heise online · Heimliche Browser-Überwachung von Schulkindern? Google verklagtBy Daniel AJ Sokolov

I've long believed that the #BritishColumbia #MotorVehicle Act makes it unlawful for a four-year-old to ride their bike on a sidewalk.

Today, I uploaded a PDF of the Act into #NotebookLM and asked #Gemini , to see what a machine can mine out of it.

For what it's worth, the thing concurs. If a municipality does not make a bylaw allowing otherwise (exception under section 124), indeed it is not lawful for a even four-year old to pedal their bike on a sidewalk according to 183(2)(a).

Insane!

Ooh it gets better. When I said there is no string-builder the response (emphasis from Gemini) was:

"While string-builder /is/ part of Emacs since version 27.1, if you're encountering issues there might be something unusual in your specific environment or load path."

Translation: Stupid meat-bag

🤣

Sigo en mi empeño de rescatar el hashtag #gemini de las garras de Google.
Se usaba antes de que se inventaran la mierda esa de la IA suya, así que os dejo por aquí la "Historia de Apple para dummys" de mi cápsula Archienemigos.
Quizá pronto haga la historia de Google para dummys 🤔

@skribe Conversely, the cost of printing, distribution, and storage puts up a barrier to spamming people on other continents with mass quantities of low value slop.

Just think through the logistics of a hostile Eurasian state sending a mass quantity of printed materials to Australia or North America.

Or, for that matter, a hostile North American state sending a mass quantity of printed materials to Europe or Asia.

You would either need:–

a) At least one printing press on each continent;
b) You could try shipping the magazines, but they'd be a month out of date when they arrive; or
c) You could try flying them overseas, but that would be very expensive very quickly.

That's before you worry about things like delivery drivers (or postage), and warehouses.

These are less of an issue for books than they are for newspapers or magazines.

And if a particular newspaper or magazine is known to be reliable, written by humans, researched offline, and the articles are not available online, then there's potentially value in people buying a physical copy.
