    Mordor: Professional breeders families coming
    • Currently, large families in the Russian Federation make up 6.5% of all families with children, but almost 20% of all Russian children grow up in them. In order for the population in the Russian Federation to at least remain and not decrease, the number of large families in the country should increase by 7 times by 2035 and make up about half of all Russian families. This is a kind of categorical demographic imperative for the Russian state and society.

      Despite the still cultivated attitudes towards having few children, moreover, maintaining the state of actually forced small children, the specified target increase in the number of large families is quite possible. In any case, the main tool and driver of demography in Russia is the directed increase in the number of large families with the help of all possible cultural, humanitarian, social, financial and economic efforts of the state and society.

      In essence, this presupposes the transfer of the social stratum (stratum) of large families from the state of only an object of social protection to the state of the elite social stratum of Russia. However, for this, it is necessary to legislatively define and ensure, by analogy with the federal laws "On the status of military personnel" (N 76-FZ) or "On the status of a member of the Federation Council and the status of a deputy of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation" (N 3-FZ), the special status of large families families as a national treasure and the main resource of positive demography.

      It is the introduction of a special status for large families as the elite of the Russian population that constitutes the essence and novelty of the proposed bill.

      New law coming that allow such families to have huge subsidies exceeding their usual income and turning them into professional breeders.

    MAGA: Evictions Moratorium Battle
    • On June 9, the US Supreme Court, by a split of 5 to 4, rejected the Alabama District Court's decision upholding the landlord association's claim to lift the eviction moratorium, which was issued by the CDC. Supreme Court Justice, Tram's appointee, Brett Cowano, commented on the decision on behalf of the majority:

      “I agree with the District Court and the applicants that the CDC has exceeded its existing legal authority by declaring a nationwide moratorium on evictions. By Congress to Help Tenants, I vote to overturn the District Court's decision to suspend it. For the CDC to extend the moratorium beyond July 31, clear and specific congressional approval will be required through new legislation. "

      On July 29, White House Press Secretary Jane Psaki issued a statement indicating that “President Biden would strongly support the CDC's decision to further extend the moratorium on evictions. Unfortunately, the Supreme Court has made it clear that this option is no longer available. " "In light of the Supreme Court decision, the President is urging Congress to immediately extend the moratorium on evictions to protect vulnerable tenants and their families."

      On Monday August 2, White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Biden had asked the CDC on Sunday to consider extending the moratorium by 30 days, but the agency "could not find a legal basis for a new, targeted eviction moratorium."

      However, on August 3, the CDC still issued a directive declaring a moratorium on evictions until October 3, 2021, citing an outbreak of COVID-19 strain Delta.

      The new moratorium on evictions provides criminal penalties for landlords who will evict tenants. So the document states that an eviction that "does not lead to death" can be punishable by a fine of up to $ 100,000 and one year in prison. Eviction that "resulted in death" is punishable by a fine of up to $ 250,000 and one year in prison. For organizations, fines are $ 200,000 and $ 500,000, respectively.

      According to the National Housing Coalition, about 6 million tenants could be homeless. According to researchers from the Aspen Institute, given the composition of the family, this is approximately 15 million people. The eviction of such a number of people, in a short time, would definitely lead to a social explosion, which cannot be allowed.

      Nice, everyone want to make it infinite. I am for 100% prohibition of any renting of homes.

    War: Apple tomorrow starts checking all your photos and reporting you to government
    • image

      As reported by 9to5mac.com, Apple plans to soon announce a system for scanning photos stored in the smartphone's memory. The system is designed to detect images of child abuse (so they tell!). The solution is based on a fully closed black box like AI based hashing algorithm (aka “neuralMatch” system). At the start the neuralMatch system will be trained using a database from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and will be limited to iPhones in the United States. But both parts will change fast. System is planned to cover many categories of images and will be used worldwide in 2022 already.

      Images will be scanned locally and without notifying or informing the owner of the smartphone, but also without transferring the full initial data to the cloud. During the scanning process, the system compares the photo on the phone with the data of the images of illegal content known to Apple. If there are coincidences with samples of incorrect images, according to the corporation, the system will presumably contact the administrators - low-paid residents of India or Bangladesh, who will carry out further work and decide how to act in your case. Among the actions, a complete instant phone lock is possible to prevent the possibility of deleting evidence.

      The solution is based on hashing algorithms that are already used in the iCloud cloud storage when uploading photos. In general terms, the machine learning system that allows Apple Photos to recognize objects works in a similar way.

      https://www.ft.com/content/14440f81-d405-452f-97e2-a81458f5411f

      It is clear that Apple want to underplay the coming feature, constantly referring to hashing and such. In reality such algorithm will be constantly evolving and will report and send your private photos for constantly widening number of reasons.

      For reference - all blocking and internet censorship in Mordor (and in all other countries) also started from child abuse and pedophiles. As it is universal thing that is very hard to complain about.

      Also interesting

      The update will be rolling out at a later date, along with several other child safety features, including new parental controls that can detect explicit photos in children's Messages.

      It will be huge blow for 12-18 year olds who flirts and already have sex or petting, so they share such images with their partners. Now parents will be getting copy of each such thing. Creepy.

    War: AI and efficient management
    • Xsolla is very profitable sweat shop company making stuff for payments processing for gaming apps.

      They fired 147 out of 500 people (making all the remaining work for this guys) based on some black box AI solution that analyzed all their activity, like number of chat messages and number of code lines submitted, number of emails they got. Yes, such primitive. Owner explained the mass layoffs by the fact that the company stopped showing 40% growth, and profits rose only around 50% (but wages did not change at all in 2020).

      In parallel they cut 10% of the wage fund as all the rest are also clearly not efficient and owner still have only two yachts, one in EU and one in US, but last info is not certain.

    TVs: OLED and 8K are not doing very good
    • OLED panels accounted for tiny 2.6% of the market in Q1 2021, according to consultancy TrendForce, thanks to a reduction in the price differential between OLED and LCD. At the same time, in the same period, the share of 8K LCD-panels fell to 0.2%, since they were not very profitable for manufacturers and at the same time the demand was several times lower than their expectations.

      Chinese panel suppliers accounted for 58.3 percent of the market, up 5 percent from the first quarter of 2020, thanks in large part to an increase in the number of production lines, TrendForce reports. Taiwan suppliers, on the contrary, lost 2.2% - their share fell to 21.1%. The reason is the lack of growth of the corresponding industries and even a change in the profile of activities from the production of TV panels to the production of other IT products. Korean suppliers slashed shipments to 14.3% after Samsung Display closed its Korean factories L7-2 and L8-1-2 and sold its plant in China's Suzhou province to CSOT. Finally, the share of Japanese suppliers rose to 6.3%.
