Fwiw I’ve had small interactions with dessalines on issue reports and didn’t get great vibes and have stopped filing frontend issues. Nothing huge just didn’t get the sense I was welcome here.

Alternative link with more info https://www.axios.com/2023/08/09/twitter-x-trump-account-search-warrant Special counsel served Twitter search warrant for Trump account

Special counsel Jack Smith obtained a search warrant in January for data from former President Trump’s Twitter account as part of his investigation into Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Twitter was recently found in contempt for delaying compliance with the warrant and ordered to pay a $350,000 fine. The existence of the warrant and Twitter’s noncompliance had not been previously disclosed due to a nondisclosure order. Twitter initially objected to the order before providing the requested information past a court deadline. The special counsel is investigating Trump’s actions surrounding the transfer of power after the 2020 election. Last week, Trump was indicted on several charges including conspiracy related to interfering with the election certification.

I posted this link with the hope someone would make this reference. 👩‍🍳🤌

Interesting vox video about geoengineering. I find the coalition of scientists demanding we don’t even look at geo eng tech, like zero research into it frustrating. https://youtu.be/EKPFZPyQurA

You think we can solve primary problems? Cause all I see is us driving off a cliff. If we aren’t willing to hit the breaks I’ll settle for turning the car into a bush

Yes. That’s exactly what they would do if it was anyone else. Your bail would be revoked. Or you would be tossed in jail for contempt of court.

A list of recent hostile moves by #Google’s #Chrome team; handy for sharing with your entourage, to explain why they should stop using #Chromium / #GoogleChrome and use #Firefox or #Epiphany as their main #web #browser :

• The “Manifest v3” sabotage of content blocking extensions

😀 just want to note theres a call out to this debate in the Wikipedia page on copyright infringement. I promise I didn’t add that paragraph there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_infringement

“Is copyright infringement theft” is something that had been debated for as long as mp3s were a thing. This is an old argument with lots of material on both sides scattered across the web. I clearly fall on the side of copyright infringement is theft and theft is stealing.

Re: Stolen. Not stolen comments Copyright law as interpreted judges is still being worked out on AI. Stay tuned if it’s defined as stolen or not. But even if the courts decide existing copyright law would define training on artists work as legitimate use. The law can change and it still could swing the way of the artist if congress got involved.

My personal opinion, which may not reflect what happens legally is I hope we all get more control over our data and how it’s used and sold. Wether that’s my personal data like my comments, location or my artistic data like my paintings. I think that would be a better world
