Cuba@lemmy.ml•‘Cuba Is the Moral and Political Compass of the World’ (I)
2·9 days agoInterview with Cuban Leader Ernesto Limia Díaz (Part 1 of 3)
Nov 7, 2025Limia acknowledged that this economic crisis is caused, to a large degree, by an intensifying #US economic war aimed at asphyxiating and overthrowing the Cuban Revolution. However, he focused his essay on “the problems that, in my humble opinion, are within our means to solve as soon as possible.”
Among other important points, he noted that “we cannot ignore that formalizing a private economy presents challenges to the Cuban model. One thing we must be clear about: under socialism the blind laws of the market cannot govern ― or to be precise, the ‘blind’ laws of those seers who control the market. Under socialism the market cannot dictate the trajectory, it must establish a harmonious relationship with the interests of society. Achieving this requires planning, audacity, control, and solidarity education.”

World News@lemmy.ml•Microsoft revokes cloud services from Israel’s Unit 8200, following +972 exposé
1·22 days agoI’ve been reading a lot of articles from 972, and I don’t see evidence of that. Do they explicitly call for the destruction of the Zionist state? No, but that doesn’t make 972 a liberal Zionist rag. (In fact, their latest issue explicitly takes on liberal Israelis on the Gaza genocide.)
If you have some examples where they took bad positions on something concrete, please send them to me. I could be wrong.

Technology@lemmy.ml•The family of teenager who died by suicide alleges OpenAI's ChatGPT is to blame
1·3 months agoI don’t understand your logic here. Clearly, the kid had problems that were not caused by ChatGPT. And his suicidal thoughts were not started by ChatGPT. But OpenAI acknowledged that the longer the engagement continues the more likely that ChatGPT will go off the rails. Which is what happened here. At first, ChatGPT was giving the standard correct advice about suicide lines, etc. Then it started getting darker, where it was telling the kid to not let his mother know how he was feeling. Then it progressed to actual suicide coaching. So I don’t think the analogy to videogames is correct here.

1·3 months agoThat was not my headline, it was the publication’s headline, which was quoting from the Israeli officer. Yes, I didn’t like it either, so I just removed it from the main headline and replaced it with the one from Haaretz. I can’t fix the subheadline.
