🧵In my expert opinion as a researcher of vehicle ramming attacks, what has been publicly described in the video evidence does not support the claim that Renee Nicole Good was attempting a deliberate ramming attack when she was shot in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. 1/7

"It would be hard, but not impossible, to try the ICE shooter on state charges and obtain a state-law conviction that Trump couldn’t wipe away. It might seem like the longest shot in the world, but honestly, we have to try something, anything, to stop this — not just in Minnesota, but everywhere."
Renee Good's killer can and must be prosecuted
Doing nothing is not an option.

ICE agents killing people in the streets. The naked extortion of a sovereign state. The National Guard unleashed in American cities. The Justice Department weaponized to prosecute political opponents.

The tyranny is on full display — and it's waking America up.

Apple and Google have previously removed apps providing nudify services from their app stores.

So why havent they taken action against X and Grok?

Two-party parliaments are not nearly diverse enough in the long term. Australia's duopoly is once again colluding to squash independents. It mustn't stand.

@davidzipper.bsky.social's thorough dismantling of enthusiasts' and industry claims of self-driving car safety.

tl;dr there's nuance and none of seems to be positive for Waymo et al. 🚩
Sorry, but triumphant claims about autonomous vehicle safety are wildly exaggerated.

It's an open question whether today’s self-driving cars are any safer than those driven by humans.

And if reducing crashes is the goal, that isn’t even the right question.

My deep dive, in Bloomberg 🧵
We Still Don’t Know if Robotaxis Are Safer Than Human Drivers
And even if self-driving technology proves to be less dangerous, there are many better ways to improve traffic safety and prevent fatal crashes.

Ok, dus de kritiek is dat China niet snel genoeg hernieuwbare energy installeert?

Ok. Dan begrijp ik je.
Een van de eigenaardigheden is de gedachte van sommigen dat China het wat betreft hernieuwbare energie zoveel beter doet dan de EU. Welnee !

Hadn’t seen this one before. The good news is that we have many smart solutions to address the surrendering of cities to cars that don’t involve tire spikes. But they DO involve actual political will, strengthened by public understanding of the serious need to act. Via @xkcd.com

A paper used to be somewhat of a proxy to help trust that the author knew their stuff. With AI governing the writing process where are we -the reader- meant to find the basis for this trust? Thin air?
