AI toys for young children need tighter rules, researchers warn

In first study of its kind, Cambridge researchers found AI toys could misread some children's emotions.

Try it...

An Egyptian programmer created a page dedicated to every Palestinian soul killed by the occupation during the war of extermination in #Gaza.. So far, he has registered 72,000 names.

Each point of light on the screen represents the name of a martyr, and when it is clicked, the name of the person it belongs to appears.

The link is in the first reblog :

I Am Not a Number

A memorial for the 60,199 Palestinian victims of the Israeli genocide in Gaza. Each dot is a name. Each name was a life.

embarrassing myself

[dare-to-dm]

It is so good to have hobbies like this.

I'm into foraging, especially mushroom hunting. But I am SO BAD at it you guys. Like, I do my due diligence in terms of research and safety, but I'm bad at actually finding the things and also bad at remembering things I need to know to identify plants/fungi confidently. I haven't actually harvested a mushroom in over 2 years now.

HOWEVER. A failed mushroom hunt is still a nice walk in the woods. I don't need to be good at it to have a good time. And while I hope I get better at it, I don't feel pressured or rushed to do so. It's just nice.

This is the exact opposite of what the United States does.

Kash has the impulse control of a sad podcaster in way over his head, trying to please a rapist white supremacist boss.

Kash would have been fired for posting evidence, but his real job is protecting Trump and endless MAGA corruption.

hi, this is your gentle reminder and PSA: there are ELECTIONS happening in November 4th. PLEASE GO VOTE. Trump is the most unpopular he has ever been, but does that mean your average independent, or republican will vote for a dem this time around-likely no- they probably will just skip the process entirely if they don’t have a candidate they feel strongly about. this is why i’m asking YOU SPECIFICALLY to make sure to go vote. and i don’t wanna hear any doomerism shit about how voting is a waste of time bc of whatever, guys voting is the last of anything we have it is clear most of these people who represent us do not actually care, HOWEVER trump currently has the house, senate and courts and making it even slightly harder to do anything or having a large enough group to speak out against what he’s doing will help hundreds of thousands of people in the US. now more than ever is it important to make sure that they know that we do not stand for this

[ottermatopoeia]

I honestly feel like the proliferation of LED headlights was the canary in the coalmine for the general attitude we see in the political climate these days and i'm not even remotely kidding

[ottermatopoeia]

Very much in line with the attitude of "this choice will marginally improve the way I move through the world and make everyone else's experience SIGNIFICANTLY worse, but I don't really care, based simply on the fact that I am allowed to do it and there's nothing they can or will do to stop me" ya feel me?

[thetetra]

I used to live in an apartment complex and this guy had those super bright headlights, a custom job that was WAY brighter than the norm. He would use his brights in the apartment complex and when his headlights were on your window you could read fine print with the curtains closed.

We yelled at him and told him to at least turn off his brights and he told us to go fuck ourselves. So one night after he came rolling back in at 2 or 3 in the morning someone smashed his headlights in with a hammer and sprayed black spray paint inside the holes. The reverse lights too as they were also obnoxiously bright.

Police came by the next day after he woke up and screamed blood and vengeance for an hour. I think we were all questioned and not 1 person knew anything.

Property management had to admit that the fake security cameras were actually fake.

Guy got his system fixed exactly the same and went around loudly bragging about it. Guy went back out to set up his camera to watch the car and went to bed. The camera was smashed from behind spray painted and again the headlights and reverse lights, with the added bonus of a side view mirror smashed and spray painted.

This time the only person who said anything to the cops was a guy who could confirm it wasn't at 5 am because he went out with a gas can and a box of matches but the job had already been done. And funnily enough saying "well I was going to do it but someone beat me to it" isn't actually illegal.

He put in much more sensible headlights and didn't turn his brights on in the parking lot anymore.

How CAPTCHAs are Powering the Future’s Cars… and Drones

Have you ever stopped to wonder why, when attempting to enter a website, you are suddenly asked to prove your own humanity? And furthermore,

This is horrifyingly true.

If you get a captcha asking you to identify the tents or the RV's, request a new captcha. Stop snitching now includes making sure you're logging in online ethically I guess?
