"Whether it’s his posts in favor of the far-right party Alternative for Germany, which harbors Nazi sympathizers, his regular communications with Russian President Vladimir Putin, his support of neo-Fascist Italian leader Giorgia Meloni, or his enmeshment with the Chinese regime, where fully half of his Tesla cars are manufactured, Musk seems fully invested in enabling a new world order favorable to autocracy."

Russian disinfo network “Matryoshka” is migrating to Bluesky

The Russian disinformation network “Matryoshka” has launched a new campaign on the Bluesky social network. Eliot Higgins, founder of the investigative journalism group Bellingcat, has been one of the first researchers to detect its activity. So far, four Russian-made fake videos have been identified on the platform.

The Insider and Bot Blocker reported on a similar campaign in which anti-Ukrainian narratives were presented as coming from professors affiliated with globally renowned institutions — including Harvard University and the University of Cambridge. The professors’ voices were replicated using artificial intelligence (AI) tools — a fact that was verified by the University of Bristol, which at The Insider’s request analyzed a video featuring Ronald Hutton, a prominent British historian and faculty member.

Et juleneg - and yes, it's a tradition, though I don't see many of them any more. Presumably most people who like birds have birdfeeders of all sorts in their garden, so the juleneg is less important.

But when I grew up my dad tied one to the flagpole each Christmas. (And after Christmas the carcass of the Christmas duck would be hung from an apple tree in the garden for the birds to pick at for a week or so - less pretty, but popular with the birds!)

some do. My mom used to do it, but hasn’t for some years. Not sure why actually.

It’s called a “neg”.

I can’t think how to tell you the way to pronounce it, other than the G os somewhat muted, or soft.

@Trine_DK

Would the pronunciation be similar to “nej” (as the equivalent of the english “no”)?

@ɘniɿT

ɘniɿT 3 weeks ago • mastodon (AP)

no.
The E sound is different. In Nej it’s more open mouth sound, like “ah” n-ah-j.

In Neg, it’s more wide in the mouth, like “eh”. N-eh-j … if that makes any sense?

Ukraine’s weapons #industry presses #government to allow #arms exports

source: https://www.politico.eu/article/ukraine-arms-industry-export-weapons/

“Imagine what it would look like? #Ukraine #exports its #weapons during the war while asking partners for #military #aid. Ukrainians would not understand, partners would not understand,” said a senior Ukrainian foreign ministry

Ukraine is currently one of the best places to test modern #warfare #equipment against a confirmed #enemy under real conditions at low cost. Just imagine if the war were to end, an entire #business model would collapse. Surely nobody could want that to happen when the arms industry is doing so well.

I am attempting to set up a MIDI instrument¹ I own to "remap" the buttons to keyboard keys. I want note on/note off to correspond to pressing and depressing keys.

I have tried, with difficulty ( https://mastodon.social/@mcc/113691738296918607 ), two apps: "midikey2key", and UCR.

Neither was able to recognize input (any input) from the MIDI fighter. Both saw it, but they don't see Note messages.

If I use

it sees MIDI inputs just fine.
