- non-discriminatory access for professional repairers to any software or firmware needed for the replacement
It applies from 20 June 2025.
Honestly that sounds more like a hardware issue than software
Oh come on, just accept that the wording of the headline is wrong and misleading.
If a Country is named in the headline like this, it is always implied to be the state/government. No other interpretation makes sense, the society is surely not using ai to censor.
Even if we consider that not to be the case, just for the sake of the argument, you still can not say "a few people at this project" = "Germany (Society)". I heavily caution you to not go down the generalization route of "a select group" = "german society". You ought to think about what that assertion would mean in the context of hamas and palastinians.
Also TU is a public university, so it's still an emanation of the state, state-funded and state-controlled.
While universities get funding from the state, they are mostly free to research what they choose. On the projects website is also no sign of direct funding by the state. You are free to criticize the research, but what you are implying is that the state should censor the direction of research because you don‘t like it, which is quite ironic.
This is a clickbait headline. The headline implies that the German State is using AI to censor. It is not! While there might be a lot to criticize the German State/Goverment for, this is not it.
It is a different actor developing a model, not the state. One can rightly criticize that, but that is definitely protected under scientific freedom.
[…] the Decoding Antisemitism project at the Center for Research on Antisemitism at the Technical University Berlin […]. With the help of a large language computing model, the project aims to create “an [AI] algorithm that will automatically recognize antisemitic statements in web comments . . . so that antisemitic posts can be removed more efficiently and accurately” by online platforms.
There is a shortcut for Fullscreen, i thunk its F11
Most people don’t know that it wasn’t just VW. Sadly I don‘t think you will find any moral acting car manufacturer out there.
Automakers who have been caught using a defeat device within a diesel vehicle, in a similar manner to Volkswagen include: Jeep and Ram under FCA[391] (now a part of Stellantis), Opel[392] (when under GM), and Mercedes-Benz.[393]
While not all using defeat devices, diesel vehicles built by a wide range of carmakers, including Volvo, Renault, Mercedes, Jeep, Hyundai, Citroen, BMW, Mazda, Fiat, Ford and Peugeot[48][49] had independent tests carried out by ADAC that proved that, under normal driving conditions, many diesel vehicles exceeded legal European emission limits for nitrogen oxide (NOx), some by more than 10 times, and one by 14 times.[49]
Beyond exclusively diesel or passenger vehicles, automakers such as: Hino[414] (subsidiary of Toyota), Hyundai and Kia,[415] Nissan,[416] Mazda, Yamaha Motors, Suzuki,[417] Subaru,[418] and others have been proven to be falsifying fuel economy or emissions on non-diesel powered and/or commercial vehicles.
The preceding open letter to Organic Maps shareholders gives some context for the decision to fork.
The Organic Maps project has been built and promoted under the premise of being an open community project, so it's troubling to discover that the majority of shareholders consider it to be their sole property. More concerns include lack of transparency and accountability in project governance and violation of stated Free and Open Source Software values. (see Addendum for the details)[…]
Interesting and troubling read, didn’t know that about Organic Maps.
Why would that need listening? I imagine if one is pregnant you are searching for lots of information online: symptoms, physicians, due date etc.
Agreed, Cryptomator is what you are looking for
Yep, the problems that require more than the steam flatpak can deliver would of course still be there. But you wouldn’t suddenly be on a depreciated distro without a path forward. Thats what I meant by not totally screwed.
