Thanks. I don’t know what happened with the original link.

Venezuela needs to sit tight for a week or two until he forgets.

I know some older Canadians who still spend every winter in Florida and plan to retire there. They are, of course, white and reasonably wealthy. Myself, I’d rather not live under fascism no matter how sunny the beach is.

Sure. Just do this cheek swab, let us scan your retina and fingerprints, show us your government-issued ID, provide a little blood and a stool sample, and unlock your phone so we can review your social media posts and messages for the last 5 years. We’ll need bank statements and a credit history too. If you’re approved you can rent shared space on a Chromebook for only $30 per month. Terms and conditions apply.

The macOS port, built by New York-based developer Andrey Letov using AI-assisted development workflows…

Yeah now I can see why he’s unhappy with it.

The numbers have been remarkably stable for 10 years, given what a shitshow it has unmistakably been.

Jonathan Ross has to be a very common name too. Plenty of scope for “congratulating” the wrong person.

It is kind of funny.

For Republicans this is a feature, not a bug.

Reform isn’t anything new. It’s just old-fashioned bigoted fascism. Tory++.

Over LoRa it’s useful for basic off-grid messaging, but the bandwidth is extremely limited.

A meshnet over the internet would have more bandwidth. Various things have been tried. I2P is a kind of logical meshnet over the internet.

I agree that, stated outright, it can sound paranoid and conspiratorial. But think of it as a mindset: “if the poors die that’s because they deserve it, for not being as smart/tough/clever/strong as us”, along with background assumptions about white racial superiority and needing to counter a “great replacement” of whites. Looked at that way, as implicit at least in their outlook if not consciously held, it doesn’t seem so implausible that this is influencing their policy decisions.

One thing I think is going on is an unstated fascist eugenics project, where instead of helping people live they try to set up conditions where many will die. The white supremacists in charge believe that they can filter out the weak and inferior through disease, starvation, and other adverse conditions, leaving behind only the glorious genetically superior white Übermenschen like, er, Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth, Stephen Miller and RFK Jr. There is Nazi thinking behind much of what they do.

Doing this to your own armies in the middle of a war seems clearly stupid, but then so do white supremacist eugenics and starting a war with Iran.

I think it’s just a quirk of their content management system. If you replace “entertainment” in the URL with “news” or “sports” the page still loads. Sometimes the middle bit of the URL is basically disregarded, or only used by the CMS for styling and menus.

AKA “Microsoft’s QA”.

The rich profited, ordinary people lost. Another successful day for the US Government.

Mullen, who in 2025 drew a salary of $336,518, is suspended with pay and was required to surrender his badge and gun pending the outcome of the investigation, according to a spokesperson for the department.

Fucking hell. These guys are not worth a third of that salary, even when they’re working and not just on vacation as a reward for being extra shitty.

It it the methodology or the sample size you’re criticizing? I looked for any details of the poll’s methodology and couldn’t find much, which is a bit dubious, but the sample size seems fine all else being equal.

Can he meet with Netanyahu?

Sounds like quite the waste of money then.
