What happened today? Behind closed doors, the Law Enforcement Working Party group approved the revised Danish Chat Control compromise with broad support. While mandatory scanning had officially been dropped, Article 4 of the new text reframes and reintroduces it by obliging providers of e-mail, chat, and messenger services to take “all appropriate risk mitigation measures”. This effectively forces providers to scan all messages, including private, end-to-end encrypted content. The same article outlaws anonymous communication by requiring every citizen to verify their age before accessing a service, kneecapping whistleblowers, journalists, political activists, and people seeking help who depend on anonymity. Article 6 further imposes a digital house arrest and would ban minors from installing software which comes with a significant risk of grooming, such as WhatsApp, Instagram, and online games like Roblox. What happens next? The legislation now moves to the Coreper (Committee of Permanent Representations) for approval. Without major political objections, the Council will formally adopt its position. At this stage, both the Council and Commission unite in imposing mass surveillance on all 450 million citizens of the European Union and we enter a rushed trilogue. Unfortunately, while the mandate of the European Parliament does not suffer from the same flaws, the Parliament is traditionally known for giving in. What now? We raise our voices. Louder.

worth emphasizing that the protection of pedophiles and the attacks on trans people are consistent, complementary positions from the media elite. transitioning is an act of profound autonomy, i.e. anathema to a system of oppression, control, and rape practiced by a cabal of powerful oligarchs

You have to be born with it, just like with the ears.

videogames are *so* art they have attained the cultural position of being primarily an instrument of financial speculation for the already-wealthy

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.

KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.

His reply was a doozy.

Imagine killing 600,000 black and brown people with a few keystrokes and not having a care in the world but one little old white lady drags you on Twitter and you spiral for a week.

The Alternative to Medium/Substack - Sharpie Posts Stop using closed-sourced solutions and move towards free and open-sources options that scale better, especially for indie creators.

If you want to start a newsletter and don't want to use Substack because they currently platform/sponsor Nazis: consider using the free and open-sourced alternative that has been around for over a decade.

I'll personally walk you through it.

It's very funny and original.

I feel like because he's trapped in wanting/having to change styles for something that also needs to stay recognizable and can't really change.

No. You are not allowed. I will stop you, physically.

Give OpenAI all of your money and they'll build a machine to create an explanation you can understand as long as you don't question it too hard.

Yes and yet several European countries are embracing a far-right worldview that would burn these policies to the ground, so let’s be not be smug or complacent here - particularly as Mamdani‘s pro-immigration stance is radical by European standards.

I don't think I've ever seen this not compressed to hell and back...

I can answer that
* business guy who runs a company because he has an MBA and rich friends
* person entering leadership sideways from leadership in an unrelated industry w/ no desire to learn
* single-discipline dev who went indie and has never had to think about full production before

I it's across multiple industries. I've seen this on the tech side of companies AFTER it happened on the business side as well.

I think CEOs are so nervous about the "Peter Principle" and so hooked on management guru advice it's become standard practice to hire externally based on "business" cred.

An excerpt from the linked Newsweek article: "A bigger impediment to President Bush's dream of reducing the U.S. nuclear arsenal may be his own Pentagon. America's nuclear-force structure is like a Rubik's Cube, deceptively difficult to dismantle. That's what Dick Cheney found out in the spring of 1989, a few weeks after he had taken over as secretary of Defense for Bush's father. Cheney was given a slide show on the SIOP, 60 to 100 images laying out the sequence of strikes planned in a nuclear war. Each strike was represented by a red dot. At its cold-war height in the mid-'80s, there were 16,000 Soviet targets in the SIOP database. By 1989 the number had shrunk to 12,500. Even so, close to 500 warheads were targeted on the Moscow area alone. A single anti-missile radar at Pushkino, northeast of Moscow, was targeted with 69 warheads. Cheney watched, dumbstruck, as the red dots metastasized across the Soviet Union. Finally, he said, 'Who ordered all this?' The Air Force chief of staff, Gen. Larry Welch, answered, 'You did, sir. You and your predecessors.'"

What would have happened if Reagan had ordered a nuclear attack _from_ Moscow? Less than a year after this photograph was taken, newly-installed Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney was astonished to discover we had 500 thermonuclear warheads targeted on Moscow alone. www.newsweek.com/dropping-bom...

I am so upset.

Last week Time Magazine solicited a piece from me on Zohran Mamdani & anti-Muslim hate. I pitched a framing re the dehumanization of Muslims & how Mamdani’s inclusive, socialist campaign in its content resists that. They agreed. I wrote the piece. 1/

Thanks so much for reaching out and for the kind words about the game, we're thrilled you're loving Outer Worlds 2! It's great to hear you're even trying to contribute feedback on the issue tracker. You've run right into a common security feature where disabling 2FA also requires a current code to prove you're the account owner making the change. Since your issue is with the Obsidian account system (for the issue tracker) and involves account security, this is something our specialized account security team needs to handle directly. They're the only ones who can verify your ownership and safely disable the authenticator app link without a current code. Please email their dedicated support channel directly right now at support@obsidian.md. - In your email, explain exactly what you told me: you lost access to your authenticator app, you used a backup code to log in, but you can't disable 2FA because it still asks for an authenticator code. - Mention that you can provide any proof of account ownership they need. The support team at that address is equipped to work through the necessary identity verification steps to get that 2FA disabled for you.

When you email issues to Obsidian Entertainment (the video game company) their AI support hallucinates and tells you to email Obsidian (the note-taking company) instead.

If the reward function is to reduce the number of touches in a support ticket, this is one way to do it.

Once again:

it's real good (so far), you're in for a treat.

Censorship is now coming for your dnd and your warhammer and your farming sim, they don't care if it's not adult content. They wanted everything
