Yeah honestly, this wasn’t too far off the GTA V torture mission. Can’t believe the creators saw no issue with this.

I know people here probably don’t want to jump back across, but people are actually wondering if this isn’t just NSFW and if it’s political…

2·3 days agoYeah, totally agree with you there.
Do think the Coalition are still going to go with the “Dutton will have the exact attitude of Trump” campaign?
The US president simply saying these words puts huge numbers of people in the middle east at risk. Even many of his own voters are shocked, because he promised America First. Just because there is a lot of shit happening, doesn’t make this any less fucked.

In Australia, we even just had Pauline Hanson say this is a bad idea.
For context, she is a white non-Muslim politician who once wore a burqa into parliament to make a point. Even she is against Trump on this one.
I mean, a huge number of his own supporters are questioning this. I wouldn’t call this a viable strategy.
"Europe’s leading AI companies and research institutions combine their forces and expertise to develop next-generation open-source language models in an unprecedented collaboration to advance European AI capabilities, the OpenEuroLLM project.
A consortium of 20 leading European research institutions, companies and EuroHPC centres coordinated by Jan Hajič (Charles University, Czechia) and co-led by Peter Sarlin (AMD Silo AI, Finland) will build a family of performant, multilingual, large language foundation models for commercial, industrial and public services. The transparent and compliant open-source models will democratize access to high-quality AI technologies and strengthen the ability of European companies to compete on a global market and public organizations to produce impactful public services.
The OpenEuroLLM project is aligned with the imperative to improve Europe’s competitiveness and digital sovereignty. The project is a prime example of the type of technology infrastructure needed to lower thresholds for European AI product development and refinement, demonstrating the strength of transparency, openness and community involvement, values largely recognized across the European tech ecosystem.
The models will be developed within Europe’s robust regulatory framework, ensuring alignment with European values while maintaining technological excellence. Cooperating with open-source and open science communities like LAION, open-sci and OpenML, and additional experts in the field assembled in the project’s Open Strategic Partnership Board, OpenEuroLLM will ensure that the models, software, data and evaluation will be fully open and can be fine-tuned and instruction-tuned for specific industry and public sector needs. These performant multilingual models preserve both linguistic and cultural diversity, enabling European companies to develop high-quality products and services in the era of AI.
The project, which has been awarded the STEP (Strategic Technologies for Europe Platform) seal, leverages support from previous European projects and the experience of the partners and their results, including large repositories of high-quality data and pilot LLMs developed previously. The consortium commences its work on February 1st, 2025, with funding from the European Commission under the Digital Europe Programme."

191·4 days agoProf Richard Wolff has a great analysis of things: https://youtu.be/9u4A0D_Wc9c
Is that website legit? I’ve only ever seen https://www.deepseek.com/
And I would personally recommend downloading from HuggingFace or Ollama
Even though emotionally, I wanted Mexico and Canada to keep their tariffs to not take Trump’s crap. I have a feeling history will look back on Sheinbaum as incredibly tactful, especially giving Mexico buffer to diversify their reliances.
It’s only a proposed bill (thankfully), but definitely one to keep an eye on.

Good points. I do believe Bitwarden is open-source though, so it can probably be forked off into a version that doesn’t host data in the US.
7·4 days agoI’ve already made this a separate post, but I do think it is very relevant to this. You can already start finding alternatives to US-centralized software and digital services, and these two sites are a great start:
13·5 days agoI mean, even many US TikTok users jumped straight onto Red Note. I’m not saying I trust China, but living in a US-allied country, I most definitely don’t trust the US right now.
As someone who is outside the US, the best I can do is share important information with people inside the US.
I would be very surprised if any of our US-Allied governments call out Trump. I would be overjoyed, but surprised.
