This talk by @anildash is over 10 years old, but still remains relevant. The issues he raises have been even more exacerbated, thanks to platforms walling off their user's content from the open web such that they can sell it to "AI" companies.

The Israel Land Authority is set to seize the land on which UNRWA’s headquarters lie in occupied East Jerusalem to build housing for illegal settlers.

According to information released today, the UNRWA headquarters are set to be converted into 1,440 housing units.

Israel has lobbied hard to have UNRWA closed as it is the only UN agency to have a specific mandate to look after the basic needs of Palestinian refugees.

Bose spent years developing an electromagnetic car suspension system that looked like a magic-carpet like ride. While a technical success it was unfortunately a commercial flop due to it's higher production costs. youtube.com/watch?v=3KPYIaks1U…

Makes me wonder what kind of technological advancements we could have but don't because it wasn't economically worth it.

WoW, that’s a novel way to attract young Democratic voters.

The latest tactic in Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign feels directly inspired by TikTok’s Subway Surfers attention stimulation gimmick.

Tim Walz’s Arizona rally yesterday was broadcast on the campaign’s Twitch account in a split-screen view, with commentary and live World of Warcraft gameplay provided by streamer Preheat playing alongside it.

“A drunken, groping misogynist”

When Trump got Brett Kavanaugh elected for the Supreme Court, there were many rumours about his drunkenness and sexual misconduct. But several senators confirmed his nomination citing an FBI report, which showed the FBI found no evidence against Kavanaugh.

However, the real reason the FBI report was so watered down was, Trump prevented the FBI from investigating 4,500 tips from people calling in to warn about the undignified judge.

Some really good thinking in here from @julian, am going to have to read more fully when I'm more awake, but I like what I've seen so far community.nodebb.org/post/1013…


"Donald Trump, the man who never misses a chance to scream about putting 'America First,' is selling 'God Bless the USA' Bibles that were printed in China.

For $3 a pop, these Bibles were shipped from a factory in Hangzhou, China to be sold to Americans for $60 each. Donald has spent years bashing China for supposedly stealing American jobs and undermining the economy."

From a business point of view, this isn't a bad idea. Maybe in a certain way, he actually is a clever businessman.

#Gaza #Palestine

Staff from the European Union in Brussels on Thursday protested Israeli attacks on Gaza.

Nearly 100 staff members gathered in front of the EU Commission, carrying banners reading "EU staff for peace and justice."

They denounced Israel’s attacks on Palestinian civilians, particularly women and children.

EU workers also called on member countries to stop arms trade with Israel and cancel the EU-Israel Association Agreement.
