damn, i couldn't find an affordable router that wasn't super expensive. the pc retailers by me don't have them, but weird little import shops do? interesting. using your own access point instead of an isp all in one is pretty life changing.

I have done this in the past and its really rewarding. I went with an off the shelf mini PC and ran OPNsense in Proxmox but you can basically do this with any old PC, and really lightweight hardware or a compatible router if you run OpenWRT. aftermath.site/opnsense-pro...

Mass Effect was my ultimate white whale, my all-time dream project. For the last couple years I'd been in discussion w/ BioWare & EA to take on the project & as part of that I wrote close to 20 minutes of music to explore where the franchise can go next, may as well share it!

put every tech CEO on trial. fuck these absolute garbage people. the audacity of these shitheads

New leaked audio: Flock’s CEO tells a private conference of police chiefs he believes the opposition to his company isn’t real, full of paid protesters/bots. Says company is at “the bottom” but is waiting out criticism www.404media.co/in-leaked-au...

I feel like every 5 minutes Google rolls out a new ‘service’ that somehow collects data that you need to turn off. INTERESTING

If you want to ensure ads never use your personal data in this way, you’ll need to make sure Personal Intelligence is turned off: arstechnica.visitlink.me/0kCaFp

it's a good time for companies that keep sensitive information to get rid of it. my grocery store chain had a breach that lost a bunch of data on customers. they don't need all that customer info. not that the chain will be held accountable anyway

The autonomous and rapid prodding that agents are able to do means we're basically cooked. They don't need Claude, OpenAI, or anybody to do it, either. They can just spin up their own hardware and download an open source agent, or train their own. If they're willing to spend on power they can do it.

dangerous hyperbole but ok

Microsoft says its AI tool is better than doctors at diagnosing conditions. The company claims to have developed an AI-powered tool it says can diagnose conditions up to four times more accurately than human doctors www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

the whole conservative movement is 'i could do it better' and then they find out that it wasn't so simple. they're just too dumb to know better

Elections Alberts just confiirmed that they don't know if all of their polls are closed so that's why we don't have results. Given our top resource, it's wild how poorly an oiled machine we are.

Trump on El-Sayed: "His name is actually Abduladadalalalala. It's Adulbabababababa Mohammed Al-Sayed. So his middle name is Mohammed. So I was right. He's a jihadist."

even the dumbest men oppose him now

Headquarters@headquartersnews.bsky.social

Joe Rogan: What Trump stood for, some of it turned out to not be real. Like 'no wars.' We're at a war with Iran, so that wasn't real. It's nuts to just give someone a $50,000 ICE signing bonus, you train them for seven weeks, and you have a militarized force running through the fucking city streets

maybe they should administer a psych test

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump: "It's called a coganative [sic] test. It's a very standard test, but very tough. There are few people in this audience that can -- once you get past the first question. They show you a lion, a bear, a giraffe, and a snake and they say, 'Which one is the lion?' Biden was unable to answer that"

feckless, impotent politicians allow this nonsense to continue. but every personal that enabled this on trial when sanity returns if ever

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

President Trump blamed Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky for stoking his country’s conflict with Russia and said that he should be replaced. He added that he was unhappy about Ukraine’s decision to strike Russian refineries.

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

BAIER: The president says 'SI.' Are you into SI or AI? BEZOS: I do like SI, because 'artificial' is not a very flattering thing. Like, nobody wants an artificial sweetener, artificial flavoring.

just a reminder, they aren't hunting for noncitizen voters. they're trying to intimidate and fix an election

Democracy Docket@democracydocket.com

NEW: ICE flagged Zumiez, a popular skate store found in shopping malls, "for further investigation" in Pennsylvania because it supported voter outreach efforts. The streetwear brand was among hundreds of groups probed by ICE this year as part of Trump's ongoing hunt for noncitizen voters.
