Looking forward to the part where the AI companies run us out of computers and I get to write books with a quill

Hyperscalers are tearing hard drives out of the hands of manufacturers. Prices are therefore also rising for SSDs.

Reading this on a train in Berlin, where the fascist haircuts and clothing brands are being worn with more confidence than ever. (Interestingly enough it feels like antifa are making themselves more visible too.)
If there are still people to reflect on what is happening now in a 100 years, they will have a damning view of the easy ride the far right was given by the mainstream elite
Incredible how the institutions we were told would protect us from fascism did not simply crumble but opened the gates

New drone footage from @floodlightnews.org - the fossil methane power plant Musk built specifically to create abusive and racist material on his social media website is still wildly breaching EPA regulations even after a ruling against using them -->>>

‘Regrets? Number one: smoking. Number two: taking it up the wrong hole’: Tracey Emin on reputation, radical honesty – and Reform
She scandalised the art world in the 1990s with her unmade bed, partied hard in the 2000s – then a brush with death turned the artist’s life upside down. Now she’s as frank as ever

Kritiek op shirts van Spelen tijdens nazi-Duitsland, IOC verdedigt verkoop
De Spelen van 1936 werden door het naziregime van Adolf Hitler gebruikt als propagandamiddel om het idee van Arische superioriteit uit te dragen.

In Parijs sprak ik Gisèle Pelicot over het leven en over haar proces, oog in oog met de vijftig mannen die haar met hulp van haar echtgenoot, thuis hebben misbruikt
Hoe ze los kwam van schaamte
En geen haat voelt

De Franse rechtszaak van Gisèle Pelicot maakte veel los. Zelf zweeg Pelicot sinds de veroordeling van 51 daders. Nu vertelt ze haar verhaal in het boek Ode aan het Leven.

What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.
Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

wow -- Bondi throws a fit in response to Nadler's question about how many of Epstein's co-conspirators, if any, she's investigating, aggressively pointing at him and yelling. The hearing then devolves into chaos and Raskin and Bondi start yelling at each other.

Jeffrey Epstein died on August 10th. In the Epstein files, there is what appears to be a draft DOJ press release announcing his death that is dated August 9th.

The release on Saturday, August 10th appears to have two differences. The date, and the addition of “of an apparent suicide” www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr...

This Super Bowl Sunday, I’d like to introduce you all to the magical curse bowls used in Upper Mesopotamia and Syria in late antiquity. Written in Mandaic (as here) or Syriac Aramaic, they trap demons who trespass on a household by sucking them in with spiraling spells to the center of the bowl.
