What does it mean?

Of Course obviously this is fake but every time it comes up it just reminds me of how remarkable AI has become. Frankly that footage looks like a black and white film filmed in the 1920s and would be difficult to distinguish from one with exception of the physics of lifting the rocks obviously thing wrong as they seem almost weightless. But otherwise the detail is immaculate and the coloration and black and white nature of the whole thing is just spot on. It just goes to show again that we really must have some required labeling of AI produced film. We we just got to make it a law with large penalties if it's not labeled because the potential for deception is terrible. I mean it's bad enough the deception that can happen with editing in live interviews and other things but now that film can be completely created from nothing showing people doing things they never actually did it's far worse with far more lasting mental impact on those who view it than even reading rewritten history or censored history or other things.

Is Lycos search censored, or still free?

They're doing this whole 12 days of Christmas thing

Day 1 - O1 reasoning model released (faster better than preview)
Day 2 - enhanced fine tuning
Day 3 (today) - Sora

Sora is currently unavailable (presumably because so many white men are trying to use it) BUT if you want to get your AI video genreated fix I highly recommend taking a look at https://civitai.com/videos it's basically open source sora. It'a cool as fuck. I could, and often do, scroll though it for hours.

Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), in short is a whole slew of permits (€€€) and regulations which makes is nearly impossible to purchase anything with bitcoin (or crypto in general).
Organisations facilitation crypto services need to collect all kinds of information of users and transaction streams ((against terrorism)) of course.

The regulation sees to 'governance, capital regulation en administration'. So shops don't necessary need to comply, but any company facilitating that will, killing crypto as payment for common people (as I see it).

After watching a YouTube video with only one fact (11.2 nanometers) I searched the web and worked my way back along the chain of Chinese Whispers to reach a Russian source. Using Google translate, this does seem to be genuinely interesting, albeit on a ten year time scale.

In the short term Russia might be managing home grown photo lithography at 350 nm next year, and the article says "The new laser will "pump up" it to 130 nm." Does that mean frequency doubling to get 130 nm light from 260 nm light? Or frequency tripling to get 130 nm light from 390 nm light? I'm still reading journalism, even if it is Russian :-(
