probably the single best proof that substack is a fascist platform

“Reuters examined the data from the Gaza Health Ministry to look more closely at those who have died. It found that more than one-fifth of those killed in the territory were children under the age of 12. More than 1,200 families were completely wiped out”

Just me and my laptop sharing a quiet moment

If you want to understand how people and publications are trying to shift and pivot on Gaza… The Atlantic on killing kids in Gaza a year ago (left) The Atlantic on killing kids in Gaza now (right)

We're ready for Microsoft Recall and the automatic screenshots it takes of everything on your desktop. Signal Desktop on Windows now includes support for a new "Screen security" feature designed to block screenshots of your Signal chats. signal.org/blog/signal-...

It's not the speeches that scare them it's the standing ovations

Brug gerne et minut på at se denne!

Going to start calling Sam Altman "Sloppenheimer"

I literally made this joke throughout Trump’s first term: that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi could have avoided being killed by the US if he’d offered to build a Trump Tower in Raqqa. I was joking. And yet:

Democrats just flipped the Omaha mayor's office with ads like this. The right-wing obsession with genitals is starting to backfire.

Q&A from a talk I gave last week. Q: "What do you think is the biggest threat in cybersecurity right now? Is it post-quantum computing? Is it AI?" A: Fascism. It's fascism.

I've got an amazing story about this one. Let me tell you all about how "If you've done nothing wrong you've got nothing to worry about" almost got me charged with unlawful possession of a minigun. 1/?

NEW: I obtained two internal Google reports that indicate the company has little control over Project Nimbus, its contract with the Israeli gov/military, and is largely in the dark about how it's being used. theintercept.com/2025/05/12/g...

For everyone who was like “Google search is getting worse,” we were absolutely right.

Who's up for some petty kitchen-consumer snark?

Maybe DOGE can save some money by cutting the F/A-18 submarine program.

Summarise this document into bullet points. Now tell me how to understand bullet points. Translate bullet points into simple pictograms, now describe the pictograms in words of one syllable. Now convert the inchoate noises I make in response to the pictograms into a masters thesis, honours level.

The last on-duty homicide of a detention and deportation officer was 1949. The last time there was even a non-COVID death on duty was 2016, when an officer had a heart attack during a foot pursuit. Before that, a training accident in 2003, then a fall down an elevator shaft at a jail in 1975.

Verdens mest provokerende citat: "Jeg har noteret, at der alligevel er en bekymring for, at der ikke er tid nok til at diskutere lovforslagets substans. Samtidig er der rejst en del kritik af lovforslaget. Noget af det bygger på misforståelser, og noget af det bygger på politisk uenighed"

New from 404 Media: TeleMessage, the Signal clone used by the Trump admin that was hacked, deleted a video describing how system worked. We've published a transcript of it here to preserve TeleMessage's claims around its security, inc. claim of end-to-end encryption www.404media.co/signal-clone...

TANK vs TESLA "We've crushed fascism before and we'll crush it again" - ⁠WW2 veteran Ken, 98, in the tank

Some notes on the aesthetics of the second Trump term. Its accompanying artistic movement is grotesque slop. Slop for the slop god www.404media.co/the-ai-slop-...

Despite misleading marketing, Israeli company TeleMessage, used by Trump officials, can access plaintext chat logs. My findings are based on TM SGNL's source code, and they are corroborated by hacked data micahflee.com/despite-misl...

There are people I know in the national security community who are terrified that the US government is sleepwalking into a 9/11-level catastrophe. Focusing finite resources on nonsense like this instead of credible threats -- that is the reason they're so worried. www.wsj.com/world/greenl...

New from 404 Media: the Signal clone the Trump administration uses was just hacked. TeleMessage makes a modified version of Signal that archives messages for government agencies, Waltz used it. A hacker got some users' messages, group chats. Hugely significant breach www.404media.co/the-signal-c...

The next generation will absolutely not believe how good pre-AI Google was.

Another day another Israeli massacre. Fatima Hassouna, who had been documenting war in Gaza for 18 months and was subject of new documentary, killed along with 10 members of her family www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

Brennan tager fejl her som sædvanlig. Grunden til Donald Trump vandt i 2016 var valgmandskollegiet, en institution konstrueret til at begrænse det folkelige demokrati. Hans basis er milliardærer, ikke massebevægelser. Problemet her er oligarki ikke demokrati 1/

I'm halfway through this article & like (and agree with) the points made thus far. But I want to have an aside on how people uncritically use the term "foundation models" & "reasoning," when it is very likely that the models memorized all these benchmarks. 🧵 prospect.org/power/2025-0...

Would appreciate some intrepid journalists finding out and publishing the names of every tech company involved in any part of this www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

Murder prediction AI will create a dangerous, criminalising loop. This tech repackages flawed police data as neutral. Then replicates itself. The existing over-policing of racialised, low income and migrant communities will be hardwired into police operations. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

A slide about the death toll in Gaza “could be perceived as antisemitic.”

"AI can never fail, it can only be failed" seems to be the fallacy taking root in some tech circles. It's not that AI sucks, it's that all of us smooth-brained Luddites who just don’t *get* it www.cnn.com/2025/03/27/t...

Pokemon Go sale to a Saudi Arabian company owned by govt comes with six separate corporate announcement blogs, not one of them directly addressing what happens to 100 million people's location data, AR mapping capabilities, or the AI maps they have been training: www.404media.co/saudi-arabia...
