NEW: This is a REAL story in The Globe and Mail today.
Canadian Armed Forces are modelling responses to a US military invasion from the south.
They expect Canadian forces to be overrun in a fortnight, so the plan centres on Afghanistan-style insurgencies to inflict mass casualties on US troops

The Norwegians must be feeling terrible about how Trump is beating up on Denmark because a Norwegian organization didn't kiss Trump's Depends. Sweden is mopping their brow over their near miss.

The Vice President and the cabinet have to sign on to a 25th amendment ruling.
Impeachment and conviction in the senate would send a message to the new president that the 25th amendment wouldn't.

Over many decades, we've made good friends in the neighborhood. Some of them have been a little nervous because we are a 7 foot, 300 pound pro-wrestler, but we've helped defend the neighborhood for decades.
Now, suddenly, we are going to steal a neighbor's kid because we are bigger and stronger. 🧵

Denmark is offering to buy California, The Netherlands is offering to buy New Amsterdam (Manhattan).
While we are having a yard sale, I just want to mention that there are a lot of ethnic Italians and Portuguese in Rhode Island, and that it would be a shame if a bidding war broke out.

If I see "s1e6", I think, "7 bits is a weird size for a floating point number, but ok. I wonder what the exponent offset is?"
Then I wonder why they are talking about a tv show.

We have no health insurance subsidies, and we have Bronze level insurance because there is no Lead or Tin level.
Our monthly bill just increased $500 for two people.

I wrote section 230 to protect user speech, not a company's own speech. I've long said AI chatbot outputs are not protected by 230 and that it is not a close call. Given that the Trump administration is going to the mat to protect pedophiles, states should step in to hold Musk and X accountable.
I am not a Section 230 expert but being that Twitter is creating and publishing these photos I wonder if they actually have any civil legal protection? @kenwhite.bsky.social ? @akivamcohen.bsky.social ?
What X is allowing Grok to do is unlawful or regulatory-illegal in multiple jurisdictions, creates clear DSA violations, and continues despite regulator scrutiny. The images do not need to be pornographic, non-consensual sexualised or intimate depictions are enough.

1) Putin is protesting Venezuela takeover as a cover for his Venezuela for Ukraine trade.
2) Nobody with a real financial interest actually wants Venezuelan oil fields. They aren't economic. Grandpa is confused. Putin sold Trump a moldy buggywhip factory.

We should think of Grok as Elon Musk's fancy printer.
Elon Musk's fancy printer is printing child sexual abuse material. Elin Musk's printer printed a note saying the printer apologized.
Elon is in jail because he printed CSAM on his printer. Duh.
