Dankjewel voor het artikel. En ongelofelijk dat dit soort ranzige truukjes gewoon blijken te werken en Nederland alleen maar verder naar rechts opschuift.

He won't have a nice time, so he's got that to look forward to, which is nice.

This is one of many reports that came out of climate science. The results in the reports vary, because the models they use are different, but they all come to the same conclusion ultimately. Humanity is stupid that we won't change our ways unless directly affected. 🥺

AI models know when they're being tested - and change their behavior, research shows OpenAI and Apollo Research tried to stop models from lying - and discovered something else altogether.

This article from last year aligns with this story, though. And this was tested by a UK-based nonprofit, Apollo Research. So I don't think they're lying. Exaggerating, maybe.

Cell consciousness: a dissenting opinion: The cellular basis of consciousness theory lacks empirical evidence for its claims that all cells have consciousness The proponents of CBC claim that all living organisms down to prokaryotes have consciousness. However, their arguments lack empirical evidence or are refuted by established facts. Subject terms: History & Philosophy of Science, Neuroscience, Plant ...

Wij lagen er vorige zomer een paar dagen met onze boot en het viel ons op dat er elke avond flink werd gepatrouilleerd door boa's en politie, niet zonder reden. Met deze plannen zullen ze het daar vast nog veel drukker gaan krijgen.

Ha! In België noemen ze het serieus "de anale driehoek": Reeth, Kontich en Aartselaar.

Vous avez raison, la loi ne s'applique qu'à la France métropolitaine et non à Mayotte (entre autres). Espérons que ce problème sera bientôt résolu. C'est pourquoi j'ai parlé d'un « pas dans la bonne direction » dans ma réponse. Les États-Unis, en revanche, prennent rapidement la mauvaise direction.

Ze hebben zelfs een kleuter gebruikt in een poging om het gezin hun huis uit te lokken. Wat een walgelijk land is de VS geworden.

Cela s'explique probablement par les progrès récents de la France, qui a adopté en 2024 une loi interdisant la détention des familles avec enfants mineurs. Espérons qu'elle poursuivra sur cette voie. Les États-Unis, en revanche, opèrent un revirement complet. (Google Translate helped me)

And, entirely predictable, this is now spilling over into gaming; there's currently much ado about Steam (large gaming platform), and payment providers banning certain games. Pr0n is and always will be the canary in the coalmine when it comes to free speech.

There's him, and then there's Michael Berryman, actor from the 80ies movie Weird Science, and Peter Garrett, the singer of Midnight Oil. Like brothers born on different continents.
