It's now, for the first time ever, available to watch/stream_as_video as well. It is about Fake Women in Tech. To quote the summary: "In this first visual episode, Ed and Helen speak to special guest, Mercy Ageitu, about Fake Women in Tech, what that means, and many of the problems still faced by women in the workplace, especially in the tech industry." This relates somewhat to what_we_published_this_morning_in_relation_to Microsoft. My wife, who actually has a University Degree in Computer Science is increasingly_unhappy_about_the_'fakes'. This causes a harmful stigma to develop. █ ⠀⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡟⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡛⠋⠁⡐⢌⠢⢐⠈⠌⠢⡱⡛⠹⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠡⠀⠀⡠⢈⠥⢒⠉⠂⠀⠄⠐⠙⠌⠄⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠛⠋⠃⠃⠀⠇⠀⠙⠋⠀⠸⠀⠈⠊⠚⠙⠉⠘⠃⠃⠃⠀⠇⠀⠓⠛⠛⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠊⠁⠐⠀⠁⠀⠂⢀⠈⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠾⠾⠏⠺⠊⠀⠸⠜⠆⠈⠑⠗⠝⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⡟⣵⣿⣿⡌⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣴⡿⣟⣧⣥⣀⡅⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⢤⡀⣀⢠⡦⡤⡆⢠⡤⠠⣄⠤⡤⠤⠄⢠⡤⡰⡄⠠⡄⢄⠀⣠⡤⡤⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⣿⡾⣿⢿⣿⣿⣖⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⠟⢁⣼⢿⡿⠿⣿⢱⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⠹⣱⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⡥⠄⠀⢰⡁⠀⠸⣿⣍⣥⣼⣇⢘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠐⠁⠘⠓⠚⠀⢙⠋⠛⠀⠒⠚⢒⡚⠀⠛⠒⡛⠚⠓⠀⠛⠃⡓⠛⠀⢛⠐⠛⠀⠛⠚⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⡏⡄⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣿⣷⣿⣄⣀⢻⢀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣟⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢋⠁⢀⡉⡀⠋⣉⢉⡀⢈⡉⣉⠘⣀⣙⣉⠉⢈⣀⡈⢉⡁⡁⠈⣉⠉⣀⣉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⡇⣇⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⡇⠣⢄⡀⠈⢙⠒⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢠⡠⣤⣤⣄⣬⠀⣬⣀⡄⠀⣅⣨⡄⡍⡄⡈⣤⣤⣠⠄⢠⡅⢠⣅⡌⣤⣥⢠⡅⣠⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⡗⠒⢻⣟⣟⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⣱⣦⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠤⡤⠤⠀⠄⠰⡄⠰⠄⠠⠦⠄⠀⠤⠠⠀⠀⠤⠤⠄⢠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⡇⡄⠘⠿⣿⠩⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠡⢷⣮⢪⡂⠀⠀⡻⠈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣧⣧⠇⠸⣇⢮⣽⣿⣿⡿⠧⣄⡙⠻⣧⢙⢜⢦⣢⡀⡌⠳⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣧⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⢀⡀⡀⣀⢀⡀⡀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⠠⢠⣯⡩⣿⣛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡘⠂⠉⠪⣶⡁⣹⠑⠓⡀⠨⡉⢻⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⡿⣿⢯⢰⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢉⣁⢙⡋⡀⢀⢉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⣧⢂⢋⣟⣵⣿⣼⣿⣷⣻⢻⠃⠩⢀⡄⢙⠿⣮⣶⣔⣡⡴⣾⣍⢿⣿⣯⡿⣿⣯⠏⠁⢂⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⢈⣉⣈⡁⣉⡉⣈⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⣿⣧⠢⡳⣽⣽⡏⢹⣆⠻⢣⠀⠀⢀⠰⢎⣷⣿⣿⣿⠏⡽⠽⢻⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⡷⣏⣄⣾⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠁⠈⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣯⠈⠸⢿⠸⣦⣳⡵⡅⠀⠀⠈⠃⢻⡽⣿⡿⢿⡇⠈⠀⠘⡿⣿⣟⣽⣿⣕⢼⣿⣾⡹⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⡄⠀⠙⣿⣿⢄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠘⠁⠠⠀⠀⠀⠠⣿⠗⢑⣵⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠐⢲⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⡆⠀⢐⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡃⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⢐⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣫⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠈⠀⠈⠉⠁⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠙⠻⠿⠿⠛⣭⣶⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠿⠿⢿⡀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⣰⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⢰⣦⣤⣄⣀⣠⣤⣤⣤⣶⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣷⡄⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢁⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣍⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠻⢿⣿⣿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠘⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⢸⣿⣿⣷⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⡏⢋⣿⡀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠁⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⡇⠈⠸⣷⠀⠈⠉⢹⡿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⡿⣟⣛⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠁⠉⠁⣀⣠⡇⠈⠛⣿⣿⣧⣿⡀⠀⠀⠘⣄⣀⡀⢘⡇⠀⠄⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠠⣄⠈⠻⣿⣼⣿⣿⠁⠱⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢨⣿⡟⠀⠀⠐⠟⢻⣿⠃⢀⡄⣠⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠴⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⢹⣿⢶⣿⣿⣿⠿⢠⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢾⠅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠚⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠙⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠳⠾⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠁⠸⠿⠋⠁⢰⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠾⠻⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠦⠀⠐⠰⠐⠐⠰⠰⠰⠿⠿⠿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠙⠋⠁⠉⠈⢿⣿⣿⡶⣶⠀⠀⠀⠲⠙⠛⠿⢿⠿⢿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠤⠤⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠤⠤⠤⠤⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠤⠤⠤⠤⠄⠀⠀⠠⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠀⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠃⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 184 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.techrights.org/n/2024/01/30/Fakecoins_and_Microsoft_Rallying_Markets_Based_on_a_False_Perce.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2024/01/30/Fakecoins_and_Microsoft_Rallying_Markets_Based_on_a_False_Perce.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Fakecoins and Microsoft (Rallying Markets Based on a False Perception of Value)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 30, 2024 Related: There_is_No_Such_Thing_as_'Cryptocurrency'_and_Please_Stop_Referring to_It_as_Cryptocurrency Bitcoin "value": 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇BTC value⦈ How many of the pertinent BTC "exchanges" collapsed in recent years, leaving customers without anything? Where is the "material" value, other than some bits on a disk, high electricity bills, and maybe some 'paper trail' on a Web site? Microsoft is enabling these 'cryptocurrency' scams and cons. Microsoft share "value": 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇MSFT chart⦈ Asymptotic distributions or such curves typically represent the rise and fall of pyramid schemes, like the_one_run_by_the_wife_of_Jim_Zemlin (of the Linux Foundation). There's no "free lunch" and "real" money does not grow on trees; it must be tied to assets and/or labour. What is this Microsoft share "value" based on? Lots of plagiarism on a disk (lawsuits are still piling up), high electricity bills, and bribed scholars pretending that chatbots are the best thing since the steam-based locomotive [1, 2]. Recent_article: The bubble was terrible. VCs and scammers scooped up billions from pension funds and other institutional investors and wasted it on obviously doomed startups. But after all that “irrational exuberance” burned away, the ashes proved a fertile ground for new growth. Contrast that bubble with, say, cryptocurrency/NFTs, or the complex financial derivatives that led up to the 2008 financial crisis. These crises left behind very little reusable residue. The expensively retrained physicists whom the finance sector taught to generate wildly defective risk-hedging algorithms were not able to apply that knowledge to create successor algo­rithms that were useful. The fraud of the cryptocurrency bubble was far more pervasive than the fraud in the dotcom bubble, so much so that without the fraud, there’s almost nothing left. A few programmers were trained in Rust, a very secure programming language that is broadly applicable elsewhere. But otherwise, the residue from crypto is a lot of bad digital art and worse Austrian economics. AI is a bubble, and it’s full of fraud, but that doesn’t automatically mean there’ll be nothing of value left behind when the bubble bursts. World­Com was a gigantic fraud and it kicked off a fiber-optic bubble, but when WorldCom cratered, it left behind a lot of fiber that’s either in use today or waiting to be lit up. On balance, the world would have been better off without the WorldCom fraud, but at least something could be salvaged from the wreckage.

Representatives and Explains How We Know Patent Quality and Validity Have Collapsed⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 30, 2024 Current EPO management refused or intentionally failed to even reply to him. Unable or unwilling to defend their lies, unlawful actions (EPC violations) and so much more, António_Campinos et al turned a once-respectable EPO into a rogue institution, condemned by its own alumni (even Jacques_Michel, a former EPO VP1). 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Daniel X. Thomas⦈ Some days ago we linked to this_article, which was later (about one day later; maybe a little longer) got highlighted_by_the_union. There are several good comments in there, but this one comes from Daniel X. Thomas, a former Director at the European Patent Office (EPO) who has also been very vocal against the empty assertion of legality and constitutionality of the_kangaroo_court_of_the EPO, at several levels [1, 2]. We're reproducing his comment below: DXThomas January 29, 2024 at 6:36 pm I can only concur with the conclusions of the CSC. On another blog, I published the results of the analysis of 1171 published decisions in 2023 of the boards of appeal following an appeal after opposition. As the boards of appeal are deciding in last instance on the validity of a granted patent, published decisions of the boards are the only benchmark available, unless one considers that decisions of the boards cannot be trusted. From those 1171 published decisions, 1051 where final decisions. Among those 1051 final decisions, 46.4% were revocations, 33,3 % maintenance in amended form and 20,3% rejections of the opposition. In 60% of the 1171 published decisions, the OD’s decision was set aside. Some figures stick out In 32,3% of the cases, the decision of maintenance of the OD was changed into revocation. In 16,7% of the cases, the decision of maintenance of the OD was confirmed but in a different form, in general more restricted, rarely broader. In 16,0% of the cases, the decision of rejection of the opposition of the OD was changed in revocation. In 7,5% of the cases, the decision of rejection of the opposition of the OD was changed in maintenance in amended form, i.e. more limited. In 7,5% of the cases, the decision of rejection of the opposition of the OD was changed in remittal for further prosecution. In 120 cases the board decided to remit for further prosecution. By doing so it also set aside the decision of the OD. Another interesting figure is that in 2023, only in 6% of the 1171 cases, opponents came with documents which were truly not available in the search files of the EPO. Those concern public prior uses, catalogues, oral disclosures at conferences, minutes of conferences or PhD dissertations. For the preceding years, the proportion was higher, 10%, but not fundamentally different. On the blog, there are some anonymous comments which can manifestly only emanate from the EPO. It has been alleged that, contrary to my figures, 60% of decisions of ODs are upheld. To come to this figure, any decision of an OD which is not appealed is considered upheld. As the EPO does not know the reasons why there was no appeal, this conclusion is quite daring, to say the least. In a system with two instances, when the second instance sets aside 60% of the decisions of the first instance, some conclusions have to be drawn. That boards can have a different position on a given topic is not at stake. A proportion of divergences of 20%, even 30%, appears acceptable, but not 60%. It was also claimed that 40% of appeals do not lead to a published decision, because the appeal was not validly filed (essentially no arguments, no fee paid). This as well cannot be true. In the absence of a statement of grounds of appeal, the board decides that the appeal is not admissible and publishes a corresponding decision. If no appeal fee is paid within the 9 months, then the appeal is not deemed filed and the appeal fee is to be reimbursed. Here again, the boards takes and publishes a decision. Decisions in which the appeal is not admissible or not deemed filed have not been taken into account in the 1171. It was also claimed that the number of cases I have studied (1171) might be “almost infinitesimal compared with the number of grants published (around 1%)”. On the other hand, if a granted patent does not resist a serious scrutiny when it appears important for parties, then it does not bode well for all the patents which are not scrutinised. As oppositions are not evenly distributed over all technical domains, they do not allow to make a direct assessment of the overall quality of the work delivered by the EPO, but represents nevertheless a good indicator. The technical areas in which oppositions occur has also changed over the years. Oppositions occur in competitive areas, either due to new emerging technologies or in which competitors want to keep or increase their slice of the market. In those areas, or for instance for SMEs, it is important to obtain patents with a very high presumption of validity. If patents which appear important for parties are not resisting oppositions very well, it allows to have doubts about the validity of patents which are not opposed. The above conclusions were communicated to the President and to VP1 before publication. No reaction came from the EPO before publication. After publication, only some anonymous comments have manifestly come from the EPO. The author of this comment does not agree with us on software patents, but then again he's not a coder and probably does not understand that profession. █ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⠛⢛⡻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⢛⣉⣉⡉⠛⠛⠛⢿⡿⢿⣿⣷⠟⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣍⠛⠿⢿⠁⣠⡶⠟⠛⢛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣱⣿⣏⠉⢉⣙⣳⣤⣤⣄⢠⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣾⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⡉⠙⠋⣡⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣭⣭⣭⣭⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣭⣤⣴⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠀⠈⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠙⠛⠛⠻⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠛⠋⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⢶⣄⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠙⠛⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠛⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠏⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠻⢿ ⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠛⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⣹⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠟⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠈⠁⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣶⣄⡾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⢁⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⢠⣾⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⡀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 531 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.techrights.org/n/2024/01/30/If_It_Quacks_Like_a_Ponzi_Scheme.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2024/01/30/If_It_Quacks_Like_a_Ponzi_Scheme.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ If It Quacks Like a Ponzi Scheme...⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 30, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Operating System Market Share Worldwide: Microsoft market cap $172.92 Billion; Microsoft market cap $3050.00 Billion?⦈ THE above_chart hopefully spells it out clearly enough.

Just Microsoft Breaking the Law Again⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 30, 2024 They steal your per-site passwords (so they can access your medical data, E- mail, videochats* and so on), not just your surfing history and everything else (even from other browsers in Windows) 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Longtime Microsoft booster: Microsoft stole my Chrome tabs, and it wants yours, too / Microsoft Edge has a data import feature that’s misbehaving.⦈ MICROSOFT is behaving like an intrusive spy agency, not a real company, and a lot_of_its_revenue_is_government_handouts,_i.e._taxpayers'_money. Why do so many people think it's "OK" to tolerate this? The spying and the de facto bailouts make Microsoft like a modern-day for-profit Stasi. Microsoft Edge is not just stealing_users'_passwords_without_any_consent. As even a faithful Microsoft spinner admits right now: "Microsoft says the data import is completed locally and stored locally but that it will be sent to Microsoft if you sign in and sync your browsing data. Microsoft displays a big blue accept button to encourage Windows users to enable the feature, with a darker “not now” button if you want to opt out. [...] I’m not entirely sure how Microsoft Edge automatically opened and imported my Chrome browser data without this setting enabled. [...] I’ve asked Microsoft for comment on what I witnessed, but the company has not responded in time for publication. I’m not alone in experiencing this, either. Multiple Windows users have been reporting this for months, turning to Reddit and Microsoft’s own support forums for help. Posters have confirmed the same feature is disabled, but the data imports keep happening." Being the notorious Mr. Warren, of course he closes his article by spouting out some Microsoft recommendations. That's his implicit duty, just like Peter Bright, a paid stenographer of Microsoft who turned out to be a serial child rapist. He used to abuse us in our IRC channels. We've always had some Microsoft-connected moles there, demanding censorship and trying to demonise us by spouting out nazi stuff in our channels. █ _____ * Microsoft is the_foremost_partner_of_the_NSA and the pioneer of PRISM.

Also see: Microsoft_is_Microsoft's_Biggest_Client,_Buying_Its_Own_Shares_and Buying_Compute_Time_From_Itself In_the_news_this_week: § I’m going to switch to Linux if Windows continue like that⠀➾ For a year now, tech companies have been in a frantic and questionable race to AI. It’s as if they don’t even question the real usefulness of their products, just to show they’re in the vogue, they continue their race. Clearly, Windows 11 focuses on 2 things that I don’t like: AI and ads, which are becoming unbearable. I find these ads are deeper- rooted in the system than on Windows 10.

most valuable company, declared a profit of $4.5 billion in 1998; when the cost of options awarded that year, plus the change in the value of outstanding options, is deducted, the firm made a loss of

As mentioned for years, they probably make more from buying and selling their own stock than from anything else aside from government bailouts.

Has No Background in Technology, Just Like Frank X. Shaw (Whom Microsoft Took From the Military for Propaganda)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 30, 2024, updated Jan 30, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇NFL⦈_ After Comparative Religion Major and Afro-American Studies Minor at Harvard, why not become a chief in the tech sector, only several years after working in the NFL? This seems like a pattern - a part of a rotting system. People get hired for likelihood of being submissive rather than possessing the relevant skills. We see this at the EPO all the time. We still have a WHO chief can_barely_speak_and_comprehend_English, rendering him ripe for puppetry, e.g. by his bigger donors like Bill Gates. Nobody has been held accountable for mishandling the pandemic and administering_if_not imposing_drugs_with_barely_any_clinical_trials. This is also applicable in the GNU/Linux world. See the GNOME_Foundation and Holly_Million or Jim Zemlin at the anti-Linux_Foundation. Like many other institutions (even_Fedora), they put some of the least qualified people in charge and corporations/shareholders then tell them what to do. They are ill- equipped to resist them as they cannot make a solid argument. Maybe that's a "feature", not a "bug". They are sort of in charge, until they are not (removal would be easy to rationalise for non-compliance). So someone from the NFL is now a Microsoft chief. Still, better than hiring actual nazis to run Azure until they start stabbing colleagues [1, 2, 3]. What if companies that chose Azure for hosting knew who's truly in charge of their systems, data, and more? Fictional market "value" does not imply a competent workforce. █ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠉⠛⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠻⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⠉⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⣶⣿⠿⠿⢋⣥⣾⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣋⠙⠻⢶⣬⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⢀⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢤⣤⣼⣿⣤⣤⡤⠀⠀⠠⣤⣤⣿⣧⣤⣤⠄⠀⠀⣴⣿⣿⣯⣌⡉⠻⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠠⣤⣤⣼⣿⣤⣤⠄⠀⠀⠠⣤⣤⣾⣷⣤⣤⠄⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣧⣄⡉⢻⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣹⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠞⠉⠀⠙⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⠋⠁⠈⠻⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣧⠀⡉⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠟⠁⠈⠙⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠛⠁⠈⠛⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⠇⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⢀⣀⣀⣰⣿⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣾⣇⣀⣀⡀⠸⣿⡟⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣰⣿⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣼⣧⣀⣀⡀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⣿⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣿⡟⠉⠀⠀⣿⢁⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⣿⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠙⢻⣿⣿⡟⠋⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⡼⠛⠙⠻⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⠟⠋⠙⢷⠀⠀⠀⠘⢸⡿⠿⠿⠛⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡼⠛⠉⠻⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠿⠋⠙⠷⡀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢰⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⡆⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⡟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⣿⡟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⣿⡟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣶⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣷⡄⠀⠀⠀⢠⣶⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣶⣶⣆⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣄⣀⣀⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⠋⠉⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⡇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢸⡀⠀⠀⠀⢣⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣦⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⡟⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠋⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠸⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣦⣤⣄⣸⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡿⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣤⣴⣶⣾⣿⣿⡿⠋⠀⠀⢀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⠀⠀⠀⠉⠛⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣦⣤⣼⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣴⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⠉⠀⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠙⠛⠻⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣦⣄⣀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠋⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣤⣄⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠛⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣿⣿⠿⠛⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣤⣴⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣤⣤⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠋⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣤⣤⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠋⠁⠀⠀⣀⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1645 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.techrights.org/n/2024/01/30/Microsoft_s_Revenue_From_rhe_Desktop_Laptop_Device_Market_Conti.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2024/01/30/Microsoft_s_Revenue_From_rhe_Desktop_Laptop_Device_Market_Conti.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Microsoft's Revenue From rhe Desktop/ Laptop/Device Market Continues to Fall, Now for Over a Year in a Row (This Time Down 10%, Income Even Worse)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 30, 2024, updated Jan 30, 2024 The media talks about "the cloud" 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Dramatic_Storm_Cloudscape⦈_ THE so-called 'results' are out and the media is talking about "hey hi" (AI) and "clown computing", but that's a deliberate distraction with buzzwords. They don't even mean anything; a lot of the 'growth' is just rebranding, re- classification, falsification, and Microsoft buying from itself. Microsoft (MSFT) shares are DOWN today. Tom Warren, a Microsoft booster* whom we mentioned a day ago, wrote: "Microsoft did warn that devices revenue would decline against this quarter, and it’s down 9 percent. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said “PC market unit volumes were at roughly pre-pandemic levels,” so it’s likely that Surface simply hasn’t recovered as well. That’s despite Microsoft launching its new Surface Laptop Studio 2, Surface Laptop Go 3, and even a Surface Go 4 late last year. Microsoft’s devices revenue also includes HoloLens and PC accessories, and revenue has been declining for more than 12 months now." So there you go, not too positive. █ _______ * As usual, like with Peter_Bright, Microsoft feeds to its media operatives (moles) "good news" ahead of time just to ensure it can control the narrative and distract from all the bad things, such as the nugget above. Microsoft's decades-long mole Ina Fried is already posting fake news about fake Microsoft_"results". Microsoft media moles doing this type of spin isn't unprecedented. it's just the usual. Over the next few days we'll focus on what they're trying to hide. ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠁⠀⡀⠀⢠⣶⣦⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿

Microsoft just says whatever it wants and nobody checks the books. Except Microsoft staff. We'll pay close attention to how_much_the_debt_grew_this_past quarter (who audits this?) - a subject nobody in the media bothers to report on (it's easier to just reproduce "tweets" and parrot Microsoft's press release/ s). OF COURSE Microsoft will FAKE its "results" this_evening, i.e. the_usual. They already hype_up_"AI_revenue" even if the income - not revenue - is negative. What's gonna stop them from defrauding shareholders? In the US, not only do corporations regulate the government1,2 (inversion), they also elect the government by bribes and "lobbying". They even_control_the courts, at least some of the time... that's how they get government regulators out of their way. Microsoft did this only months ago. Basically, the judge who allowed Microsoft to take over a company (and then lay off many in that company) is the mother of a Microsoft employee!

earnings⦈ Tomorrow or later today we'll publish Part III of the ongoing series [1, 2] about Microsoft's financial fraud, more latterly facilitated by branding or rebranding everything as "AI" - a misleading and meaningless misnomer in those contexts (they just got plagiarism as a service to spew out some words, which are usually false and barely make sense to an actual expert). Over in IRC, admfubar has mentioned_this_new_article. To quote: § Tech layoffs for AI, but Wall Street ready for stellar earnings⠀➾ [...] Microsoft announced that it is letting go nearly 2,000 workers from its gaming division, fallout from its blockbuster buyout of Activision Blizzard, the maker of "Call of Duty." As a reminder, last year we already showed that Microsoft laid off "AI" staff in its own core divisions, not "Activision Blizzard" or some studio. Microsoft does not want anyone to say this (its aggressive trolls have been supremely abusive to me and my family lately), but the bubble was failing months ago and now_they_just_rebrand_everything, fake_"demand"_by_buying_from themselves, falsify_their_financial_reports, and still hope that gullible shareholders will go along. They're throwing investors money into the 'new crypto' (i.e. energy-consuming_scam). Enron-style accounting has become the "new normal". Microsoft keeps bribing_its whistleblowers, who spoke candidly about the financial fraud (e.g. Charles Pancerzewski). Microsoft has been doing this since the late 90s, but don't check Wikipedia. Microsoft_pays_Wikipedia_for_manipulation,_revisionism,_and censorship. █ "Microsoft, the world’s most valuable company, declared a profit of $4.5 billion in 1998; when the cost of options awarded that year, plus the change in the value of outstanding options, is deducted, the firm made a loss of $18 billion, according to Smithers." --The_Economist,_1999 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Amid the current AI tsunami, I knew it was time to do my share of learning this stuff by filling gaps among pieces of my fragmented knowledge about it and organize my thoughts around it. This book served that purpose very well. Generative AI, ChatGPT and sorts, have been released prematurely with too many, too much downsides for possible benefits. It’s especially so when it comes to commercial use. This book walk you through possible risks your business might encounter if you casually incorporate it. Many of his arguments opened my eyes. I’m glad I found his book at this timing. It’s a hype, at least for now and a foreseeable future. Use cases will likely be very limited. And to protect ourselves from bad actors, we need solid regulations, just like in the case of crypto.⦈ ⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⡀⡀⠀⣀⠀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⠿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡤⠀⡠⡀

Business Model⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 30, 2024, updated Jan 30, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Water_condensation_on_a_window_pane⦈_ Microsoft vapourware battles (a siege against reason and PR_stunt over people's sanity) IN yesterday's relatively short article, or in some memes, we attempted to introduce the subject and frame it using metaphors, just as others had_done before. Explaining some technical concept using metaphors from the animal kingdom or the kitchen ("pagpag") can certainly help. LLMs, aka digital pagpag, are copyright-infringing. It is plagiarism as a service. It is a lot worse than the originals. In Part_I_of_this_series I explained that I had already worked with machines learning for over 20 years. It's not new to me. In Part II we collectively focused on the_failure_of_Azure_and_why_Microsoft_had_embraced_OpenAI_(giving it_lots_of_computational_power)_to_fake_"demand. Several people have contribute to this series. Microsoft hopes that people won't grasp just how far back machine learning goes. It's not new at all; adding words like "advanced" or "generative" to AI does not make it new. Where I worked 20 years ago we had already done all this "generative AI" thing with faces, brains etc. But the term "generative" was combined with words like PDM or "models". This was done at a lower resolution due to limitation in computing power back then (or sheer cost of combining machine learning-optimised machines). Almost none of what Microsoft has shown the public this past year can be considered new; they just threw some "brute force" at it (higher electricity bills; it helps fake the "demand" for Azure). Microsoft could really use some fake growth, some hope, some new promise/s to shareholders. They have almost nothing else to show and they are running out of fuel. Headcount too is decreasing. 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Coffee Break Time⦈ In purely speculative market (where perceived value is based on lies if not fraud such as fake_'results'), a company_that_sinks_into_deep_debt (almost the highest debt in the tech sector worldwide!) can be framed as "most valuable". We have two questions: 1. What is Microsoft still selling in 2024? Windows has become almost a giveaway (due to growing competition) and Office has resorted to spam- styled marketing*, so where does the revenue come from? Bailouts**? 2. Does Microsoft have an actual plan for making LLMs actually profitable? For a company, the bottom line is, can it pay all the salaries or have to fire loads of staff? Sure, shareholders can receive the excesses, but without staff there is no actual company. Microsoft keeps shrinking, so on what basis can its "value" grow? The increase in losses induced due to LLMs? None of this makes any sense; it's the hallmark of fraud. The Microsoft layoffs are probably aimed at pumping the stock price, an associate explains, since among the financial LARPers layoffs raise stock prices. That way they can sell stock and then in a few days after the dip buy it back. One can hope that they shut down soon. "Not that it'll happen but one can hope," a reader said, perhaps not taking account/measure of bailouts. "In a financial model affected by reality," this reader remarked, "layoffs would drive down the stock price due to clear divestment from growth-related activities and resources." The truth of the matter is, Microsoft is in a hard place. "I think that is the main reason so much effort has been put into cancelling Eben Moglen, RMS, and the others," one person remarked internally. "If not cancelling at least tying them up fending off attacks rather than being able to participate_in_national processes." █ _____ * The other day we noticed that Which? had resorted to posting pure_Microsoft SPAM to sell Office. Which? was definitely not this rogue a year ago, so a warning label is required. ** "Not only has Which? gone rogue," one associate noted, but Microsoft has also more or less completely captured the White House, the US Senate, the US House, and basically all college and university curricula. Both Trump and Biden kept funnelling "defence" budget directly into Microsoft coffers. We covered many examples over the years. ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⡠⠌⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢯⣧⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀

Gates, Wants to Add a Code of Conduct (Code of Censorship)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 30, 2024 Capture of minds by capturing the financial strings of the messenger [1, 2, 3]. This is the latest: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Charter/ Voter information⦈ The vote is open until February 2nd. That's this week. Of course they will insist that Bill Gates is a very generous person (he pays them) and that Microsoft is doing exceptionally well. Articles about Microsoft are written in Wikipedia by people who get paid by Microsoft to do it. What sort of actual encyclopedia works like that? Regarding the CoC, it's a_censorship_mechanism promoted almost exclusively by very large corporations. See for instance the following older articles about the Code of Censorship stance and how it unfolds in practice: 1. The_Corporate_‘Cancel_Culture’_Industry_—_Part_VII:_Abusing_Online Communities_and_Networks,_Then_Using_One's_Own_Abuse_to_Justify_a_Code_of Censorship_(CoC) 2. 'Linux'_Foundation_(Microsoft,_IBM_et_al)_is_Infecting_the_GNU_Project With_Community-Hostile_Codes_of_Censorship They keep insisting that anyone who opposes a Code of Censorship (CoC) is some kind of a nazi even though the Nazi Party was very keen on censorship. So that's just typical_Schismogenesis (misframing the issue). It typically gravitates towards corporations banning private citizens from criticising them (it's just not marketed as such).

Despite these clear indicia of patentability, the Federal Circuit invalidated claims — affirming the lower court’s judgment on appeal. # ⚓ Kluwer Patent Blog ☛ Quality_at_the_EPO:_staff_and_industry concerns_not_addressed⠀⇛ The Central Staff Committee (CSC) of the European Patent Office has published a paper on the activities of the Industry Patent Quality Charter, titled ‘50 years EPC – The EPO ignoring the skilled person’. [...] ‘Over the last decade, the staff representation has continuously reported that the ever-increasing productivity targets and the New Career System did not create the conditions for staff to focus on quality. EPO management did not listen and kept the staff representation away from any discussion on substantive patent quality. Since 2022, major industry players express their concerns. They bring arguments, data and propose working groups. Instead, the EPO opposes denial, publishes press releases not reflecting discussions and closes its door. One would expect the industry to be better treated than staff and their representation. It is remarkably not the case. When performing an inventive step analysis of a patent application, EPO examiners take into account the general knowledge of the “skilled person” working in the corresponding technical field, especially from the industry. If EPO management does not listen to the “skilled person”, to whom will they listen?’ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3421 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊𝐒 ═════════════════════════════════════════════╕ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Links 30/01/2024: Many More Layoffs (Microsoft the Most Tech Layoffs This Year)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 30, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Penguins_in_Zoo⦈_ 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇GNOME bluefish⦈ § Contents⠀➾ * Leftovers o Science o Hardware o Health/Nutrition/Agriculture o Proprietary/Artificial_Intelligence_(AI) o Security # Privacy/Surveillance o Defence/Aggression o Environment # Energy/Transportation # Wildlife/Nature o Finance o AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics o Censorship/Free_Speech o Freedom_of_Information_/_Freedom_of_the_Press o Civil_Rights/Policing o Internet_Policy/Net_Neutrality o Monopolies/Monopsonies # Trademarks # Right_of_Publicity # Copyrights # Gemini*_and_Gopher # Personal/Opinions # Technology_and_Free_Software * § Leftovers⠀➾ o ⚓ Jeff Bridgforth ☛ Blogroll⠀⇛ One issue that Matthias mentioned is the problem of visibility and discoverability amid the social media chatter. One solution to this problem is to share our posts on our social media channels and links to posts we find interesting. He also encouraged the return to the practice of having a blogroll on our sites to help point our readers to other interesting people. He challenged his readers to consider adding a blogroll to their site this week. Start small with eight links plus a description of each of those sites and why we picked them. o ⚓ Jim Nielsen ☛ Online_Handles:_A_Round-Up⠀⇛ After asking about the origin of online handles, I heard back from a number of folks and loved the stories. It’s fascinating to see an online name like “Apple Annie”, read the origin story, and see this wonderful, multi-faceted human being with a rich history behind the seemingly-random string of characters on screen. It makes the [Internet] more human and I love it. So I wanted to follow up with a collection of what I heard from folks. o ⚓ Chris McLeod ☛ Adding_a_Bookmarks_Page⠀⇛ I mentioned over on The Underground that one thing I wanted to add to my site, to “do more” with it, was a space to collect bookmarks and fun links I com across. Well, I’ve added a quick and dirty “first draft” of the feature over on the new /bookmarks page. It’s even got its own feed you can use to follow along at home. o ⚓ Jake Lazaroff ☛ The_Web_Component_Success_Story⠀⇛ Tom MacWright wrote a short post wondering why we don’t see prominent applications using web components. That’s a fair question! It’s easy to see the success of frameworks like React and Rails: just look at the thousands of websites built with them. What does the web component success story look like? o ⚓ Kevin C Tofel ☛ I_love_this_"smart"_home_for_minimalist retirement⠀⇛ The home in question is designed and built by ZenniHome. They’re based out in Arizona. Conincidentally, that’s one of my favorite states to be in. But that’s not why I’m loving Zenni’s Citizen home. Check out the walkthrough and then I’ll explain. o ⚓ The New Leaf Journal ☛ Missing_Temu_Ads_Through_Good_Internet Usage⠀⇛ I recently learned about something called Temu from one of the Semafor newsletters (unfortunately I lost my link). According to the newsletter, Temu is some sort of Chinese shopping app that somewhat recently became available in the United States and had achieved early success thanks in part to an online advertising blitz. You can infer from my opening that I had never heard of Temu before. I followed a link from the newsletter to an article by Ms. Julia Wadlow at ModernRetail titled ‘I’ve never seen anything like this’: Temu’s ad spend soars as it embarks on a marketing blitz. From reading the article, I learned what Temu is and why some people are apparently talking about it. But my take-away was ultimately self-involved – I thought about why it is that I had no idea what Temu. The answer: I use the internet correctly. I will work through the ModernRetail article and in so doing, highlight why I did not know what Temu is and how you too can achieve ignorance of annoying things on the [Internet]. o ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ The_Toy_Shop_That_Inspired_Toy_Story_Is_Shutting_Down After_86_Years⠀⇛ Jeffrey’s Toys, located in downtown SF, was a valuable resource for the team behind the first feature-length computer-generated animated film—inspiring tales of toys that secretly come to life, and spawning a long-running franchise in the process. Sadly, Jeffrey’s Toys is soon to go the way of many brick and mortar places where a kid could wander the aisles for that special gift. Its storied legacy was carried by the Luhn family for generations; in an interview with SF Gate, co-owner Matthew Luhn shared that the beloved shop “had this real magical thing.” Luhn is also an animator, and worked on Pixar films including Ratatouille and Cars. o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ Omicron Limited ☛ Science_sleuths_are_using_technology_to find_fakery_and_plagiarism_in_published_research⠀⇛ Many images appeared to have duplicated segments that would make the scientists' results look stronger.

To date we've done this through actual serial ports on the servers, which we set up as an additional console. However, this has an obvious issue, which is that your servers need actual serial ports. # ⚓ Dan Langille ☛ Spreading_thermal_paste_–_replacing_Dell R730_CPUs⠀⇛ After cleaning four CPUs, I found the better approach was to remove them from the M/B first, and then wipe from the edge to the middle. The paste came off easily. I used the isopropyl alcohol by putting a small amount onto a paper towel and then wiping. o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ South_Dakota_Legislature_Passes_Bill_That_Would Make_It_A_Felony_To_Expose_Officers_To_Drugs⠀⇛ Despite all evidence to the contrary, law enforcement officials continue to pretend being in the same room as dread drug fentanyl is enough to hospitalize officers, if not actually kill them. This myth has been irresponsibly perpetrated by a number of law enforcement agencies. To date, not a single case of contact overdose has been verified by medical professionals or toxicologists. # ⚓ Will_COVID-19_vaccines_drive_an_“epidemic_of_autism”?_No, but_Byram_Bridle_thinks_so.⠀⇛ Sometimes there are topics that just demand that I write about them. So it was that when I saw the “target” of today’s post, I knew I had to write about this was because it so clearly vindicated what for me had started out as a bit of a quip that I had started repeating in the early months after the mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna first rolled out in those heady days of early 2021, namely that the only reason antivaxxers weren’t claiming that COVID-19 vaccines could cause autism was because they were not being administered to young children. As the age range for the COVID- 19 vaccines got younger and younger, I predicted that antivaxxers would soon be blaming them for autism, but that it might take a few years because autism spectrum disorders are usually not diagnosed until a child is around 3 years old and the characteristic behaviors start to manifest themselves to the point where the parents become concerned. Leave it to Byram Bridle to vindicate my prediction with a post over the weekend on his Substack entitled Will COVID-19 Shots Drive an Epidemic of Autism?, albeit not in the way that I expected. He did, however, echo a common variant of an old antivax claim that vaccines cause autism by adding the blurb If Yes, Those Who Coerced Pregnant Women to Take modRNA Shots Will Be Responsible For It. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Even_More_Evidence_That_Alzheimer's_Was Being_Spread_by_Now-Banned_Injections⠀⇛ Devastating. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Want_to_Get_More_Exercise?_Maybe_Leave_Your Spouse_Behind⠀⇛ Here's what the science says. # ⚓ Arne Bahlo ☛ I_Lived_7_Days_without_a_Smartphone⠀⇛ And I’m trying to fix this: I don’t have TikTok1 or Instagram, I only use YouTube in Safari with Shorts blocked, and I use one-sec for apps that I don’t want to waste my time on. But still, time-sinks keep creeping in after a week or two. # ⚓ AJ Bourg ☛ The_Anti_Social⠀⇛ I saw a post on Instagram the other day that said something like, “Instagram is the new refrigerator. Am I going there and taking a look because I need something, or because I’m bored?” And I think that’s the main fault I have with social media. I actually really like Instagram. And since leaving Twitter and joining Threads, I really very much like Threads, too. I legitimately laugh and learn new things from both sites. I have aggressively curated who I follow and quickly unfollow people who are not posting things that add to my enjoyment of the site. # ⚓ JURIST ☛ France_government_abandons_plan_to_reduce_state subsidies_on_agricultural_diesel⠀⇛ The French government introduced a series of urgent measures on Friday that abandon its plan to reduce state subsidies on agricultural diesel. The measures included emergency solutions aiming to make the life of farmers easier and protect their income, and were announced within “a logic of agricultural independence and food sovereignty, with healthy, safe and sustainable production.” # ⚓ Omicron Limited ☛ Stricter_parental_monitoring_of_social media_isn't_always_better,_says_study⠀⇛ In a new study published in the Journal of Child and Family Studies, researchers surveyed 248 U.S. parents of middle schoolers about their media monitoring behaviors, the family context, and perceptions of their children's problematic [Internet] use. The results revealed that restrictive parental monitoring (including rules and limits of time or content) of adolescents' digital media use was associated with problematic [Internet] use. # ⚓ Zimbabwe ☛ Has_access_to_Chinese_satellites_helped Zimbabwe’s_agric_revival?⠀⇛ Zimbabwe has had access to satellites but it has been limited for the most part. We have had access to Eumetsat (European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites). However, apparently we only had access to their geostationary satellites. # ⚓ Vice Media Group ☛ How_the_U.S._Government_Could_Lower_Food Prices_for_Everyone⠀⇛ This has made it easier for large corporations to raise prices in the U.S., something large corporations have sometimes acknowledged. In the spring of 2022, for example, the chief financial officer of Nestle said on an earnings call that it was “usually easier to implement pricing [in the U.S.] because we have less constraints than in Europe, timing-wise.” On the same call, an executive said Nestle was instituting “higher pricing in the U.S. market than comparatively in Europe or elsewhere” due to inflation. # ⚓ PsyPost ☛ Extreme_metal_guitar_skills_linked_to_intrasexual competition,_but_not_mating_success⠀⇛ One of the most significant findings was that the speed of guitar playing was a significant predictor of intrasexual competition. This indicates that guitarists who perceive themselves as playing faster than their peers tend to have higher levels of intrasexual competitiveness. Moreover, this fast-playing speed was specifically linked to the superiority enjoyment aspect of intrasexual competition, suggesting that these guitarists derive pleasure from feeling superior in their skill compared to other male guitarists. These findings contribute to the broader understanding of the role of creative displays in human social and sexual behavior. They suggest that in the specific context of extreme metal music, guitar playing might be more about asserting dominance and status among male peers, rather than directly influencing mating success. This aligns with the idea that cultural displays, like music and art, can serve multiple social functions, including status elevation within a peer group, rather than being solely about attracting romantic partners. # ⚓ While_COVID-19_surges,_California_guts_mitigation_efforts in_schools⠀⇛ The new guidance came days before a Senate hearing on the dangers of long COVID # ⚓ Video ☛ Decisions,_overwhelmingly_wrong⠀⇛ I will be brief, because it is clear that there is far more demand to speak in the debate than there is time. That shows that we absolutely need a longer debate; we need a debate on the Floor of the House, because it is not just Members present who want to speak, and members of the public have shown enormous interest. I will not go over the excellent points that have been made and the data that has been shared. We know we have a problem in this country with excess deaths, particularly among younger people and particularly from cardiovascular disease. That, in itself, is a huge challenge. We need medical experts and statisticians to address those issues—I am not qualified to do so. What I will say is this: lockdown changed everything. Our response to covid changed everything. Just as we look back on different periods of history—before the war; before the industrial revolution—I believe we will look back at before and after lockdown. Lockdown has changed our economy and how we relate to each other. It has changed our health and our understanding of children’s development. The conditions under which those decisions were made—decisions that were overwhelmingly wrong, in my opinion, although I do not blame any individuals, given the pressure they were under—have not changed. The conditions under which we suspended the precautionary principle, ignored the fact that interventions may cause harm, suspended the importance of children’s education, suspended the safeguarding of children, suspended the need for medical trials and suspended all sorts of safeguards that have stood society in good stead for a long time have not changed. The conditions in Government, the media and wider society under which those decisions were made have not changed because, unfortunately, we have not yet got to the heart of the matter. Why did that pressure come from the media? Why did we have to follow what other countries were doing? Why were we obsessed with particular points of data, such as deaths from covid, rather than considering the wider impact on society? My concern about the covid inquiry is that it is asking all the wrong questions. It is concerned with who swore at whom on WhatsApp, and not the wider conditions under which decisions were made. When, several Education Secretaries ago, the former, former, former Secretary of State for Education, my right hon. Friend the Member for South Staffordshire (Sir Gavin Williamson), stood up in the House of Commons and said that he would close schools, I remember, as a mother, shouting at the television, “Don’t do it! Don’t do it!”. I could see the impact it would have—not just on my own children, but across all the wider components of society. Society is like a big machine; we cannot just take out one part and assume that the rest will continue to operate. We have seen that clearly over the past three years. We must address the reasons why these decisions were made. We cannot do that in three minutes each—we must have a longer debate. # ⚓ Video ☛ Covid_inquiry_no_go_zone⠀⇛ o § Proprietary/Artificial Intelligence (AI)⠀➾ # ⚓ Business Insider ☛ The_full_list_of_major_US_companies slashing_staff_this_year,_from_Citigroup_to_Google_and Microsoft⠀⇛ Discord employees learned about the layoffs in an all-hands meeting and a memo sent by CEO Jason Citron. "We grew quickly and expanded our workforce even faster, increasing by 5x since 2020," Citron said in the memo. "As a result, we took on more projects and became less efficient in how we operated." In August, Discord reduced its headcount by 4%. The company was valued at $15 billion in 2021, according to CNBC. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Focused_Cuts_and_Fewer_Layers:_Tech Layoffs_Enter_a_New_Phase⠀⇛ Amazon, Google, Microsoft and other tech companies have been on a layoff spree this month, with the latest cuts differing from last year’s mass reductions. # ⚓ The Verge ☛ Microsoft_stole_my_Chrome_tabs,_and_it_wants yours,_too_-_The_Verge⠀⇛ Microsoft Edge’s import feature has been automatically importing Chrome tabs without consent. Windows users have been complaining about the issue for months. # ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Eidos-Montréal_cut_nearly_100_staff_with new_Deus_Ex_reportedly_cancelled⠀⇛ Hopes for a new Deus Ex have been dashed, with the Embracer Group owned Eidos-Montréal confirming that they've cut 97 people go as the mass-layoffs continue. This is just another in a long list of developers and publishers cutting staff and cancelling projects, all while the Embracer Group try to reduce their costs. It's also another in a long list of just industry-wide layoffs lately. # ⚓ Deus_Ex_Game_Reportedly_Cancelled_As_Another_Embracer Studio_Hit_By_Layoffs⠀⇛ Bloomberg is reporting that another Embracer Group development team has been hit by layoffs, resulting in the cancellation of a brand-new Deus Ex game. We don't have too many details on the project — it was unannounced at the time of its reported cancellation — but the outlet claims the game was "slated to enter production later this year" after being in early development for two years. Eidos was the team behind this project - the very same studio that delivered the last Deus Ex game; Mankind Divided. That one launched on Xbox One in 2016, so it's safe to say it's been quite a wait for a new entry in the franchise. # ⚓ CNBC ☛ Amazon_terminates_iRobot_deal,_Roomba_maker_to_lay off_31%_of_staff⠀⇛ Amazon said on Monday it would not move forward with a planned acquisition of vacuum-maker iRobot , with the two companies saying in a release there was “no path to regulatory approval for the deal.” The Roomba maker also announced it would lay off 31% of its employees, around 350 people, and that its chair and CEO, Colin Angle, would step down effective immediately. Shares of iRobot fell 10% in morning trading on the news. The fate of the deal was plunged into uncertainty after The Wall Street Journal reported that the European Union would not offer regulatory approval. # ⚓ Massive_Layoffs_Shake_an_Already_Chaotic_Video_Game Industry⠀⇛ A series of devastating layoffs rocked the video game industry to its core after one of the greatest years in gaming history. In 2023, the market returned to growth after a post-COVID supply-chain- induced slump, largely on the back of strong console sales and several instantly classic titles being released to critical and financial success. For gamers, things might never have been better, but a peek behind the curtain revealed a business that’s nearing a breaking point. More than 6,500 game developers were laid off in 2023. In just its first month, 2024 layoffs have nearly matched that number, with no end in sight. Part of that is simply a post-pandemic, post-zero-interest-rate correction that we’re seeing play out across the entire tech industry — but gaming’s problems go a lot deeper. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ SolarWinds_slams_SEC_lawsuit_against_it as_'unprecedented'_victim_blaming⠀⇛ SolarWinds – whose network monitoring software was backdoored by Russian spies so that the biz's customers could be spied upon – has accused America's financial watchdog of seeking to "revictimise the victim" after the agency sued it over the 2020 attack. In a motion to dismiss [PDF] the SEC's lawsuit, the embattled developer described the fraud charges leveled against it, and its CISO Tim Brown, "as unfounded as they are unprecedented." In a statement to The Register, Serrin Turner, an attorney at Latham and Watkins, which is representing SolarWinds, railed against the SEC's charges. # ⚓ NL Times ☛ Dutch_State_Sec._of_Digitalization_quits_X⠀⇛ Outgoing State Secretary Alexandra van Huffelen (Digitalization) is quitting X because the platform does not comply with EU laws and does not appear to have any intention of doing so, she told NU.nl. “For me, it is done,” she told the newspaper. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Nvidia’s_Big_Tech_Rivals_Put_Their_Own A.I._Chips_on_the_Table⠀⇛ The boom in generative A.I. over the last year exposed just how dependent big tech companies had become on Nvidia. They cannot build chatbots and other A.I. systems without a special kind of chip that Nvidia has mastered over the past several years. They have spent billions of dollars on Nvidia’s systems, and the chipmaker has not kept up with the demand. # ⚓ Connor Tumbleson ☛ AI_&_Cicada_3301⠀⇛ I've been reworking the puzzles one by one - slowly getting to the point that I'm in unsolved territory. I find solving previously solved puzzles, but forcing myself to just use the source material and attempt solves myself are the most rewarding. Lots of guides jump rather quickly or go from one step to another with no description on why. When you work to solve them without just following an older guide - you understand the puzzles far better. So I've started working on the puzzles again, but wanted to leverage the type of technology available in this day in age. So I decided to build my own tools for understanding the Liber Primus as well as leveraging AI models to help me in this journey. This post is describing some of that success. # ⚓ Jon Udell ☛ You_say_feature,_I_say_bug:_the enshittification_of_Microsoft_Paint⠀⇛ I never asked for these “long-awaited” new features, Paint is (or was) useful to me precisely because it only does the kind of basic bitmap editing I need when compositing screenshots. But I can opt out, right? Nope. o § Security⠀➾ # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ Roomba_Won’t_Give_Amazon_a_Map_of_Your_Home After_Merger_Implodes⠀⇛ Regulators in the EU sent the companies a list of concerns in November regarding how Amazon’s acquisition would stifle innovation in the robot vacuum cleaner marketplace. Privacy was not a concern brought by EU regulators, but consumer advocates have spoken out about how the Roomba acquisition would give Amazon another device to track you and dominate your home’s systems. That pressure from regulators seems to have blown up this deal, and it seems to be an inadvertent, but major, win for your home’s privacy. The company has been growing its presence in consumer homes with Amazon Alexa, Ring doorbells and cameras, and Amazon Fire TV Stick. # ⚓ Rach Smith ☛ I_turned_off_analytics⠀⇛ Something’s changed with my traffic over the last few months. Maybe I hit some sort of “regular posting” threshold for the algorithm to deem me worthy, but some pages have started ranking with Google, and so now the majority of my traffic comes from search. It’s made the analytics data boring, to be honest. I don’t care about what gets ranked on Google, I’m not trying to optimise for the people who come from that channel. I keep writing on this site because it is the best way to find people who have similar interests as me. In particular - the nerds, because my IRL social relationships are with people who are very much on the normy side of the normy-to-nerdy spectrum. # ⚓ Michael Geist ☛ The_Law_Bytes_Podcast,_Episode_190: Debating_Bill_S-210_–_Senator_Julie_Miville-Dechêne Defends_Her_Internet_Age_Verification_Bill⠀⇛ I’ve described Bill S-210, the Protecting Young Persons from Exposure to Pornography Act, as the most dangerous Internet bill you’ve never heard of as it contemplates measures that raise privacy concerns, website blocking, and extend far beyond pornography sites to include search and social media. The bill started in the Senate and having passed there is now in the House of Commons, where MPs voted in favour of it at second reading and sent it to committee for further study. Senator Julie Mivelle-Dechêne is the chief architect and lead defender of the bill. A former Radio-Canada broadcaster who was appointed to the Senate by Justin Trudeau in 2018, she joins the Law Bytes podcast to debate her bill as she provides her rationale for it and defends against the criticism and concerns it has sparked. # ⚓ OpenRightsGroup ☛ How_a_weaker_data_watchdog_impacts you⠀⇛ When things go wrong with people’s data they turn to the UK’s data watchdog, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). This could be about anything, including workplace disputes, discrimination cases, or campaigners challenging why a public body has refused a Freedom of Information (FOI) request. Sadly there are many failings within the ICO. It is widely considered to be one of the weakest data regulators in Europe. Too often it has failed to hold government departments and companies to account for data protection abuses. For example ORG’s report Data privacy and the Information Commissioner’s Office During a Crisis exposed failures by the ICO in protecting the public privacy and data rights during the Covid-19 pandemic. Despite there already being problems the Government’s Data Protection and Digital Information (DPDI) Bill will weaken the ICO further, attacking its independence, granting it powers to ignore complaints, and giving Ministers too much power to set its direction and priorities. Our briefing on the bill sets out these problems. # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Well,_That’s_Everyone:_Senator_Wyden Letter_Confirms_The_NSA_Is_Buying_US_Persons’_Data_From Data_Brokers⠀⇛ Buying domestic data from data brokers is just something the government does all the time. Bypassing restraints enacted by the Supreme Court, federal agencies (along with local law enforcement agencies) are hoovering up whatever domestic data they can from private companies all too happy to be part of the problem. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ TikTok_Testing_Whether_Users_Will_Put_Up_With Every_Video_Being_an_Ad⠀⇛ TikTok has grabbed the world’s attention in recent years, averaging 73 million American users every month. The app knows exactly what you like, and now it’s rolling out phase two: selling you something with every single video. TikTok is testing out a new feature that will identify objects in a video automatically, and encourage viewers to “find similar items on TikTok Shop,” according to Bloomberg. # ⚓ The Verge ☛ TikTok_goes_full_YouTube⠀⇛ The YouTube-ization of TikTok has been happening for a while. The platform is testing 30-minute long videos, and that comes just a few months after it began expanding video lengths up to 15 minutes. Most YouTube videos tend to be 10 minutes or longer (think of “a week in the life” vlogs) for monetization reasons rather than the bite-sized- length content for which TikTok is famous. # ⚓ Vox ☛ America_no_longer_has_a_monopoly_on_deadly_drones⠀⇛ The US military has gotten used to owning the skies. American air superiority in recent conflicts has been so complete that no US ground troops have been killed by an enemy aircraft since the Korean War, which ended more than 70 years ago. Depending on your definition of “aircraft,” however, that may have changed on Sunday, when three US troops were killed in a drone strike on a US base in Jordan near the Syrian border. More than 40 service members were injured in the strike, according to the Pentagon. The Islamic Resistance in Iraq, an umbrella group of militias backed by the government of Iran that oppose both the US’s presence in the region and its support for Israel, took responsibility for the attack. Tehran has denied involvement, but Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh told reporters on Monday that “we know that Iran is behind it.” President Joe Biden vowed to “hold all those responsible to account at a time and in a manner of our choosing,” and a number of GOP lawmakers have called for direct strikes against Iran in retaliation. # ⚓ Greece ☛ Islamic_State_group_claims_responsibility_for_an attack_on_an_Istanbul_church⠀⇛ Yerlikaya said police raided 30 locations and detained a total of 47 people as part of the investigation into the attack. # ⚓ NPR ☛ Pelosi_accuses_some_protesters_demanding_Gaza_cease- fire_of_having_ties_to_Russia⠀⇛ Asked for clarification on whether she thought some anti-war protesters were plants, Pelosi said: "I don't think they're plants. I think some financing should be investigated. And I want to ask the FBI to investigate that." # ⚓ Digital Music News ☛ TikTok_Trounces_YouTube_in_Total_User Minutes_Among_Kids_Aged_2-18⠀⇛ TikTok is trouncing YouTube in total user minutes for the youngest generation (2-18 year-olds). The study reveals kids are spending 60% more time on TikTok compared to YouTube. Is there any wonder why YouTube launched its Shorts feature to compete? The study was conducted by parent control software maker Qustodio and surveyed the media habits of over 400,000 families and schools. The annual report reveals that children aged 4-18 spent 112 minutes daily on TikTok in 2023—an increase over the 107 minutes reported in 2022. While YouTube still remains king among streaming, it shows TikTok’s short-form video format is catching up. # ⚓ FAIR ☛ The_Real_Border_Crisis:_Texas_vs._the_Constitution⠀⇛ The United States is on the verge of a constitutional crisis, one that enlivens the nationalist fervor of Trump America and that centers on a violent, racist closed-border policy. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Tajik,_Russian_Nationals_Suspected_Of_Deadly_Church Shooting_In_Istanbul⠀⇛ One Tajik and one Russian were detained in Istanbul over a church shooting, Turkish Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya said late on January 28, describing the two men as members of the Islamic State (IS) extremist organization. # § Russia, Belarus, and War in Ukraine⠀➾ # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Man_Detained_Over_Mass_Rallies_In_Russia's Bashkortostan_Dies_In_Custody⠀⇛ Rifat Dautov, a resident of Ufa, the capital of Russia's Republic of Bashkortostan, has died after police detained him last week in a village on suspicion of taking part in mass rallies protesting the imprisonment of noted Bashkir activist Fail Alsynov in mid-January. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Kremlin_Critic_Kara-Murza_Reportedly_Moved From_Siberian_Prison⠀⇛ Russian rights defender Aleksandr Podrabinek said on January 29 that a letter he sent to longtime Kremlin critic Vladimir Kara- Murza at the IK-6 prison in the Siberian city of Omsk was sent back marked "return to sender." # ⚓ Insight Hungary ☛ Hungary_is_the_last_one_to_approve Sweden's_NATO_bid⠀⇛ Turkey has approved Sweden's NATO accession, leaving Hungary as the last member yet to greenlight the bid. Despite persistent calls from Western allies urging progress on Sweden's application, Hungary remains a focal point after more than a year of delays. The country's far-right prime minister Viktor Orbán, who has consistently pledged that Hungary wouldn't be the last NATO member to endorse Sweden's entry into the alliance, is under scrutiny following Turkey's parliamentary nod on Monday. # ⚓ AntiWar ☛ Nancy_Pelosi’s_New_Adventures_in McCarthyism⠀⇛ Over the weekend, noting the ongoing opposition to the far-right Israeli regime’s war on the civilians of Gaza, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi charged that: …For them to call for a cease-fire is Putin’s message, Mr. Putin’s message. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Imprisoned_Russian_Rights_Defender_Gregori Vinter_Asks_Putin_To_Euthanize_Him⠀⇛ Russian activist Gregori Vinter, who was sentenced to three years in prison earlier this month on a charge of distributing "false" information about Russian armed forces, has asked President Vladimir Putin to euthanize him "to avoid an excruciating death of diabetes." # ⚓ teleSUR ☛ Russian_President_Putin_To_Seek_Re-Election in_March⠀⇛ Latest polls show that his campaign starts with the support of 80 percent of Russian citizens. # ⚓ France24 ☛ Blinken_warns_Ukraine's_gains_could_be reversed_without_more_US_aid⠀⇛ US Secretary of State Antony Blinken warned Monday that Ukraine's gains over two years of fighting were all in doubt without new US funding, as NATO's chief visited to lobby Congress. o § Environment⠀➾ # ⚓ New Statesman ☛ The_problem_with_heat_pumps⠀⇛ Still, their hesitancy is not unique. A 2022 survey by the sustainable consultancy firm, DG Cities, found that almost half of respondents (46 per cent) only knew “a little” about heat pumps. One in five said they had heard of the systems, but didn’t actually know what they were. Misinformation about heat pumps – whether they work effectively in cold weather or will reduce a bill- payer’s heating costs – is rife. Last week, the Energy Minister, Martin Callanan told Sky News’ ClimateCast that “vested interests” are “funding campaigns of misinformation” about heat pumps. # ⚓ DeSmog ☛ Reform_Mayor_Candidate_Attends_Anti-ULEZ_Protest Run_by_‘Climate_Lockdown’_Conspiracy_Theory_Group⠀⇛ The Reform UK candidate for London mayor has been accused of ignoring science after joining a rally organised by conspiracy theorists who say green policies are a plot to impose “climate lockdowns”.   Howard Cox, director of the FairFuelUK lobby group against charges on motorists, attended Saturday’s protest in Trafalgar Square against London’s ultra- low emission zone (ULEZ) expansion, which has been seized on by opponents of climate action.  # § Energy/Transportation⠀➾ # ⚓ Modern Diplomacy ☛ Crypto…Terrorism?⠀⇛ Whilst the onset of the digital age and the subsequent rise of cryptocurrencies has heralded an era of exciting innovation, it has also brought with it unprecedented and ever-changing challenges to global security. # ⚓ Bloomberg ☛ Electricity_Demand_at_Data_Centers_Seen Doubling_in_Three_Years⠀⇛ There are more than 8,000 data centers globally, with about 33% in the US, 16% in Europe and close to 10% in China, with more planned. In Ireland, where data centers are developing rapidly, the IEA expects the sector to consume 32% of the country’s total electricity by 2026 compared to 17% in 2022. Ireland currently has 82 centers; 14 are under construction and 40 more are approved. # ⚓ The Atlantic ☛ Don’t_San_Francisco–ize_Clean_Energy⠀⇛ Many environmentalists, civic groups, and sympathetic lawmakers fail to recognize that demanding too much community input and legal review has a downside. But the consequences are evident in San Francisco, where, as The New York Times recently noted, getting permission to build new housing takes more than 1,100 days on average, and the city government has failed for years to navigate its own process for installing a single public toilet. In addressing the climate crisis, the U.S. does not have the luxury of time. # ⚓ Luke Harris ☛ The_Fast_and_the_Featureless:_Features I_like_and_don’t_like_in_vehicles.⠀⇛ I wish public transit was more of an option, but until then here’s what I look for in a vehicle. The list is heavy on details because implementations vary by manufacturer, and things that might fall into the common sense category are often missing. For example, the loaner vehicle I’m driving has a one-touch lower feature for the driver’s window, and I expect it to work for raising the window. It does not. # ⚓ Tracy Durnell ☛ Electrifying_my_house:_the_first_year with_a_heat_pump⠀⇛ Now that I’ve had a heat pump for a year, I wanted to share my experience, because I had questions and misconceptions that I didn’t get answered beforehand.

According to Source, the company has cut its workforce by 6 percent, which includes roles across technology, call centres, and corporate roles. Besides Swiggy, other tech companies like Flipkart, Microsoft, Amazon, and Google have also announced employee layoffs. Swiggy and Flipkart have announced staff layoffs. Approximately 350–400 workers, or about 7% of the company, will be fired by Swiggy. According to speculations and sources, people from tech, a portion of the customer service division, and corporate will lose their jobs. Notably, the company has 6,000 employees, and the staff layoff is part of an effort for efficient operations. However, sources say that the Bangalore-based firm is laying off its employees because of its planned IPO. o § AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics⠀➾ # ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ A_tangled_mess:_Government_rules_for social_media_security_lack_clarity⠀⇛ It’s a straightforward question that would seem to lend itself to a straightforward answer, but instead reveals a tangled web of authorities and rules.

Some Xbox and ZeniMax employees were also affected, according to the memo. The layoffs come roughly three months after Microsoft closed a $69 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard. # ⚓ Site36 ☛ Antifa_trial_in_Budapest:_One_defendant_admits membership_in_organisation,_two_deny_accusations⠀⇛ # ⚓ France24 ☛ Former_PM_Stubb,_Green_candidate_Haavisto_set for_Finland's_presidential_run-off⠀⇛ Favourites Alexander Stubb and Pekka Haavisto on Sunday qualified for the second round of Finland's presidential election, which took place against a backdrop of soured relations with neighbouring Russia. o § Censorship/Free Speech⠀➾ # ⚓ Project Censored ☛ Battling_Censorship,_Propaganda,_and Nuclear_Colonialism⠀⇛ # ⚓ Omicron Limited ☛ When_Chinese_citizens_are_surveyed anonymously,_support_for_party_and_government_plummets⠀⇛ The study by researchers at the USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences shows an enormous drop in citizen support for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and government policies when citizens are surveyed using a method that hides their identities and makes them feel more anonymous than a typical survey. # ⚓ uni Cambridge ☛ Do_Chinese_Citizens_Conceal_Opposition_to the_CCP_in_Surveys?_Evidence_from_Two_Experiments⠀⇛ Most public opinion research in China uses direct questions to measure support for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and government policies. These direct question surveys routinely find that over 90 per cent of Chinese citizens support the government. From this, scholars conclude that the CCP enjoys genuine legitimacy. In this paper, we present results from two survey experiments in contemporary China that make clear that citizens conceal their opposition to the CCP for fear of repression. When respondents are asked directly, we find, like other scholars, approval ratings for the CCP that exceed 90 per cent. When respondents are asked in the form of list experiments, which confer a greater sense of anonymity, CCP support hovers between 50 per cent and 70 per cent. This represents an upper bound, however, since list experiments may not fully mitigate incentives for preference falsification. The list experiments also suggest that fear of government repression discourages some 40 per cent of Chinese citizens from participating in anti-regime protests. Most broadly, this paper suggests that scholars should stop using direct question surveys to measure political opinions in China. # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Russia_sentences_72-year-old_woman_to_5.5_years_in prison_for_sharing_two_social_media_posts⠀⇛ The Russian authorities launched the case against Yevgenia Maiboroda in response to two posts she shared on the social media site VKontakte. One reportedly contained information about the number of Russian servicemen killed in the Ukraine, while the other was described by the Net Freedoms Project simply as an “emotional video.” # ⚓ RFA ☛ London_YouTuber_hid_in_van,_received_death_threats after_piano_face-off⠀⇛ Kavanagh, who turned up at the piano again on Friday with a plushie Winnie the Pooh toy and a sticker bearing a reference to the Tiananmen Square massacre – both of which are banned by Chinese censors – said the incident was about defending freedom of speech and artistic expression. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Moscow_Court_Issues_Arrest_Warrants_For_Four_Of Navalny's_Self-Exiled_Associates⠀⇛ A Moscow court on January 29 issued arrest warrants for imprisoned opposition politician Aleksei Navalny's self-exiled associates -- Maria Pevchikh, Kira Yarmysh, Dmitry Nizovtsev, and Anna Biryukova -- on charges of organizing an extremist group.

What follows is a brief overview of what I think that process might entail, mostly in the form of notes to myself to help me figure out what I should be working on in 2024. If any of this strikes a chord with you, drop me a note and I’ll keep you in the loop. # ⚓ BW Businessworld Media Pvt Ltd ☛ Internet_Bandwidth Consumption_Jumps_52%_Across_24_Indian_Cities:_Report⠀⇛ The study highlighted Bangalore, Hyderabad, Delhi and Chennai as the leading four cities.

Instead, the changes announced are carefully tailored to address the DMA and nothing more. These aren’t product announcements. They’re regulatory compliance responses by a company that has made clear in various contexts that it will respect local law that impacts its products, but isn’t interested in letting one country (or countries in this case) dictate how it designs its products. I’ll revisit this point at the end of this story, but it’s important to keep in mind from the outset. Once you view the details through this prism, you can see the shape of the DMA in every facet of what Apple announced, which makes the situation easier to understand. o ⚓ Digital Music News ☛ Spotify_Demands_EU_Regulatory_Action_Against Apple’s_Continued_App_Store_‘Extortion’:_‘The_Ball_Is_in_Your Court,_European_Commissioners’⠀⇛ Ahead of a March deadline for companies including Apple and Google to comply with the entirety of the EU’s Digital Markets Act (DMA), Spotify last week revealed plans for a revamped app experience in Europe. Now, to the streaming giant’s apparent dismay, Apple has unveiled its “new business terms for apps in the EU” – including a flat-rate fee for installs. o ⚓ Tech Central (South Africa) ☛ Spotify_calls_Apple’s_EU_changes_a ‘farce’⠀⇛ From early March, developers will be able to offer alternative app stores on iPhones and opt out of using Apple’s in-app payment system, which charges commissions of up to 30%, under the bloc’s new rules. However, developers will still be required to pay a “core technology fee” of Є0.50 per user account per year under Apple’s new EU regime. “From the beginning, Apple has been clear that they didn’t like the idea of abiding by the DMA. So they’ve formulated an undesirable alternative to the status quo,” the music streaming giant said on Friday. o ⚓ Apple Inc ☛ Understanding_the_Core_Technology_Fee_for_iOS_apps_in the_European_Union⠀⇛ The Core Technology Fee (CTF) is an element of the new business terms in the European Union (EU) that reflects the value Apple provides developers through ongoing investments in the tools, technologies, and services that enable them to build and share innovative apps with users around the world. Developers can choose to remain on the App Store’s current business terms or adopt the new business terms for iOS apps in the EU. o ⚓ Dave Rupert ☛ At_last,_browser_choice*⠀⇛ The EU Digital Markets Act is making waves in the Apple ecosystem.

While there are other browsers on the iOS App Store, they’re all Safari/Webkit under the hood due to non-competitive App Store submission guidelines. o ⚓ Stephen Hackett ☛ Understanding_Apple’s_Proposed_Changes_to_Meet the_DMA’s_Demands⠀⇛ John Voorhees has a great walk-through of the changes Apple is making in response to the DMA: [...] o § Trademarks⠀➾ # § Right of Publicity⠀➾ # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ George_Carlin’s_Family_Takes_This_AI Bullshit_to_Court⠀⇛ The estate of George Carlin filed a suit in California over the “George Carlin: I’m Glad I’m Dead” comedy special produced by Dudesy. The lawsuit claims the special constitutes copyright infringement and was created to profit off of Carlin’s likeness without permission. According to the suit, the estate is seeking the immediate removal of the special and an unspecified amount for damages. # ⚓ Quartz ☛ Taylor_Swift_AI_deepfakes_took_over_the Internet._Here's_what_to_know⠀⇛ Deepfakes use a form of machine learning called deep learning, whereby an algorithm gets fed examples and learns to produce outputs that resemble them, generating an artificial image, video, or audio. # ⚓ MIT Technology Review ☛ Dear_Taylor_Swift,_we’re sorry_about_those_explicit_deepfakes⠀⇛ First, the bad news. At the moment, we have no good ways to fight this. I just published a story looking at three ways we can combat nonconsensual deepfake porn, which include watermarks and data-poisoning tools. But the reality is that there is no neat technical fix for this problem. The fixes we do have are still experimental and haven’t been adopted widely by the tech sector, which limits their power. # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Microsoft_and_X_respond_to_Taylor Swift_AI_misuse_with_increased_content_moderation⠀⇛ The politics that are in play aside, Microsoft was at the center of the Taylor Swift story: The company’s AI-powered Designer software appears to have been used to generate the images. # ⚓ The Verge ☛ Trolls_have_flooded_X_with_graphic_Taylor Swift_AI_fakes⠀⇛ One of the most prominent examples on X attracted more than 45 million views, 24,000 reposts, and hundreds of thousands of likes and bookmarks before the verified user who shared the images had their account suspended for violating platform policy. The post was live on the platform for around 17 hours prior to its removal. But as users began to discuss the viral post, the images began to spread and were reposted across other accounts. Many still remain up, and a deluge of new graphic fakes have since appeared. In some regions, the term “Taylor Swift AI” became featured as a trending topic, promoting the images to wider audiences. # ⚓ India Times ☛ Taylor_Swift,_Joe_Biden:_massive deepfakes_tsunami_floods_the_[Internet]⠀⇛ Pornographic images of singer Taylor Swift, robocalls of US President Joe Biden’s voice, and videos of dead children and teenagers detailing their own deaths all have gone viral — but not one of them was real. # ⚓ Tech Central (South Africa) ☛ Taylor_Swift_searches blocked_on_X_as_fake_explicit_images_spread⠀⇛ White House press secretary Karine Jean- Pierre called the fake images “alarming” on Friday, and said social media companies have a responsibility to prevent the spread of such misinformation. Jean-Pierre said at a news briefing that lax enforcement against false images, possibly created by artificial intelligence, disproportionately affects women. # ⚓ CoryDoctorow ☛ I_assure_you,_an_AI_didn't_write_a terrible_"George_Carlin"_routine⠀⇛ Maybe that's what happened with the George Carlinbot 3000: the Dudesy dudes fell in love with their own vision for a fully automated luxury Carlinbot and forgot that they had made it up, so they just cheated, assuming they would eventually be able to make a fully operational Battle Carlinbot. That's basically the Theranos story: a teenaged "entrepreneur" was convinced that she was just about to produce a seemingly impossible, revolutionary diagnostic machine, so she faked its results, abetted by investors, customers and others who wanted to believe: [...] # ⚓ US News And World Report ☛ X_Pauses_Taylor_Swift Searches_as_Deepfake_Explicit_Images_Spread⠀⇛ After the images began spreading online, the singer's devoted fanbase of “Swifties” quickly mobilized, launching a counteroffensive on X and a #ProtectTaylorSwift hashtag to flood it with more positive images of the pop star. Some said they were reporting accounts that were sharing the deepfakes. # ⚓ RTL ☛ 'Taylor_Swift'_searches_blocked_on_X_after_AI porn_outrage⠀⇛ This decision comes amid criticism from fans, the White House, and others regarding the circulation of explicit content using Swift's likeness. # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ Taylor_Swift_AI_Porn_Forces_Changes_at Twitter_and_Microsoft⠀⇛ “Something went wrong,” says X when you search for “Taylor Swift” on Monday morning. “Try reloading.” o § Copyrights⠀➾ # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Research_Suggests_A_Large_Proportion_Of_Web Material_In_Languages_Other_Than_English_Is_Machine Translations_Of_Poor_Quality_Texts⠀⇛ The latest generative AI tools are certainly impressive, but they bring with them a wide range of complex problems, as numerous posts on Techdirt attest. A new academic paper, published on arXiv, raises more of them, but from a new angle. Entitled “A Shocking Amount of the Web is Machine Translated: Insights from Multi-Way Parallelism”, it studies the impact of today’s low-cost AI translation tools on the online world: " We explore the effects that the long-term availability of low cost Machine Translation (MT) has had on the web. We show that content on the web is often translated into many languages, and the quality of these multi-way translations indicates they were primarily created using MT. " # ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ Music_Labels_'Gramophone'_Copyright_Lawsuit Comes_Too_Late,_Internet_Archive_Says⠀⇛ Several major music labels including Capitol, Sony, and UMG, sued the Internet Archive over its phonograph archiving project, Great 78. Hundreds of millions of dollars in potential damages are at stake but IA says that many of the claims are simply too late. IA has asked the court to dismiss those that occurred over three years ago, citing an RIAA cease-and-desist letter as evidence. # ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ Viewing_Illegal_Streams:_No_Cautions,_Fines or_Arrests_Say_GM_Police⠀⇛ After two UK regional police forces refused to supply information on the number of people cautioned, fined or arrested for simply watching illegal streams, this weekend it emerged that Greater Manchester Police received the same request and actually responded. For the years 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023, the number of people cautioned, fined and/or arrested for simply watching illegal streams was.....zero. o § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ # § Personal/Opinions⠀➾ # ⚓ 24C01_animal_sounds⠀⇛ ok so ive been working on this one project for like 2 years now I think? my fantasy console project. it has had multiple redesigns over [some timespan] starting with FLC16 which I made before I even knew how CPUs actually worked. after that came the "batbox" and then "woof" which had two different versions. i now will not touch it anymore because its FINISHED. # ⚓ Life_is______⠀⇛ I don't know what to say that hasn't been said already. Everyone already knows life is hard, but sometimes I don't think even words can describe the borderline confusion you get when you step onto that yellow brick road called Life. Do people just live life without questioning every single thing? # ⚓ OpenQuest_Dungeons⠀⇛ The current version of OpenQuest is probably a little more stripped down than I prefer for my D100 systems, but it's a good system, of the Mongoose RuneQuest lineage. OpenQuest Dungeons is designed to ease a DM and players of “The World's Favorite Fantasy Game” to the different pace and approach of dungeons in a D100 game. It contains a general introduction to OpenQuest for those used to the other games dungeons, some stock NPCs, a list of 26 traps expressed in OpenQuest mechanics, and three short dungeons. The adventures made me want to run them, so that's a plus. # ⚓ 🔤SpellBinding:_HLOYSTR_Wordo:_DOZER⠀⇛ # § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ A01_Don't_buy_autonomy,_buy_efficiency⠀⇛ If you plan to buy an EV Car, you're perhaps looking for data like price, autonomy, power, time to recharge 60% of your battery.... Perhaps real consumption in KWh/100 km. Or perhaps you don't understand what are all these figures and names. Most of the cars cited below are on the European Market, and also on the US/Canadian Market. There are some Chinese cars too, the first to be available on those markets. # ⚓ veilidchat_part2⠀⇛ the next day I tried to run veilidchat and it failed to finish loading. today I figured it was probably because it needed some of those env vars set that I had set to get it built. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.
