Now that #JenaCo and #Nexus are done, we enter the final round of events for 2025!

(Both events sadly had similar struggles, so, Thank You if you still supported my art - or if you had time for a chat!)

Looking forward to see you all at another event!

#Nexus

Eine kurze Geschichte der Informationsnetzwerke von der Steinzeit bis zur künstlichen Intelligenz

Mein bisheriges Zugpferd für den Anhänger hat sich von einem #Pedelec zu einem #BioFahrrad verwandelt. Wo bisher eine #Rohloff Schaltnabe werkelte ist nun eine #Shimano #Nexus Fünfgangnabe eingezogen. Wo der #Bafang Motor hing ist nun ein ein Kurbelsatz mit drei Ritzeln montiert. die so verfügbaren 15 Gänge ermöglichen es, auch mit #Muskelkraft einen schweren Anhänger zu ziehen. Der Kettenspanner ist mit längeren Schrauben auf eine feste Position eingestellt. #fahrrad #

Für eure Arbeit: Ein 7"-Nexus-Tablett Mit einem Haupt-IC von Nvidia

Yuval Noah Harari

1. “...social media algorithms see us, simply, as an attention mine. The algorithms reduced the multifaceted range of human emotions—hate, love, outrage, joy, confusion—into a single catchall category: engagement. [..] An hour of lies or hatred was ranked higher than ten minutes of truth or compassion—or an hour of sleep.

Beide Bücher sind vor einigen Jahren geschrieben worden. Heute ist das, was sie schreiben, wahr geworden. Zumindest in USA.
Und Deutschland will sich Peter Thiels #Palantir anschaffen. Wir sind gewarnt!

1. “When one considers the broader history of World War II and its outcome, it becomes evident that Stalinism was in fact one of the most successful political systems ever devised—if we define “success” purely in terms of order and power while disregarding all considerations of ethics and human well-being.

“In 2019, I went on a tour of Chernobyl. The Ukrainian guide who explained what led to the nuclear accident said something that stuck in my mind. “Americans grow up with the idea that questions lead to answers,” he said. “But Soviet citizens grew up with the idea that questions lead to trouble.”

"..modern totalitarianism has worked by deploying several overlapping surveillance mechanisms that keep one another in order. The party is never alone; it works alongside state organs, on the one side, and the secret police, on the other. ”

"..what made the secret police [the East German Stasi, the Nazi SS, the Romanian Securitate] powerful was its command of information. It had the information necessary to preempt a military coup and to arrest the commanders of tank brigades or fighter squadrons before they knew what hit them. ”
