More than 400 RCMP members accused of misconduct
More than 400 members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police were accused of misconduct in 2024, leading to at least 20 dismissals and resignations.
According to the RCMP, it logged 443 cases of alleged misconduct in 2024 involving 408 employees. Nearly one quarter of these cases resulted in “serious” disciplinary measures, such as being declared ineligible for promotion or being forced to forfeit more than 80 hours of pay. Ten RCMP employees were also demoted to a lower rank or level, which was more than double the number of demotions made over the previous two years.
Five per cent of the misconduct cases, or approximately 22, resulted in termination or direction to resign, which was the most severe consequence. Over 70 per cent of cases led to remedial or corrective measures such as special training, close supervision or deferred promotions.
The misconduct cases were revealed in the RCMP’s Report on the Management of the RCMP Conduct Process, which was quietly released on Jan. 21. The report from Canada’s federal police force covers the 2024 calendar year.

Well, it's progress. We used to promote them and put them in charge of standards and training.
Honestly, this could be a good thing. It may look like more misconduct is happening, but it also could be the same amount as always. Only now it's coming to light and being dealt with.
ACAB, but maybe, just maybe, there's a little bit of light on the horizon?

Windows' UX is shit.
Windows 11 still has its settings splattered across multiple applications. The Settings application has all the shiny new gimmicks they added, yet still lacks any way to change some basic settings. If you need to reset a local user's password, you're stuck going back into the now-gutted Control Panel to do it. And if you want to change something that Microsoft feels the average user shouldn't be allowed to know exists, you're using the group policy editor to do it.
Or, how about the way that there's at least two applications installed by default that do the same or very similar things? Windows Media Player or Videos? Paint or Paint 3D? Cmd.exe or Windows Terminal?
How about the design language inconsistency? The Run dialog was left looking like a Windows 7 dialog and didn't get a dark mode until the mid 2020s. The Event Viewer and Windows Firewall UIs are still something right out of Windows XP, but with Vista-smeared paint applied on top.
Or, if that's not bad UX, then how about the ads in the start menu? Or how OneDrive tries to trick you into uploading your desktop to the cloud? Or, maybe all the telemetry services running in the background and slowing shit down?
If you're using a distro with a worse UX than that, then that's on you. There's plenty of options that provide a more cohesive UX than Windows
To be fair, the UI Control Panel of Windows has become more and more fragmented. Windows 11 is slowly transitioning different settings into the Settings App. It's going slow and I have no idea if Microsoft will ever finish the job. When Windows 11 was first released, Settings had so many shortcuts to Control Panel elements that it was totally useless. My thoughts (hope) are that Windows 11 is what Windows Vista was - a transition that would be a bloody mess - and at some point Windows 12 will come and people will like it because they reintroduce elements that people miss and fix some of these inconsistencies.
But how things are run, it will probably be filled with even more reasons to ditch Windows.
What this whole thing has taught me is that there is a market among billionaires for someone to peddle enslaved kids.
Now epstein is gone, and has been for years, but that demand doesn't just die. I don't have proof, but there is zero doubt in my mind that epstein is not a one and done. There's either another epstein, or more likely a dozen smaller epsteins out there.
There's a part of me that thinks all these ICE abducting kids is being done at trumps order, specifically as a means to replace epstein.
Your point reminds me of the logic behind certain religious psychologies that see this world not as an end in itself, but as a proving ground or a purgatorial space. Its morality is sometimes inverted for a higher, otherworldly purpose.
Take public execution in medieval Christian Europe. While a spectacle of deterrence, some theologians (like Nicholas of Cusa aka who I picture rubbing my rod at night) grappled with a darker rationale: that the intense physical pain of burning could serve as a form of accelerated penance. The idea was that this suffering might pay the temporal debt of sin before death, potentially sparing the soul a longer, more severe punishment in the afterlife. The executioner, in this context, was performing an act of supposed spiritual charity, which is actually why executioners were often clergy or faith oriented men.
This mirrors,the core doctrine of Frankism, an 18th-century Jewish heretical movement. Frankists believed in 'redemption through sin.' Their goal was at times personal regret, but a cosmological acquisition of a higher knowledge. The pleasure or suffering of the sinner was incidental to this divine path to regret and penance.
We see a third variant in groups like ISIS. When they stoned Muslims for adultery, it was framed as enacting divine law to purify the community and offer the sinner ritual atonement. When they cut the throats of Western captives, the logic switched entirely to theater of terror, a spectacle for global distancing (stay in your country, as a result of the frequent invasions of countries from west asia), but also because in Islam, the act of cutting through the neck artery is seen as a quick and painless death. It causes death quickly because oxygen output runs out very fast and is why it is the mandatory way of making meat halal, part of it is to use a quick, simple and relatively painless death.
The unifying, and strangely rational, thread is this: when reality is viewed through an eschatological or cosmological lens, worldly concepts of pleasure, pain, and even morality become secondary. Acts are judged not by their immediate human cost, but by their function in a grand narrative of spiritual war, purification, or redemption. It's a logic that operates on a plane completely separate from humanist rationale because humans are not the end all be all.
Qanon was correct in the same way your conspiracy theorist uncle was right about MKULTRA. There's a quick summary that can give a pretty big overlap of them and reality, but that's not why these people believe this, and the more details, context, or scope you add the less they align.
Qanon is an intellectual descendant of the satanic panic, and the framing it uses is very much in that line of thinking. It's framing it as political enemies raping young children as part of a dark ritual that involves blood libel.
The Epstein situation in contrast is that the rich, powerful, and influential run in overlapping social circles and within them there are people whose role is to facilitate connections (Peter Thiel actually facilitates a similar role). These people may also facilitate other connections like drugs (there's so much drugs in the Epstein stories) and pimping. The pimping for the elite, at least by one of these people, also seemed to disproportionately traffic adolescents and many of the rich, powerful, and influential clients, friends, and connections of this man seemed to either partake in his underage victims or knowingly look the other way in order to maintain these beneficial connections.
Both of these are very bad things involving the rich and powerful engaging in pedophilia, but the former is utterly fantastical and originates in a panic with no evidence and itself lacks evidence, while the latter is a realistic situation that has a lot of evidence for it
It's quite interesting. My great grandmother apparently used to talk about the Roman Catholics abusing children and mothers in the Magdalene Laundries and people saw her as a crazy conspiracy theorist.
Squid Game in a way is also a story about the rich elite participating in sickening immoral activities
Beyond just the pedophilia, his (Epstein) operation was largely one of socialising, and securing (probably coerced) introductions from people he helped facilitate and now held blackmail over.
e.g. using blackmail material on a Bill Gates to secure an introduction to another wealthy and influential individual, offering them a “massage” and then producing kompromat at a later date to bring them into his circle.
Now don’t get me wrong, everyone who found themselves in this position was a willing participant, not a victim - but I can understand how so many oligarchs eventually found their way into his little black book.
Noam Chomsky, that's what broke my faith in humanity. His work in linguistics is why I'm a computer scientist, his work in political activism was my introduction to leftist theory, so much of what I do and think every day is directly influenced by his work.
Turns out at the end of the day he's a neo-liberal apartheid supporting hypocrite and possibly a pedophile.
Pre 2008 conviction contacts can be excused by ignorance. E.g. Stephen Hawking visited Epstein Island with other scientists in 2006.
Gates was happy to make house visits to Epstein in 2011-2014
There were also single contact people that can be explained by Epstein operating a honeypot. If he could worked with you, he would get blackmail on you. And then you get scenes like this in The Simpsons after Matt Groening's name appeared on the flight list.

Something that the society achieved in the last 150 years are two dogmas:
- 5/7 8 hours workweek is a maximum
- people before 18 should not have sex with people after 18
I'm kinda glad that questioning these puts one into a category of weirdos.

very important to share here.
unfortunately I've heard similar phrasings and ideas expressed by 20- and 30-something year olds in the gaming community.
still has me feeling unwell.
As much as people fucking hate when this line gets rolled out and for good reason.
There's a reason chronophilia is a term. Infantophilia, pedophilia, hebephilia, ephebophilia, teleiopholia, mesophilia and gerontophilia. Are all different things.
Actually properly respecting, and using correct terminology can and should be a thing as it prevents unreasonable harm in instances where things are perfectly fine.
For example a 18 year old ephebophile. That's fucking normal, even tho in the eyes of the law it's punished as a sex crime. A 18 year old and a 17 year old with a 6 month gap gets fucked because we don't actually take into account logic when it comes to this topic.
So that 18 year old is now a "pedophile" a term with horrid implications and life defining punishments legally and socially just because we all refuse to actually educate ourselves of the terminology and actual research on the topic.
Because the word pedo has such a huge social negative (for good reason) that we basically just all collectively go stupid as fuck and go straight to the worse punishment we can with out ever considering logic.
It also makes further research into the topic absurdly hard to do and secure funding for. Because of the massive social problems with attaching your name to such research.
Cause even researching it can result in you being attacked. There's been a number of instances iv seen where research on the topic dead ends because no one is willing to actually attach their name to the subject. Or when something gets published it gets dragged through the mud because it's a easy headline.
So we never actually find healthy and effective methods to deal with the problem. We just attack, mislabel, don't think and cause more harm by not actually trying to deal with it. Because the problem is "icky".
Jpeg XL is such an unsexy name though. (In my opinion) JPEG is already seen as an ancient format, there are plenty of even main stream memes about it's artifacting quirks. And now you just want to slap more stuff on it? Make it extra large. Sounds like bloat to me!
To be real for a second; I'm sure it's a fine format and suited for the future, but the name really does put me off it a bit 😄
but the personal life of the person who made it should not be a factor at all.
The data windows collects about you goes in the hands of people involved in a pedo sexual abuse scandal. You should be indeed concerned
You would in fact be severely limited if you only used products made entirely by people who are ‘perfect’ in every way.

Basically, Epstein was the manager of Putin's wealth.

cyberdaily.au/security/13164-j…
techcrunch.com/2026/01/30/info…
Epstein had some connection to REDACTED from MIT Media Lab and I think that’s Joi Ito.
Epstein tried repeatedly to set up a meeting to sell Putin on the idea of bitcoin in 2014.
That particular meeting fell apart, because Epstein realized it would look terrible to visit Putin so soon after the shootdown of MH17. But I wouldn't be shocked if they did successfully meet sometime later.
Some people have joked that the only practical use case for bitcoin is to make financial crimes much easier. But what if that's not a bug, but a feature? Perhaps the whole objective of bitcoin's invention was to make financial crimes easier for Putin and the Russian mob.
Ito introduced Epstein to Jeremy Rubin (core bitcoin dev), which turned into Epstein directly funding Rubin. Search for "Jeremy Rubin" in the files and you'll find checks to him, docs about the formation of "Deploy Capital LLC", potentially backed with Peter Thiel who was trying to invest in Level One and Bitmain. Iozzo was involved in that stuff too: justice.gov/epstein/files/Data…
So if that's all true, is bitcoin just a bunch of Putin's money? Nothing here is conclusive, but it isn't so far fetched anymore, either.
But suddenly, this bizzare email exchange makes some sense. Epstein and Ito were panicking about the feds tracking down Putin's wealth, because they knew following the money would lead right back to them.
Also, now we might know where Epstein got his mystery billions! Because they weren't his billions, they were Putin's.

Firefox's AI Kill Switch Lands in Firefox Nightly, Slated for Firefox 148
Mozilla finally landed today the long-anticipated AI Kill Switch controls for Firefox, which let users strip the open-source web browser of any AI-powered features, and you can test it right now in Firefox Nightly.In December 2025, when Mozilla appointed its new CEO, the company developing the popular Firefox web browser revealed that it was working on an AI kill switch that would let users completely disable all the AI features that had been included in the past few releases, estranging more and more loyal users.
Now, the AI kill switch is finally a reality as it landed today with the latest Firefox Nightly update. The implementation is called “AI Controls” and can be found in Firefox’s settings as a standalone section. From there, users can toggle a setting called “Block AI Enhancements” to remove any AI features.

I want a more efficient public sector, just cutting top line costs with no regard does not make it more efficient.
Banning Microsoft laggardly software would be one thing. They've built a walled garden and they want you to use it, and that's at the expense of better tools that do get the job done faster/easier/better. Eliminating make-work jobs would be good. Dumping seniority rules in the union would be good.
And you know what else: hire a full time per-department dedicated digital service. No, centralized isn't good enough. No, contracts aren't good enough.
Software is not a business. It is a strategy and a requirement. Our government needs to grow up and act like it, but it's infested with tech-illiterate boomers. Stop the endless rounds of dependency gathering to try to get one solution that does it all with one mega contract, and endless red-tape legal barriers that make it impossible for non-US mega-corp contractors to get contracts.
A dedicated digital service would always meet requirements because they would be involved in them. It must be embedded inside departments for continuous feedback and iteration, no other model works, ever. It needs to pay competitively, and acknowledge the fact that there are thousands of tech workers like me would never meet the insane public sector hoops, or deal with the low pay scale, or the large amounts of bureaucracy.
Last year I actually looked into how I could help either the government or the armed forces, and basically, I am not "qualified" for any of their listings, despite over a decade of experience and delivering hundreds of projects.
It's asinine.
I agree with this comment on unions AND contractors (though not all). I think the problem is when service becomes a game or grift and not actually being efficient.
City of Toronto was one of the worst performing unions in most sectors and stank of corruption and over employment, and then on the other side you have MetroLinx which has been one of the biggest wastes of money a government has ever seen.
Then on the flip side you have Parks Canada and the National Archives doing amazing work with limited budgets.
I know with Toronto the culture came from the top, but these days I think contract farming and middle management bloat is what is really killing efficiency.
Also let the damn people work from home.
Can KDE Tile Windows Like PopOS?
I've been using Linux for a over a decade, but haven't used anything Gnomey in a while. I gave PopOS another try the other day because I needed a simple distro to put on a home PC for my partner to use. This is the most usable Gnome distro I have ever found!
I won't be switching myself anytime soon, but I really like the way the tiles on Cosmic expand to always keep the screen full. I know KDE can tile using shortcuts, but have ant of you come across something on KDE that autoresizes the tiles like Pop does?

Auster likes this.
Just to clarify: the "much smoother" is subjective and might be an oversimplification, but the "not using Gnome" part is correct.
Personally I don't use any Gnome extensions and have much preferred Cosmic to the old Pop Shell. YMMV.
Cosmic runs its own window manager called cosmic-comp, whereas Gnome uses Mutter. The tiling is baked into the Cosmic window manager, whereas you'd need to use an extension to get the same functionality on Gnome.
Glad to hear you're liking it, though! While I currently use Gnome with the PaperWM extension, Mutter is frustratingly behind on some current WM improvements (without good reason, IMO).
If you enjoy the tiling aspects, check out similar projects like Niri, as their window management shares some of the same codebase! Lots of neat projects out there, these days.

I've never used it but since it's basically a kwin script I'd bet you can change them in system settings, like in system settings -> keyboard -> keyboard shortcuts -> Window management (or however it is named in english) -> look up for krohnite
E: Or maybe, just maybe, in its entry in the Kwin scripts section - System settings -> Window management (or however it is named in english) -> Kwin scripts -> Krohnite -> Click or tap the cog button -> maybe there should be something related to keyboard shortcuts
Yeah, and you don't have to know which fork to choose. Only the compatible fork will show up in the search.
(I was going to recommend that, but had something in the back of head, that you needed a manual step to enable the configuration. But I just saw that this is described in the Plasma 5 version, not the Plasma 6 fork, so I guess, it's not necessary anymore...)
Well, PopOS is a distribution, based on Ubuntu, shipping a desktop. That desktop was formerly a customized GNOME, now they have their completely own desktop environment.
The tiling might be similar between both but their GNOME extension is probably deprecated now.
Cosmic has dynamic tiling, while KDE has many manual tiling features which may be less efficient but require nearly no setup.
I believe, that's something which became impossible with Wayland?
But it wasn't very good under X11 either. Even back then, it was much less clunky to use the various KWin scripts, which offer tiling. Well, and by now Plasma has built-in semi-automatic tiling, which those scripts basically just configure, so they do now feel quite smooth.
Yes, Krohnkite on KDE auto-resizes window tiles and keeps the screen full. It's a default setting (monocular view) but can also be turned off.
To use krohnkite you can add it from within KDE - go to Settings > Window Management > KWin Scripts. Then top right select "Get New..." and type K in the search box and it'll be one of the top options.
It works well but you may need to log out and and back in after enabling it to see some of the changes. Also you will probably want to change other KDE panels and layouts to fit how you want to use the desktop in a tiling set up (and there are plenty of widgets available and window animations to add - like Geometry - if you want to a specific tiling set up and look).
KDE is incredibly customisable, but for tiling it may take a little work to get it exactly where you want it. Also worth backing up your settings folders once you've got it how you want it (Konsave for example, or manually)
Wow, wow, wow, wow. So much to unpack here. I'm laughing to keep from crying that this is a real take...
