Khamenei is a priest. 'Nuff said. Israel is a theocratic state. Religious people attacking each other, with normal people in the middle. Once more, Rome did it first, 900 something years ago.

Well, at least she made it to Palestine.

I am personally supporting Ukrainians every week. I am also pro-rearmament in the EU.

That said, said by Germany, this should be read as “we are strongly reliant on heavy industries, but our cars in record low demand, so we really, really, really want to build a lot of weapons for Ukraine (and we will keep some for us, while we decide whether to agree or not on standards and common resource pooling with the rest of the EU)”

EU needs to take several other steps before going head-first into (over-)production of weapons at the levels being discussed here.

Germany sounds every other day like they forget there other 26 countries with them in the Union. And I could say the same about France, but under the military POV France is much more defendable.

You forgot immigration.

I got downvoted to hell last time I expressed my views about religion, but it has served me well for 29 years now (having been born in the shadow of the Vatican), so I am willing to share again:

I work, collaborate, spend time and even sometimes have sex with religious people, all while maintaining the idea that each one of them is akin to a dormant terrorist cell, and that given the right conditions their fundamental distancing from reason and in some cases recognition of undeserved authority can turn against me and everyone else.

I live a subtly tense life, but usually I am already in a safe place when shit hits the fan.

I also have a very wide definition of religion and of priest.

I have read the threads up to now and, despite being ignorant about security research, I would call myself convinced of the usefulness of such a tool in the near-future to shave off time in the tasks required for this kind of work.

My problem with this is that transformer-based LLMs still don’t sound to me like the good tool for the job when it comes to such formal languages. It is surely a very expensive way to do this job.

Other architectures are getting much less attention because of this the focus of investors on this shiny toy. From my understanding, neurosymbolic AI would do a much better and potentially faster job at a task involving stable concepts.

Both of the services have the option to delete all forwarded messages. This is simply the best first step in order to be able to review what accounts still work with the old addresses (via inbox rules) and slowly change them. I use addy.io for mail aliasing already, but that is not really related to gaining independence from those companies.

And that’s why I set up forwarding from Gmail and Outlook to my new Tuta account.

In a few months I should be free, happily paying for EU alternative were the default swipe gesture stands for delete instead of archive.

This is correct and there is a Black Mirror episode that explains it well, the second one of the first season, Fifteen Million Merits.

The final condition of the protagonist in that episode is the one of the Privacy-informing Youtubers and other creators, if they cannot make enough money with Patreon or other independent revenue streams.

And even in that case, the original platform is making the most value out of it.

Beautifully said. Saving the comment.

It got worse, if possible.

At some point I got in an elevator with them and one of them was judging me for getting in the elevator skipping one person in the queue (to my defense Romero’s zombies move faster) and even the position I took in the elevator which was “not efficient”.

Jokingly, I commented of all that sounding “so German” and immediately him and his colleague started saying “oh the Italian now will start saying…” and then bursted in the most chilling collection of German=Nazi stereotypes I ever heard.

I could only stare at them and wait for the elevator to end its run.

“No longer justified”, “don’t overdo it”, “IF lines are crossed”!

Please tell me it’s not only the pro-Palestine protesters in Germany who find this language absurd.

I spent a weekend dealing with a couple of Germans and I must say that in some things there is some kind of mental barrier and some kind of guilt pride that got smeared in my face more than once in 2 days, but we really need you to be better than this and I want to have faith you can be.

(There were also Israelis, but I stopped talking to them the second they introduced themselves as such.)

That’s why I specified legally. Which, being American involved, I reckon still has very little meaning. I cannot undo mistakes I made 15 years ago. Stoically, I can only worry about how I can act in the present.

What is known, at least publicly, about Regeneron?

I hope I deleted my data just in time not to be (legally) included in this.

Actually, that does. It’s what has been happening since 3 years in Ukraine.

It is a nation including some regions given autonomy. I believe a federation by definition is comprised of exclusively equal member states forming common governmental organs.
