move from Chromebooks to smart watches for PE.
I seriously can't believe how common it is to see 9-y/os chatting on a voice call every 15 minutes with their parents. I'm on block a. I'm going to playground b. I'm with Johnny. JFC and their parents likely had exposure to "higher education".
Related: Marjoe, is a 1970s Oscar winner for best documentary about a child preacher, Baptist preaching, the money involved in the preaching/god industry, and to a degree clearly exposed the raw core of manipulation inherent. It's a documentary so doesn't come straight out and say it, so it could be interpreted differently perhaps by a strong religious conservative. It's a fantastic exposé.
Honestly some of the Michael moore movies; Roger and me might hit different for some of those folks now that they're suffering the continued effects of wealth concentration that is so flagrantly and unashamedly happening. Sicko will probaby hit many folks across the aisle as the issue is universal. Bowling for Columbine might be interesting depending on if they are a gun nut.
The atomic cafe is in my top 5 movies of any genre. It's not just about arms proliferation, it pulls together a ton of cultural pieces and shows how naive, propagandized, and horrible a nascent fascist nation began post WWII.
TBH, and after reading some of the comments it seems to line up with this how Op post is "duh", and low effort and thinking about it more makes me wonder if this is botception and that's why it's all ringing weird bells and bothering me? The post feels like a vague dissemination of generic information (read bot/LLM) linking a wikipedia article that reads like someone non-human smashed it together (read bot/LLM). I'll leave what I started as a response before I arrived at this post.
_-------------------------
I think this is the worst Wikipedia I've ever read and as a 30(?) year user that has maybe never time to criticize a wikipedia page (blatant bias or trolling aren't worth the effort), it's saying something.
It doesn't list obvious things like sports or any other activity from bingo halls, board games that would probably be some of the most common activities in the world.
Their concept of the phrase seems almost like an opinion that isn't really applied at anytjing more than an adolescent knowledge of a subject without any source material.
The one part of their writeup I (subjectively) had heard (alcohol being described as an social lubricant) was described as "negatively viewed" though that seems like a limited claim/opinion. Which feels weird and information without any synthesis.
Not really the merger of corporate and state power in fascism buT what I noticed was the similarity in times with the fundamental decision between authoritarian rule and democracy and the crossroads Rome was taking going the other direction and how the US seems to be retreating from.
I'm watching Gladiator tonight for the first time in 20 years. It's hardly new but so painful to watch again through the lens of the current state of America. It went from ominous historical warning 25 years ago of power, weakness and how men act in opportune moments to a primer on current affairs.
"The exact technical mechanism remains under investigation, though the compromise occured at the hosting provider level rather than through vulnerabilities in Notepad++ code itself. Traffic from certain targeted users was selectively redirected to attacker-controlled served malicious update manifests."
Fuckall they could really have done about it other than changing host providers, which they mentioned they already have as a result.
The majority of their employees are in warehouses. They have more than 1 million employees. Most people don't have options, even white collar workers are outmatched in the employment relationship when they depend on income to survive month to month. Few are those who have the relativve luxury of employer political alignmnet.
People can barely feed themselves. The federal minimum wage hasn't gone up in 19 fucking years. Think about the implications of that in a high inflation environment. That is work for no pay essentially.
Dictatorships can be very efficient, tons of time saved by no meetings, delays, stakeholders, rights, debate or considerations needed.
