I was debating going with a 16in M4 Pro vs a 14in M4 Max, and really wanted the larger screen size but thought I'd regret not having the better processor and graphics. Well Best Buy had the 16in with the specs of the 14in for $400 off, which makes it cheaper than either previous choice. The only thing I'm down is 12gigs of ram (48 vs 36) but I feel like 36 is a lot already. My current computer has like 8 gigs lol.

Now I'm just waiting for the order to show up confirmed on Best Buy's website and to get a confirmation email. It shows that it's already charged my card, and it's driving me nuts! They only have two in stock so I'm sweating.

My next update will hopefully be brought to you by the blazing fast performance of the M4 Max. I can finally turn off poor mode!

Every day there's an update on the Canada, UK, Australia, and NZ race to see who can become the most tyrannical country

My thoughts immediately go to all the queer kids in rural areas who stand to be cut off from the only support networks they have.

I can't build a single fricking part of ROCm because these r-slurs decided to throw the entire concept of isolated environments in the trash. Every single piece of software errors out due to some bullshit (setupcowtools being the main one don't get me started on those tards) so now I have to edit every fricking cmake file and remove the --system-site-packages so it makes an actually isolated venv and doesn't choke on the incompatible dependencies it pulls from my system wide environment

Guess the country!

I've removed the Bluesky data from the repo. While I wanted to support tool development for the platform, I recognize this approach violated principles of transparency and consent in data collection. I apologize for this mistake.

These r-slurs realize there is a public firehose API where you can collect every post right? I myself collected like 20M before I got bored and stopped.

(Translation by kiwis)

https://kiwifarms.st/threads/eu-authority-demands-real-time-surveillance-of-phones-and-laptops-starting-2025.205637/

A EU authority is demanding real-time surveillance of phones and laptops starting in 2025. They demand that the police shall be able to read messages in the entire European Union in real-time. The occasion: fighting organized crime. For the "High-Level Group (HLG) on access to data for effective law enforcement", data protection and privacy play nothing but a formal role.

The HLG consists of members from the EU Commission, representatives of the EU member states, and law enforcement agencies. On November 22, the HLG demanded that the EU Commission submit a proposition in the coming year to allow a real-time access on communications data. This is reported by Euractiv. Already in May, the HLG presented its preliminary research results in a report. The group was set up in 2023 and works on finding out how law enforcement agencies can get an easier access to data in order to fight against organized crime. In a concluding report from November 15, the group presented its results and demands.

Thus, the concluding report criticized that the different regulations regarding data retention in the individual EU states lead to problems in cross-border criminal prosecution. Specifically, the HLG demanded in their preliminary report from May that the industry should be mandated to cooperate with the agencies so that the police gets access to data that allows for an identification of users, such as the storing of IP addresses. In addition, they demand that non-cooperative electronic communication services shall be subject to prohibitive sanctions.

Read messages even before they are sent

Already in May, they demanded that there shall be a EU initiative which allows for looking at "data in transit", thus do real-time surveillance. In the concluding report from November 15, the HLG doubled down on the demand and strongly demanded that the Commission issue a corresponding proposition in 2025. By real-time surveillance, the HLG means that messages are able to be read even before they are sent, or shortly after they reached the recipient.

In the concluding report, they also said that the fact that they can't access the data in real-time allegedly causes big difficulties for crime prevention. Police officers have to make use of methods like installing cameras or microphones, which are dangerous for the officers. If you are not able to read messages, all other persons surrounding a suspect must be surveilled too. The HLG also demands more funding in the coming EU budget to stock up on means for "digital forensic cowtools".

Currently, there is no mutual regulation for mass data retention in the European Union because the European Court of Justice has declared the prior guideline on data retention invalid in 2014. The European Data Protection Committee criticized the HLG's demands in a statement on November 4. The demands would strongly invade the right to data protection and privacy. The committee also criticized the demand to weaken encryption.

————-

The article itself seems to be based on another, and the following is just one statement by the High Level Group

Retention seems to be relegated to IP addresses and ports for long term retention to allow identification, likely things like times and any other info not deemed to be violating privacy (in their subhuman idea of privacy)

About encryption it recommends looking further into encryption and how things like backdoors might affect the security, as they can't enforce all methods to simply be weaker but do find it rightful for law enforcement to have a way to cross the hurdle of encryption.

I have $11k to play with - most of which will end up going towards car expenses. I have to spend like $3000 of it before the end of the year for reasons I won't elaborate on. So it's this, or putting money into the Porsche, and I can't use the Porsche during the winter so it would lack the gratification I'm seeking to do so.

I used to be a professional photographer (www.bradgillette.net) and during the process became really good at Photoshop.

Then I stopped working, my computer got old (2013 i7 iMac), and I couldn't edit in Photoshop anymore because my computer was too slow. I don't know if I'm going to be able to become a professional photographer again, or if it's just going to be a hobby, but I'm worried I've lost a lot of my skills from lack of use. I feel like having a new, more powerful computer will inspire me to get back into it. In the meantime I've gotten really good at nailing shots in-camera and doing very minor editing, basically limited to what I could do in a physical color darkroom. That said, my images could always be improved with Photoshop.

I bought my current computer, a 2020 M1 MacBook Air, a couple years ago to do normal computer things and minor editing with my old camera (Canon 5D mkII) but now I have a new camera (Canon 5R) that produces much larger file sizes and it's too slow to run Photoshop to any useful extent and using Lightroom is painful.

I also want to get back into video production.

Should I dump $3500 into a laptop that could do everything I could ask of it, even though I don't have the income stream to support it at the time, and use it for practice? Or should I look at cheaper options like around $2500. I feel like if I don't spend the extra $1000 it'll come to bite me in the butt in the future.

Are there actual health benefits of drinking more water?

Publicly released: Tue 26 Nov 2024 at 0300 AEDT | 0500 NZDT

We often get told we should drink more water, but US experts say the actual benefits of increasing water consumption are not well established, so they set out to review the evidence that drinking more water is good for you. They found that while there is a limited number of clinical trials, a small number of studies did suggest increasing your water intake has benefits for weight loss and kidney stones. There were also individual studies which they say raise the possibility of benefits for migraine prevention, UTIs, diabetes control, and low blood pressure. They say that given how cheap and safe water is, we should have more well-designed studies to assess the benefits of drinking more water for these conditions.

If you drank water before today, in any amount at all, you are nothing more than a pseudoscience peddling witch doctor twink.

Thank you Neil.

Thank you Bill.

Thank you the other Bill.

Thank you Asian Dude.

Thank you Newton.
