Humanity, created by God in all its grandeur, is today facing a pivotal choice: either to construct a new Tower of Babel or to build the city in which God and humanity dwell together. In Jesus Christ, this humanity in its grandeur becomes the Way, the Truth and the Life, opening the path for each of us to grow toward fullness. #MagnificaHumanitas

Google Chrome is quietly downloading a roughly 4 GB AI model to many users’ computers without clear upfront consent.
The file, called weights.bin, is part of Google’s Gemini Nano on-device language model and lands in the browser’s user data folder under OptGuideOnDeviceModel.
It powers built-in AI tools such as “Help me write,” smarter tab suggestions, on-device scam detection, and page summarization. The download triggers automatically for devices meeting minimum hardware requirements, and Chrome often replaces the files if deleted.
While the model processes data locally, installation happens in the background with minimal notification.
The scale is noteworthy. Hundreds of millions or billions of installations add up to thousands of tonnes of carbon emissions globally from data transfer, even though each is a one-time event.
To prevent or remove it, go to chrome://flags, disable the entries for the optimization guide on-device model and Prompt API, restart the browser, and manually delete the folder.
@batumakaramus@FlowerMomFriend Ozai didn’t kill Sozin, he killed Azulon. Sozin (great grandad) killed Roku and Air Nation, Azulon (grandad) continued conquest to Water and Earth, and then Ozai (dad) killed Azulon so he would get crown over older brother Iroh (uncle). But I get the spirit of what you’re saying
You know, it turns out it wasn't just one Iranian school that was hit that killed 175 people, it turns out that we have hit 498 education facilities in Iran. Not only that, we've also hit 275 hospitals. Are we great yet? Cuz from where I'm standing we just look like terrorists.
a mass genocide is happening. an ethnic cleansing is occurring. cities are being bombed. tens of thousands of innocents are being executed and even more will follow. this is not the time for ignorance. please do not take a blind eye to this. please spread the word.
If you don't cut off Israel completely at this point when they're openly demonstrating the crimes against humanity they're about to perform then you'll never be able to pretend you didn't know
Israel has now become the first state to codify a death sentence that applies in practice to one ethnic group, while another is effectively shielded from it.
if u aren't concerned with the current political, educational, and economical state of the country rn, i'm concerned for YOU. that level of privilege and ignorance is beyond what i can comprehend 💀
