Just to emphasize, if you want to show tangible support for journalists taking the RCMP to court for arresting a #journalist on assignment, seizing her equipment and holding her for three nights, the Narwhal has four suggestions, including, if you're in #Vancouver, attending court anytime over the five weeks of the trial (starting Jan 12).

Probably on her way to smash some government property. Or Teslas. :blobfoxdevil:

Good news story!

Switzerland said "no" to Palantir after 7 years of Palantir lobbying
Journalists FOIA'd and published this
Now other nations are looking into the extraordinary pressure and whether it might not be prudent to let a USA-aligned corp handle citizens' most private data (medical, tax, residence, assets, etc).

we must have made them very nervous, since lawmakers in Germany and UK are questioning the contracts. It is possible that authorities are hesitating to sign new contracts. So we have triggered something that they are starting this PR campaign against us (I don't remember another media company being mentioned on their blog).

All of this thread infosec.exchange/@adfichter/11 is encouraging! Now while the story is hot, it is a great time to email your local journos and ask if maybe your municipality, state/dept/province, or nation is being pressured to work with Palantir or other authoritarian-aligned corporations!

Particularly as we watch the abject failure of US media, I find it hard to believe that fewer than 8,000 Canadians want to get foreign ownership out of Canadian media.

Mild observations about LLMs in workplaces 

I just realized part of why these things are being pushed to be used by managerial types. On top of the pie-in-the-sky promise of getting more work done in less time (bullshit), they are unaware of the shortcoming these things have because it takes an actual working knowledge of a subject to find the numerous flaws in their outputs a lot of the time.

And goodness knows, most management knows *nothing*

:boostRequest: :boostRequest: So I was making toast this morning, and I got to wondering how many folks here are both furries and mineral enthusiasts (shortened here to “M.E.”). There’s no strict criteria just pick what you feel describes you best.

I quit Spotify a few years ago and have been mainly using Bandcamp instead. You can make public playlists now, so here's one I made collecting some of my fave tracks and artists!
