That's what we have. We have #power hungry, object and cash oriented people calling themselves leaders that can't lead themselves to anywhere. They are leading to the wrong end of the #Poseidon. You're going to die with them. Go to the #engine #room. In this analogy it means take #control. Stand up.

#State #media #control influences #LargeLanguageModels (#LLMs)
"Millions of people around the world query LLMs for information. Although several studies have compellingly documented the persuasive potential of these models, there is limited evidence of who or what influences the models themselves, leading to a flurry of concerns about which companies and governments build and regulate the models. Here we show through six studies that government control of the media across the world already influences the output of LLMs via their #TrainingData. We use a cross-national audit to show that LLMs exhibit a #stronger #ProGovernment valence in the languages of countries with #LowerMediaFreedom than in those with higher media freedom. The combination of influence and persuasive potential across languages suggests the troubling conclusion that states and powerful institutions have increased strategic incentives to leverage media control in the hopes of shaping LLM output."

Why I'm leaving #GitHub
source: jorijn.com/en/blog/leaving-git…
TL;DR
• GitHub logged 257 incidents in May 2025 to April 2026, 48 of them major. The CTO publicly apologised and said capacity needs to scale 30x to keep up with AI-driven load.
• In August 2025 GitHub stopped having its own CEO. It is now a unit of Microsoft's #CoreAI division, the same group building Copilot and the broader AI stack.
• On April 24, 2026 GitHub flipped #Copilot Free, Pro, and Pro+ user-interaction data to opt-in for AI training by default. There is no repository-level opt-out.
• US-jurisdictional risk under #FISA Section 702 and the CLOUD Act is unresolved. Microsoft's own attorney told the French Senate under oath he could not #guarantee #EU data was safe from silent US #government access.So tell me why do they still use GitHub?

controlling the outside is futile
controlling the inside is dignity and valueall money and law can do is control the outside
maybe that's why religion is still so powerful.
but I'm not talking for religionfor me outside equals general physics
and inside equals quantum physics -
Today I looked it up and I am convinced: #StarFox is a #shmup.
In both #StarFox and classic #ShootEmUps like #RType, the #player controls the same two axes, left, right, up and down. The #game moves you forward automatically in both cases, whether the screen scrolls sideways or into the depth.
A true "rail #shooter" would be something like #VirtuaCop, where you have zero movement #control and only aim. #StarFox gives you full freedom on two axes. The label "rail shooter" is simply inaccurate.
#StarFox is a #3D shmup. That is all.

SPC is a method/tool for monitoring, controlling, and improving processes by using real data to reduce waste and ensure quality.
Control Charts is the primary tool to document process stability, but not the only one.

How long before we can't participate in whatever's left of society without Google or Apple shackles in our pockets and on our wrists. (I already can't buy concert tickets since Ticketmaster and DICE have no ability to enter the show via mobile website or printed ticket.) #Surveillance #Civics #Accessibility #Refusenik #Smartphone #Duopoly #Control #CDNPoli

This is long, but excellent, and captures a lot of my thinking exactly - "The Slow Death of the Power User":
https://fireborn.mataroa.blog/blog/the-slow-death-of-the-power-user/
TL;DR - Big Tech and other interests have successfully turned most people away from understanding their computing devices, and we all suffer as a result. I strongly recommend reading it for anyone who cares about understanding what their systems do, or what to do when they go wrong, or who likes to build things.
It's from a couple of months ago, but I only discovered it when it went by in my feed here a few days ago.
