⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Corporate Media, a Cheerleader of Wall
Street Facade, Spent Days Saying "META" and "MSFT" Lifted "the Market", But
Their Debt Soared⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧


posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 03, 2025


Facebook's debt has never been higher (despite the many mass layoffs or
supposed "cost reductions")


  🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Wall_Street_set_for_strong_open_as_Microsoft,_Meta_soar.
             Stocks_is_not_reality;_It's_barely_even_perception⦈_


To be very clear, "META" and "MSFT" have growing debt [1, 2] (we'll write more
about this soon), so this ludicrous idea "the market" is up (whose market
anyway?) does not make sense.


As Ryan put it this morning, "the stock market is up again while they admit
we'll start running out of things in a couple weeks. This is insanity."


An associate reminds us that stock prices are based completely on fantasy
mindsets or LARPing with real money as game counters. "Firing software
engineers makes a tech firms stock prices rise ... Stock buybacks are allowed
... Executive bonuses are based on stock price, and paid in stock ..." (and in
the US you can sell short, not in other places).


The associate dubbed this "legalized gambling" but with rules slanted in your
favour the more money you have.


Stay tuned as we'll write about the_"hidden"_debt_crisis_very_soon (the cuts
didn't solve the issue; debt with high interest isn't being repaid/paid back
and the economy sank). We wrote about this some days ago in relation to IBM:

🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Celebrating_20_Years_of_the_OASIS_Open_Document_Format_(ODF)
Standard⦈_


Two decades ago, way back when I was a freedom-passionate postgraduate student,
a solution was put forth to tackle bad habits which had long rewarded
Microsoft's criminal activities (and not limited to competition crimes). That
goes back to the 90s, possibly even the 80s (for office suites alone).


Back then phones were really phones (some had basic games on them), PDAs had
some basic functionality (or useful functionalities like calendar/s, sometimes
outward connectivity), and Web-based "applications" (now typically shortened as
"webapps" and increasingly made worse, bloated, spying-centric) were still
somewhat experimental. People were rightly reluctant to adopt these. Many
people used Windows and Office. To use "the phone" (prior to Android and iOS)
meant all sorts of things, but few people relied only on a phone to get things
"done online" (or even offline for that matter).


Remember that the iPhone wasn't released until 2007, back when early
incarnations of so-called "social" (control) media such as Digg.com created/
spread a lot of hype about it. "To get things done online with a phone," an
associate recalls, back "then meant a special adapter to connect your notebook
or laptop to the phone and use the phone basically as a modem."


Many years have passed and nowadays many companies use "online" "webapps" to
collaborate on various things, not necessarily in webforms, documents, and
spreadsheets. Many who choose office suites for their workflows don't rely on
Microsoft and since the formats are "whatever is online" they aren't quite
aware of standards - that is actually a recipe for vendor lock-in. It's a
related problem or a branch of the same thing.


I myself use ODF if I ever use LibreOffice for stuff. Many others do the same.
But we now live in a world where Windows_is_"less_than_a_quarter" (20 years ago
it was over 90%) and most people get hooked on "apps", which may or may not
include some rich text editors.


OOXML_was_all_about_crimes_(like_Microsoft_bribing,_cheating_and_defaming
people). We wrote many hundreds of articles about it and have links to the
OOXML scandals, including in Scandinavia and the US for example. No stone was
left unturned in this international campaign of Microsoft corruption. This was
very visible in Europe. The standards bodies there and elsewhere were attacked
and subverted, each in a very different manner. Remember that ISO/IEC 29500 was
fast-tracked despite not being eligible for fast-tracking. That was an early
sign of trouble. The various national standards bodies were simply not allowed
to reject OOXML, through_various_unethical_and_semi-legal_underhanded_tricks as
happened_in_Norway (to name one example among several_dozens of nations).


This is also relevant to Microsoft's attacks against Techrights and Tux
Machines, an associate argues, because Microsoft_attacked_Tim_Bray's_wife's
company and crushed it in revenge for his negative technical review of their
specification.


Bray repeatedly criticised OOXML; as an XML pioneer he should know. He also
blasted Microsoft for its brutal assault on standards.


OOXML is not implemented by anyone or by any company, not even Microsoft (it's
very important to point out that no one uses ISO/IEC 29500, not even Microsoft
itself). Files like ".docx" are a mystery - an enigma to anyone but Microsoft,
whose software intentionally vandalises ODF files (castrating parts of them
irrecoverably).


People must also remember the very large elephants in the room; don't forget
software patents [1, 2, 3] and how incomplete OOXML is. The entire thing is a
farce; it was a farce right from the get-go.


Over 20 years ago ODF was very much fit for purpose and it still works the same
way it worked back then, even if OASIS approved newer and better (more complex
is not always better) versions of it.


Anyway though, about ODF and its merits there's still online information;
there's this_essay_by_David_A._Wheeler, dated almost 20 years ago. It used to
be in Groklaw as well, but the site is partly broken (at_least_it's_back_online
after about 6 months offline [1, 2]).


More important than formats and standards is the_adoption_and_usage_of_Free
software. Using ODF in Microsoft Office is a fool's_errand and since Office is
proprietary, the key problem isn't being addressed.


To take charge of your data (i.e. your work/livelihood) use something like
Calligra_Suite or LibreOffice.


Days ago The_Document_Foundation_wrote:


     ⚓ Celebrating 20 Years of the OASIS Open Document Format (ODF)
     Standard⠀⇛


     A Milestone for Open Document Formats and Digital Sovereignty


     Today, The Document Foundation joins the open source software and
     open standards community in celebrating the 20th anniversary of the
     ratification of the Open Document Format (ODF) as an OASIS standard.
     Two decades after its approval in 2005, ODF is the only open standard
     for office documents, promoting digital independence,
     interoperability and content transparency worldwide.


     Originally created as an XML-based format to enable universal access
     to documents across platforms and software from multiple vendors, ODF
     has become a technology policy pillar for governments, educational
     institutions and organisations that choose open, vendor-independent
     formats to assert their digital sovereignty.


     “ODF is much more than a technical specification: it is a symbol of
     freedom of choice, support for interoperability and protection of
     users from the commercial strategies of Big Tech,” said Eliane
     Domingos, Chairwoman of the Document Foundation. “In a world
     increasingly dominated by proprietary ecosystems, ODF guarantees
     users complete control over their content, free from restrictions.”


     ODF is the native file format of LibreOffice, the most widely used
     and well-known open source office suite, and is supported by a wide
     range of other applications. Its relevance – twenty years after its
     creation – is a testament to the foresight of its creators and the
     open source community’s commitment to openness and collaboration.


     ODF has been adopted as an official standard by ISO (as ISO/IEC
     26300) and by many governments on all continents to support digital
     sovereignty strategies and public procurement policies to ensure
     persistent and transparent access to content.


     To celebrate this milestone, from today The Document Foundation will
     be publishing a series of presentations and documents on its blog
     that illustrate the unique features of ODF, tracing its history from
     the development and standardisation process through the activities of
     the Technical Committee for the submission of version 1.3 to ISO and
     the standardisation of version 1.4.


     In addition, representatives from the Document Foundation will
     participate in open source community events to talk about the Open
     Document Format and highlight its importance to the FOSS ecosystem.
     The LibreOffice conference will have an entire track dedicated to
     ODF, coordinated by the OASIS Technical Committee.


Many thanks to all those who made it possible. No more ".doc*" anything being
passed around in our home, and usually ".pdf" (or ".ps") files are not needed
either.


But let us also remember: the key thing is to move people (eventually) to Free
software, not just open standards anyone can feasibly implement and/or handle.
Standards can be a strong prerequisite when there's a high exit barrier. Data
is often kept as "hostage".


Even with open formats, if the program used is proprietary it can exercise a
lot of control over users and thus (over time more and more so) abuse them.
There are many examples of this predating the coining (by Cory) of
"enshittification".


An associate insists that Adobe and Microsoft are making file formats less
powerful because their aim for control of the data through 'cloud' services
where people's data no longer resides under their own control but far away on
servers operated by hosting companies (Microsoft and Adobe).


Adobe is charging a lot of money for really rudimentary and lousily-done stuff.
We_covered_this_topic_last_summer. It has become even more_urgent a matter
since then.


The bottom line is, use and celebrate ODF. Spread the word. Ask other people to
adopt ODF. There's more material related to this in the past week's posts_by
Mike_Saunders, including "Germany_committing_to_ODF_and_open_document
standards". █

Slop is overruning some sites


         🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Slop:_Sharing_knowledge_is_fundamental..⦈_


THIS morning I was browsing the Web for news and/or updates. I have a list of
about 20 sites or pertinent pages that I manually check every day, just in case
something important happens and appears (or gets formally reported). There are
no RSS feeds for these.


One frustrating thing is that many videos in YouTube (which I browse via
Invidious gateways) are utterly useless GC (no, do not call them "AI"! There's
no intelligence in these, none whatsoever!), "shorts" (symptom of social
control media, notably TikTok), or people uploading meaningless junk from a
spyphohe. To a certain extent the same applies to new images detected online
and even to text. They're polluting the Web.


Only a day ago there was this:


  🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇20-Year_Browser_History_Privacy_Flaw_Prompts_Chrome_136
                                   Release⦈_


It's not even about "Linux" and it is a fake article, or LLM slop:


🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Let’s_examine_the_Chrome_bugs_that_prompted_this_update,_how
Chrome_136_addresses_these_issues,_and_what_steps_we_should_take_to_ensure_our
                           systems_are_protected.⦈_


We need to combat slop, both online and offline. We don't want people or
companies sending us E-mail which is slop; it's time-wasting. More_companies
realise_chatbots_saved_them_no_money_and_only_cost_them_business_(clients_got
upset_and_left). The layoffs were due to financial issues, not the potential of
over-hyped and falsely marketed LLMs. Disregard the ludicrous excuses. Layoffs
should not be conflated with false "innovation".


As we said many times before, calling out the worst offenders/culprits can
help. After a while they feel guilty if not humiliated*; then they stop doing
it, if it's not_too_late_already. Even doing_it_only_once may lead to future
suspicion that everything else they publish is fake. It is a reasonably fair
presumption. They do not flag or label their output as slop, so common sense
and gut feeling (or "pedigree" based on track record) chime in.


Together, through a movement of integrity and solidarity, we can marginalise
the spread of slop in all its forms, including_code. █

* There is no "acceptable" level of slop. Some people think playing with slop
makes them SEEM clever or even INNOVATIVE. That's like shoplifters thinking
they seem "brave". Later they realise most people view them as undesirable
parasites.

⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Microsoft's Debt Grew 2.1 Billion Dollars
in the Past 3 Months Alone or 8.2 Billion in the Past Half a
Year⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧


posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 03, 2025


That's very_different from what the_mainstream_press tells the public,
including shareholders:


🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇The_tables_summarizes_Microsoft’s_Total_Debt_and_common_size
                         over_the_last_few_quarters⦈_


A few hours_ago it was revealed, at long last (late on a Saturday), that since
the beginning of the year Microsoft's debt grew by almost a billion dollars per
month, continuing the trend that we_saw_last_year (Apple's_debt_grew_by_about
half_a_billion_per_month_in_the_same_time_period; they_both_have_problems).
Microsoft is basically borrowing more and more money whilst it lays off tens of
thousands of workers (not counting contractors, temps etc.) to reduce costs and
it still needs to borrow more money while_faking_assets_in_the_balance_sheet,
just like_at_IBM. To borrow more money when the interest rates are this high is
a last resort or a panicky recourse.


It's only good for those who net huge bonuses based on quarterly "targets".


This is not going to end well. Microsoft trying to fool tech-illiterate
investors by name-dropping buzzwords and storytelling (tall, extravagant claims
that nobody can verify/audit [1, 2]) is only a temporary strategy of delay,
delay, delay. Stalling tactics make the bubble even bigger before it implodes
and the biggest financial press now actively participates in spreading lies for
Microsoft. Pivot to AI caught one of the leading papers spreading_fake_news
(just like IBM). It said: "The numbers Microsoft will admit to on AI are that
profits are down from AI infrastructure spending."


🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇No,_Microsoft_did_not_state_‘strong_AI_demand’_in_Q1_2025_—
                               the_FT_is_wrong⦈_


That's in spite of canceling all sorts of major projects and facilities [1, 2],
contrary_to_lies_told_back_in_January by the President who last week lied to
Europe about commitments (non-existent_money_and_bribes). █


"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."

economies like South Africa as the following new_figures_show:

In their own words [1, 2]: "Media freedom and access to information feed into
the wider development objective of empowering people. Empowerment is a multi-
dimensional social and political process that helps people gain control over
their own lives. This can only be achieved through access to accurate, fair and
unbiased information, representing a plurality of opinions, and the means to
actively communicate vertically and horizontally, thereby participating in the
active life of the community."


From_the_European_Parliament, which values press freedom until that press
exposes_corruption_at_the_European_Union/Commission/Parliament/Council and EPO
(enabled by EU politicians, who selfishly turn a blind eye to EU crimes):


     In 1993, the United Nations (UN) General Assembly declared 3 May
     World Press Freedom Day, acting on a recommendation adopted by
     UNESCO's General Conference in 1991. This year will mark the 32nd
     anniversary of the day, with UNESCO and other international partners
     organising special events around the world.

⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Why Law Firms and Courts in Particular
Should Dump Microsoft⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧


posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 03, 2025


Giving a notoriously corrupt and chronically_law-breaking_company control over
one's systems and_data is a recipe for disaster. Many lawyers agree, but they
talk the talk, not walk the walk. The same applies to distinguished or high-
level courts.


  🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Did_you_try_owning_your_own_systems?_No,_it's_too_hard⦈_


For the first time in my life I (and also my wife) filed lawsuits [1, 2]
against someone who had long abused us. So I got further insight into how the
British legal system works. I also spoke to many law firms and communicated
with courts.


Over time I came to realise that Microsoft, an American firm with really bad
reputation, has a technical grip on systems and data of police departments [1,
2, 3, 4], law firms, and courtrooms. I last revisited_the_issue_2_years_ago in
relation to NDAs.


I worry that law firms and courts are giving Microsoft too much control. We'll
cover that in depth - maybe even a mini-series - in the future (now isn't the
right time, but that time will come). Aside from the fact that Microsoft is
increasingly intrusive, e.g. taking_screenshots_all_the_time_while_falsely
advertising_that_Orwellian_surveillance_as_"AI". This is a serious problem for
law firms and courts, not to mention various types of businesses, police
departments and so on. We already know, based on verified reports and
unequivocal admissions from Microsoft (e.g. [1, 2]) that Microsoft grossly
misuses its technical ability - even if it's illegal - to read people's E-mails
and other communications (e.g. audio, video) for commercial reasons - to the
point of snooping on journalists and probably lawyers and judges too.


In the lawsuits we filed Microsoft is a party of interest. It's closely
involved in this case (the employer of the_second_SLAPP's_Claimant_at_the_time
of_the_Publications), so there's clearly a problem*. It would be absurd to let
the employer of one party be the host of any of this communication, more so at
the court level. Imagine Microsoft inviting judges over to Microsoft's
headquarters to issue a judgement on Microsoft (at the Microsoft campus). This
is what is sometimes happening here, except digitally (digital realm, not
physical realm).


Microsoft is quite unique in this regard; a company like Boeing does not have
control over data and systems of British police, courts, and law firms. It
should not be OK for Microsoft to be the exception.


So in general, what we have is high-quality, slam-dunk evidence of abuse/misuse
of process by foreign people working for a foreign company looking to hide its
criminal activities from the general public. And it would be wrong for the
process to be deal with by this company.


In fact, given various provisions and promises associated with legal protocols,
it probably should not even be legal to use Microsoft.


An associate explains: "The other thing which is important but universally
ignored would be the details in the Microsoft licensing which not even law
firms read, whether they have an "IT department" or not."


Printed out, argues this associate, all the relevant licenses and EULAs are
about 2cm of A4 paper for your standard, fully stocked, fully updated Windows
desktop. It's worse if any Microsoft services or servers are involved.


"The tldr there," the associate explains, "is that the license grants (or did
when I last read through such a stack) the right for Microsoft to read and
change files on the computer remotely, not limited to system files**."


That then has severe repercussions for attorney-client privilege in the case of
law firms and courts - a subset of privacy.


We hope that, over time, no cases in any courts will be accessible to
Microsoft. More so in cases that implicate Microsoft itself. █

* Microsoft must not have access to any of the communications at any point.
This is very clearly a case of abusive litigation by two American people,
professionally and personally connected, filing two connected frivolous cases
using the same lawyer and same barrister for strategic_reasons. There's an
impending_complaint_with_the_SRA_over_this_abusive_litigation; several law
firms deem this abusive, and that's based on the legal/technical term, moreover
based on their studying of the filings (press NGOs referred these to them). It
must be noted that one common denominator here is Microsoft-affiliated_people
trying to suppress, remove, or censor information that is embarrassing to
Microsoft. It would be harder to recover the cost from them who engage in
abusive litigation, as they hide in their dad's home or some cabin in_a_forest.
They have a "limited liability" "gun for hire" with hardly any money left in
the bank, so holding the lawyers financially accountable for abuse would be
hard too.

Talking about "clown" and "hey hi" (AI) - sometimes_"Quantum" - is like telling
bedtime_stories to infantile investors who don't understand those buzzwords


In the coming days we'll debunk some false claims made by Microsoft. There were
several Big Lies told and spread this past week. The media seems ever so eager
to spread lies and never scrutinise the lies told for hype's sake [1, 2]. One
very prominent example is only_days_old (IBM's_debt_exploding_out_of_control
while it falsely asserts it'll "invest" in the US more money than the company
is "worth"). Singing lullabies to the Dear Leader and to gullible shareholders.


So how is Windows doing anyway?


"The top line number from Valve for the Linux marketshare is 2.27% for April,"
Phoronix_notes. That's DRM and gaming, not the full picture. Windows used to
dominate almost 100% of this market segment. And now? Even_PewDiePie_moves
away.


As we showed yesterday, in the EU's largest economies GNU/Linux_is_up_sharply.
It's not just in Europe. Consider_South_America, including Brazil.


From February: statCounter:_GNU/Linux_Reaches_New_All-Time_Highs_in_Brazil_and
Argentina,_Android_Has_Reached_60%_in_South_America


From March: GNU/Linux_Reaches_5%_in_Brazil,_an_All-Time_High_According_to

Moreover, it_seems_like_in_recent_months_Brazilians_moved_to_GNU/Linux_more
than_to_Vista_11.


Microsoft without Windows cannot remain the size that it is now.


"I doubt anyone's going to want a $1500 Windows laptop with a $400-500 Trump
tax on it," Ryan says. "So they're screwed. Most of those Windows laptops have
notoriously bad firmware problems. They never seem to last long before Windows
stuffs itself and you're lucky if you can even re-install it somehow. But then
they cut off support unpredictably or make you update to some new version you
don't want that has more bad stuff in it."


Microsoft leveraged UEFI to vandalise_GNU/Linux_PCs. It's gonna have to pay for
it.


People are losing faith in laptops (or desktops) with UEFI. They don't trust
what's happening.


"I haven't had a single UEFI system that's worked right," Ryan adds. "The
firmware, that is. You can probably remove Windows if you try hard enough but
some of the problems follow you over to Linux because they're part of the
firmware. If you try to update the firmware, you're spinning the cylinder with
one bullet in there somewhere, and that's the one that kills the laptop. So if
it's not doing something absolutely unbearable *and* in warranty, you leave it
alone. You can end up having so many more problems than you do by not upgrading
it. My Chromebook just takes care of this for me, I don't even have to think
about it. It does not use UEFI. I haven't had any real problems with this
computer, which is probably the first time I could say that since PCs shipped
with legacy BIOS, where like 9 out of 10 of those worked fine, and that's not
so bad compared to UEFI."


All this complexity won't salvage the monopoly; it can urge people to flock to
alternatives.


Ryan concludes with: "Legacy BIOS was even better, because you could just boot
into FreeDOS and update the firmware there without any of those Windows Flasher
things. Complete garbage. Windows freezes up and stutters around and you hope
that the next thing that doesn't happen is that it just locks the last thing it
printed to the screen, rev the fan up, and have the main board die. You can't
do that with UEFI, boot to DOS and just do the update. So it's much much worse.
If the only thing that the Macs and Chromebooks give the user is they don't
have to deal with UEFI anymore that's almost worth everything else all by
itself. Lots of things the Chromebook does are not absolutely insane (like
Windows is) because they don't hire idiots and they haven't been around so long
that their OS is full of "Because forty years ago..." And all that adds up, you
know. In Windows it adds up."


Chromebooks are gaining_this_month. In some countries ChromeOS is now at over
10%. We named some in IRC.


Ryan comments on this: "I've run into so many things my Chromebook does (I have
a plus model, so it's all decked out.) where I'm like "Oh cool! I'll bet people
at Google made it do this because they actually use it and don't want to be
annoyed all the time." I wonder if anyone at Microsoft actually uses Windows
and just deals with all the firmware bugs, ransomware, OS stuffing itself at
least once a year, running hot, you know all that. I don't think there's
dogfooding at Microsoft. I think they go home and use something else from the
looks of it. If you use your own product eventually you fix the things that
annoy you and it doesn't do that anymore. There's a threshold where you
encounter that problem so many times that you'll fix it just so that won't
happen to you anymore."


Rupert_Goodwins_published_the_following_5_days_ago:


     § Windows isn't an OS, it's a bad habit that wants to become an
     addiction


     Think that next refresh is going to get better? The first step to
     freedom is admitting there's a problem


     Windows is at that awkward stage any global empire has to go through.
     Around one in five of the world population is a Windows user – 1.5
     billion humans. Aside from the relatively small slice that Mac takes,
     everyone else is happy with smartphones, so until we make contact
     with credulous aliens, there are no new worlds for Microsoft to
     conquer. In an industry obsessed with growth, this is untenable.


     It gets worse. For almost all of the existing user base, Windows 10
     is perfectly fine, so Windows 11 has to be forced down their gullets
     at gunpoint. You cannot have a fifth of humanity pinned like a moth
     collection to your desktop and not monetize them. This has led, as
     Dave Plummer notes, to an OS that's both tool and adversary, one that
     gives you AI whether you like it or not, and one that advertises and
     prods and pulls you toward paid services whether you like it or not.
     There is change for change's sake, and not for small change either.


     [...]


     Linux has a fetish for freedom that can still seem daunting, with a
     bouquet of options in an ecosystem that resembles a rain forest in
     its florid complexities. Pick a mainstream distro, preferably with a
     community of users you can get on with, and set about learning it. It
     will run on any old tat, although you'll do better with something
     swift, and it will never, never not ever, stick its feeding tube down
     your nose to pump in AI.


Are_government_bailouts_Microsoft's_last_resort? Can that work at_all? █


"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


"They [Microsoft] have the deepest of pockets, unlimited ambition, and they are
willing to lose money for years and years just to make sure that you don't make
any money, either. And they are mean, REALLY mean."

                # ⚓ A_Showerhead_Mod⠀⇛


                       Here's a long post about how I modified my
                       showerhead to get more pressure out of it. I've
                       encapsulated the bulk of the offensive blithering
                       in tags, so you can skip it if you'd like.


                       Governments around the world attempt to regulate
                       everything, from simple dirt all the way up to
                       profound human thought. Entire classes of human
                       beings sincerely believe that the correct mode of
                       existence in a shared space (i.e. the only
                       habitable planet in practical range) is to
                       centralize decision-making power, and force all to
                       comply. Fairness, justice, equal distribution, and
                       protection against threats (real, perceived,
                       fabricated, or otherwise) are sufficient ideals to
                       give the endeavor critical mass; we live in a time
                       of extraordinary regulation.


                # ⚓ [Old] Bored_but_also_discouraged⠀⇛


                       I really wanted to do some creative work today.
                       Pulled out brutaldon and started working on
                       converting my most recent personal patch to a patch
                       request on gitlab, only to get discouraged by
                       gitlab being so user-hostile. Went to take a look
                       at my own list of bugs and issues, and tried to get
                       cracking on one of them, but really couldn't. Kind
                       of the same for writing, there's really nothing I'm
                       in the mood to do.


                # ⚓ 🔤SpellBinding:_TINORSD_Wordo:_YENTA⠀⇛


                # ⚓ Micro_dosing_on_LSD⠀⇛


                       I started with 25microgram where a normal 'dose'
                       would be 100microgram.


                       On Sunday, I wanted to see the potency of a new
                       batch, but then realized the effect was interesting
                       enough to continue on a more regular fashion.


                       For LSD it's important to take 1 or 2 day break in
                       between. Mushroom micro dose regiment would
                       normally be more around 4 days on, 2 days off,
                       while CBD is more of a daily thing.

                             Raku, but I can do better!" so here it is as
                             valid Whitespace too.

                       Since President Donald Trump took office, his
                       administration laid off nearly half of the
                       Department of Education division that handles civil
                       rights investigations and shifted its focus. The
                       administration halted work on thousands of pending
                       discrimination cases while ordering investigations
                       aligned with its priorities.


                       Some people have spoken out about their cases being
                       in limbo or about not receiving updates. We know
                       there are thousands of other people who are
                       affected. We need your help to see the full picture
                       of how the dismantling of the Office for Civil
                       Rights is affecting students, parents, school
                       employees and their wider communities.


                # ⚓ Pro Publica ☛ Education_Department_Rolls_Back_Decades_of
                  Civil_Rights_Progress_Under_Trump⠀⇛


                       In California, the federal government was deep into
                       an investigation of alleged racial discrimination
                       at a school district where, a parent said, students
                       called a Black peer racial slurs and played
                       whipping sounds from their cellphones during a
                       lesson about slavery. Then the U.S. Department of
                       Education in March suddenly closed the California
                       regional outpost of its Office for Civil Rights and
                       fired all its employees there. That investigation
                       and others went silent.


                       In South Dakota, the OCR abruptly terminated its
                       work with a school district that had agreed to take
                       steps to end discrimination against its Native
                       American students. The same office that helped
                       craft the agreement to treat indigenous students
                       equally made a stunning about-face and decided in
                       March that helping Native American students would
                       discriminate against white students.

                # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Smart_Speaker_Gets_Brain_Surgery,_Line-Out⠀⇛


                       Sometimes you find a commercial product that is
                       almost, but not exactly perfect for your needs.
                       Your choices become: hack together a DIY
                       replacement, or hack the commercial product to do
                       what you need. [Daniel] chose door number two when
                       he realized his Yamaha MusicCast smart speaker was
                       perfect for his particular use case, except for its
                       tragic lack of line out. A little surgery and a
                       Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) breakout board
                       solved that problem.


                # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Ratcheting_Mechanism_Gives_Tendons_A_Tug⠀⇛


                       A common ratchet from your garage may work wonders
                       for tightening hard to reach bolts on whatever
                       everyday projects around the house. However, those
                       over at [Chronova Engineering] had a particularly
                       unusual project where a special ratchet mechanism
                       needed to be developed. And developed it was, an
                       absolutely beautiful machining job is done to
                       create a ratcheting actuator for tendon pulling.
                       Yes, this mechanical steampunk-esk ratchet is meant
                       for yanking on the fleshy strings found in all of
                       us.


                # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ A_Neat_E-Paper_Digit_Clock_(or_Four)⠀⇛


                       [sprite_tm] had a problem. He needed a clock for
                       the living room, but didn’t want to just buy
                       something off the shelf. In his own words, “It’s an
                       opportunity for a cool project that I’d rather not
                       let go to waste.” Thus started a project to build a
                       fun e-paper digit clock!


                # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ A_Gentle_Introduction_To_Impedance_Matching⠀⇛


                       Impedance matching is one of the perpetual
                       confusions for new electronics students, and for
                       good reason: the idea that increasing the impedance
                       of a circuit can lead to more power transmission is
                       frighteningly unintuitive at first glance. Even
                       once you understand this, designing a circuit with
                       impedance matching is a tricky task, and it’s here

                       Let me throw in a curveball—watching your 3D print
                       fail in real-time is so much more satisfying when
                       you have a crisp, up-close view of the nozzle
                       drama. That’s exactly what [Mellow Labs] delivers
                       in his latest DIY video: transforming a generic HD
                       endoscope camera into a purpose-built nozzle cam
                       for the Prusa Mini. The hack blends absurd
                       simplicity with delightful nerdy precision, and
                       comes with a full walkthrough, a printable mount,
                       and just enough bad advice to make it interesting.

                       In a major ruling this week, Apple has been forced
                       to stop taxing app developers a huge fee just for
                       the privilege of making apps on its platform. After
                       years of delay tactics and stonewalling (and, the
                       judge says, “outright lies” in court), Apple has to
                       allow app developers to offer in-app purchases
                       through stores outside the App Store, here in the
                       U.S. Apple will appeal the decision, but is
                       required to comply with it in the meantime.

                       On a surface level, Cook’s bet would appear to be
                       purely about the money, because isn’t it always?
                       (CFO Luca Maestri being on the side of charging the
                       commission certainly supports that idea.) But at
                       the same time, it’s hard to imagine that flouting
                       compliance like this was worth the few…billion,
                       perhaps?…dollars that Apple has made via this
                       mechanism over the last few years.


                       Which is why I think that more than purely being a
                       matter of bottom line, it was about exerting
                       control. Unfortunately, the end result probably
                       means Apple will lose even more control than it
                       will revenue.

                       that inspired by the English legal profession’s
                       structure. Although I think this is all still early
                       stage, emerging empirical research is showing how
                       generative Hey Hi (AI) usage often triggers
                       “metacognitive laziness” and “cognitive offloading”
                       in users. Studies particularly with law students
                       show reduced motivation to learn, diminished
                       ability to self-regulate, and less deep engagement
                       with material—gaining only improved short-term
                       performance on individual tasks.  Routine reliance
                       on Hey Hi (AI) usage is also showing an atrophy of
                       other critical skills.

                       It’s about damned time! I’ve been checking every
                       few days (since it showed up on all the other
                       platforms a month or so ago,) so it must have been
                       added at about the same time as the last system
                       update – IE the last 48 hours or so.


                       It’s really expensive, but I probably wont buy any
                       more switch games for the rest of the year or even
                       next year, so it’s not so bad, I guess.


                       Looks like the update also brought along the
                       virtual game cards feature that Nintendo has been
                       advertising lately for lending games to Family
                       members. Requires those in your family to update
                       and re-login on their devices though.


                # ⚓ IMAGINARY_FRIENDS⠀⇛


                       My thought of the day, jotted down this Saturday
                       while it's too cold to make me want to go out and
                       work on the Jag, and I'm too tired of researching
                       political parties over the last few late evenings
                       to do more of that. I have lots of hobbies, people
                       look for friends who share hobbies, yet I barely
                       have any friends and they don't share my hobbies.
                       Most of this is lack of desire on my part, but can
                       I think of a hobby where I would like to be
                       involved with others? Perhaps it's a hobby
                       bordering on a lifestyle, but I would like to group
                       around people trying to use old computers
                       efficiently in the modern environment. I'm writing
                       now from a mid-90s PC, and it could be interesting
                       to pool resources around circumventing hardware
                       obsolescence. Yet the closest existing group to
                       this would be the Permacomputing crowd, and they
                       seem all too theoretical rather than practical to
                       me. Or is that lack of flexibility on my part what
                       stops me?

                       I haven't done very well at researching political
                       partities for this election, only getting a few
                       done this year, though mostly ones I haven't looked
                       at closely before. It's all such a pain trying to
                       find time after the candidates are finally
                       announced by the AEC.


                       So here's a late election-eve notes dump that
                       probably won't help anyone this late in the game,
                       and as usual it's mostly parties I don't like
                       anyway. See my 2022 notes for others running again
                       this time who I expect haven't changed much:

                       When generating the manual page for my recent tool
                       for managing the Antenna filter, I found ChatGPT
                       had hallucinated the existence of manpage called
                       gemini(7).


                       Of course this is a thing which definitely ought to
                       exist. Has someone written something that would
                       work well and which is under an appropriate
                       licence? It would be helpful when shipping Gemini-
                       related tools for UNIX-like systems.


                # ⚓ Managing_filters_on_Antenna⠀⇛


                       I've created a little script that helps people
                       manage their filter on Antenna (or indeed the Other
                       Place).


                       This is particularly helpful when one needs to
                       exclude a pattern rather than the usual
                       subscribable URL.

          o ⚓ Tom MacWright ☛ Reading_Zanzibar⠀⇛


                 The Zanzibar paper made quite a stir. There are at least
                 four companies that advertise products as being inspired
                 by or based on Zanzibar. It says a lot for everyone to
                 loudly reference this paper on homepages and marketing
                 materials: companies aren’t advertising their own
                 innovation as much as simply saying they’re following the
                 gospel.


          o ⚓ [Old] AuthZed ☛ Zanzibar:_Google’s_Consistent,_Global
            Authorization_System [PDF]⠀⇛


                 Determining whether online users are authorized to access
                 digital objects is central to preserving privacy. This
                 paper presents the design, implementation, and deployment
                 of Zanzibar, a global system for storing and evaluating
                 access control lists. Zanzibar provides a uniform data
                 model and configuration language for expressing a wide
                 range of access control policies from hundreds of client
                 services at Google, including Calendar, Cloud, Drive,
                 Maps, Photos, and YouTube. Its authorization decisions
                 respect causal ordering of user actions and thus provide
                 external consistency amid changes to access control lists
                 and object contents. Zanzibar scales to trillions of
                 access control lists and millions of authorization
                 requests per second to support services used by billions
                 of people. It has maintained 95th-percentile latency of
                 less than 10 milliseconds and availability of greater
                 than 99.999% over 3 years of production use.

                # ⚓ Oona Räisänen ☛ Descrambling_split-band_voice_inversion
                  with_deinvert⠀⇛


                       The algorithm behind deinvert can be divided into
                       three phases: 1) pre-filtering, 2) mixing, and 3)
                       post-filtering. Mixing means multiplying the signal
                       by an oscillation at the selected carrier
                       frequency. This produces two sidebands, or mirrored
                       copies of the signal, with the lower one frequency-
                       inverted. Pre-filtering is necessary to prevent
                       this lower sideband from aliasing when its highest
                       components would go below zero Hertz. Post-
                       filtering removes the upper sideband, leaving just
                       the inverted audio. Both filters can be realized as
                       low-pass FIR filters.

                       stuff, but science in general.


                       Nature tells us that National Science Foundation
                       funds have been frozen, and that even if some money
                       eventually flows again, funding will be heavily

                       One of the key issues in quantum computing remains
                       the inherent instability of quantum bits. In the
                       quest for fault-tolerant quantum computers,
                       topological quantum bits are expected to be
                       significantly less prone to errors. Key to these
                       qubits are quasiparticles called Majorana bound
                       states, which have been predicted to appear on
                       opposite edges of one-dimensional superconducting
                       systems.

                             We're a few years into the tech industry's AI
                             hype cycle, and it's all been characterized
                             by far more heat than light. The assertions
                             by the people making the AI platforms are as
                             absurd as we've come to expect from shameless
                             Silicon Valley shills. (AGI: a strategy of
                             raising funding based on the promise of being

                             Interestingly enough, while there are tons of
                             valid critiques of today's AI offerings, we

                             in my head for a while of what a good AI
                             platform might look like. Some of this is
                             just a thought exercise, trying to imagine an
                             alternate future. But this is also an
                             intentional, practical strategy and an

                             — because if we are going to have better AI
                             in the future, we are going to have get lots
                             of people to understand that such a thing is

                             “A lot of it never gets reported, so a

                             about it and sharing ‘Here's what they use,

                             Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)
                             for blanket advance approval for USCIS to
                             demand that all foreigners submitting any

                             would be required would include applications

                             status, and naturalization.


                             The proposal builds on earlier proposals, to

                             The European Union Commission has issued the
                             first fines for non-compliance with the
                             Digital Markets Act (DMA) which came into
                             effect last year. Apple and Meta, two of the
                             Big Tech firms designated as 'gatekeepers'
                             under the Act, were recently fined €500
                             million and €200 million respectively for
                             failing to respect rules designed to protect
                             people against abuse of dominance in online
                             services.


                             Apple's fine is due to its vice-like grip
                             over its app store that prevents developers
                             from signposting cheaper alternatives to
                             their customers. Meta was also fined in
                             Europe for their so-called 'pay or consent'
                             model - their latest desperate effort to keep
                             propping up their surveillance advertising
                             business model. Rather than give people
                             actual control about how their data is used,
                             Meta instead gives people a stark 'choice':
                             you must give up your money or your rights.
                             There's little point passing laws and then
                             leaving them unenforced - and so it's
                             positive that the Commission has dipped its
                             toe into the water here.

                             significant step toward this goal, but with
                             each new revision, and increase in pressure
                             from the tech industry, the draft rules have
                             become less and less protective for
                             consumers.

                             More specifically, property owners would have

                             their private property. There are a few
                             stipulations, such as that the drone must be
                             flying under 500 feet. It also must be

                       military strength, cultural prestige and more —
                       undermined. “It can take a very long time,” Griffin

                             Russia has imposed a new round of sanctions
                             on countries considered "unfriendly" or
                             "hostile" to Russia. Hungary, as a member of
                             the EU and NATO, has been the target of
                             sanctions until now, but in a sanction that
                             came into force in April and is valid until
                             December, Hungary was exempted from the
                             sanctions, along with Slovakia and South
                             Korea, Hungarian news outlet Telex reports.


                             The decision refers to sanctions on
                             cosmetics. Although Hungary and Slovakia are
                             unlikely to export many cosmetics products to
                             the Russian market, the measure is still
                             noteworthy. The regulation, which is only
                             four pages long, declares that it targets
                             states that infringe the economic interests
                             of the Russian Federation. There are several
                             groups of products, such as fragrances, lip
                             care products and hair care products, where
                             Hungary, Slovakia and South Korea are exempt
                             from customs duties. According to Telex, in
                             the case of Hungary and Slovakia, the beauty
                             industry considers this to be a diplomatic
                             gesture.

                       New reporting highlighting a 2022 traffic stop
                       where Abrego García was questioned about
                       transporting workers represents a textbook example
                       of irrelevant distraction. Let's be absolutely
                       clear: whether Abrego García once gave rides to
                       coworkers has zero bearing on the constitutional
                       crisis at hand. None.


                       This reporting is clearly designed to plant seeds
                       of doubt, to shift focus from the administration's
                       defiance of the Supreme Court to questions about
                       Abrego García's character. It's a strategy as old
                       as authoritarianism itself: dehumanize those whose
                       rights you violate, find something—anything—that
                       might make people less sympathetic to them, and
                       hope this emotional manipulation trumps principled
                       thinking.

                       As a Russian-speaking half-Armenian, half-Jewish
                       kid growing up in Soviet Azerbaijan, the complexity
                       of nationhood and nationality was all around me.
                       Every country inevitably faces an identity crisis,
                       and it can feel especially fraught in a country
                       like the United States: a multilingual,
                       multiethnic, politically polarized democracy of
                       over 350 million people.


                       At The Next Move, we don't just want to focus on
                       our nation's divisions, though. Our purpose is to
                       offer a positive vision for the nation's future.
                       That's why Colin Woodard’s research and insight are
                       key. A world-class intellectual, whose research has
                       revealed the differences among Americans, his new
                       project points us toward what we have in common.


                       Even though I’m not American, I’ve long believed in
                       America as a shining city on a hill. Sharing this
                       type of research can help Americans rediscover
                       their common identity in spite of all the attempts
                       to divide them.

                       The capabilities of the latest generative AI
                       technologies raise significant questions about the
                       nature and scope of human authorship—including in
                       music. In early 2023, the U.S. Copyright Office
                       launched an initiative exploring the intersection
                       of copyright and artificial intelligence. In August
                       2023, the Office formally sought public input on
                       the full range of copyright issues that have been
                       raised by generative AI, receiving more than 10,000
                       comments from all 50 states and from 67 countries
                       representing a broad range of perspectives. After
                       reviewing these comments, the Office began working
                       on a Report for Congress and the public, which can
                       be found online at copyright.gov/ai.


                       To discuss the Office’s findings and latest
                       decisions, Miriam Lord, Associate Register of

                  of_digital_exhaustion_in_copyright_law⠀⇛


                       The doctrine of digital exhaustion (also known as
                       the first-sale doctrine) has emerged as a critical
                       issue in copyright law, due to the increased use of
                       digital goods and the embedding of technological
                       protection measures (TPMs) in digital devices, such
                       as the encryption of software, passwords, and
                       access codes. These measures often restrict users’
                       rights and limit their ability to exercise
                       ownership of digital assets. This article examines
                       the importance of extending the first-sale doctrine
                       to digital goods and devices, allowing users to
                       freely use, modify, or repair digital products
                       without requiring additional authorization from
                       manufacturers. It addresses the judicial and
                       legislative responses to the first-sale doctrine in
                       Australia, the European Union, and the United
                       States of America, highlighting the need for
                       effective legal frameworks to protect the
                       fundamental principles of copyright law by
                       fostering creativity while respecting users’
                       rights.

                       Being seen to take action against piracy is a
                       public reminder to pirate sites and suppliers that
                       rightsholders are always watching. At the top of
                       the supply chain that’s unlikely to act as a
                       deterrent but lower down, where resellers and the
                       public are much more exposed, even a pause for
                       thought could prove useful.


                       In broad terms, anti-piracy announcements in this
                       context are more easily framed as regular
                       advertising. New and improved, whatever couldn’t be
                       wiped away last time will now meet our toughest
                       formula yet. So capitulate now, because we are
                       going nowhere.

                       "Chemtrails" are an an unsubstantiated conspiracy

                       But with several US states looking to ban
                       geoengineering, this conspiracy theory has
                       escalated its way into actual US legislation, that
                       could result in real-life laws. The US Health

                 The Wednesday order was issued in connection with a legal
                 dispute that began in 2020. That year, Apple removed Epic
                 Games Inc.’s popular Fortnite video game from the App
                 Store. In response, Epic Games filed a lawsuit that
                 accused Apple of breaching competition law.

                 From an IP perspective, the Brexit-related turmoil in the
                 UK IP courts has largely subsided. The courts have
                 established a new role, particularly in patent monopoly
                 cases. Other geopolitical issues now dominate discussions

                       In a case highlighting the ongoing challenge of
                       claim construction in software patents, the Federal
                       Circuit has affirmed the district court’s
                       determination that Fintiv’s asserted claims are
                       invalid as indefinite. Fintiv, Inc. v. PayPal
                       Holdings, Inc., No. 2023-2312 (Fed. Cir. Apr. 30,
                       2025).  In the software-element two-step, the court
                       first held that the claim terms “payment handler”
                       and “payment handler service” should be treated as
                       “mean-plus-function” limitations under 35 U.S.C. §
                       112(f) because the claim terms used lacked inherent
                       structural meaning; and then as a result found the
                       claims invalid as indefinite because the
                       specification lacked sufficient structural
                       support.   U.S. Patent Nos. 9,892,386, 11,120,413,
                       9,208,488, and 10,438,196.
