I not infrequently see an argument that goes: "Making ethical NLP (or "AI") systems is too hard because humans haven't agreed on what is ethical/moral/right"

Just when we see the back of a law-breaking, Parliament-proroguing, office-abusing PM in Boris Johnson - he's replaced by a climate-wrecking, handout-refusing, redistribution-opposing, Brexit ideologue PM in @trussliz@twitter.com

If you dual boot Linux and Windows on your machine, be careful with the most recent Window updates!

Microsoft disabled more than 100 SecureBoot signatures and locks out distros like Ubuntu 20.04 or Manjaro from booting on your computer.

You can temporarily disable SecureBoot in your BIOS settings, should you already be affected by this situation.

If we are to postulate that #surveillance #capitalism accounts for 20% of daily internet usage - ie network connections without us being aware and not related to what we are actually looking up - (ie looking up a recipe connects a billion times to #facebook #google #telemetry #tracking #advertising etc), then blocking all of this bullshit is not only a sensible #ethical and #privacy choice but an #environmental responsibility due to the cumulative reduction in electricity usage.
