BuurToren

NEW SQUAT IN TOWN

BuurToren is a Rotterdam-based collective that stands for a city built on solidarity: a city where everyone has a place to live. We make use of vacant buildings to provide shelter for people without a home and give these properties a social, community-/ neighbourhood-focused purpose.

Together, we fight for more connection instead of seperation. Will you help bridge the gap between Rotterdammers with a home and those who are homeless or unhoused?

and we could use your help!

Come by our building day this sunday (25/05) from 11.00 and/or join the open assembly at 18.00

New research reveals Australian authors say no to AI using their work – even if money is on the table


For many authors, their work is more than just intellectual property. It represents their voice, their identity and years of creative labour, often undertaken with little financial return.

The idea that a machine could replicate that work without consent, credit or payment is not only unsettling; for many, it feels like a fundamental violation of creative ownership.

This is not simply a case of authors being hesitant to engage with emerging technologies. Our findings suggest a more informed and considered stance. Most respondents had a moderate or strong understanding of how generative AI models are trained. They also made clear distinctions between tools that support creativity and those designed to replace it entirely.

Últimamente encontramos que muchas organizaciones trabajando en la defensa de los #derechosdigitales, la libertad de expresión y la autonomía tecnológica utilizamos las plataformas de redes sociales privativas y comerciales como una de las principales herramientas para nuestro activismo y acciones de comunicación, mientras que las redes sociales libres, descentralizadas y federadas son poco o nada utilizadas.
Esta es una realidad que nos genera múltiples interrogantes:

@toscalix muchas gracias por explicarnos cómo funciona el mundo de las religiones!
in reply to Sursiendo

sí, mis estudiantes se niegan a dejar las redes privativas porque son sus fuentes de información. Incluso yo, me doy muy clavados a las redes de meta para no perderme eventos y noticias que no se publican en el Fediverso 🙁

I am focusing on end-user options for people not interested in running their own server (i.e. most people).

Have you seen the comparatively low ranking of Britain in this list? Well, their universities were much more popular 5 years ago, but Brexit and a surge in right-wing isolationism in post-Brexit Britain made a considerable dent.

Well, Trump 2.0 is actually one Brexit per day combined with a Stalinist personality cult - hence, it's even more disastrous than the already quite straining Brexit.

penguin is a great logo, IDK what the naysayers were on about. 😛

Your picture reminds me of pictures we took during our holidays in Yugoslavia in the 1970s. Not just the colours and the appearance of the image itself but also the scenery - It reminds me of the coast near the Istrian penninsula.

Most of those family pictures were taken on a Praktica SLR.

Maybe I should dig out my old B100 and start using it again.

Hopefully they’ll find a way to open up anti-cheat to all linux users. I don’t like the idea of locking the game to just Steam decks.


I'm a Sam Ryder fan. I even have a signed copy of one of his CDs! He just came out with a break-up song that is a bit disappointing. Mind you many break-up songs make me wonder, if I want to continue supporting certain artists. One of the few songs like that which I do like is the Passenger song "Let Her Go". The song is heartfelt, the music is beautiful, and he is being respectful of his former girlfriend's autonomy. She is a human being, not a piece of property. If I were in the dating market, if might give this guy a chance. Anyone who can let go of a partner gracefully is brave and a genuine treasure.
