The #design mimics how diving #birds move between fluids that differ 800 fold in density. The #research suggests that diving birds prioritize speed over #energy efficiency during underwater wing strokes.

Esta funcionalidad puede aparecerles ya, o aún no, dependiendo de la zona geográfica donde vivan, pero es importante ir revisando la configuración de Instagram periódicamente porque no avisan nada, ni siquiera si algún usuario usara sus contenidos en la IA de META ⚠️
Por ejemplo, puede que les aparezca solo "audio" o "publicaciones y reels" en el apartado de Meta AI

El periodista Carles Planas Bou, especializado en tecnología, también advierte sobre esta nueva medida de META y hace hincapié en lo que explicamos siempre: «El riesgo existe siempre, pero otra cosa es que la misma plataforma lo habilite con fines comerciales» 🎯

¡ATENCIÓN! 🚨 META lanzó un nuevo generador IA de imágenes, llamado Muse, y cambió la configuración dejando POR DEFECTO la opción de que nuestros contenidos de IG (fotos, videos o audios) sean accesibles para que cualquiera los use con ese modelo de IA generativa 🚨
⚠️ REVISEN LA CONFIGURACIÓN de sus perfiles de IG porque a quienes lo teníamos desactivado, nos apareció activado por defecto y tuvimos que ir manualmente a desactivarlo (otra vez) 😠

"Thirty-three states have banded together to sue Meta, alleging that the company was exploiting its young users on Instagram and Facebook for profit, including by collecting data from children without parental consent."
The damages could be as high as $1.4 trillion, nearly the same as Meta's market capitalization at just above $1.5 trillion.

I'm currently trying Mojeek as an alternative to Google, and happy to see they have an active Mastodon account @Mojeek - they're currently asking for testing help at mojeek.com/eval - which is fun to be able to help while searching. I noticed there were some things that seem to be missing, like built in km/mph conversions for example or expected to see a wikipedia URL in the search results. #mojeekfeedback

ECOSIA dice que tiene «la IA más ecológica del mundo» 🤦 Pero el principal problema de esta afirmación es que «IA» y «ecología» son conceptos que van por carriles opuestos, más aún si las empresas en las que se apoyan son parte del grupo que acelera el daño al medioambiente. Esto es puro greenwashing ⚠️

Y alguien dirá: «bueno pero el problema es solo si usas la IA de Ecosia». Y otro dirá: «claro. Especialmente siendo que Ecosia anunció antes de ayer que ahora se puede usar su buscador libre de IA» 🙄
PERO si para búsquedas normales están asociados con Microsoft y Google... ¿no son más de lo mismo? 🤨

right so i got the PowerBook G4. problem is that the 4 key is extremely sensitive and was actually firing repeatedly. i took the 4 key off and it stopped. the slightest touch of the rubber dome thing makes it fire the 4 key. any ideas on how to fix it?
please boost this post, i don't want to use it without a proper 4 key!
💁🏻♀️ TIL: ☀️⚡ #Solar #electricity generation passed #coal for the first time in #US #history in April 2026, driven by continued solar growth and coal’s steady decline.
Utility scale solar produced 31 TWh while small scale rooftop installations added 9.8 TWh, together edging past coal’s 40 TWh. Combined with #wind and hydro, #renewables generated 117 TWh nearly triple coal’s output and approaching #naturalgas at 124 TWh.
