@duncan_bayne @cwebber but the politicians are rarely tech savvy enough to come up with the wording. It is often given to them.

@duncan_bayne @cwebber why not both? 😬

@mullvadnet the most infuriating part is that if you try to opt out your data from the broker, they ask you to give them private data to prove you are who you are. As if anyone would suffer a prejudice from being opted out against their will.

@cstross I like it. It's cute. The Plant Golem.

@susankayequinn seems like the solution is that they should limit how many new titles they allow every year. People can be prolific, but they can't write 5 novels a year and maintain quality. They should have a derogation process for authors that are uploading to BN a large number of books that were published elsewhere.

@Star12Mt I'm not sure it officially counts as solarpunk but did he read Project Hail Mary? It's feel good sci fi and everyone is going nuts about it.

@enron@tilde.zone I don't think Pokemon Go was made for training weapons. I think people who wanted to train weapons saw the potential of Pokemon Go and that is completely different.

@angusm @cstross @occult maaaaybe you need Logan's Run cristal implants to do that though. In that case I would stick to a keyboard. Thanks.

@meadmin bravo!

@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social it reminds me of the time Homer Simpson designed a car.

AI companies are still years away from making a profit, if they ever do. The government is dumping billions into an industry without a guaranteed return and creating few jobs through the data centres being built. In fact, it’s more likely they are leaving Canadian workers vulnerable by financing the industry without putting in place appropriate safeguards to protect workers’ rights. 2/2

@lukechairwalker@jasette.facil.services @pycomtois@jasette.facil.services j'ai un pont à vendre si jamais tu es intéressé. 😁

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social I remember the MeToo list. I was generally down for the concept especially when it was specific like So and So who is in band X or John Brown-Little who teaches at Y. But some of them were like Simon Tremblay fron Montreal or Mike Johnson from DC and I was like.... how is that helpful? There are clearly dozens of Mike Johnsons in DC.

@burger_jaap@mastodon.social I am shocked anyone would consider installing a gas boiler in 2026. Especially considering the mild French winters and that heat pumps also supply a/c.

@zkat @eramdam in 1995, I learned with a book called "HTML in a week". HTML1, with a grey bg and black text. And I kept up to date for maybe 10 years after that. It is still one of the most useful things I have ever learned. I use it all the time.

@siracusa@mastodon.social I joined the Patreon. Unfortunately they are not a registered charity in Canada.

@The_Whore_of_Blahbylon@mastodon.social that's a Darwin Award right there.

@david_chisnall@infosec.exchange @rlcw@ecoevo.social @simagick@freeradical.zone @ploum@mamot.fr @rootwyrm@weird.autos @MedeaVanamonde@beige.party @pndc@social.treehouse.systems @cstross@wandering.shop exactly, the problem is these companies are at the top of indices and small investors buy indices, then it boosts the stocks who get higher and on even more indices. Ppl you know with 20k/100k/300k all their retirements in ETFs or mutual funds. "Common sense" in the small investor world is to "buy the s&p500" or buy another "all included diversified ETF" usually with the largest share of its exposure to US stocks.

@JMarkOckerbloom@mastodon.social @peterpur@hci.social the library should ask for its money back. It's like the people who got sick because they bought an AI generated mushroom guide.

@fossheim@front-end.social it's scary that this person thinks ChatGPT is smart.

@Dirty_Snoop @lemonde ils mettent le prix comme si juste les touristes allaient au stade et pas les employés. Par contre, ce montant est le salaire minimum fédéral. Le salaire minimum de NY est bcp plus élevé. Mais pas assez pour un billet de train à 150$. J'imagine qu'il y aura des navettes juste pour les employés.

@NatureMC@mastodon.online @burger_jaap@mastodon.social but the original post says gas boilers in new housing. This is insanity.

@elnecesario@mastodon.social @marioguzman@mastodon.social with Deezer, migration takes 5 minutes.

@Bill_Barilko@mstdn.ca @funcrunch@me.dm a genius at what?

@IanAMartin@thecanadian.social @cstross@wandering.shop I feel like I should know who painted that cover but I can't put my finger on it. I was going to say Dave Palumbo because of the palette, but not enough brush strokes.

@georgetakei@universeodon.com even Trump barely knows what Trump is saying.
