  1. Google is LLM horny.

    All of a sudden I saw summarize this in Gmail.
    Without my consent Google enabled LLM slop in Gmail.

    They call it smart features you have to turn it off per account, and need to check after every patch of Gmail if they turned it back on

    This is only important on a simple tight spaced Android of mine. All others have open source clients

  2. CW: Too boring for words.

    I am drafting a "rules of association". It is partly an exercise, and partly an guess at of something that may become real.

    Starting with the standard rules for an "unincorporated association": (acnc.gov.au/sites/default/file)

    But I am tired of organisations infiltrated by arseholes, and I wonder if it is possible to put standards of behaviour front and centre.
    I am inspired by Mastodon's "No Nazis", but I am not sure it is either specific, nor general enough.

    Please help. Does your group have something-like this? What have I missed, and, in the interests of sanity, what has been double-defined?

    17. Membership hurdles.
    17.1 The association insists on the following psychological characteristics and standards of behaviour from all members.
    17.2 No member will be accepted, and existing members will be expelled if they fail any of these hurdles.
    17.3 The psychological characteristics. Members must not be:
    i. psychopaths,
    ii. sociopaths,
    iii. narcissists,
    iv. liars,
    v. egomaniacs.
    17.4 The standards of behaviour. Members must never indulge in :
    i. crime,
    ii. racism,
    iii. misogyny,
    iv. criticism of person,
    v. aggression, threats, shaming,
    vi. coercive control,
    vii.prejudice, bigotry.
    17.5 The association explicitly rejects the notion that a person’s ability can replace or diminish their need to clear these hurdles. The most able and talented member will be expelled if they fail.

  3. I dunno who Matt Forney is, but either he's an idiot, or knows full well that the "Reichstag Fire playbook" is when a crisis is used as a pretext to ban parties, mass-arrest opponents, censor the press, and centralise power.

  4. I'm not sure they have a lot to choose from, given that Reform politicians typically seem to have all the intellectual capacity of a six-year-old.

  5. CW: Swearing

    Thank you to Queensland’s last LNP Premier, Campbell Newman The Supremely Fucking Ignorant, for cutting the funding to the eradication programme just before it succeeded in ridding Australia of these pests at their point of entry.

    The “CanDo” man, who has now gone on to work in agricultural robotics and campaign for fascists - sorry “libertarians” - deemed that 80% eradicated was enough…

    What an utter twat.

  6. Great.. there's about 20 drunk football / afd supporters in the train. They are more and more aggressively loud as time moves on and beer (they have a beer tap) intake increases.

    #bahn staff is invisible. A man with a teenage girl tried to find them but figured moving to the other side of the train was easier.

    Does #DB actually have a telephone number to call or text for this?

  7. Can someone tell Tanya that correlation is not causation… please…

    Yes you coal- and lead-addled berk, older kids have been getting a bit down lately, this might be because of the future that fossil fools like you are leaving them.

    What a shame we can’t have a selective extinction that only affects climate change deniers…

  8. Translation: Homophobic and transphobic bigots fear for their privileged lifestyle.

    As is traditional the oppressors cloak their violent rhetoric in terms of their own - deeply perverted - fantasies of being oppressed.

  9. "vaccine skeptic" makes him seem ... well, like the kind of person that antivaxxers like to think they are: serious, flinty-eyed question-askers, rather than stubborn assholes stamping their feet and refusing to learn what can be fully known because they want some special hidden truth of their own.

    Bravo!

  10. In nature it’s quite encouraging when you get a parasite that parasitises a different parasite - it shows your ecosystem is becoming more complex.

    Aside from the schadenfreude seeing a known snake oil scammer get parasitised by other scammers this ecosystem complexity is not nearly so good…

  11. What Bill? You mean that the rapist and war criminal supporting hacks at Channel7 might go to the wall without being pumped up by money from the promoters of domestic violence in the gambling “industry”…?

    Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

  12. @lawas @arrrg @piglet Nothing works, not organising, not protesting, nothing AFTER the first fascist gets elected.

    It’s so fucking obvious that it’s clearly well beyond the mental capacity of the ‘Murican “left” (a contradiction in terms if ever there was one).

  13. Australian governments (and their contractors) are all truly deeply madly shitty at cybersecurity.

    Scrub that, they suck at computers full stop. They all want to know where the “any” key is on a keyboard while cheerfully handing our data to any company that smiles and offers a political donation…

  14. Kansas and the soldiers sent to the trenches of WWI gave us the 20th Century’s nastiest flu pandemic.

    This time it’s going to be Texas and Twattery…

    Make sure your flu jabs are up to date.

  15. @theconversationau so the ghouls of the ALP have accepted that the Great Barrier Reef is already dead and are acting accordingly.

  17. CW: Cynical post about appalling destruction of ancient structures #juukangorge

    In Ireland I shall get to touch irreplaceable neolithic structures that haven't been blown up by multinational mining companies. #JuukanGorge #riotinto #arseholes

  18. No-one's talking about #LinkedIn in all the social media hubbub of the day but in case you were wondering, it's still full of #arseholes
