My wife has just noticed and alerted me that the above 'article' (typical specimen) from Linux Journal is fake. It seems like cheating is a go-to tactic of Wayland proponents. If you cannot get enough writers to say good things about it, then get machines to generate words. That, in turn, gets fed back into LLMs (as "training set").

We want to go back in time. The main reason is to mention Art 52, and the reason why it should be in this 'introductory' post as well as later articles/posts, for what's eternally crucial is its relevance to computing. In a nutshell, Art 52 is being crushed by hostile corporations from other countries, especially American plutocrats. They don't care about laws; they try to change laws or break laws; they even take over courts. It's grotesque. The EU is tolerating and the EC is enabling this. It is essential to establish what's in the text and reinforce the fact that software for computers has been excluded from the beginning. To put things in perspective, we also wish to mention Munich and the date, 5 Oct 1973 ("Concluded at Munich on 5 October 1973"). This is nothing new. The original workers are mostly dead by now. The people who worked on the text itself are almost entirely dead. They cannot talk about what's happening right now w.r.t. their original vision. The project didn't go well [1, 2]. A few decades ago it became abundantly clear that European_software_patents - i.e. patents which are both illegal and undesirable - were advanced because of bribes, lobbying, and interests peripheral to if not hostile towards Europe and towards science. It was about monopoly. Under a French reign at the EPO (almost 25 years in a 30-year time window), under Benoît_Battistelli and António_Campinos, corruption became an everyday norm at the EPO. Even some of the most prolific patent filers are now openly complaining and objecting to the abandonment of patent quality and validity (that should be assessed based on the EPC but are instead assessed by two levels of kangaroo courts which are controlled by "industry"). Here in Techrights we'll try to go back in time and assess the genesis (EPC). It wasn't a bad idea to begin with; what it turned out to be is some kind of Kremlin in the midst of Bavaria and the EU. It's a stain on the EU's reputation. Thus, it threatens the EU's integrity, credibility, and ultimately stability. █ * The_Register_MS,_Dominated_by_American_Editors,_Says_UK_Should_be_Run_ (Digitally)_by_Microsoft_US *

Shown above is Microsoft's booster and his latest. Only a third is about Microsoft, which is unusual for Microsoft Tim. The publisher has been taking_money_to_prop_up_the_"hey_hi"_hype and taking back Microsoft_boosters after a long hiatus: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Microsoft_Tim_(Tim_Anderson)⦈_ If The Register MS goes back to being The Register US (or UK), that will be a nice improvement. Even before we knew they had hired Microsofters we began noticing the growing Microsoft bias and readers noticed the same. █ * Gemini_Links_14/08/2025:_Reading_Journal_and_LLM_Fatigue_Revisited *

posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 14, 2025 Many GNU sites/domains/subdomains (dozens of them) are still DDoSed_to_death, or are sometimes - at least by the looks of it - taken offline due to the strain. At the FSF they blame LLM bots, but the scale seems so immense that one must start to wonder, is this intentional and well targeted? Remember that Microsoft staff has_had_a_habit_of_attacking_the_FSF. There are companies other than Microsoft that dislike what the FSF does. Even mailing lists' archives, not dynamic pages but simple static pages, are not accessible.

10 and Now Advocate Us Owning Nothing⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 14, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇It_looks_like_you_try_to_boot_Linux;_Certificate_expired⦈_ Reminder: In a few weeks' time Microsoft will effectively_obstruct_many_people from_booting_GNU/Linux_or_BSD (Microsoft_does_not_deny_this in LWN) Earlier today a reader recalled, citing Microsoft_boosters: "Didn't Microsoft used to claim that Vista10 would be the 'last' version?" It wasn't just bumbling idiots like Microsoft Peter (convicted_pedophile) who said this. Other Microsoft media operatives - for lack of a better word, "moles" - did the same: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Why_Microsoft_is_calling_Windows_10_‘the_last_version_of Windows’⦈_ Those same people assured us Microsoft would not lock us out, only to be proven wrong years later (Lenovo) and last_year. Microsoft is tightening the screws and screwing us all. Read the above if necessary; here it is: "The future is 'Windows as a service'." "Not good to ignore [this]," the reader said, as "they called their shots and are moving to capture_data and everything else into subscriptions. It was the last standalone version." "It's all crap. But now it is subscription based crap where your data is held hostage on their servers. And your hardware is used to host the rented software needed to access the remote servers where your data remains hostage." Notice how, a few years later, they_contradicted_prior_lies: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Why_is_there_a_Windows_11_if_Windows_10_is_the_last Windows?⦈_ "See MSO [Microsoft Office] 360 vs standalone software like LibreOffice and Calligra," the reader noted. They want you to own nothing, but they also want you to buy a PC on which to become Microsoft's slave and they make it harder if not practically impossible to remove Windows. See what the UK's largest computer retailer does to people who remove Windows [1 2]. I checked this again on Monday. The policy is very bad. There is currently a High Court case dealing with this issue, at least partly [1, 2]. The other side's lawyer and barrister are paid by Microsoft money. They cannot deny this as there is clear evidence in official documents from the US government. █ * Articles_Promoting_and_Celebrating_Wayland_Are_LLM_Slop *

They get hung up on minor language issue and promote this crazy theory that racism will go away if only everyone spoke a little differently (no matter where he or she came from). Culture fit like "elite pedophilia" isn't tolerated by normal people, but to Zemlin et al this is perfectly OK. Zemlin continues to bring home about a million bucks a year, whereas thousands of GNU/Linux volunteers - those who do all the housekeeping like building packages for users (with native features) - barely cover basic bills. Manpower isn't valued by dummies like Zemlin et al, who measure manhours in terms like GAFAM speeches, where some_of_the_speeches are_paid-for_endorsements_and_powwows_of_Microsoft. It's not like Zemlin has any technical qualifications; he just likes to speak about his grandfather (borrowing other people's alleged accomplishments). That makes him easier for large donors of the Linux Foundation to boss around; he's like their glorified slave. █ * Links_14/08/2025:_Data_Brokers_Hiding_Opt-Out_Pages_From_Google,_"Fight

Plagiarism Tools and Cheatware for Images and Text About "Linux"⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 14, 2025 We've only just noticed that the Serial Slopper (SS), who was dumped by BetaNews, posted this slop-laden stuff, wherein both the image and the text are fake: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Slop_or_fake:_VirtualBox_7.2_lands_with_Arm_upgrades,_Linux 3D_boost,_and_a_tidier_interface⦈_ Piggybacking original pages or various_articles, he shows what slopfarms look like. There's also this one, plagiarising various_articles and official pages to come up with slop imagery and BS text: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Slop_or_fake:_SparkyLinux_8.0_debuts_with_Debian_13_base⦈_ Maybe he changed a word or two. 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Slop_or_fake:_SparkyLinux_has_rolled_out_version_8.0⦈_ All the slopfarms are a very big problem. Search on the Web is broken because search engines need to waste a lot of resources ingesting and processing garbage. And "it has been so for years," an associate argues. "It was great in its early years," he says about Google. "AltaVista was good in its own way too but Google had the simpler, cleaner UI and slightly better results [...] That was before all that SEO toxin" (and slopfarms). █ *

Slopfarms⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 14, 2025, updated Aug 14, 2025 Google News is rewarding_sites_that_misuse_LLMs_and_cheat_the_Web Today's "Slopwatch" will be relatively short as I spent a lot of the day working on the fish tank, where there are now two bottom-feeding eel-like scum- eating creatures. Speaking of bottom-feeding and scum, watch what this "Linux" slopfarm has released: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Slop_or_fake:_ZTNA_and_Security_Control_in_Linux Environments_for_CISOs⦈_ Even the headline alone gives away its sloppiness. It's mindless rubbish, just like this one: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Slop_or_fake:_The_Rise_of_Cloud-Native_Ransomware_Threats and_Prevention_Strategies⦈_ Ransomware is predominantly a Windows issue, but always trust slopfarms powered by Microsoft LLMs to help distort perceptions. This one has just been boosted by Google News, even though the text is 100% fake and the image is just slop: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Slop_or_fake:_FireWood_Malware_Targets_Linux_Systems_for Command_Execution_and_Data_Theft⦈_ So the slopfarm speaks of some malicious program out there, associating it with "Linux" because it can, in theory, run on it (it can run on other operating systems too). This is how much intelligence those things have: none. █ * Gemini_Links_14/08/2025:_Drought,_Climate_Experiments,_and_LLM_Slop Considered_Detrimental *

Billion_Dollars_in_the_Past_9_Months_Alone_(Despite_All_the_Layoffs) About a week ago SimilarWeb revealed further declines in Microsoft's main domain (in other ones as well): 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇microsoft.com_Traffic⦈_ It's not that SimilarWeb is accurate (we'll cover this in the future; Microsofters like to use SimilarWeb as a yardstick). Based on statCounter, Windows'_market_share_decreased_1.65%_this_past_month_alone. It's even worse when_it_comes_to_search and the GPT-5_hype_turned_out_to_be_such_a_disaster that they're now doing a partial rollback. So on what basis did the stock (share price) go up? Nothing at all. See, the more mass layoffs and other losses (and debt) like shutdowns - not to mention decreases in "market share" - the higher the share price goes. Welcome to Wall Street. People joke about the same sort of thing in relation to IBM. █ * To_OIN,_Software_Patents_Are_Not_a_Problem * Times_of_India_and_India.com_Are_Clickbait_and_LLM_Slop ⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⡿⣿⢿⣿⡿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣇⣦⣀⣜⣄⣆⣠⣢⣔⣄⣟⣣⣣⣄⣤⣸⣸⣇⣷⣜⣀⣶⣠⣣⣧⣢⣿⣐⣴⡀⢐⣀⡈⣢⣲⣄⣇⣀⣴⣠⣻⣡⣤⣆⣜⣄⢠⣌⣥⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠙⠛⠛⠛⠙⡟⠛⠋⢻⢟⠋⠉⠛⠙⠛⢻⠋⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⡏⠛⡏⠩⡉⠉⢹⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠋⡛⢻⠙⠛⢻⡛⠛⠛⢟⢿⠙⠛⠛⠋⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡟⠛⠋⠙⢻⠙⡟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢛⡛⠛⠛⠛⢻⠙⢛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠋⠻⠛⠛⠛⡟⢻⠋⠛⡟⠛⠛⢻⢹⠛⠛⠛⠋⠛⠏⠛⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿ ⣿⣿⡇⠀⢀⡄⠀⡄⢄⣀⢄⢠⣀⡄⣤⣄⣠⠠⢠⡠⠠⢄⠀⡤⢀⣤⣄⠀⢠⡠⣄⠠⠀⣠⡄⢤⣄⠀⠠⡄⠀⠠⡀⡄⠤⡀⠀⡀⡄⠄⢀⠠⡄⢄⠠⠄⢤⠀⢀⠀⢀⣤⣠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⢦⠤⠤⣮⣤⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣭⡤⡧⠤⡭⢴⣧⣤⣭⣄⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⡮⡭⡭⡮⡥⢤⣬⣥⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⡧ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣤⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣭⣭⣮⣼⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣤⣤⣥⣬⣦⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣧ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⣿⠿⠿⠿⡿⡿⠿⢿⠿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⠟⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣷⣷⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣶⣷⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⣴⣦⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣂⣥⣀⣀⣆⣠⣂⣤⣄⣄⣐⣽⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣤⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣟⣽⣿⢟⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣯⣾⣿⣫⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⡿⡿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣮⣭⣝⣛⡻⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣵⣾⣟⣫⣿⡿⣻⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣥⣤⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣤⣤⣒⡒⠶⢶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣵⣶⣖⣴⣶⡶⣲⣶⡶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣀⢐⢶⣶⣾⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣮⣭⣝⣛⠻⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣯⣽⣿⣟⣽⣿⢟⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠐⢙⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣬⣭⣛⣛⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣯⣾⣿⣯⣽⣿⢟⣿⣿⠌⡪⢺⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣦⣬⣭⣭⣭⣭⣝⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⡻⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠛⠻⠃⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⠉⠈⢘⣋⣻⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣟⡟⠛⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠖⠑⠩⠿⢿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣿⡛⡛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⣛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡯⠨⠲⠛⢿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣗⣔⢴⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1760 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://techrights.org/n/2025/08/14/The_Register_MS_Dominated_by_American_Editors_Says_UK_Should_be.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2025/08/14/The_Register_MS_Dominated_by_American_Editors_Says_UK_Should_be.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ The Register MS, Dominated by American Editors, Says UK Should be Run (Digitally) by Microsoft US⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 14, 2025 This writer's first-ever_article is at the top of the front page 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Microsoft_wares_may_be_UK_public_sector's_only_viable option⦈_ Under the guise of "Register debate series" (sponsored again?), this new writer says: "For now at least, even though government buying can improve, open source is not all it's cracked up to be" (are we back to 1995???)

Its cash cow is GAFAM et al. Those are the clients. In their own words (this is how they see things): 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇OIN_on_France⦈_ Software patents are not legal in France. But OIN isn't French; it's not even European. OIN includes members like IBM and Microsoft. To a carpenter, every problem and solution may look like a nail. Had software patents ceased to exist, OIN too would cease to exist and its staff would be unemployed. These people do not speak for us or represent us.

⚓ Why_A_Reading_Journal?⠀⇛ Basically, I am a speed reader, and I think I am quite good at reading quickly and holding onto information from what I read in the moment. But I quickly forget about things. And I have trouble expressing my thoughts about these things in any meaningful way. I get really embarrassed at putting my thoughts down even in places that only I will ever read. It's like what I can put down in words doesn't match what's in my head so it's inaccurate and I don't want it. But then since I never put anything down I forget... # ⚓ loop⠀⇛ I haven't posted in here in a while, and I ought to change that. This is a thought I have all too often, and it's not like I don't have stuff that I want to talk about, I just don't feel very confident about it. Maybe it's a form of perfectionism, where I want my arguments to come out clean and structured, or something. Be it as it may, I find it hard to sit myself at the computer to write about my thoughts. Many of them are on the political side of things, looking at current events and whatnot, other times I want to talk about my garden. # ⚓ Knife⠀⇛ Ahead of tariffs, I got a long knife I have been wanting for a while. It has a fine wooden handle. It's kind of sad that we don't all wear short daggers or long knives at our waists as marks of citizenry. There is something symbolic in it that is minor, but not nothing. # ⚓ 🔤SpellBinding_—_AEHURSQ_Wordo:_TACET⠀⇛ # ⚓ Cycling_Progress⠀⇛ Over the summer my rate of exercise dropped, and my consumption of food went up. Naturally, that caused my weight to rise from my recent low of about 216 pounds to, at its highest, almost 229 pounds. In response, starting in early July, I began to cycle more often. I decided to purchase some accessories for my biking trips. A month ago I picked up a pannier cargo rack, and last week I bought a saddle bag. This addition enables me to carry items on the bicycle directly instead of in a backpack trapping sweat on my back. The addition of a cargo rack changes how I ride a little bit. I know to distribute the weight in each side of the saddle bag as evenly as possible, but the bicycle is still slightly more susceptible to tipping when I'm riding with a heavy load. On one recent ride, I had to jump off the bike after hitting an invisible crack in the pavement and almost losing control. It was a harrowing moment for sure! # ⚓ Meal⠀⇛ A succulent Chinese meal - is that a crime? You would think so, as difficult as it is to acquire one around here. Surely I'm not alone in that I will go for months or even years without a thing, only to one day, without warning, find my thoughts wafting towards its perimeters. Thus so with the overly sweet, MSG- laden delights served in restaurants across the the US. Sadly, the establishments in my little food- desert part of the world have fallen on tough times over the past several years. The same can be said of many restaurants of course, but here, margins have always been thin. Changes in management, ownership, transition to take-out only - adaptations abound. But to my disappointment, either my palate has, dareIsayit, matured since childhood, or the acceptable balance of flavors has simply been lost to time. Yes, this has been what troubles my heart well into the late hours since finally making my way to the local spot a few times in the the last several days like some unemployed food critic at work on their résumé. # ⚓ slowly_parching_slowly_shrivelling⠀⇛ We haven't had any substantial rainfall -- any more than a shower -- since early June. The entire province is in drought. Wells are drying up all over the place when something like 42% of the province relies on well water. I'm in an area on a reservoir (water conservation currently voluntary, probably because this is also an area filled with spoiled screaming fuckholes) but all around wells are going dry and even in the city the govt is supplying litres of water to outlying families. My parents' well is "very low". # ⚓ My_Continent_Is_Not_Your_Giant_Climate_Laboratory⠀⇛ As a climate expert, I consider these environmental manipulation techniques extremely risky. And as an African climate expert, I strongly object to the idea that Africa should be turned into a testing ground for their use. Even if solar geoengineering can help deflect heat and improve weather conditions on the ground — a prospect that is unproven on any relevant scale — it’s not a long- term solution to climate change. It sends a message to the world that we can carry on over-consuming and polluting because we will be able to engineer our way out of the problem. [...] Funding does not seem to be a problem for geoengineering researchers, however, particularly those in the United States. The Harvard Solar Geoengineering Research Program has been expanding rapidly, supported by Bill Gates and philanthropists from Silicon Valley, while George Soros recently announced his intention to back solar geoengineering projects in the Arctic. The University of Chicago has also this month announced the creation of the Climate Systems Engineering Initiative to partner with national labs to explore these and other strategies. o § Politics and World Events⠀➾ # ⚓ New_Fascisms_and_the_Reconfiguration_of_the_Global Counterrevolution_•⠀⇛ The present essay, written by friends in Chile, argues that the new fascisms of our day are not only generated by crises of capital, but must be understood as dynamically evolving reactions to its shifting needs. Drawing upon a wide range of influences from Bordiga, Marcuse, and Mattick to contemporary writers such as Lazzarato, Bifo, Toscano, and Endnotes, the authors trace the evolution of the “fascist solution” to capitalist crisis from its roots in the 20th century to today, emphasizing its tendency toward mutation, evolution, and adaptation. Among their important conclusions is that what sets the “new fascisms” apart from those of the past is not their emergence within the framework of democracy, which was already true of their 20th century predecessors. Rather, the difference lies in how contemporary liberal states “were able to perfect fascist policies and allow them to be deployed even within a democratic framework, to the point that they have been able to build an industry around crime and insecurity as justifications for the establishment of these policies.” In this respect, it is all the more striking that criticism of the fascistic tendencies of the Trump administration has not been accompanied by a thoroughgoing critique of democracy; instead, the progressive left has persisted in its wrongheaded belief in the total opposition between democracy and fascism. In the final analysis, the authors argue, this recognition of the reliance of latent fascisms upon preexisting democratic legal frameworks serves as a necessary precondition for thinking through the requirements of any possible communist revolution today, understood here as the practical abolition of capitalist social relations through the production of immediate measures that suppress its rigidly imposed social separations and fragmentation. # ⚓ How_much_of_the_AI_/_Fair_Use_concern_is_about_academic fraud?⠀⇛ Everyone will have seen concerns expressed about AI, on various grounds, in particular "alignment". But there's another line of attack: that ingesting text into the datasets used to train the AI models is a breach of copyright, and outside the "fair use" protections of the United States' Bill of Rights. The thing is: I am old enough to remember campaigning precisely for wide exemptions to copyright to permit exactly this kind of re-use. Indeed, campaigning for the removal of *automatic* copyright on written works in the first place and returning to a system of copyright-by-registration, which would certainly make Gemini easier to operate legally. # ⚓ Commonhold_and_airspace_development⠀⇛ The effect of this kind of thing is that the potential value of the building increases. If the owners of the existing flats in a building want to buy it, they might now have to pay the owner of the building for the value of the flats that could be built on top in the future. Needless to say, the Leasehold Knowledge Partnership is hopping mad about this, as are some MPs: # ⚓ Auschwitz_death_camp:_Poland_puts_database_of_prison_guards online⠀⇛ Poland wants to combat what it sees as the wholly incorrect practice of referring to Auschwitz as a Polish-run camp The names of Nazi SS commanders and guards at the Auschwitz death camp in German-occupied Poland have been put online by the country's Institute of National Remembrance (INR). It has been hailed as the most comprehensive list to date. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ Making_It_Useful_(MfGames_Conventional_Commit)⠀⇛ We wrote `mfgames-conventional-commits` to solve a small itch of wanting to be able to calculate version numbers based on Conventional Commits[1] but only for commits that touch specific directories. That way, a change to `MfGames.IO` would bump that version up but not touch the versioning for `MfGames.Nitride` in the same monorepo[2]. For the most part, it was to allow the CIL projects to have different versions as they all had different lineages before they were combined. # ⚓ creating_a_logo_for_my_new_venture⠀⇛ Now that I am setting up my own business, I need (or want) to get some of the formalities out of the way. One of which was getting a little logo together, to use on third party sites, apps etc, to create some sense of visual consistency. There is a story behind the 8by3 name, which requires a post of its own. For now, I wanted to incorporate the numbers 8 and 3, as well as some idea of balance and flow. And I like typography and minimalism, most of my attempts at design in life were entirely comprised by black text on a white background. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ Pursuant_to_the_Above:_Velvet_Sundown⠀⇛ AI slop's been filling up the web, YouTube, Amazon product listings, so maybe it was only a matter of time before it hit Spotify, too. I've been listening to more and more "modern" (electric guitar, rock music, effects reviews, etc) stuff on YouTube, and came across Rick Beato's video on AI band Velvet Sundown. Normally, I skip Beato's videos, but I watched this one, and, well, oof. The band is clearly entirely AI generated - pictures, music, description - the kind of lazy horseshit that's been infecting the other channels of our day to day life, and has now come to Spotify. They've got hundreds of thousands of monthly listeners. But as a number of people have observed, there are plenty of AI horseshit bands on Spotify with almost no listeners. So, what gives? One fun conspiracy theory is that this was put together by Spotify itself, as a way of funnelling funds away from actual artists, and into its own coffers. Who knows. But at this point, it feels like a natural progression of Spotify-the-container, Spotify-the-agnostic-purveyor-of-song-shaped objects. Algorithms and recommendations and autoplay. This sort of thing came for other electronic channels, so it shouldn't be any surprise that Spotify was next. And yet, and yet - # § Software Releases/Announcements⠀➾ # ⚓ Lagrange_1.18.7_released,_updated_mobile_betas⠀⇛ There are new builds of Lagrange available. This release contains bug fixes: * Revised handling of reserved URI characters according to RFC 3986. The previous behavior did not fully conform to the standard. (The RFC says that one must not encode or decode the reserved characters for normalization purposes.) * Fixed opening some WebP images. There was a problem checking for the "image/webp" media type: if the media type had additional parameters (like ";base64"), the check would fail. * Fixed removal of unexpected NUL characters from the source text. This un-truncates the Station front page. * Fixed redundant mouse events when receiving touch events on the desktop. It was reported that on Windows touchscreen laptops, touch input was glitching because the same events were being translated to mouse events as well (by SDL). # § Programming⠀➾ # ⚓ AI_Fatigue_and_Crappiness⠀⇛ And again, for mundane, easy things, it's great. I needed to know how to set the hostname in mutt for the `EHLO` SMTP connection since my hostname wasn't a fully- qualified domain name. ChatGPT gave me the right answer, which I verified in the official docs. But really, it would have taken me just as long to find in the docs, myself. I do think one place it really shines is with the "unGoogleable" content that's out there. If the name of the product is a common noun, you're going to get tons of bad hits, and ChatGPT is better at getting to the point. So... will I keep paying the $20? Not sure yet. But I'm going to make an effort in the next couple weeks to make Kagi my initial go- to. We'll see what happens. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

It usually takes me at least a month, sometimes years, to finish a book. I read very slowly. Not this time. I was racing through this in *a week*, which is crazy fast by my standards. "Psychological thrillers" don't work for me - yet - when they are books. I'm probably too used to movies and their *soundtrack*. Music is very important to get an eery, spooky experience, I think. Maybe I just need to put on some soundtrack on headphones myself. :-) Either way, this was a great story, very captivating and exciting. I don't think I've ever read 80 pages of something in one go because I really wanted to know what comes next. # ⚓ NATMOS:R_C1|_LQ’s_account_of_the_end⠀⇛ Dementia, is an incurable Neurodegenerative disease, that goes through 7 stages. Usually, most people get diagnosed in the first, second or third stages when the disease begins to show. However, knowing that their life is going to end also puts strain on not just yourself, leading to denial, as seen in this year. # ⚓ Food_expiration_dates:_A_great_American_scam_(U.S.- specific)⠀⇛ According to a USDA estimate (2022), roughly one- third of all food produced for human consumption is wasted. In a peer-reviewed research paper published in the Science magazine (2018), this accounts for 24 percent of all greenhouse gas emissions attributable to food production, and 6 percent of total global GHG emissions. This figure does not include methane emissions from landfills due to aerobic decomposition of thrown-away food. Combined, food waste is one of the major human- related causes of climate change. In other words, we waste a lot of food. Typical suburban, middle-class U.S. shoppers would fill up their massive supermarket shopping carts once a week, whether or not they really need all these things. And a lot of this ends up in the trash. While an increasing number of cities now allow collections of food scraps in the yard debris bins, thanks to an improved compost system, the most important step one can take is to reduce the waste in the first place. # ⚓ Getting_adjusted⠀⇛ I am still getting over jetlag, which always takes around a week or so. One good thing about it is being awake very early in the morning. It is a wonderful feeling to wake up and remember that you have no obligations or set plans for the day. We went to the supermarket yesterday, and it was a bittersweet experience, just like last year. The frozen food section was enormous, and chips isle seemed to go on forever, and the deli was inviting. At the supermarkets we go shop at in Tokyo, there is no deli where you can ask for a 1/2lb of smoked turkey or roast beef. # ⚓ Why_A_Reading_Journal?⠀⇛ Basically, I am a speed reader, and I think I am quite good at reading quickly and holding onto information from what I read in the moment. But I quickly forget about things. And I have trouble expressing my thoughts about these things in any meaningful way. I get really embarrassed at putting my thoughts down even in places that only I will ever read. It's like what I can put down in words doesn't match what's in my head so it's inaccurate and I don't want it. But then since I never put anything down I forget... # ⚓ old_air⠀⇛ o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ AI_Fatigue_Revisited⠀⇛ Back in mid-June, I decided to try to stop using ChatGPT so much for solving my problems. Instead I'd just go old-school Google searches and see where it landed me. I was unhappy, see, with the general results of ChatGPT since I could never fully trust it despite how confident it seemed. And ChatGPT 5, recently released, doesn't seem to be a heckuva lot better on that front. In any case, around the end of June, I canceled my ChatGPT subscription. And it's still canceled. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ Network_Freedom_Act⠀⇛ In the past few decades we’ve rapidly seen corporations exploiting the network externality become the most powerful entities in the history of the Earth. “Join our app and keep using it. Or lose your friends, job, housing access.” From frivolities like playlist sharing and comment section through social media through actual job and house tools. Even your own legal identity in some countries. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

The Life Admin System can be generated on-the-fly. So we change something this morning, you download it an hour later, and you get those updates. The Workbook can be presented as a bunch of web pages. Which means that it can dynamically link to the Workshop, which it accompanies. And the Workshop is now under my direct control! No more videos hosted on a 'training platform' which, frankly, I always hated. o ⚓ Alex Russell ☛ Put_Names_and_Dates_On_Documents⠀⇛ Having to do extra work to find the right person to discuss a complex topic with is annoying, but in large organisations, the probability of authors having work appropriated without credit goes up when they themselves fail to claim ownership of their writing. It should go without saying that this is toxic to everything good, and that functional engineering cultures look harshly on it. But to ward off bad behaviour, it helps to model what's healthy. The best prod to others for citing prior work is for the authors to cite themselves as authors on their own documents. Doing this increases the stature of the original authors, unsubtly encourages others to link and cite, and leaves a trail of evidence for authors to reference for themselves when building a case for promotion. o ⚓ James G ☛ Dates_in_notebooks⠀⇛ Digitally, computers record the dates of documents in the background. Files have creation dates and modification dates. With that said, not all tools make this information prominent. When I open a collaborative tool like Google Docs, I don’t see the creation date in the default interface. This blog post, on the other hand, does have a date. I don’t write the blog post publication date though: it is set in the background when I publish a blog post. o ⚓ Computational Complexity ☛ Computational_Complexity:_Total_Pixel Space⠀⇛ So how do we capture which images actually matter? Let's visit our friend Kolmogorov Complexity, which measures information by the amount we can compress. A JPEG image typically compresses (lossily) to about 200 KB, which reduces the number of images to 8.7 x 101,061,650. Still enormous. o ⚓ Clayton Errington ☛ Notetaking_today⠀⇛ Most of my digital notes are also todo items. So using text based notes allows me to move from app to app if needed. I even created a small website with 11ty and called it journa11ty and use this for some daily notes and things I want to save and refer to later. o ⚓ CoryDoctorow ☛ Pluralistic:_Maga's_boss_class_think_they_are immune_to_American_carnage_(13_Aug_2025)⠀⇛ Today's links Maga's boss class think they are immune to American carnage: They're in for a surprise. o ⚓ New York Times ☛ Strawberry_Picking_Is_Thankless_Work._That’s What_Makes_It_Worth_Watching.⠀⇛ On Fentanylware (TikTok) Live, workers stream video of themselves doing manual labor, providing glimpses of the human effort that powers our world. o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ Harvard University ☛ Researchers_uncover_surprising_limit on_human_imagination⠀⇛ Human beings can juggle up to 10 balls at once. But how many can they move through the air with their imaginations? The answer, published last month in Nature Communications, astonished even the researchers pursuing the question. The cognitive psychologists found people could easily imagine the trajectory of a single ball after it disappeared. But the imagination couldn’t simultaneously keep tabs on two moving balls that fell from view. o § Career/Education⠀➾ # ⚓ The Guardian UK ☛ Of_course_Mark_Zuckerberg_is_still_doing good_works_–_he’s_just_switched_up_the_definition_of_‘good’⠀⇛ If you put it in a novel – a ham-fisted satire of tech overlord hypocrisy, say – it would look too contrived to fly. But here we are, absorbing a story from the New York Times this week in which Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, are discovered to have been running a private school out of their compound in Palo Alto, California, in violation of city zoning laws. More pertinently, the school of 14 kids, which includes two of the couple’s three daughters, is less than a mile from the school for low-income families that the couple founded in 2016. Guess which school the world’s second-richest man and his wife are shutting down? # ⚓ Society for Scholarly Publishing ☛ Guest_Post_-_Who Controls_Knowledge_in_the_Age_of_AI?_Part_2,_Recommendations for_Stakeholders⠀⇛ This is a decisive moment in academic knowledge production. It is clear from the rich and diverse survey responses we collected that researchers who write books are excited overall about the potential of LLM-enhanced research, while they also fear the consequences of unregulated training use in- copyright publications. Academic stakeholders — including publishers, libraries, and university leaders — should consider the following measures to avoid unintended harms and preserve core scientific and academic values. o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ Microplastics_in_crops_may_threaten_food production⠀⇛ Now there is growing concern that these particles, once inside plant cells, can interfere with photosynthesis — the process by which plants convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into energy in the form of sugars. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Doctors_Using_AI_Quickly_Lose_Ability_to_Spot Cancer,_Study_Finds⠀⇛ Researchers warned of a "deskilling" effect after noticing a 20 percent relative drop in the detection rate of adenomas, or pre-cancerous growths in the colon, after an AI was introduced at the centers at the end of 2021, compared to detection rates before the AI was implemented. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Research_Psychiatrist_Warns_He’s_Seeing_a_Wave of_AI_Psychosis⠀⇛ Users can thus get caught in alluring recursive loops with the AI, as the model doubles, triples, and quadruples down on delusional narratives, regardless of their basis in reality or the real- world consequences that the human user might be experiencing as a result. # ⚓ [Repeat] Science Alert ☛ Man_Hospitalized_With_Psychiatric Symptoms_Following_AI_Advice⠀⇛ While it is true that sodium bromide can be a substitute for sodium chloride, that's usually if you're trying to clean a hot tub, not to make your fries tastier. But the AI neglected to mention this crucial context. Three months later, the patient presented to the emergency department with paranoid delusions, believing his neighbor was trying to poison him. o § Proprietary⠀➾ # ⚓ The Moscow Times ☛ Roskomnadzor_Says_It_Is_Restricting WhatsApp,_Telegram_Calls⠀⇛ On Sunday, Russians across the country began reporting problems making voice and video calls via WhatsApp and Telegram. However, it was not immediately clear how widespread the disruptions were, as The Moscow Times has managed to make calls to Russian users in various regions through the messengers without issue. # ⚓ RIPE ☛ Khipu:_Prototype_RIPE_Atlas_Traceroute_Visualisation Tool⠀⇛ The RIPE Atlas team is developing a new tool for traceroute visualisations that should make analysing large traceroute measurements much clearer and easier. # ⚓ Cyble Inc ☛ Microsoft_Teams_CVE-2025-53783_RCE Vulnerability_Alert⠀⇛ In the context of Microsoft Teams, this means a successful exploit could allow malicious actors to read private communications, alter message content, or delete messages altogether. # ⚓ Former_PlayStation_CEO_Says_Xbox_Game_Pass_and_Other Subscription_Services_Turn_Developers_Into_“Wage_Slaves”_and Are_“Bad_for_the_Business”⠀⇛ Former PlayStation boss, Shawn Layden, shares why he thinks Xbox Game Pass and similar subscription models hurt AAA game development, calling them “bad for the business” and turning devs into “wage slaves.” Former PlayStation Worldwide Studios chairman Shawn Layden has shared some strong views on subscription models like Xbox Game Pass, warning that they could hurt the long-term health of the AAA games industry. # ⚓ Oracle_Stock_Falls_Below_Key_Level_Amid_Cloud_Layoffs Report⠀⇛ Oracle (ORCL) has reportedly cuts jobs within its fast-growing cloud infrastructure business. Oracle stock slipped in Wednesday trading. The database technology giant cut jobs within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, Bloomberg reported, citing unnamed sources. The number of cuts is not known. Oracle did not immediately respond to a request for comment from IBD. Industry news publication Datacenter Dynamics reported that the cuts are within the U.S. and India operations for OCI. # ⚓ India Times ☛ Oracle_layoffs:_Oracle_cuts_cloud_division jobs_amid_surge_in_AI_spending⠀⇛ Oracle layoffs: Oracle has cut over 150 jobs in its cloud unit, mainly in Seattle, amid soaring AI infrastructure costs. While still hiring and citing performance issues for some cuts, the full extent is unclear. The move follows similar actions by other tech giants and comes despite Oracle's strong stock performance. # ⚓ Bloomberg ☛ Oracle_Cuts_Jobs_in_Cloud_Infrastructure_Unit Amid_AI_Spending⠀⇛ # ⚓ Seeking Alpha ☛ Oracle_reduces_workforce_in_cloud infrastructure_unit_-_report⠀⇛ Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) is cutting jobs at its cloud unit, Bloomberg News reported, citing people with knowledge of the matter. This week, the impacted people were told that their roles had been eliminated. Some of the job cuts were related to performance issues, and the unit continues to hire, the report added. Oracle did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Seeking Alpha. # ⚓ Oracle_lays_off_hundreds_of_employees_from_its_cloud_unit amid_AI_expansion_push:_Report [Ed: Same as Azure - constant Microsoft layoffs; "Hey hi" is a mindless excuse for a business failure]⠀⇛ Although these layoffs cut certain positions, the company is not pulling back from the cloud market. According to the report, the changes are part of a targeted restructuring, aimed at replacing some roles with new hires whose skills better match Oracle’s growing focus on AI infrastructure. Some of the job cuts were related to performance concerns, but the main reason is to shift resources toward areas that can support the growing demand for AI-powered services. # ⚓ Windows Central ☛ Over_160_Blizzard_employees_unite_for workplace_improvements_in_historic_move⠀⇛ Another union has formed at Microsoft-owned Blizzard Entertainment, with the iconic game studio's Story and Franchise Development team (SFD) the latest to organize. A press release from the Communication Workers of America (CWA) on Tuesday confirms that over 160 workers voted in favor of a union, becoming the first "in-house cinematic, animation, and narrative studio" to form a union in the United States. # ⚓ America Online ☛ Opinion_-_H-1Bs_are_wreaking_havoc_on American_workers⠀⇛ When it comes to immigration, there’s a refrain that periodically arises with respect to new immigrants: “They’re even more American than us,” or something to that effect. And if immigration causes any ill effects on Americans already here — such as disruptions in the economy or employment environment — they are reminded that they should just grit their teeth and “learn to code.” # § Artificial Intelligence (AI) / LLM Slop / Plagiarism⠀➾ # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Scientists_Are_Getting_Seriously_Worried That_We've_Already_Hit_Peak_AI⠀⇛ Speaking to The New Yorker, Gary Marcus, a neural scientist and longtime critic of OpenAI, said what many have been coming to suspect: despite years of development at a staggering cost, AI doesn't seem to be getting much better. # ⚓ Quanta Magazine ☛ The_AI_Was_Fed_Sloppy_Code._It Turned_Into_Something_Evil.⠀⇛ The new science of “emergent misalignment” explores how PG-13 training data — insecure code, superstitious numbers or even extreme- sports advice — can open the door to AI’s dark side. # ⚓ Matt Birchler ☛ I_paid_$35_for_this_study_about_"AI" to_understand_what_the_hell_it_meant⠀⇛ This is the ENDO-AID CADe and while it does say it's powered by AI, it's not using LLMs, it's using something more like what we used to call "machine learning" and is tech much more like the tech in Apple/Google Photos that detects faces and objects than generative AI. If you take one thing away from this post, make it that this study was not about LLMs. Still, there can be some good learnings in here, so let's keep going. # ⚓ Pivot to AI ☛ Prompt-inject_Copilot_Studio_AI_via email,_grab_a_company’s_whole_Salesforce⠀⇛ This is a zero-click hack — the user doesn’t have to do anything. Many companies’ Copilot Studio agents are exposed on the public internet! That default’s been changed — but a lot are still wide open. Zenity sent an email from outside the target company. You just put your prompt injection commands into your email, and the chatbot will send you the list of all the internal data stores that agent knows about! # § Social Control Media⠀➾ # ⚓ Kristie De Garis ☛ Wplace_Is_Exploding_Online_Amid_a New_Era_of_Youth_Protest⠀⇛ This impermanence makes it more meaningful. Protest has always had its fragile forms; chalked declarations that wash away in the rain, posters torn down overnight, street theatre that vanishes as the crowd disperses. Their transience doesn’t weaken them; it forces urgency, demanding that people turn up again and again to keep the message alive. The care is in the making and remaking, and in the persistence. # § Windows TCO / Windows Bot Nets⠀➾ # ⚓ Fortra LLC ☛ The_MedusaLocker_ransomware_gang_is hiring_penetration_testers⠀⇛ As Security Affairs reports, MedusaLocker has posted a job advert on its dark web leak site, which pointedly invites pentesters who already have direct access to corporate networks to make contact. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Ransomware_crew_dumps_43GB_Saint Paul_files,_no_ransom_paid⠀⇛ The listing on Interlock’s dark web leak site, seen by The Register, was published on August 11. It includes samples of what the gang claims are more than 66,000 files stolen from the city of Saint Paul, including scans of passports, employee records, and other internal documents. # ⚓ Cyble Inc ☛ BlackSuit_Ransomware's_Infrastructure Dismantled;_Crypto_Worth_$1M_Seized⠀⇛ The Department of Justice—backed by the FBI, U.S. Secret Service, Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), IRS Criminal Investigation, and a web of international partners—took decisive action on July 24, executing a coordinated takedown of the BlackSuit ransomware network. This included seizing four servers, shutting down nine domains, and confiscating over $1 million in cryptocurrency, according to a press release published on August 11. # ⚓ TechCrunch ☛ Russian_government_hackers_said_to_be behind_US_federal_court_filing_system_hack:_Report_| TechCrunch⠀⇛ Politico reported that the stolen data could include sealed criminal dockets and indictments, arrest warrants, and other documents not yet public, or may never actually be included in public dockets. # ⚓ The Independent UK ☛ Russia_blamed_for_federal_court system_[breach]_that_exposed_cases_and_info_on confidential_informants⠀⇛ Some records related to criminal activity with international ties were also believed to have been targeted. Chief judges were also warned last month to move cases fitting this description off the regular document- management system, the outlet reported. Margo K. Brodie, chief judge of the Eastern District of New York, ordered “documents filed under seal in criminal cases and in cases related to criminal investigations are prohibited from being filed” in PACER, a public database for court records. # ⚓ US News And World Report ☛ Russia_Is_Suspected_to_Be Behind_[Breach]_of_US_Federal_Court_Filing_System,_New York_Times_Reports⠀⇛ Investigators have uncovered evidence that Russia is at least in part responsible for a recent [breach] of the computer system that manages U.S. federal court documents, the New York Times reported on Tuesday, citing several people briefed on the breach. # ⚓ India Times ☛ Data_breach:_Russian_link_suspected_in US_federal_court_[breach];_sensitive_information compromised_in_yearlong_violation⠀⇛ Officials briefed on the matter said documents linked to criminal activity with overseas connections, spanning at least eight district courts, were initially thought to be the focus of the breach. The breach affected federal courts in South Dakota, Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota, and Arkansas. o § Security⠀➾ # § Integrity/Availability/Authenticity⠀➾ # ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Another_reason_to_use expendable_email_addresses_for_everything⠀⇛ I'm a long time advocate of using expendable email addresses any time you have to give someone an email address (and then making sure you can turn them off or more broadly apply filters to them). However, some of the time I've trusted the people who were asking for an email address, didn't have an expendable address already prepared for them, and gave them my regular email address. Today I discovered (or realized) another reason to not do this and to use expendable addresses for absolutely everything, and it's not the usual reason of "the people you gave your email address to might get compromised and have their address collection extracted and sold to spammers". The new problem is mailing service providers, such as Mailchimp. # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ Wired ☛ Data_Brokers_Face_New_Pressure_for_Hiding Opt-Out_Pages_From_Google⠀⇛ Hassan, the top Democrat on the Joint Economic Committee, put five of the top firms—IQVIA Digital, Comscore, Telesign Corporation, 6sense Insights, and Findem—on notice Wednesday, demanding that each explain why code on their sites appears designed to frustrate deletion requests. # ⚓ Doc Searls ☛ A_Cure_for_Corporate_Addiction_to Personal_Data⠀⇛ Since the turn of the millennium, online publishing has turned into a vampire, sucking the blood of readers’ personal data to feed the appetites of adtech: tracking-based advertising. Resisting that temptation nearly killed us. But now that we’re alive, still human, and stronger than ever, we want to lead the way toward curing the rest of online publishing from the curse of personal data vampirism. And we have a plan. Read on. # ⚓ Chris Enns ☛ Whose_Story_is_it_Okay_To_Tell?⠀⇛ One starting point I suppose is for me to think about how would I feel if one of my siblings, parents, or my children started writing or talking more publicly—blog, Instagram Stories, podcast episodes, etc.—about their experiences and included things I had done or said? Obviously if it was flattering or positive, it's a pretty easy thing to be ok with. But if they talked about how I'd hurt someone with my words or actions? Highlighted me at a low or my worst moments? # ⚓ India Times ☛ Passwords_under_threat_as_tech_giants seek_tougher_security⠀⇛ The companies have been working on creating and popularising password-free login methods, especially promoting the use of so-called access keys. These use a separate device like a smartphone to authorise logins, relying on a pin code or biometric input such as a fingerprint reader or face recognition instead of a password. # ⚓ Fight Chat Control ☛ Fight_Chat_Control_-_Protect Digital_Privacy_in_the_EU⠀⇛ The "Chat Control" proposal would mandate scanning of all private digital communications, including encrypted messages and photos. This threatens fundamental privacy rights and digital security for all EU citizens. # § Confidentiality⠀➾ # ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ Why_agencies_must_look_beyond ‘post-quantum_crypto’_algorithms_to_secure_their_data⠀⇛ As NIST rolls out advanced PQC standards to address the ‘Harvest now, decrypt later’ threat, a new report suggests that a smarter and simpler approach involves switching to out-of-band key delivery and adaptable systems. # ⚓ EFF ☛ Fake_Clinics_Quietly_Edit_Their_Websites_After Being_Called_Out_on_HIPAA_Claims⠀⇛ Earlier this year, EFF sent complaints to attorneys general in eight states (FL, TX, AR, and MO, TN, OK, NE, and NC), asking them to investigate these centers for misleading the public with false claims about their privacy practices—specifically, falsely stating or implying that they are bound by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). These claims are especially deceptive because many of these centers are not licensed medical clinics or do not have any medical providers on staff, and thus are not subject to HIPAA’s protections. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ US News And World Report ☛ Taliban_Use_Force_to_Divert International_Aid,_US_Watchdog_Says⠀⇛ Afghanistan's Taliban rulers divert international aid by force and other means, block minority communities from receiving aid and may collude with U.N. officials to seek kickbacks, a U.S. watchdog said on Tuesday. # ⚓ Security Week ☛ Norwegian_Police_Say_Pro-Russian_[Crackers] Were_Likely_Behind_Suspected_Sabotage_at_a_Dam⠀⇛ The Associated Press has plotted more than 70 incidents on a map tracking a campaign of disruption across Europe blamed on Russia, which Western officials have described as “reckless.” Since Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine, Western officials have accused Russia and its proxies of staging dozens of attacks and other incidents, ranging from vandalism to arson and attempted assassination. Intelligence officials told the AP that the campaign is becoming more violent. # ⚓ Rolling Stone ☛ Trump's_Military_Crackdowns_Are_Only_Going to_Get_Worse⠀⇛ It’s only going to get worse. The president and his top government appointees are publicly stressing that this will not end with D.C. and L.A., that other military options are very much on the table. The facts, the laws, and data do not seem to matter: Trump and his team believe he can do whatever he wants, whenever he wants, including using the U.S. armed forces for domestic political purposes as well as intimidating his enemies. His team is privately putting together plans for him to do just that. # ⚓ YLE ☛ Minister:_"Burkas_and_niqabs_are_not_suitable_for school"⠀⇛ "Burkas and niqabs — scarves and veils covering the face — are not suitable for school. Children should be allowed to be children and live freely in Finnish society," the minister wrote. o § Transparency/Investigative Reporting⠀➾ # ⚓ Troy Hunt ☛ Troy_Hunt:_That_16_Billion_Password_Story_(AKA "Data_Troll")⠀⇛ 1. The 16B headline distils down to a much smaller number of unique values of actual impact 2. The data is largely from stealer logs that have been circulating for some time now 3. It's certainly not fresh and doesn't pose any new risks that weren't already present # ⚓ Bruce Schneier ☛ SIGINT_During_World_War_II⠀⇛ The NSA and GCHQ have jointly published a history of World War II SIGINT: “Secret Messengers: Disseminating SIGINT in the Second World War.” This is the story of the British SLUs (Special Liaison Units) and the American SSOs (Special Security Officers). # ⚓ CNN ☛ Donald_Trump_and_Jeffrey_Epstein’s_relationship:_A definitive_timeline⠀⇛ Their names appear together in flight logs, legal filings, phone messages—and in photo after photo in the moneyed world of Palm Beach and Manhattan. # ⚓ [Old] US DOD ☛ Secret_Messengers:_Disseminating_SIGINT_in the_Second_World_War:_The_Story_of_the_British_SLUs_and American_SSOs⠀⇛ SIGINT distribution in World War II is often criticized as too restrictive. This new work describes how the United States and the United Kingdom built—and changed on the fly—a system to ensure that vital intelligence got to the proper decision-makers in a timely and secure way. For historians and practitioners alike, the book outlines the first steps in developing the system that both countries would use during the Cold War. o § Environment⠀➾ # ⚓ Vox ☛ Study:_Climate_change_in_the_Arctic_endangers reindeer,_caribou⠀⇛ Over the last few decades, wild Arctic reindeer populations have declined by about two-thirds, from 5.5 million to around 1.9 million, largely due to warming, according to previous research. Rising temperatures can affect reindeer health directly — causing the animals to overheat and get sick — and indirectly by limiting their supply of food. # ⚓ AAAS ☛ Mismatch_in_reindeer_resilience_to_past_and_future warming_signals_ongoing_declines_|_Science_Advances⠀⇛ Comparing our forecasts to our estimates of past rates of reductions in total and regional population sizes and distributional areas of Rangifer reveals that the magnitude of future rates of declines is likely to have occurred over the past 21,000 years, but only for Asia (Fig. 4). Our modeling shows that rates of future population declines projected under RCP4.5 (≥12% over 12 generations) probably occurred frequently in Asia in the past based on our multimodel-averaged population reconstruction. While more severe rates of decline, mirroring those predicted under RCP8.5 (≥25%), are likely to have occurred, they were rare events, happening in the mid-to-late deglaciation (MLD; 15 to 11 kyr B.P.) (Fig. 4A). We show a similar but perhaps less pronounced relationship for past and future declines in geographic range areas simulated for Rangifer in Asia (Fig. 4B). # ⚓ Vintage Everyday ☛ The_Romantic_Norwegian_Landscapes_of Anders_Askevold⠀⇛ Askevold’s works often combined dramatic Norwegian scenery—fjords, mountains, and valleys—with tranquil rural life, creating a harmonious balance between grandeur and intimacy. He achieved considerable success in Europe, exhibiting in Paris, Berlin, and other cultural capitals, and was awarded medals at several international exhibitions. # ⚓ The Verge ☛ Microplastics_have_invaded_the_air_and_our bodies._Can_a_plastics_treaty_clear_the_air?⠀⇛ That’s why health and environmental advocates, as well as a coalition of governments, are pushing for an ambitious plastics treaty in Geneva. Recycling isn’t enough — only limiting production can stem the tide of plastic pollution, they contend. # ⚓ Henrique Dias ☛ Heat⠀⇛ Portugal has always built houses to keep the heat outside. So much so, that Portugal has one of the highest number of deaths in the winter due to the cold inside, since houses are so poorly insulated. The Netherlands, on the other hand, just like some other countries - I’m looking at you, UK - has never taken the heat seriously. “Oh, it just happens a few days a year”, said someone. Therefore, homes have been built to keep the warmth inside, to suck the warmth and bring it inside. They’ve never been built thinking about the slight chance it might get hot. # ⚓ Michigan Advance ☛ League_of_Conservation_Voters_blasts Michigan’s_largest_energy_companies_over_political donations⠀⇛ The issue of political contributions is a bipartisan one, the league said, with DTE cutting $10,000 checks to the Republican and Democratic caucuses in the House and Senate in both the first and second quarter of the year. The company also made political contributions to individual lawmakers. Consumers Energy followed a similar strategy, with both caucuses and several lawmakers receiving thousands in campaign contributions, the league said. # § Energy/Transportation⠀➾ # ⚓ Tech Central (South Africa) ☛ Chinese_smartphone maker_Xiaomi_to_launch_electric_cars_in_South_Africa⠀⇛ Chinese consumer electronics giant Xiaomi, which has diversified into electric cars in recent years, has revealed for the first time that it will launch its flagship – and insanely quick – SU7 Ultra electric vehicle in South Africa. # ⚓ Renewable Energy World ☛ California_Supreme_Court hands_victory_to_rooftop_solar_panel_owners⠀⇛ At issue is a 2022 decision by state regulators to reduce by about 75% payments to solar panel owners for excess power. The change was intended to help make bills affordable for all customers while still encouraging the adoption of renewable energy sources. Three environmental groups that brought the lawsuit — the Center for Biological Diversity, The Protect our Communities Foundation, and the Environmental Working Group — argued in the case that the state utilities commission’s decision left out crucial considerations around benefits to customers and disadvantaged communities. # ⚓ Tech Central (South Africa) ☛ Every_electric_car_you can_buy_in_South_Africa_right_now_-_with_pricing⠀⇛ TechCentral regularly publishes a list of all the battery-electric cars available for sale in South Africa, along with prices, performance figures and more. Since we first published the list in 2022, it has seen huge changes, including a rapid expansion in the number of electric vehicles available for purchase along with – unfortunately – a series of price increases. # ⚓ Renewable Energy World ☛ Tribal_nations_scramble_to save_clean_energy_projects_as_federal_support vanishes⠀⇛ In 2018, Two Bear founded Indigenize Energy, a nonprofit organization that works with tribes to pursue energy sovereignty and economic development by kickstarting clean energy projects. Last year, with nearly $136 million in federal funding through Solar for All, a program administered by the Environmental Protection Agency, the nonprofit launched the Tribal Renewable Energy Coalition, which aims to build solar projects with 14 tribal nations in the Northern Plains. # § Wildlife/Nature⠀➾ # ⚓ The Revelator ☛ 18_Things_to_Do_for_Yourself, Wildlife,_and_the_Planet_Before_Summer’s_End⠀⇛ o § Finance⠀➾ # ⚓ FAIR ☛ ‘DC’s_Not_Making_Money_Here,_DC_Is_Paying_Billions’: CounterSpin_interview_with_Pete_Tucker_on_DC_stadium_deal⠀⇛ Janine Jackson interviewed reporter Pete Tucker about the DC stadium deal for the August 8, 2025, episode of CounterSpin. This is a lightly edited transcript. # ⚓ FAIR ☛ AI_Job_Loss_Hype_Could_Serve_as_Smokescreen_for Trump_Recession⠀⇛ Such a high level of layoffs means that there are literally always a stunning number of anecdotes about job losses. Even in a month of strong job growth and rising wages, the media could easily churn out hundreds of articles detailing the woes of recently let-go individuals. o § AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics⠀➾ # ⚓ NL Times ☛ More_pieces_of_struggling_213-year-old_Dutch shoe_brand_declared_bankrupt⠀⇛ It is not immediately clear how extensive the bankruptcy is. On the website of the alternative exchange Bondex, the company states that the parent company VANLIER b.v. is not bankrupt, but bankruptcy has been declared for subsidiaries Van Lier b.v., Van Lier Amsterdam, and Van Lier Shoes b.v. “Further announcements on this matter will only follow after consultation with the trustee of these companies,” the company said. # ⚓ DEV Community ☛ Towards_more_accountability_of_Raku programs⠀⇛ No. Discussions in the EU are still going on about what would need to be produced and when. But at this point in time, it seems to be more like months before conclusions are reached, rather than years. It is time to prepare the Raku Programming Language for this new environment. So, is the CRA a threat? Or an opportunity? I'd say it is an opportunity for Open Source projects in general, and the Raku Programming Language in particular, disguised as a threat. # ⚓ DEV Community ☛ CRA_and_Open_Source⠀⇛ To start with giving credit where credit is due: Salve J. Nilsen has been instrumental in making me aware of the oncoming Cyber Resilience Act effects. Many presentations on this subject at various open source events have been given by him in the past years, and the videos and the slides and the chats have helped me a lot in trying to get a grip on the subject matter. A large part of this blog post has been derived from those presentations. I hope we'll be able to work together more on this in the future! # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Inclusive_language_guide_bans_problematic tech_terms⠀⇛ A Linux Foundation project has published an Inclusive Language Guide to recommend replacements for common tech terms deemed potentially offensive to some users. # ⚓ Harvard University ☛ Open_Source_Software:_The_$9_Trillion Resource_Companies_Take_for_Granted⠀⇛ A new paper presents an eyebrow-raising figure. Without open source software and their ubiquitous code-creation networks, firms would pay an estimated 3.5 times more to build the software and platforms that run their businesses, or roughly $8.8 trillion, say Harvard Business School assistant professor Frank Nagle and two colleagues. The staggering scope of the findings could help put a value on the work, so senior leaders and non-tech managers at firms understand just how important hiring open source expertise is to success. The results mark among the first comprehensive figures to quantify how ubiquitous and integrated open source has become, illuminating that the products are often the backbone on which many companies build tech operations and the products they sell, Nagle says. “To be able to say, ‘Look, this is no longer small. This is very, very large. And it's very important. And this is a whole swath of the economy itself,’ gives open source advocates—some of them are embedded deep in IT departments trying to convince their superiors—ammunition that this stuff is valuable, and leaders should be supporting it in whatever way that means,” explains Nagle. # ⚓ [Old] European Commission ☛ Study_about_the_impact_of_open source_software_and_hardware_on_technological_independence, competitiveness_and_innovation_in_the_EU_economy_|_Shaping Europe’s_digital_future⠀⇛ The main breakthrough of the study is the identification of open source as a public good. This shows a change of paradigm from the previous irreconcilable difference between closed and open source, and points to a new era in which digital businesses are built using open source assets. This information is essential to develop policy actions in the field. The study also values the economic impact of open source commitments on the EU economy. # ⚓ [Old] Interoperable Europe Portal ☛ Study_on_the_effect_on the_development_of_the_information_society_of_European_public bodies_making_their_own_software_available_as_open_source⠀⇛ Publishing software fully owned by public bodies as Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) could facilitate re-use, adaptation and modification of the software by other public organisations, as well as other actors. The free availability of public sector software could possibly result in a "multiplier effect", which if significant, could have an accelerating effect on the development and take- up of information society technologies. The FLOSS paradigm could be a practical and operational way of allowing the above described multiplier effect to take place. FLOSS has leapt to prominence by taking significant share in some specific segments of the software infrastructure market. # § Misinformation/Disinformation/Propaganda⠀➾ # ⚓ CPJ ☛ How_the_Taliban’s_propaganda_empire_consumed Afghan_media⠀⇛ “The ruling authority enforces a monolithic media policy, rejecting any news, narrative, or voice that deviates from what they deem the truth. Even personal opinions expressed on platforms like Facebook are treated as propaganda and punished accordingly,” Ahmad Quraishi, director of the exiled Afghanistan Journalists Center, told CPJ. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Fact-Checking_Trump’s_False_and Misleading_Claims_About_Crime_in_D.C.⠀⇛ Here’s an assessment of some of their claims. o § Censorship/Free Speech⠀➾ # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ Germany_rejects_US_censorship_claims_in human_rights_report⠀⇛ Human rights, such as freedom of expression, are under threat in Germany and other European countries, according to the 2024 Human Rights Report by the US State Department. The report, which in former years has been seen as a reliable point of reference for global human rights advocacy, has been criticized by human rights groups as containing numerous omissions and mischaracterizations to fit the current US administration's political aims. The German government rejected the report. # ⚓ The Nation ☛ A_Free_Speech_Shakedown—Trump’s_Approach_to American_Civil_Society ⠀⇛ These actions reveal a critical vulnerability in civil society’s constitutional armor. When institutions are heavily dependent on federal support—whether federal dollars for scientific research or federal approval of business transactions—an unethical president can threaten to withhold support if he doesn’t get his way. Trump has done just that, time and again. And it’s working. He has compromised the independence of civil society—or perhaps more accurately, exploited its dependence. o § Freedom of Information / Freedom of the Press⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ U.K._Secretly_Spent_$3.2_Million_to_Stop Journalists_From_Reporting_on_Data_Breach⠀⇛ The breach, which happened in 2022, exposed the personal details of thousands of Afghans who had worked with British forces before the Taliban takeover in 2021. The government, led by the Conservative Party at the time, went to England’s High Court to obtain an order barring anyone from disclosing the breach, even to the people whose lives were feared to be at risk from the Taliban as a result. Journalists were also prevented from reporting on the existence of the court order itself. # ⚓ Press Gazette ☛ Reach_hiring_journalists_in_Australia_to cover_UK_overnight_hours⠀⇛ The UK’s largest commercial news publisher Reach is hiring an overnight team in Australia for the first time. # ⚓ CPJ ☛ Journalists_fear_volatile_Bolivia_elections_may escalate_press_attacks⠀⇛ With polls showing Doria and Quiroga in the lead, the vote stands to reshape Bolivia’s economic future and political landscape after 20 years of MAS in power. Yet during a research mission to the country in June, journalists told the Committee to Protect Journalists that their focus lies not on who wins, but on whether conditions for the press will finally improve. o § Civil Rights/Policing⠀➾ # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Four_Years_On,_UN_Says_Taliban_Close_To_'Erasing' Afghan_Women_From_Public_Life⠀⇛ Since returning to power on August 15, 2021, Taliban officials have imposed a series of draconian rules that strip Afghan women and girls of their rights and dignity, the gender equality agency UN Women said on August 11. The Taliban-led government has banned girls from school beyond the sixth grade, while women are barred from most jobs and political life. They also must adhere to a strict Islamic dress code outside their homes. # ⚓ Alabama Reflector ☛ University_of_Alabama_attorneys_claim minority-focused_spaces_could_be_'unlawful_segregation'_| Alabama_Reflector⠀⇛ In a brief filed Tuesday last week, attorneys for the university cited a July memorandum from U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi, claiming that DEI initiatives can be considered discriminatory and may be in violation of federal anti-discrimination laws. o § Internet Policy/Net Neutrality⠀➾ # ⚓ Tedium ☛ Does_AOL_Ditching_Dial-Up_Kill_Dial-Up?⠀⇛ Dial-up is likely never going to totally die, unless the landline phone system itself gets knocked offline, which AT&T has admittedly been itching to do. It remains one of the cheapest options to get online outside of drinking a single coffee at a Panera and bringing your laptop. AOL is simply too weak to support this next generation themselves. Their inroad to broadband was supposed to be Time Warner Cable; that didn’t work out, so they pivoted to something else, but kept around the legacy business while it was still profitable. It’s likely that emerging technologies, like Microsoft’s Airband Initiative, which relies on distributing broadband over unused “white spaces” on the television dial, stand a better shot. It’s likely that 5G connectivity will improve over time (T-Mobile already promotes it as a rural option), and perhaps someone not named Elon Musk will offer an alternative to Starlink eventually. Technologies don’t die. They just slowly become so irrelevant that they might as well be dead. § Monopolies/Monopsonies⠀➾ o ⚓ India Times ☛ Epic_Games_wins_partial_victory_in_Australian_court against_Google_and_Apple⠀⇛ Federal Court Justice Jonathan Beach upheld key parts of Epic's claim that the tech giants breached Australian competition laws by misusing their market power against app developers and using restrictive trade practices. o ⚓ Idiomdrottning ☛ Network_Freedom_Act⠀⇛ Make it illegal. Network effect applications (whether it’s software, hardware, or services) can’t be proprietary. o ⚓ Dedoimedo ☛ Internet_search_without_Google_or_Bing,_sort_of⠀⇛ AKA alternative search engines. Here's one for you. In 2025, you know that your online habits are being profiled. All the time, by almost everyone, a million times over. Indeed, when you do any sort of search anywhere, your queries (your questions) tell a great deal about you to whomever you ask. Thus, if you tend to utilize Google or Bing for your search, you're "disclosing" tons of personal information. On its own, this ain't a big problem, because the actions are voluntary (if unavoidable in the modern world). But then, throw in the slew of Google and Microsoft services everywhere, and your search becomes a virtual mirror of your identity. If you're keen on privacy, you might want to consider not doing so, or to minimize your interaction with these search engines. o ⚓ Ben Werdmuller ☛ Perplexity_Makes_Longshot_$34.5_Billion_Offer for_Chrome⠀⇛ The thing I’ve learned about tech companies breaking down monopolies is that many of them just want to become the next monopoly rather than establish a genuinely different power dynamic. o § Trademarks⠀➾ # § Right of Publicity⠀➾ # ⚓ Michigan Advance ☛ Bills_banning_deepfake_pornography return_to_the_Michigan_Senate_floor⠀⇛ If approved by both chambers, House Bills 4047 and 4048 would place criminal penalties on the creation and distribution of deep fakes depicting individuals in an intimate or sexual context, and would allow individuals to take civil action over the non-consensual creation of deepfake pornography. o § Copyrights⠀➾ # ⚓ Matt Wedel ☛ “Rights_of_papers_are_owned_by_the_publishers hence,_there_is_no_consent_needed_from_authors”_|_Sauropod Vertebra_Picture_of_the_Week⠀⇛ Folks, when you send your work to Elsevier journals, you are literally giving them away. Given them rights that explicitly invite them to ride roughshod over your rights. * FSF_Infrastructure_Under_Constant_Attack * Moral_Standards_From_the_Masters_of_Linux ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 4143 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊𝐒 ═════════════════════════════════════════════╕ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Links 14/08/2025: Second-hand ThinkPad and Enhanced Surveillance on Chipsets from the United States⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 14, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Berlin_Wall_section_at_Newseum_in_Washington,_DC⦈_ 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇GNOME bluefish⦈ § Contents⠀➾ * Leftovers o Science o Hardware o Health/Nutrition/Agriculture o Proprietary o Security # Privacy/Surveillance o Defence/Aggression o Environment # Energy/Transportation # Wildlife/Nature # Overpopulation o Finance o AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics o Censorship/Free_Speech o Freedom_of_Information_/_Freedom_of_the_Press o Civil_Rights/Policing o Digital_Restrictions_(DRM) o Monopolies/Monopsonies # Patents # Trademarks # Copyrights * § Leftovers⠀➾ o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ It's_Official:_'Ghost_Particle'_That Smashed_Into_Earth_Breaks_Records⠀⇛ Hot damn. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Australian_Parrots_Perform_30_Dance_Moves, With_17_New_to_Science⠀⇛ You are the dancing queen, young and sweet, only featheryyy. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Star_Trying_to_Swallow_a_Black_Hole_May Have_Triggered_a_New_Type_of_Supernova⠀⇛ What is this, opposite day? # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Supermassive_Black_Hole_Caught_in_The_Act of_Switching_on⠀⇛ Good morning sunshine! # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Vegetarian_Diets_Can_Slash_Cancer_Risk_by Up_to_45%,_Large_Study_Finds⠀⇛ Especially gastrointestinal cancers. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ 18_Year_Study_Reveals_Truth_of_Where_Giant Rogue_Waves_Come_From⠀⇛ They're not just freak occurrences. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Ancient_Teeth_Suggest_Our_Ancestors_Lived Side_by_Side_With_a_Mysterious_Hominin⠀⇛ Friends or foes? o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ Getting_a_cheap_and_cheerful_second-hand ThinkPad⠀⇛ I’ve held off long enough, but I think it has to happen. I adore my old Japanese Let’s Note machines for on- call laptops, but I’d love an older ThinkPad for some distraction-free writing. Throw NetBSD on it, use that wonderful keyboard, and focus. # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ I'm_building_a_media_server_out_of leftover_PC_parts_and_a_3D_printed_case⠀⇛ Why buy a PC server when you can build one using spare parts and a 3D printer? # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Report:_US_government_placing_trackers_in Hey_Hi_(AI)_server_shipments_to_enforce_chip_export controls⠀⇛ The U.S. is reportedly trying to crack down on artificial intelligence chips being shipped to China by placing tracking devices inside the computer servers it believes are at high risk of being diverted from their intended destinations. # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ U.S._authorities_allegedly_placed_secret tracking_devices_in_Hey_Hi_(AI)_chip_shipments_to_China_— report_claims_targeted_shipments_from_Dell_and_Super_Micro containing_Nvidia_and_AMD_chips_had_trackers_in_packaging_and servers_themselves⠀⇛ Several anonymous sources claim that U.S. authorities sometimes implant trackers on Hey Hi (AI) servers that are bound for export to see where they end up. # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Huawei_releases_new_tool_to_get_Chinese firms_around_crushing_HBM_export_blacklist_—_new_UCM_software claims_up_to_22x_throughput_gain_and_90%_latency_reduction for_traditional_cache_hierarchies_in_Hey_Hi_(AI)_workloads⠀⇛ Huawei's newest software tool, called the Unified Cache Manager, seeks to optimize utilization across the traditional cache hierarchy for Hey Hi (AI) inference, allowing China's Hey Hi (AI) firms to be more competitive without the need for exotic HBM memory that is near-impossible to obtain in the country. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Ore_Formation:_Introduction_And_Magmatic Processes⠀⇛ Hackaday has a long-running series on Mining and Refining, that tracks elements of interest on the human-made road from rocks to riches. What author Dan Maloney doesn’t address in that series is the natural history that comes before the mine. You can’t just plunk down a copper mine or start squeezing oil from any old stone, after all: first, you need ore. Ore has to come from somewhere. In this series, we’re going to get down and dirty into the geology of ore-forming processes to find out from wither come the rocks that hold our elements of interest. # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Intel_CEO_Lip-Bu_Tan_has_become_a lightning_rod_of_controversy_amid_US_and_China_geopolitical tensions_—_here's_why⠀⇛ The CEO of Intel, Lip-Bu Tan, is under serious pressure from government administrators and watchdogs over alleged ties to Chinese technology firms, and his recent leadership of a US company that was fined for selling chip design software to firms linked to the Chinese military. # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Alif_Ensemble_E4,_E6,_and_E8_Cortex-M55/A32 MCUs_and_MPUs_feature_Ethos-U85_NPU_for_small_language_models (SLM)⠀⇛ Alif Semiconductor unveiled the Ensemble E4, E6, and E8 dual-core Cortex-M55 Edge Hey Hi (AI) microcontrollers and fusion processors, all equipped with Arm Ethos-U85 with the ability to run small language models (SLM) on-device while consuming just 36mW of power on the E4 SKU.

His remarks came as Egypt said it was working hard for a two-month ceasefire. Israeli political commentator, Dr. Orl Goldberg gives further explanation. # ⚓ France24 ☛ 'Israel's_domestic_political_struggle:_Not_a call_to_end_war,_not_a_call_against_ethnic_cleansing'⠀⇛ Israelis are again protesting Netanyahu, with a general strike planned—yet the country’s largest trade union remains uninvolved. Political analyst Dr. Ori Goldberg notes these protests echo past years, lacking institutional support and avoiding criticism of the war or alleged ethnic cleansing. He frames them as a domestic political struggle, not a moral reckoning. “As long as protesters don't reject Netanyahu's policies outright,” he warns, “they effectively endorse them—and Netanyahu knows it, which is why he allows the protests.” Despite widespread discontent, Goldberg stresses Netanyahu remains the strongest contender if snap elections are held. # ⚓ The Strategist ☛ An_Indo-Pacific_role_for_Britain’s aircraft_carriers:_high-value_escort⠀⇛ Britain has had an aircraft carrier strike group in the Indo-Pacific since May, raising an obvious question: what would its two carriers do in the event of an Indo-Pacific war? # ⚓ The Strategist ☛ Enterprising_adversaries:_Escalating_cyber threats_in_the_Indo-Pacific⠀⇛ The Indo-Pacific’s cyber threat environment has entered a new phase. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Malaysia’s_ex-economy_minister_says_his son_was_jabbed_with_syringe_in_planned_attack⠀⇛ Mr Rafizi described it as the first time his family had been targeted in such an attack. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Pakistan_Is_in_Convicted_Felon’s_Good Graces,_but_for_How_Long?⠀⇛ Hell Toupée hosted the South Asian nation’s army chief and seeks deals on critical minerals and crypto.
