I switched from Notability to Goodnotes a few months back and, though it took me a bit to "get" it, I'm really happy with it now.
I have different "notebooks" on certain subjects and insert papers into them where I can highlight/take notes in place. It's got OCR, so they're helpfully searchable, regardless of the quality of the file. It's like having a three ring binder, which old school me can appreciate.

During an interview with Al Jazeera, senior political analyst Marwan Bishara discussed the United States' ongoing support for Israel at the UN Security Council, highlighting that the US has repeatedly blocked resolutions aimed at providing humanitarian aid and ceasefires during the conflict in Gaza.
He noted that the death toll among Palestinians nears 42,000. Bishara emphasised that the US's actions suggest complicity in a genocide in Gaza.

Donald Trump’s bible racket tells you everything you need to know about Trump:
They cost Trump $3 each; he sells them for $60.
These “God Bless the USA” bibles are made in China.
They contain the Constitution, BUT, without the amendments that abolish slavery, provide equal protection under the law, establish the right to vote regardless of race, establish women’s right to vote and presidential term limits.

@anarchademic That stood out to me too. Here’s an article mentioning it: meidasnews.com/news/amendment-…
but it sounds like they base that on viewing youtube videos about it, so it’s not rigorously sourced.
I can’t help but hear “these god bless the USA bibles are made in china” in the Project Farm voice.
This is Merlin’s fault.
now I want a shootout to see which bible can withstand the most torque.

Huawei is starting to look unstoppable
US sanctions and political efforts have failed to kill Huawei, which now looks in much better health than its main western rivals.Iain Morris (Light Reading)
the article starts with this paragraph ☞
In a scene from the The Rings of Power, Amazon's lavish but somewhat unloved Lord of the Rings prequel, a mob of sword-wielding, scaly-faced orcs go at Sauron like a table of famished diners at a bloody steak. Seemingly vanquished, the wannabe Dark Lord pulls off a disappearing trick only to return as a misshapen tangle of black fibers, gorging on vermin and eventually people until he is rebuilt in human form, albeit unrecognizable.
