I would ask for you to take up the challenge of making a project that works on the user machine only, and draws webpages visually. Have a look at the project on my profile.
I would like to see a graphical drawing program, web-based, vanilla, made specifically for the user with no external dependencies.
Maybe it's something to think about?

Multi-Language is better.
Remember when Mastodon had all of those languages?... and then you could just translate them easily and respond? We had at least twice as many potential interactions, good times.
Here's how to make it that way again, just in case you didn't notice. If you don't choose any, then it uses your browser default language only.
Solution: Select them all.
The image alt text has a mild tutorial.

While you were sleeping...
#Fediverse post #schema metadata upgrades, and a shift in the #Google algorithm, in near tandem.
This was a pretty big and heavy hitting move for anyone who might have missed it.
https://coywolf.com/news/social-media/mastodons-social-posts-are-now-optimized-for-google-search/
Very shortly after we saw Google making a move, which in hindsight validated the Mastodon masterstroke.

#SocialMedia: Closed monopolies which don't allow indexing, or the open #Fediverse which serves it richly.
#Mastodon changed the game.

That makes a lot of sense to me because you can almost confirm that a certain person would need to be at the location. It's still difficult to prove who is holding the device in question.

@gerrymcgovern@mastodon.green it is so often that the solution to a situation of overuse of resources is to purchase and use an apparently 'cleaner' method. The only problem is that we are still push people to consume, and the consumption doesn't become less.
The argument doesn't ever seem to be 'consume less'. Instead it's 'buy our product which is clean'.

@anderseknert@swecyb.com this is an excellent commentary on the tricky nature of HTML. They can make it impossible to click something that is technically available.
Conversely, it can be made impossible to click something that is on the screen. Once you are on someone else's website, they control the entire experience.

@gerrymcgovern@mastodon.green I'm sure that it is not only that any single data-centre location, itself, does not employ very many workers on site but, also that they contribute in a very direct way to destroying employment broadly. Not to mention competing against the population directly for vital resources.
Whether this persists after the race to the plateau concludes is anyone's guess.

@david_chisnall@infosec.exchange that's absolutely fascinating, the argument is somehow that it is a work of complete fiction which is derived from non-fictional sources(assumed). I guess we are back to the impossibility of validation. Does this stop them cold? Or do we have to wait until other countries test the same case.

Other questions: Does this ruling only affect the summary? If so, is it only in the sense that it has appeared automatically without an option? Is the 'AI mode' covered in the same sense and subject to the same ruling generally?

@fionasboots@tech.lgbt @Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchange I don't know if we're that far gone but, in general I think everyone should have all of that set up. They should make that a standard on any communication device. It seems very militaristic and utilitarian.
You have to ask, if my device can do this, why shouldn't we use it all the time?
I just wonder whether there are enough other people using it within any area to make it interesting.

is it only then an additional hurdle for purchase? This change then could be affecting anyone who is unable to produce government issued ID.
This seems like there maybe be a poverty-line issue, where someone can't provide ID, maybe lost it, and then there is an extra challenge for them to be able to get something very basic(telephone).

Is there a requirement and direct connection made through a government channel, or is it a nearly 'honour-system' from the phone company salesperson?
I'm seeing a lot of people saying this has already been in place for a while in their country, never was an issue.

@veronica@mastodon.online @swachter@toot.boston @gknauss@mastodon.social very well said. It essentially amounts to a fascism in the sense that they dictate for that concentration of wealth. And that is where there is the potential for danger, harm, and corruption.
The potential influence is too strong and broad.
Is it even possible for a person with that much wealth to dispose of the wealth? I think Bill Gates tried to do it. Probably just felt guilty for having too much.

Very interesting article. More questions: If my machine is so crappy and old that it can't run AI locally, am I essentially locally immune? (kinda)
Conversely, is this most likely to affect the best machines first? (they've got a lot of room)

If it's your website, it's not social media.
Not sure how they would implement this anyhow, force the companies to require identifications? (like linked-in)

@gknauss@mastodon.social not to say you are completely off the mark here, charitability on a larger scale which is proportionate to the wealth of any person should absolutely be encouraged, even demanded. However, the majority of the 'listed wealth' of any top valued person is, in general, fully engaged economically or has been counted from stock ownership, percent ownerships, etc.
It's not always a Liberace, wearing a gold/diamond encrusted suit worth all of that value.

AI is itself an implementation in what sense? Where do we expect efficiencies to be found through these means? What is the approximate timeframe for the plateau?
They say it's an "AI Race" but, it's more like being kicked down the mountain to a plateau. Feels exactly like tyranny.

I'm sure everyone know this @greenpeace@mastodon.social but, I would still like to point out that 'plastics' are actually a by-product of oil and gas production.
Sometimes people don't make that connection.
The equation of the longevity of each type of plastic is basically built directly from the oil and gas production process.
There are some special formulations that have no equal but, you can't get oil and gas without a giant heap of trash. Either now or later after being used a few times first.
OIL + GAS

@sarajw@front-end.social @tg@indieweb.social hi. I did a single-file vanilla JS program for drawing websites/front end stuff.
It might be worth having a look. It's fairly easy to use, and I have completed the documentation up to the current stage of development.
Every time I look at it, it seems amazing again, it even rolls the images up into a single image atlas in the outgoing file(s).
It can even be a good starting point for making the interface for your own single-file programs.

@MarciaW@ohai.social the Canadian government, while denouncing and condemning the war, still somehow just let the weapons continue to go out. It's a classic case of saying one thing and doing the complete opposite.
Our politicians are all liars, and they have made Canada part of the war effort which they condemned.
Some of them didn't even condemn the war. They somehow still support this, even while it has been absolutely clear the whole time what is really going on, and what the intention truly is.

Where is the EU at on that?
