I finished Manhunt last night by @scumbelievable.bsky.social & apart from it being intense and unputdownable, it was also the 1st time I have read about a fat character who has a personality, a major role, and not existing to be a subject of derision. I would have cried but I'd have to stop reading

Excellent thread about Parihaka, which is far more fitting reason to remember remember the 5th of November.
Tomorrow is the Fifth of November – but let’s forget Guy Fawkes and his actions against an arrogant Protestant king and instead look to our own history: the unlawful attack on Parihaka and, by extension, Māori sovereignty.

I'm not going to dunk-quote but I do have to note that "you only hate LLMs because you're too stupid to appreciate how awesome it is" is the exact argument we heard on loop from people whose ugly monkey jpegs are now worth approximately two-fifths of a fart

Auror, who work with the cops, are expanding surveillance capitalism here and violating our civil liberties through providing facial recognition technology to shops with minimal safeguards. This will only end when surveillance capitalism is abolished. www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...
Stage set for much more facial recognition in shops
Auror's number-plate recognition technology is currently under legal scrutiny in the Wellington Court of Appeal.
