Which excludes FOSS maintainers. Who should be well funded to protect our tech stacks from neglect.

Whatever you are scared of.

I'm scared of this more

Clear case of subsequent searches based on the fruit of the poisoned tree. The only evidence is that backpack.

The forum is clearly NY law would apply, but the judge is trying hard to ignore the initial clearly illegal search. And give the officers every chance to continue doing whatever they'd like to do as long as it seems structured/organized.

The three or eight officers. Both situations, a reasonable person, would assume they are not free to leave. Those three officers would love to see you try!

These officers also broke down a detained suspect by never stop talking at him. And we asking investigative questions and not having a casual unrelated conversation. The rando dude at a McDonalds was being tossed around by the equivalent of a rape gang. There was clear intimidation to elicit continuous conversation after the rando dude said he'd like to remain silent and was not given any chance to do so.

But the biggest question i have is what is the purpose of the Pennsylvania judge approving the search warrant after it's clear as day an illegal search has occurred and the warrant is based on that evidence and only that evidence?!

The political activists pretending to be judges cannot save this case. Any reasonable jury would toss it based on the initial illegal search. At what point were they ever going to be serious about obtaining a search warrant? Really not convinced that is really any concern that Pennsylvania cares about.

The chain of custody is also all over the place. Any jury, in this era, will be hyper aware of chain of custody issues after all the voting machine issues during the last presidential election.

This case is doomed. All they had to do is kick everyone out of that McDonalds, including themselves, and leave the backpack untouched in the McDonalds but in their line of sight. And get that warrant. Especially if they want to be taken seriously that their excuse. There is always an excuse. But their actions and their excuse proves they are a gang, not a law enforcement agency.

Even with body cameras they still manage to mess this situation up .... badly.

Impressive.

mastodon is like an oasis in a sea of noise.

Concentrate on the signal, not the noise.

Build relationships with people you care about.

The problem with mastodon might turn out to be having a heart lacking in empathy. Need to be able to care enough to want to be associated with someone you admire.

We live amongst rock stars. How can anyone completely miss that?! The problem is neither the platform nor the rock stars.

Don't need a sea of people. Need 10 or 5 or 3. As long as they are rock stars. I count my blessings daily.

It's clearly how approach to using mastodon. Small tweak to your mindset and you can get alot out of the platform.

Dial up a super hero and tell them they are awesome.

Go to pypi

Find packages you like and their maintainers.

Hook up with them and tell them they are awesome, but found a few things that doesn't make sense in the docs. Whatever the approach. You are in!

Do it now.

It'll take all of 5 mins.

Should be promoting this, not asking the e-commerce site to take it down.

Adds credence to Luigi being an actor. The real guy got away.

If Luigi acting career falters, nice to know has other options after all that publicity.

Law/justice is also dead, especially as folks stop believing in any piece of state evidence.

Two seconds later it could be you or me who are picked up and demonized for random stuff.

Truthfully this is my image state power. They make shiat up 100% of the time. So it's not a question of is it true or not. It's a question of how they are lying. Like a puzzle to be solved or exposed for the entertainment, but even that eventually grows old. Oh a cop MSM or a politician corpo said it ... pfft!

Citizens don't believe anything out of the State or Media. Obviously not a healthy situation when everyone is considered an actor.

Write a post that leads back to a tiresome obvious discussion about a particular coding language without mentioning that coding language

now rinse wash and repeat until our eyes have no blood left to bleed

Step 1: all software has to be open source

Step 2: governments, required by law, to fund FOSS projects in their tech stacks. Helped by organizations which trace project funding and lobbying to promote FOSS security by providing funding; a huge incentive to not insert malware

Step 3: coders are afforded dignity (UBI); given funds geared towards affording a maintenance team. Regardless of country of origin. Vital infrastructure is vital infrastructure. Talent is talent.

I support this move to Step 1

Where is the list of pauper gov'ts which force talent to get a job rather than be a talent and then maintain their projects with dignity!

Those jobs are mostly nonsense. Geared towards wasting our time building:

• yet another stupid web site

• yet another stupid smartphone app

• yet another stupid cloud base server instance

is that a Sun Tzu quote?

an evil man will burn down the empire to rule over the ashes

or something like that

Classic case of coop the resistance by introducing completely different talking points.

FOSS is not left or right, it's FOSS. Those trying to change it to something else is trying to coop it.

There is no controversy. The blue vs red lens does not make sense in this context.

What you are describing is not AI. It's text2speech and speech recognition which has been around for 30 years. Same with extracting text from an image.

Look into kaldi and openfst which have been around for ages.

The issue is with rising energy and water costs to train models. Which is bad enough but what corps are really after is to create autonomous kill bots. Should we all live in tents starving cuz a few want to have killbot swarms to harass everyone with?

Just cuz some have been sufficiently bribed to say it's a good idea doesn't mean society should allow misallocation of finite scarce and vital resources

AGPLv3 is not anti-business or anti-money. It's saying if you want to use the code in a closed source project you need to pay the copyright holder

The copyright holder is the original author, not a maintainer or someone who forked a project and renamed it.

That's why the #1 thing mentioned in copyleft licenses is you can't alter the copyright notice and declare yourself the original author

AGPLv3 is a good license to choose. All the other licenses are naive and do not combat closed source projects and the slave worker that keeps our projects unfunded

Wait! So the author bows his head, says hey great guys u win. Watch i complied.

Leans over to the stranger sitting next to him and says, hold my beer.

In the same heartbeat, creates another git acnt, exact same commit history. And carries on. Some other author, totally not the same guy but oddly the same pgp public key announces they've taken over and here are the new urls.

i call that mission accomplished

this comment thread is like fight Money Mcbags and go bankrupt for our entertainment and for the LOLs and feelz good?

Or we can just post the new urls and pretend it's a new maintainer, with the handle lawyerdisappointed

pirate: My dreams concern ccy off ramps. Remote work is our future.

At all costs, never ever answer any kyc/aml questions:

• What's your name?
• How old are you?
• What country are you from?
• Where do you live?
• Can i have your phone number?

The truth is vastly overrated concept.

openssl rand -hex 20 <-- memorize this. Adjusting integer affects output length. Try it now. Now try is 20 times in a row. This is your name and password generator. My name is a71fe7b7ec46e0ae0a191004509af262cb2bbe99

Outing your identity has HUGE financial and legal repercussions. Not outting your own identity saves on: stress, time, filling out forms, and you can keep your income and house (a motel is insurance). There will be fees to be paid to ccy off ramps, but they are nothing in comparison.

If anyone insists, insist they give you their credit card. Then keep it. This is an important life lesson. Anyone can be de-systemed. And as soon as you internalize that ... the better. If you are not de-systemed, consider yourself de-systemed. Plan accordingly. I know folks who are de-systemed.

Make a telegram group for onboarding. Create invite links as needed. Then no need to exchange phone numbers. I'm ok with Russia viewing my communications. In fact, that's hilarious. Could use e2e encryption. Boris is busy anyway.

If you talk about coding always, you'll become immune to censorship. Normies brains cannot withstand such punishment. They'll find someone else to censor.

So they are gaslighting to cause you to have doubts. So they are using a psyche which is a symptom of them having unrestricted access to your time and ears

I hope this is sarcasm

Depends if the felonies make them appear weak.

In that case, the FIBs will rush right over with the manifesto. Must be a breeze now with AI.

That as well as cop dramas where they go out and solve crimes while only murdering the bad guys according to them.

But the bad guy definition is grey. The cuckoided boyfriend of the train wreck female cop under the other train wreck female cop who somehow is supposed to be in charge.

The crime the suspects committed is not getting full time contracts

The other suggestions aren't suggestions at all. They are obsoleted by searx.space

DDG ... obsolete

startpage.com ... obsolete

Browsers have default search engines. Curse everytime, DDG is accidentally queried.

DDG is a curse word!

Any centralized site, with privacy claims, is treated as lying thru their teeth. Front run future news.

Cue reality as R&D vs actually getting products to market are two HUGELY different things

All 99.99999% of science PR, will never be heard from again.

On Mastodon, follow and interact with people you admire, not content.

Go to pypi look for packages you admire, find their maintainers, and get chatting with them. Coders make themselves available on mastodon. Not lemmy. Not twitter. Email is passe.

Do a survey. Look up 20 random packages you admire on pypi. What contact info do they provide? These packages must be actively maintained. Otherwise understand if dinosaurs in the past communicated thru mostly hand gestures and grunting.

Published coders are the richest resource of talent in the history of mankind.

Lemmy ... asking questions?! Is that it?

There is more to interacting and collaboration than hit and run knowledge sharing.
