Newsletter: Trump continues to dismantle crypto enforcement while expanding his personal crypto empire. Most recently, Trump has called the DOJ off cryptocurrency enforcement and dismantled the agency's crypto enforcement team. www.citationneeded.news/issue-81/

We can ban gender reassignment surgery. Why? Because Trump’s tariffs will make you a man. And when he backs down, that will make you a woman. by Jesse Watters

Considering fraud is the primary use of cryptocurrency, incredible news for the industry!

<3 @sentry.io. Never have I been happier to accept cookies.

Trump: When you ran out the healthy arms, you ran out of really healthy— they had great arms but they ran out. It’s called sports. It’s called baseball in particular and pitchers I guess you could say, really particular

Guess where they got their weird trade deficit math from?

My lord

Vivian Wilson is Teen Vogue’s special issue cover star. The 20-year-old estranged daughter of Elon Musk discusses her modeling and TV aspirations, unusual extended family, and what she describes as the “cartoonishly evil” Trump admin. Read the full interview here: www.teenvogue.com/story/vivian...

re: recent DOJ stuff, both things can be true: Google’s stewardship & market dominance of Chrome have had a detrimental effect on the internet, and there’s no path for its continued survival if it were to be spun out (and Mozilla’s too if search deals were to be banned) which would only hurt people.

"X is now an app that forcibly puts abhorrent content into users’ feeds and then rewards financially the people who were the most successful in producing it, egging them on to do it again and again" www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

It has to be said that fucking up your platform’s value so badly that you have to resort to bargain bin advertising *is* an achievement in its own right.

So apparently Google routinely substitutes search queries for different ones that are more profitable for the company — you just get less relevant results with no way of knowing that it’s happening and no way of opting out. www.wired.com/story/google... Should be big for the antitrust case as well.

This skeet brought to you by: new AutoFill prompt in iOS 17. Got logged out a while back and couldn’t be bothered to manually copy the password from my Mac for like an eighth time.

There's something really nice about listening to songs from your past you know extremely well. Like a warm blanket, every drum hit, every note so familiar and comforting.

This is bonkers. No rational person would stake their reputation on a conspiracy theorist sharing CSAM. Only validates that this — trafficking in conspiracies and far-right views — is *personal* for Musk.

To understand Musk's renewed obsession with X and focus on financial services, you REALLY need to understand the X/Confinity merger that became PayPal. And, particularly, the Peter Thiel-led coup that kicked Musk out as CEO/Chief Strategist. Here's how that happened. 1/

One of the most incredible things to me is despite its valuation and purported attention to user experience, Apple seems to skimp on dogfooding: moving just an inch out of the ideal ecosystem experience brings out so many unexpected behaviours and clear deficiencies.

A bucket of rats can be filled in one night!
