So, it saddens me a bit that @pixelfed encourages the use of a #photofilter. Reality has become hard to distinguish from rubbish, these days on Ye olde Internetz. I'm not against using a filter perse,but it should be clear that it has been used. Just as you are encouraged to mention use of #AI. I like reading a novel, but it has to be clear it's fiction. Do you see the similarity? I like seeing what you really see. Not what an app makes of it. The first photo above has a #Pixelfed "1984" filter Yes,. It is all a bit Orwellian. AIN'T IT? (Which one is the "real" one?) Go #Vegan btw

🆕 blog! “Blunt Banhammer Blocks Basic Bots Ballistically” I cut bot traffic to my site by over 80% with a simple trap. Last month, my hobby website OpenBenches.org transferred more than 2.5TB of data to visitors. As much as I'd like to think the site is enormously popular, it looks like it is just AI bots endlessly crawling the data and… 👀 Read more: https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2026/11/blunt-banhammer-blocks-basic-bots-ballistically/ ⸻ #AI #bot #CyberSecurity #NaBloPoMo #PHP #WebDev

There’s a 96% chance 2027 will be the hottest year on record, according to Carbon Brief. Temperature records are breaking and climate disasters are taking lives. We must confront corporate greed and the politicians enabling it. Every delay puts all of us at risk. Put LIVES BEFORE PROFITS. Leave oil and gas in the ground, end industrial meat and dairy, abolish luxury emissions and halt reckless Big Tech expansion NOW. #climate #climatechange #climatecrisis #fossilfuels #meat #dairy #tech #AI

#Nvidia, the underlying hardware of the #AI bubble, is headed by Jensen Huang. #Huang had an affair. That's not the news. The news is, the nvidia board is investigating it because they think he was catfished by a spy. (Who doesn't love a little light treason with their side piece, I ask you?) Whatever he did was so bad that this...this is an official Nvidia announcement. Stock market gonna be wild tomorrow!

#Etsy has updated their Terms of Service to force sellers to allow the use of their photographs, videos, and text to train #AI. There is no opt-out. It seems bonkers to me that Etsy, a website which ostensibly sells human-made creations, is forcing sellers to enable AI to learn from and subsequently copy their own products. I guess they now feel that they have enough market share that people will not leave over this.

@Tutanota@mastodon.social Like @redscare@snabelen.no #Question - IS IT #PRIVACY 1st BUT #AI 2nd? / 5th? 10th? (With respect to clear the air I say this...) I also would like to hear a "#disvow" to #AI or sub-specifics - I haven't read or haven't see everything to judge (and see a lot of good - like rebel-good!) - but just clearly say: 1 - "No to AI completely... or partially"? 2 - Is AI defined for you like as calculators and spreadsheet or really higher up the AI ladder ? I'LL BOOST IT HERE if poisitive! Ty <3

‘AI clog’: UK public bodies battle onslaught of chatbot-generated complaints | AI (artificial intelligence) | The Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/nov/08/ai-clog-public-bodies-local-authorities-onslaught-chatbot-generated-correspondence Again, BigTech really didn't consider the implications when they unleashed the monster. Or better, they didn't give a damn, and only considered the profit aspect. Shame they haven't made any yet. #AI #GenAI
