Thank goodness I have an alternative Mastodon account. Hey @trendless@bird.makeup @trendless@zeroes.ca Why do you love the Earth fresh water destroying, technofascist torment nexus bot so much?! "Be polite to the nice people endorsing that they should cognitively offload to the technofascist slop bot!" When Trendless no longer has fresh water to drink, they'll sleep well knowing they punished the people who were rude to the fresh water destroyers. #NoAI

This is a warning about Meta and Threads.

Please boost this here and outside of Mastodon so that pregnant people in the United States are informed that using Meta/Threads is dangerous.

I'm unlikely to get pregnant but I have ZERO presence on Meta/Facebook/Instagram/Threads as a matter of principle.

Problem solved! Thank you for your help, everyone! -- Everyone, learning Chown saved me! Problem over. Now I have backed up my crucial files, I will reinstall Kubuntu on my internal disk. I have learned: Chown! Backup my documents to an external USB thumb drive. 😖 And... Be very careful playing around with NVIDIA drivers in Linux! But... An automatic update broke Vulkan, made me unable to play my Steam games! Hopefully fresh install, default up to date NVIDIA driver based on my graphics card model, will mean I can eventually enjoy Steam for Linux again.

One day, the Gen AI bubble will burst and tech companies will hire highly experienced human beings with impressive bodies of work to do research and writing about cybersecurity. (We will probably need to deal with all the tech debt and vulns from slop code.)

Until then, I need to pay my rent.

Please share. ❤️ #fediHire #Fedihired #infosec

This campaign is for Technofascism Survival Guide, the book that I'm publishing in a couple of weeks or so.

It's timely because of shit like this: Palantir, OpenAI, and the entire "AI industry" collaborating with the US government for technofascism.

My book is full of advice for good, ordinary people. There are lawful ways that you can protect yourself.

I know it looks like my campaign raised a lot, but that's a cumulative total since January.

I need your late pledges to pay my rent.
My Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kimcrawley/technofascism-survival-guide/

Share this far and wide.

Gen AI:

- Gen AI datacenters demand way more power than "old fashioned" datacenters.

- Gen AI datacenters drain the Earth of its limited potable water.

- Gen AI poisons the air of poor neighborhoods (see Elon Musk's xAI in Memphis for an example)

- The climate is getting worse and worse each year, Gen AI is accelerating climate destruction. (I have MIT citations.)

- The vast majority of Gen AI output is bullshit because it simply repeats word patterns, picture patterns, does not understand meaning, isn't "intelligent."

- People who hate Gen AI: Greta Thunburg, Naomi Klein, good people everywhere.

- People who love Gen AI: Elon Musk, Sam Altman, every billionaire who wants to steal what little we have left.

The Sick Times:

Absolutely disgusting that The Sick Times promotes pro-Gen AI shit.

On top of that, people with Long Covid deserve factual help, not a planet destroying bullshitting machine.

Seriously, fuck The Sick Times for this.

Please follow my lead: Unsubscribe and stop donating!

Replying to
@mcourcel @kimcrawley It can be used without ever connecting it to a PC. And it can also be USB comnected to Linux, Mac, and Windows PCs. I don't think there is a Linux kernel actually on the device's onboard firmware. My educated guess is it's just custom machine code/assembly language on the actual device itself.

@aud@fire.asta.lgbt There is definitely a TPM in my ASUS ROG G15 Strix laptop, 2021 model. Because it briefly ran Windows 11 before I got rid of that malware!
