Don’t personally see much difference except surface level stuff.

Free Speech Goes Only One Way

According to AP, there were messages engraved on the casings in the Kirk shooting. They read:

• One read, “hey fascist! catch!” with an up arrow symbol, right arrow symbol, and three down arrow symbols. 
• Another one read: “oh bella ciao bella ciao bella ciao ciao ciao,” Cox said. 
• The third fired casing read: “if you read this you are gay lmao.”

My first thought is. Whoever killed Kirk was clearly inspired by Luigi. The writing on the casings just like Luigi did. The timing. It just makes sense.

Does this mean Luigi’s propaganda of the deed was successful? I think so. In any case, I wonder if this means there is more to come.

The firm guarding sites where aid is distributed in Gaza has been using members of a US biker gang with a history of hostility to Islam to run its armed security, a BBC investigation has found.

In July, EPFL, ETH Zurich, and CSCS announced their joint initiative to build a large language model (LLM). Now, this model is available and serves as a building block for developers and organisations for future applications such as chatbots, translation systems, or educational tools.

The model is named Apertus – Latin for “open” – highlighting its distinctive feature: the entire development process, including its architecture, model weights, and training data and recipes, is openly accessible and fully documented.

AI researchers, professionals, and experienced enthusiasts can either access the model through the strategic partner Swisscom or download it from Hugging Face – a platform for AI models and applications – and deploy it for their own projects. Apertus is freely available in two sizes – featuring 8 billion and 70 billion parameters, the smaller model being more appropriate for individual usage. Both models are released under a permissive open-source license, allowing use in education and research as well as broad societal and commercial applications.

Say I have a link to an article or a title of an article. I wanna see if it’s already been posted somewhere.

The piefed or lemmy search bars are a little hit or miss. Is there anything better?
