(5/11) Walmart, Whole Foods, and Kohls are switching to electronic shelf labels that can display dynamic prices. Kroger deployed them with Microsoft AI—a setup a 2024 Senate inquiry warned could enable “surge pricing” via facial recognition. (Kroger claims it will only lower prices.)

WATERBOARDING A CHILD?!?
Due to the lapse in Capitol's judgment over the original Broadway cast recording of Follies, I really don't have a definitive go-to recording (I've an amalgam of the OBCR & soundboard that suffices)
This one was the gateway—and while I don't listen to it as much as I used to, I'm so glad they came.

Meta is putting a "Name Tag" feature in Ray-Bans - facial recognition through the glasses' camera. You look at someone, AI tells you who they are.
In an internal document, the company wrote that the timing is good because civil society groups are busy with politics and won't cause problems.

Not sure whether I want to throw up or punch a wall.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Still insane to me that the GOP can gin up a moral panic about innocuous things like drag queen story time while we know Democrats would be eviscerated in the press if they ever started asking what the deal is with youth pastors getting arrested every week.
