NEW: U.S. prosecutors say the hacking tools that Peter "Doogie" Williams stole from defense contractor L3Harris Trenchant could have been used against "millions of computers and devices" worldwide.
The prosecutors also confirmed that Williams "stood idly by while another employee of the company was essentially blamed" for his own actions, as we first reported last year.
Williams said he didn't know the tools could end up in the hands of Russia or other governments.

-- ICE is supposed to be switching to night raids soon to avoid observers.
-- it's generally understood that if you're detained it's a mugging and if you're raided it's an armed robbery because they WILL steal your shit. phones are #1 obviously so they can find more victims, but anything they can steal and sell, they will. pass this on if you have anyone to pass it onto. i have been explicitly given the "PLEASE DO" of sharing on this. social media has slowed down not because it's gotten better but because people have gotten tired or bored and minnesotans are too busy fighting back and trying to survive.

If Mastodon is chronically underfunded, shouldn't we discuss serious public investment in its development, including its usability and design?
Twitter was purchased for $43 billion and is now widely used to amplify disinformation and polarization through hate speech and an extremist agenda.
How much are we willing to invest in a bold, interoperable, European alternative that strengthens democratic discourse?
If projects like “EuroSky” move forward, will public funding be diverted there, instead of supporting and scaling the Fediverse?
Mastodon already exists and has millions of users, official EU servers, and institutional accounts. Why start from scratch when what works can be strengthened?

@sandropisano @Imprinted @gazzettadelcadavere il problema dei paesi europei è la lentezza. Il Tempest ancora non ne vuole sapere di uscire fuori.
Attualmente però anche l'F-35 è eccessivamente avanzato per gli scenari d'uso, considerate, che fino a quando seguivo l'ambiente nei social commerciali, gli usa stavano dismettendo alcuni F-22 per fare posto a F-15 con aggiornamenti.

Inspired by a discussion elsewhere:
I've been on the Internet since 1987, started a career building the commercial Internet in 1995, and have spent the last 25 years writing books about how to build foundational Internet infrastructure. I've consulted for and worked with any number of dot-coms, and the one lesson I've gotten over and over again?
The Internet's business model is betrayal.
We have no smart lights. No voice assistants. No Alexa or Siri. No video doorbell. Our thermostat and appliances constantly complain about their lack of Internet. None of this stuff is safe.
The Internet tech I do use? A desktop PC. Email on my phone is for travel only: airplane tickets, hotel reservations, hockey and concert tix. Location on my phone? Nope, we use a dedicated non-networked GPS in the car. The microphones are off.
How can a light bulb betray me? I don't know. I do know that the vendors have put a LOT of thought into it, though, and I can't out-think all of them.

OK, that's concerning. Got a message from the police that tell me about a new register for my weapons.
I don't have any weapons!? What?

One of the surprising (at least to me) consequences of the fall of Twitter is the rise of LinkedIn as a social media site. I saw some interesting posts I wanted to call attention to: First, Simon W…Surfing Complexity
Yes, [AI] represents a significant shift in how we build software, it moves us further away from how the underlying stuff actually works, but the benefits exceed the risks.
I don't know about that last one. If it weren't for the numerous massive externalities the current crop of AI currently has, it might have been easier to argue for it, but in the current situation, I don't think it's that clear-cut.
Of course it's easier to clump the people who are concerned about these never-before-seen externalities with the people who are averse to change in their craft in order to dismiss both wholesale.
@Liam Proven Also the difference between AI and the entirety of the technologies mentioned in this article is that machine learning (of which LLMs are an outcrop) is deliberately designed to obscure its inner working. It is a feature that makes it incredibly effective to reach its goal, but as a result even machine learning experts cannot explain how a system produced a given outcome, by design.
So "nobody can't understand everything" as a hand-waving for AI is terribly reductionist. We voluntarily made computer systems inaccurate in order to bring about God in the machine and we ended up with a shitty climate change acceleratory Eliza.
It's not intentional. The images are still replicating from the old storage to the new storage bucket. I will see if there's something I can do to accelerate that.
I am not sure what's going on with the trending page. I will take a look. Apologies for the trouble
Oh sure - they're all talking about balloons now - but we all know the real reason for the closure.
"In 1999, I interviewed Prince for TIME and he told me to leave my tape recorder off because he didn’t trust what future technology might do with unauthorized recordings of his voice.
At the time, I thought Prince was being paranoid ... I realize now that Prince wasn’t paranoid, he was prescient."
Hello UK #GreenParty members on here: I would really like the Green Party to set up on #Mastodon. Our local party (closed down after last election by somewhat erratic unilateral decision) has just reestablished and it is all X, FB and Insta. I have suggested Mastodon but noone knows it. I will work on it locally but is there any way to take it to the top somehow? Can we get together on here to write an email? Any suggestions welcome. #UKpolitics
I'm rather certain I've posted this one before. but looking at this picture pleases me so much, I decided to share it again
