Well, I finally got my hands on one of these things. Now to learn how to use it properly.

I'll post a video once I don't suck as much (don't hold your breath ๐Ÿ˜‹).

I watched what happened in Poland when a legitimate, democratically elected government tried to curb judicial independence. Could it happen in the US too?

This is really an important article. Also the bit that sticks in my mind is "Brandi Morin made a critical point during her speech. If the proportion of Indigenous people killed by police was put into the terms of the general population, it would equal 127 Canadians killed by police in two weeks."

My son is terrified of the "star gate" scene from 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), but loves the concept and the beauty of it.

So I made him an edit to emphasize the wonder of the journey rather than the anxiety, taking out the awesome Gyรถrgy Ligeti's music and David Bowman's frightened face, but keeping Douglas Trumbull's work and adding a Justice track because I'm in an electro rock mood at the moment ๐Ÿ˜Œ and the lyrics almost make sense in that context.

Didn't Musk 'steal' engineers' time from another company he's CEO of (Tesla) to look at twitter?
Did that company's board admonish him?
Musk treats all the companies as his personal playthings so the court seems to have been right.
in reply to Ars Technica

The question is whether he shared engineering talent, hardware, or tech between the two "off the books" as he did with Tesla. If so, they are not truly separate companies.
