I Vejle må kolonihusejere tage drastiske midler i brug for at få lovliggjort deres kolonihavehuse. I Ikast har en rigmand overtrådt naturbeskyttelsesloven som efterfølgende bliver dispenseret for. Lighed for loven? #dkpol #dkmedier www.dr.dk/nyheder/indl...

Så! Huset er skåret midtover, og nu er det lovligt

Mens en gruppe af beboere i Vejles kolonihaver fører retssag mod kommunen, har andre valgt af lovliggøre deres huse.

Post 9/11 thread for people to post the wildest shit they remember from 01 to 06 I'll start: People thought Osama had an entire mountain hollowed out that he was using as his base and that's why AQ was hard to find and that somehow a group of like 30 dudes arranged this.

I’m not saying we should shed a tear for the financial impositions faced by multimillionaires. It’s just an illustrative point that the billionaires have *so much* money. They have so much more wealth than you imagined. This visualization has gotten much worse since 2012: youtu.be/QPKKQnijnsM?...

This is the necessary end point of both the US sanctioning the ICC and the ridiculous willingness of US tech companies to collaborate with the worst impulses of the US government. I am so enjoying watching the fully EU stack emerge. Digital sovereignty will be a beautiful future.

Russia basically has two futures. Accept that they are a middle-ranking nation and work in concord with a Europe that will respect them as equals, or don't do that and continue to engage with China who will pay lip-service to their Imperial affections whilst really treating them as their suzerain.

The Lake Ontario/Lake America thing is a profoundly stupid version of it, but in millions of other subtler ways, we are force fed American values and American ideas about the world, because American companies like Google control the internet.

I do not understand why Palestinians in Gaza being enslaved to replace bomb sniffing dogs has not been a bigger part of the public understanding of the conflict. This has been very well covered in the western press!

Israeli use of human shields in Gaza was systematic, soldiers and former detainees tell the AP

Several Palestinians and Israeli soldiers say troops are systematically forcing Palestinians to act as human shields in Gaza, sending them into buildings and tunnels to check for bombs and gunmen.

It's obvious that the naked subservience of the PA has gotten them less than nothing. I condemn all crimes against humanity, unlike this guy who is happy to see chains padlocked around Palestinian necks because their lives are worth less than dogs. It is not true that violence is never the answer

This is well put and tragically true

Gonna briefly do an AI take: it used to be possible to have interesting discussions about AI here, and it's got progressively less so. You can't just think AI is bad, or overhyped, you've also got to subscribe to a very particular worst-case scenario about *how* it's bad and how bad it is.

There is a broad and durable political coalition in Canada to stand up to Trump. The political coalition for hammering Canada with tariffs in the US is basically confined to a few Twitter posters.

Good example of the dynamic on here, which is not that the site has "pro-AI" and "anti-AI" factions, but that even acknowledging the existence of a massive field of ubiquitous new technologies is verboten except via hysterical, belligerent ignorance. It's a pure cultural norm untethered to reality.

"A bunch of people would rather post on Race War Now Dot Swastika rather than Bluesky because you keep making fun of their imaginary computer friend" is a RESOUNDING endorsement for the concept of hostility.

Today, I'm writing an article, but I like to dictate my words instead of typing them on the keyboard. With a bit of AI processing, it actually gets 99.9% of the words correct because it understands what I'm trying to say, and the punctuation is perfect. Nice!

Anders Puck Nielsen@anderspucknielsen.dk · 3mo ago

We need the discussion about AI to move beyond the "AI is bad" shitstorm level on Bluesky. It's hurting the adoption of open social media, because normal people don't like getting yelled at. So I think I'll start posting more success stories about how AI is useful in my life.

AI is a tool that can be used for good or for slop. It has real potential, but humans are lazy and flawed. But some researchers are actually working to leverage it in a helpful way, and learning how to best use its strengths.

apropos of nothing, here's a terrific feature about a meaningful, life-saving use of artificial intelligence, which I have been thinking about for over a year. it's just extremely stupid to say that AI has zero benefits even if you don't think it should be used in writing (which I don't)!
