That's awesome. Now #agolfshitler thinks 'diplomacy = A Truth Social Post".
What a moron.

What a moron.
When I hear somebody call themselves a "Social Media Influencer" am I the only one that wants to punch that person in the face?
@CrabbyIT
Let the great #enshittification continue!!

I don't understand this.
Some guy 'vibe codes' moltbook and releases it to the world. If there are any issues he vibe codes fixes.
Now all the AI shills are saying how AI can write a companies entire CRM product from scratch and do the same with any software product.
So shouldn't #meta simply be asking their AI to vibe code their own moltbook2 instead of having to buy this one?
Don't tell me that the grifters are misrepresenting the capabilities of AI!!!
New, by me: How AI Assistants are Moving the Security Goalposts
AI-based assistants or “agents” — autonomous programs that have access to the user’s computer, files, online services and can automate virtually any task — are growing in popularity with developers and IT workers. But as so many eyebrow-raising headlines over the past few weeks have shown, these powerful and assertive new tools are rapidly shifting the security priorities for organizations, while blurring the lines between data and code, trusted co-worker and insider threat, ninja hacker and novice code jockey.

First thing I'd do is ask the AI to review and update my resume.

Marcy got two other things wrong.
First, Trump doesn't want to read any reports. He may be incapable of reading at this point or doesn't care. He simply is told what he wants to hear by the sycophants around him.
And he isn't lying because he fucked up. He's so senile and delusional that he honestly has no idea what is going on anymore. (And it's in his nature to lie).
Okay. Let me get this straight about these god awful #ageverification laws being written by people who obviously have zero technical knowledge and didn't ask any experts for their opinions. All to "protect the children". Forgetting about the question of who is ever going to enforce this law, privacy concerns, technical issues, etc.
The way I understand it (at least in the case of California) is that when I install an OS I will have to enter my birth date and lets say I'm over 18. (Who installs an OS these days besides people like me being a #Linux geek?) Get the computer running and I connect to a site that requires age verification. Some daemon on my computer is going to get a request from the site and it will say "Yeppers. This person is over 18" and let me in.
There's no real verification of my age just that my computer says this. I didn't have to provide ID, etc.
This means we've literally got nothing better than the existing clicking on a box that says I'm over 18. Am I wrong?
Now lets say my child or nephew goes on the computer and uses it. It's still going to say that the user is over 18, right? If I set up another user account then do I have to say their birth date too?
How difficult is it going to be for somebody to vibe code a daemon that simply feeds this bullshit to the website every time a user connects? Make a freaking browser plugin?
And the website will be fined if an underage person accesses their site? How the f*ck does that make any sense?
This all seems so stupid and pointless. I know the next step is going to be some sort of ID check. That brings in a whole other world of privacy and security concerns.
@EINS_Institute
That's okay. There won't be mid terms for the MAGA goons to worry about.
ALERT: 🇨🇦’s political parties are DAYS away from using Bill C-4 to PERMANENTLY exempt themselves from basic privacy law.
Now is the time to force the House to accept a key compromise proposed by the Senate: a 3 year sunset period, during which they must get privacy right.
Tell your MP: respect voter privacy, sunset Bill C-4! https://www.openmedia.org/C4Sunset-mtd
@hittitezombie
One Nazi at a time.
You also to remember that nobody likes Vance. Not even with the MAGA morons circle. The only reason he's in the WH is because Peter Thiel bought him his way in.
Hopefully when #agolfshitler does die (a hopefully painful and miserable death) the civil war within the fascist movement will cause it to fall apart.
We can dream can't we?

Watch this video about how long one physical therapist thinks that rotting orange bag of crap has to live. Hope he's right and this guy croaks soon.

And probably 90% of electronics we use every day are manufactured in China. That's reality.

I'll just leave this here.
The province of BC has finally decided to stop pushing stupid clock changes twice a year. Hallelujah!
Trying to figure out what this is going to mean for our computers, phones and other devices.

First off - Jack Dorsey is King of the Douchebags. Secondly, nobody is being laid off because of AI. That's just the BS excuse horrible CEOs give to boost stock prices and make themselves look innovative.
It's all a grift and part of the #roteconomy and ongoing #enshittification of the tech industry.
@sternecker
Okay. I like what you're saying and understand the point of view.
First off this whole age verification push wrapped in the "Think of the Children" flag is utter bullshit. Anybody with more than 2 brain cells knocking together know this is simply a way to push mass surveillance and monitoring and to limit people's access to important information. There's no way to enforce it, it has too many privacy concerns, trust issues, not technically feasible, not well thought out, pushed by people who think the internet is made of 'tubes', etc etc. We could go on and on. But of course the big tech companies love it as it will be a way to lock people into their tools and operating systems along with their identity verification silos.
Now to say the State should be burdened with the cost to create and manage these changes in open source has a few issues. (And it would be great if governments would invest in Open Source but that's a different discussion). This would be like saying they needed to pay the cost to put seatbelts in cars for small car manufacturers. The big car companies will complain that its putting the smaller niche car manufacturers at an advantage. That the big guys should get some sort of rebates for already putting seatbelts in cars. That sort of argument.
Then there's the whole challenge of so many distros and open source packages. Is the government going to develop tools for every distro? What about BSDs? Only some? Who decides? Are they going to make some sort of 'blob' to work on all OSs? Embed it at the hardware level? You know that will be used by Microslop etc to lock out alternatives.
Not sure if I made any sense but these 'We are doing this for your safety' arguments while taking away freedoms pisses me off royally.
@arktronic
I hadn't heard of beets. Took a look at the site and may have to give this a go too. Can't hurt to have another tool in the arsenal.
Thanks.

I've been using Musicbrainz Picard with I'd say 95% success to clean up all my music files (~32000 files and about 1.3TB).
