Monarch title sequence.

Following up on my obsession with title sequences... As I've said before, I find the decisions about what stories they choose to tell, and under such constraints, fascinating. So every time a new season of a show starts, I pick them apart to see what subtle changes they made.

Monarch, Legacy of Monsters has a fantastic title sequence. Since the show takes place in two timelines, they split the titles between the past on the left and the...

So, heading into the weekend, it seems likely we’re in for an energy and fertiliser crisis on top of one of the largest financial bubble in history, one that’s already showing signs of instability, in a world economy wracked by inflation, fascism, and increasingly dysfunctional software?

Fun times!

@soatok while its always bad when this sort of thing happens, as I'm always reminded, every single company offering any sort of service in this world WILL either have to hand over whatever info they have (maybe very very little) to law enforcement OR shut down.

Those are the two options. If a sufficiently legal request comes in, they HAVE to comply or cease to exist.

Mullvad has a solid approach to this in that you only have an account number and simply add credit to that account AND accept crypto or cash (and apparently delete any card payment details after a short amount of time) but even that's not perfect.

@protonprivacy was extra sleazy by invoking the shooting at a cop incident to justify handing over the data, as if the person in question was a suspect (they weren't).

In fact, this story of a cop being shot at was used to justify cops murdering a protester Manuel Paez Terán who was found dead with multiple gun shot wounds in his back, implying he was attempting to fee when murdered.

Proton out here acting like a cop. This is cop behavior. I don't do business with cops. Fuck Proton.

Ah yes, of course. Right after I finish following my financial advisor's strategy of "just be rich".

Amazing how many complex life problems can be solved with absolutely no actionable steps.

@protonprivacy how can Proton claim to be held to Swiss-only law, when the Swiss government isn't even held to Swiss-only law?

The FBI can, apparently, compel Proton to hand over any data they demand about anyone regardless if a crime has been committed.

These two headlines are five days apart, today Hegseth is ducking questions about who is responsible for the bombing of a school and the deaths of 180 children and their teachers, and I'd like to wish everyone at Anthropic a very happy complicity in war crimes.

I'm very familiar with how cops and FBI have gone after Stop Cop City protesters. It's a level of fascism that most of the country has yet to experience.

@protonprivacy effectively handing over credit card data of someone who has not committed a crime, makes them no different than any American tech company.

If you're familiar with Stop Cop City, then you know Proton put someone's life at risk.

@soatok
The story also reminds me of one more thing that, pardon my language, "privacy freaks" are ignoring en-masse.
NO ENTITY, not a single one, no matter what they claim, will go against law enforcement, when it knocks on their door, unless they have some super powerful legal leverage (at which point LEA won't go in there in the first place unless you're in a place with "Gestapo on crack" LEAs at which point nothing saves you from "chains and gallows") or they're "untouchable" (which would more likely be a red flag because how come they're untouchable).
But when LEA comes in with "Comply or Die", you only have these options, comply or die.

Afroman heads to court this month after deputies sued him for turning their unfounded raid on his home into viral music videos that exposed their faces and actions when he used his security camera footage of the raid.

The trial begins March 16 in Adams County, #Ohio, where the legal battle between the rapper and law enforcement has become a test case for free speech rights in the digital age.

Afroman’s argument is straightforward: he documented what happened to him and turned his story into art. #Law #FreeSpeech #Music

@fromjason I use a little script that creates a new YYYY-MM-DD.md file each day, and will append the current time to the file when I open it.

My editor (#Helix) can easily search/page through previous days, so I don't feel the need to keep everything in one file.

If I have a topic that I know I'll collect notes on over a long time span I'll just create a file for that topic.

idk, it’s just baffling to me that a professional software developer who’s been maintaining a project for over a decade can so fundamentally misunderstand what LLMs do
