By now, it should be clear that all popular software and services are using your data to train their own AI ambitions.
Including Bluesky.
It should not be a surprise that Google is reading your emails.

russia is genociding Ukrainians again right now but again the world sleeps and looks for ways to sell Ukrainians to russia.
Every year on the last Saturday of November, Ukraine honors victims of the Holodomor.
The Holodomor refers to 3 artificial famines orchestrated by the Soviet regime in 1921–1923, 1932–1933, and 1946–1947.

So the Turning test has been passed.
When will whole political bodies, designed to manipulate nations via social media, tv images and video, email, be created and run by AI?
If you haven’t physically seen IRL and verified people as human and making autonomous decisions, are they even real anymore?

3/7 Since 1950, the Turing test was the gold standard.
Yet, when OpenAI’s GPT-4.5 decisively passed it in 2025, the news barely made a ripple.
When models crushed the bar exam or solved Ph.D.-level math, we didn’t arm the resistance. We just shrugged and raised the bar.

90% of our congress would not even be able to pronounce half of this...
Every 50 years, based on census, we should redraw state boundaries to “redistrict” for equal representation in the senate and electoral college. That would solve so much.

⚡️In Krasnoperekopsk, one of the most important Crimean electrical substations was hit at night
The 220 kV substation "Krasnoperekopsk" (also known as "PS 220/6 kV 'Soda'") is a key node in the peninsula's power system, one of the main trunk nodes.

Just so. A university that surrenders to this belligerent, anti-intellectual nonsense has lost much of its claim to be a university at all.
Admin at UC have claimed various reasons why they aren’t fighting in court, but they simply are afraid to take on the Feds, believing antagonism will somehow make a terrible situation worse. Thing is, it can’t be much worse, and you can’t placate a bully.

After the last 10 mos. I freely admit that I've become more than a little paranoid but I'm glad to hear you haven't. Lately I've been experimenting with living w/o a cellphone in case Trump decides to invade Canada where 85% of us live w/i 45 mins of the border. Many have contingency plans.
I’m hesitant myself to follow someone who has few posts & follows thousands… I feel a need to find out how they think & in some cases a bio is missing… I agree but since it’s BlueSky & not Twitter I do feel better & not too paranoid about it- I figure they’re shy & wait then follow later💙💫

Thanks Mr Gus; I like learning how things work but I love learning why they work. Wish I'd had a science teacher who taught that way.

The hot water melts grease that thickened when it cooled in the trap. The mix clears light sludge and keeps new film from sticking.

Why does salt work:
Salt crystals provide mechanical cleaning. They scrape thin layers of slime without harming the pipe.
As they dissolve, brine disrupts bacterial biofilm that clings to the inner wall.

The half-glass method
Reach for ordinary table salt, not vinegar, not baking soda. Then add heat. The combo scrubs, loosens fat, and freshens the trap.
Step-by-step in two minutes
Pour half a cup (about half a glass) of fine table salt straight into the drain.
