Boxer - by Bill Mayer
  • One of the noblest and saddest characters in one of the most cruel stories ever written.

  • Yeah, I should have taken a cross-sectional cut to show what was inside. Next time....

  • Ebooks library (cross platform)
  • I don't know if this will fully meet your requirements, but my combination, which I'm happy with, is Moon Reader Pro on my Android devices and Ubooquity on my server.

    Moon Reader has a Sync to WebDAV option but I haven't needed to use it. If you're not inclined to pay for an ebook reader software, there is also Librera which is free.

    What 90's movie or media trope would be great as a stranger things style show?
  • Any of the 90s horror anthology shows. Goosebumps, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Friday the 13th: The Series heck even X-Files and Buffy. I don't think we've had a decent horror anthology show in recent years. Black Mirror is less horror than just plain meanness sometimes.

  • How often do you have conversations with an LLM AI (ChatGPT, Gemini, etc?)

  • It would help if we knew even just a smidgin of what these titles are.

    Which RSS aggregator do you use? I cannot seem to find one that works for me.
  • For several years I was using TTRSS, but this year I moved to a Miniflux instance that I host at home. I couple it with an instance of Wallabag for saving articles for later reading. I like the experience of the Miniflux PWA app better than TTRSS.

  • Huawei's woes really were just a flesh wound – profits just soared 564 percent
  • Is it east vs west, or man against man?

    Can any nation stand alone?

  • Bruce Perens Emits Draft Post-Open Zero Cost License
  • The key idea from the article is --

    ...Companies making more than $5 million annually by using Post-Open software in a paid-for product would be required to pay 1 percent of their revenue back to this administrative organization, which would distribute the funds to the maintainers of the participating open source project(s). That would cover all Post-Open software used by the organization.

  • Is there a "personality test" you've done you found helpful?
  • I enjoy the D&D alignment chart.

  • Is anyone reading the new Ultimate Spiderman (2024)? Peter is older and have kids, the story seems cool and interesting
  • Too slow and talky, exacerbated by stiff and clunky dialogue. Your enjoyment is premised on prior knowledge of mainstream Marvel superhero history, and the series wants you to admire how clever it is by flattering you how clever you are to know all that secret lore.

  • World War Z (the book, not the movie) had many memorable moments.

    Unearthing APT44: Russia’s Notorious Cyber Sabotage Unit Sandworm
  • My point being that they deem this serious enough to release publicly themselves instead of an internal memory, and that this is about an active threat actor rather than a mere vulnerability.

    APT44 is a threat actor that is actively engaged in the full spectrum of espionage, attack, and influence operations.

    Unearthing APT44: Russia’s Notorious Cyber Sabotage Unit Sandworm | Google Cloud Blog

    What's worrying about this report is that it's coming from Google itself.

    With Russia's full-scale invasion in its third year, Sandworm (aka FROZENBARENTS) remains a formidable threat to Ukraine. The group’s operations in support of Moscow’s war aims have proven tactically and operationally adaptable...

    ...Mandiant continues to see operations from the group that are global in scope in key political, military, and economic hotspots for Russia. Additionally, with a record number of people participating in national elections in 2024, Sandworm’s history of attempting to interfere in democratic processes further elevates the severity of the threat the group may pose in the near-term.

    www.technologyreview.com Generative AI can turn your most precious memories into photos that never existed

    The Synthetic Memories project is helping families around the world reclaim a past that was never caught on camera.

    Generative AI can turn your most precious memories into photos that never existed

    Dozens of people have now had their memories turned into images in this way via Synthetic Memories, a project run by Domestic Data Streamers. The studio uses generative image models, such as OpenAI’s DALL-E, to bring people’s memories to life. Since 2022, the studio, which has received funding from the UN and Google, has been working with immigrant and refugee communities around the world to create images of scenes that have never been photographed, or to re-create photos that were lost when families left their previous homes.
