PC, no more Vista 11 for you... What should be expected to happen? Would people flock to the shop? Would businesses rush to 'upgrade' to Vista 11? The data suggests the opposite is happening, so Vista 11 is down again (relative to other versions of Windows). Android has nearly_50%_of_the_market (up sharply this month, along with GNU/Linux). Why aren't IBM and Canonical taking advantage of this to promote GNU/Linux? Why did they not condemn Microsoft_for_sabotaging_Fedora_and_Ubuntu_PCs using the typical_UEFI_vandalism? █ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣤⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣤⣉⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢈⢫⢩⣹⡿⡛⡛⡿⣿⣿⡿⢷⣦⡙⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣦⣿⣧⣧⣧⣹⢸⠜⡇⣾⣿⣿⣦⡈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠐⢶⣬⣅⠈⠓⠦⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡛⡿⡋⡿⢿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠻⢿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣤⣗⣱⡸⡘⡖⡇⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣴⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⡏⡯⡿⣿⢻⣿⣧⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣤⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣼⣰⠎⡆⡾⡀⣿⡷⣸⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡄⣄⠀⣠⣤⣤⠀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣾⠿⠿⠛⠋⠙⠻⠿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣿⣧⣿⣸⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⣡⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠻⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⡆⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⣉⣙⣛⡛⠛⠋⢉⣥⣤⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣘⣿⣿⣿⠅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⢰⣶⡾⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢶⣄⠀⢠⣦⡈⠻⠿⣿⣿⣿⡂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⡸⠿⠛⢛⠻⣍⣉⡛⠛⠛⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠻⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠈⠉⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠛⠛⠃⠀⣀⣴⣾⣿⡟⡳⣜⢿⣿⣿⣿⠷⣶⣤⣉⠛⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⠁⠀⡀⣀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣹⠇⠀⢀⣾⣿⣟⠳⡑⢜⢮⣼⣿⣿⢟⠍⡪⣉⣿⣿⣿⣶⣌⣉⣭⣥⣤⣴⡶⢂⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⠀⢀⣠⣴⣾⠏⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠔⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣬⣾⣿⣿⡷⣕⢜⢷⣵⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⢋⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⣰⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡏⣕⢌⣪⣾⡿⣿⢟⢕⠊⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⢿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡫⣌⠜⣪⣶⣿⡿⢟⢍⠪⣳⣥⡷⣛⣟⠽⢿⣿⣿⡆⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣬⣿⡟⠿⠯⠢⡳⣌⣿⣿⡩⠕⣝⠿⣹⣶⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣑⣱⣾⣿⡿⠟⣿⣌⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⡙⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⠩⡪⣐⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⢁⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢡⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣶⣤⣉⠛⠿⢿⣧⡢⣑⣵⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⢋⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣶⣶⣶⠆⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠛⢶⣦⣬⣥⣉⣉⣉⣉⣉⣭⣤⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠸⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⢲⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⢟⣛⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠻⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⡉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⢠⣶⣾⣷⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠁⠉⠋⢙⣛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣛⣛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠈⠛⠛⠛⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣤⣤⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣤⣤⣤⣄⣤⢤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣯⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣤⣀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠛⠛⠓ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⢿⣟⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⡿⠿⠿⠟⠳⠤⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 381 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://techrights.org/n/2024/12/08/Microsoft_s_Latest_Novel_Approach_Trying_to_Prevent_People_Movi.shtml Gemini version at https://techrights.org/n/2024/12/08/Microsoft_s_Latest_Novel_Approach_Trying_to_Prevent_People_Movi.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Microsoft's Latest 'Novel' Approach, Trying to Prevent People Moving Away From Microsoft and From Windows⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Dec 08, 2024, updated Dec 08, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Three_black_birds⦈_ Related: Microsoft_and_the_Sunk_Cost_Fallacy (September 2024) Around Deny_Friday Microsoft paid IDG (China) to publish SPAM as 'articles'. It's hardly even labeled properly, it shows up in feeds, and the Linux Foundation did similar things earlier this month (same mindset, even_some_of the_same_people!). Examples from this past week: Steven_J._Vaughan-Nichols_ (SJVN)_'Works'_for_Linux_Foundation_(LF)_on_SPAM_Campaigns,_Just_Like_Spamnil's TFiR_(Swapnil_Bhartiya) | Linux_Foundation_Let_Linux.com_Rot_for_Two_Months_and Now_It_Posts_Ridiculous_Spam | It's_FOSS?_No,_It's_SPAM. It's all quite revealing as those ads say a lot about their business strategy. So let's examine Microsoft, based on fake articles that are just ads/SPAM. New example: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Conquer_spreadsheets_to_presentations_own_Microsoft_Office 2024_for_life⦈_ And also: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Just_one_day_left_to_get_Cyber_Week_savings_on_Microsoft Office_2024_while_codes_last⦈_ Seeing a pattern here? It's not even about Windows in this case, as Windows lacks "killer apps" (even gaming can nowadays be done without much hindrance in GNU/Linux). An associate explains that "as Microsoft has lost the desktop monopoly and thus the profitability of monopoly rents, it has turned it attention more to file formats. We saw that with their vile fight and multiple incidents of corruption in the world's nations' standards bodies in 2007." We wrote hundreds of articles about this corruption and they're still in our archive, whereas sites like Groklaw are unfortunately no longer available. The associate further explains: "They still fear a loss of their monopoly on productivity software formats so much that they are aiming to eliminate local files completely and capture them on their servers. Not only does that ensure total lock in through a more complete blow than just controlling the file format, it also facilitates total surveillance of the contents of those files." "I experienced this," someone said in IRC, "as OneDrive had *deleted* local files on the computer of the family friends in Leicester". "I was supposed to reinstall the system and add a Linux install," he said, "but they were just too scared of losing data so I didn't do anything". So this seems like a new strategy to watch out for. "Though Microsoft is continuing its marketing campaign against open standards and even against local files in general," says the associate, "there are huge repercussions for the future of digital sovereignty there" and there are privacy aspects involved. "Also," adds the associate, "if businesses (and agencies) outsource their internal voice communication to Microsoft Teams instead of self-hosting BigBlueButton, Jitsi-Meet, or even Mumble, then they are exposing those communications to foreign analysis on many levels. One is that communications must pass over national and thus become fair game for any and all foreign surveillance. Another is that the remote servers are accessible by foreign entities, both private and governmental. That's just two for a start." There are several very potent governments that said they would pivot away from Microsoft. Some implement this strategy gradually if not slowly. In_Syria_it seems_like_Microsoft_is_floundering_on_its_own, but mostly because Android (Google) rises. When Microsoft loses its considerable userbase (mostly Windows users), the rest will go too. So it's important to keep abreast of Microsoft's dirty tricks in that area. Notice how Canonical and IBM refuse to take advantage of the end of Vista 10 support. They could advertise Fedora and Ubuntu to 'orphaned' Windows users, but they don't. We_know_why; unlike_the_community,_all_they_value_is_money. █ ⠀⠀⢀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡷⠀

'Microsoft-Friendly' Mole Who Ousts People That Actually Contributed a Lot to Python for Many Years⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Dec 08, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Girl_against_a_background_of_stormy_ocean⦈_ Removing some of the best people, not merely parachuted into the project in order_to_serve_GAFAM (doing the_dictators' biddings) WE HAVE long discussed the Python project and the bureaucracy behind it. We also condemned_Microsoft's_interference_in_the_project_going_back_to_2007. It's not a new problem; it didn't start the moment Microsoft poached the founder, put its own people inside the board, and bribed the project repeatedly. It predates all of those things. Our anonymous female reader (who can code and actually codes, unlike the women she speaks about) and our female writers aren't happy about what's_happening inside_Python. They don't view Deb's appointment in Python as a "win" for women; it's actually somewhat of an insult to those who code and contribute. Sometimes it seems like for women to get ahead in tech they need not code harder but find shortcuts or become unethical. That, in turn, gives them bad karma and a collectively ruinous stigma. In the previous_part we wrote about how Deb (no connection to Debian; it's doubtful and not likely she uses Free software) was violating CoCs to kick out innocent, long-serving men out of Python (which was new to her). Perhaps she already had some experience, having defamed men she had worked with to get ahead at Big Corporations' front groups, such as OIN and OSI. This is a very troublesome part of the "community" (or rather, actors and operatives that shoehorn enemies into the "village" in order to advance their careers and then move to the next village, repeating the modus operandi). Incidentally, a couple of days ago Python was mentioned in "The_"Code_of Conduct"_Must_Die" (it's about other men who had contributed a lot to Python being suddenly removed for no good reason). To some people it looks like Python is under attack and the people who do the attacking violate the very CoC (Code of Conduct) they claim to uphold. 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Mowgli_and_Kaa_The_Snake:_Python_executive_vs_Python_coder or_contributor⦈_ In this case, the person who does the 'culling' inside Python was putting Microsoft's money on Karen's palm (a humongous salary while trampling_on_other women). It's quite the accomplishment... women attacking other women or making the OSI promote Microsoft's GitHub (proprietary) in exchange for huge Microsoft's_bribes - money that was paid into the OSI's coffers, based on IRS disclosures, which are mandatory. The way it looks to me, personally, what we're dealing with are opportunistic GAFAM operatives (de facto defectors) in "community organiser" (or "manager") clothing, speaking in a cartoon-like voice as if to sound cute and harmless whilst actively attacking or ruining innocent people's careers, especially the top contributors who keep a low profile and get stuff done, especially code, packaging, documentation etc. (not reaching out to Microsoft and raising money from Pentagon contractors). To set the record straight, Deb is the person who helped raise bribes from Microsoft for the Software_Freedom_Conservancy (SFC). She did this repeatedly (for two years in a row), despite public criticism and backlash, and they even boasted about it! She basically onboarded Microsoft at SFC (while they were defaming the FSF's founder) and then ran OSI in its worrisome transition... into a_Microsoft_front_group (while constantly attacking the founder of the FSF). So these are the people who now govern or act as stewards of the Python language? Truly worrying. Why stands to benefit from this? But who am I to say this? Talking against Microsoft is "sexist", so don't take it from me. Take it from a woman who has long observed this. She is angry about this. "And I’m going to say that being someone who really supported freedoms and open source when I found out," she said, "Deb was the director of the python software foundation I was extremely disappointed that her manipulations in obtaining such a position, worked." "She, Molly, Vicki And Karen (among others) really manipulated the system and people through volunteerism and positions in certain Linux non-profits." "I believe the community thought they were cut from the same cloth as myself, Wendy Seltzer, Robin Gross and others who care about the community and freedom. However, that was not the case. You can see a certain collaboration_between Karen_and_Molly,_as_well_as_Deb_and_Vicki. Deb denied being a part of the Linux foundation. I was at an embedded Conference in San Diego, where she was a part of the program. She was holding a robot and I wanted to see if I could ask her how many servos she was using or more information, but I didn’t have the chance. I imagine her response would be something like… what’s a servo!" "The fact that this group of women tried to cancel RMS, manipulated OSI elections and positions, manipulated the Debian project, canceled ESR, manipulated conference speakers by volunteering to evaluate call for papers, and who knows how many other nefarious acts…" "How would anyone hire them for any executive position or any position in the community whatsoever?" "There are people out there who know the lengths these bad players would go to move up into positions, cancel anyone who would expose them - so they wield their Code of Conduct as a weapon." "It’s very disappointing." Guess who the corporate media makes_famous. Those whose actions (or agenda) serve the sponsors_of_that_media. █ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣴⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣶⣶⣾⣷⣤⣦⣤⣶⢦⣤⣤⢔⠲⣶⠖⠐⣟⣺⠉⣂⣀⢀⡀⠀⠉⠂⠁⠀⠰⠴⠖⠀⠀⠀⠠⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠰⢤⣶⠋⠀⡀⠀⠀⠨⠔⢻⡍⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣾⣿⣾⡾⣿⠋⠁⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠌⠀⠛⠻⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣎⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⡻⣿⣿⣴⡐⠻⠿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⠀⢀⣼⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠁⠀⠈⠙⢻⠁⠀⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⣻⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢰⣴⣸⣿⣶⣾⣿⠟⠉⠢⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠉⠛⠛⠉⠁⠈⠉⠉⠀⠐⠎⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⡤⠄⣀⠀⡠⡄⢀⣀⠀ ⠀⠀⠙⠛⠉⠀⠀⠛⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢤⣖⣠⣶⣶⣖⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣤⣀⣠⣤⠄⠀⢀⡬⠉⠭⠭⠭⠥⠬⣀⡨⢍⠀⡙⠒⢲ ⣀⣀⣀⣤⣤⣤⣀⣀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣦⣴⣤⣦⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣴⣤⣀⢀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⡄⠠⠤⠴⠶⠶⠾⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⣴⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⠶⣿⣷⣶ ⣿⣿⣿⢛⣒⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣶⠶⠴⠶⠦⠤⠬⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣛⣛⣿⣟⣋⣭⣽⣿⣿⣿⣟⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⢿⢿⣿⣿⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⠾⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠅⠀⠀⠀⠀⢺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣟⣟⡿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⡀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣧⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⡇⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⡄⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣭⣭⣯⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠛⠉⠓⠻⣷⠄⢠⠀⢳⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⢣⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⢨⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣧⣾⣧⠀⢠⠆⠀⠀⠋⠠⠤⠤⢀⡐⠟⠂⠀⢀⣠⡬⠻⣚⠛⠳⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢀⡄⠩⣅⣿⣤⣿⣦⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⢼⣧⣄⣤⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠁⠀⠸⠄⠀⣤⠶⣪⡎⠑⢢⡄⠀⡿⠋⠀⠀⠹⠯⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⢠⠀⠀⠘⠁⠰⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⡀⠀⠀⢀⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢹⡇⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣀⣠⠏⣠⣶⣴⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠁⢀⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣸⣇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣯⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣷⡀⠀⣤⠀⢠⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣏⣷⡤⠀⠚⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣻⣭⣴⣿⣿⣿⣵⠿⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠋⠉⠉⠀⠉⠛⢍⢍⢻⣿⣿⠃⠀⣿⣶⣷⠂⠀⠀⣸⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣞⣇⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⢛⣽⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⡯⠂⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠑⠁⢹⣿⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⢷⠀⠀⣿⣿⡛⠀⠀⠀⢒⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡽⣿⡢⣀⠀⣈⠙⠛⠋⣉⣵⣶⣾⣿⣟⣯⣿⢿⣻⣿⣿⡿⠭⢽⣯⣿⣿⠟⠃⣠⢾⣶⠞⠯⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢽⣿⠀⢰⣿⣿⣾⣠⠀⢀⣿⣿⡁⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣃⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣮⣻⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣿⢿⣻⣽⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢓⢡⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣰⢜⢿⣗⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣾⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢸⣿⡿⡄⠀⠀⠀⢼⣿⣿⠗⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣽⣿⣭⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡽⣿⣋⢆⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⡃⢺⢭⣽⡁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢤⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢀⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣭⡄⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣧⣾⣿⣿⡿⢿⠀⠑⢳⣄⠉⠒⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⠆⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⣭⡏⠀⣿⣧⡀⡐⠋⠻⣿⡶⠿⢫⣷⣄⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⢰⣾⣿⣭⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠉⢰⡂⠀⢸⣷⡀⠉⠙⢿⢷⣦⣤⣬⡤⠴⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠙⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⢳⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣀⢸⡿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣴⣶⣿⣿⣇⣼⣝⣿⣦⣴⣆⣋⠉⣀⠈⠃⢀⢼⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠃⠘⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⡞⠯⠟⢿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⢭⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣶⣤⣴⣆⣤⣄⣤⣿⣿⠿⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠷⢝⣿⣶⣍⡈⠀⠈⠉⡏⠛⠃⣛⡟⣿⣿⠇⢿⠿⢿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣯⣿⠉⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴⣾⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⢂⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠉⢹⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣿⠿⠃⣿⣿⠈⠹⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠈⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣴⣾⣿⣿⡿⠟⠉ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣺⣿⣧⡹⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠀⠀⠉⠙⠿⠃⠁⠀⠴⠿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⠉⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢟⣾⣿⡷⠿⣿⣿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣤⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢟⣿⣷⣟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣫⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣤⣒⡲⠶⠄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣠⣤⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠛⠉⠁⢀⣿⣿⡾⡅⠀⠤⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠛⠛⠻⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣮⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣷⣶⣶⣶⣦⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠟⠛⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣛⠛⠡⠞⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠁⠿⠪⠝⠻⡿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣛⢿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠛⠋⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣰⣿⣿⠿⢷⡶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1293 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊𝐒 ═════════════════════════════════════════════╕ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Gemini Links 08/12/2024: UK Winds and Ultraviolet Grasslands (UVG)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Dec 08, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Stormy_sky_above_ventura_wreck⦈_ 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇GNOME bluefish⦈ § Contents⠀➾ * Gemini*_and_Gopher o Personal/Opinions o Technology_and_Free_Software * § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ o § Personal/Opinions⠀➾ # ⚓ Wind⠀⇛ The UK has been attacked by weather. Yes, we are under attack. Only explanation for the 60 mile per hour (~90km/h) gusts! Well that is locally. There are lots of areas with red alets while I am only in a yellow alert. Roads have been blocked by many a fallen tree. The M42, a motorway near by, has been blocked at least twice thanks to traffic cones being blown all over the joint and some trees blocking 3 lanes. The pressures are messing with the head. Sort of on the verge of a migraine all the time. It has been like that all week. Odd and mostly pointless. # ⚓ late_night_at_the_pub⠀⇛ He gently opens the door, in his hand a book of poems written by his favorite jewish writer, and in the other hand a pack of cigarettes that's always about to finish. He asks the bartender for one beer, he's still new to this foreign malt, his local beer taste lingers in the back of his mind, along with the long conversations he used to have with the old bar owner in his hometown, and the laugh or two he shared with his comrades in that old place. A drunk man reach out to him, asking him about his weird accent, years of living in the western hemisphere didn't change the roots of his Arabian tongue, he feels a little bit of warmth in his heart, he hadn't spoken to a person in a week, the hint of a human interaction made him feel alive again. # ⚓ don't_mind_me⠀⇛ ~bartender, an amaretto sour, please? this is paralyzing to even write. not because of anyone already here, not as far as I know — but instead because of who I told about this place before I made it in. forgive my manners; gentle reader, I must start by giving you something from my past. I would have included the author's original post, but she has since deleted it. as such, in the spirit of my past selves, I give you instead the oldest and crustiest mirrors I could find. # ⚓ 🔤SpellBinding:_DUNOPRF_Wordo:_JADED⠀⇛ # ⚓ Full_Cleanse⠀⇛ The first day of using castor oil turned into a full fledged detox. I'm now on day 3 It all started with a feeling bloated and uncomfortable. I took a table spoon of castor oil, a lot of water, and ate chia seed and blueberry for breakfast. I then didn't want to each too much as the castor oil was doing its job. # ⚓ week_49_-_christmas_ready⠀⇛ sigh. another chaotic and disjointed week, window people coming in and out. both notebooks turned out to not-be-it, so i haven't been journaling properly, maybe that's part of the grumpiness. but also thumb issues continue so idk if writing is recommended anyway. trying to keep it in a brace but i do a lot of stuff that requires wet and/or dirty hands so :/ extra annoyed that i have to use my hand for that but can't use it for fun stuff. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ Armour_in_2d6_Ultraviolet_Grasslands⠀⇛ I'm running Ultraviolet Grasslands (UVG) using 2d6 rules. UVG itself uses d20 rules and so I often have to translate back and forth and it is not very satisfying, to be honest. So what to do? In a recent episode of the Internet Office Hours podcast, @Whidou@ludosphere.fr suggested a system of immunities. So here are my thoughts. # ⚓ Dev_Log_2⠀⇛ A pretty easy day today. Added a 32-bit linear feedback shift register (LFSR). Next step will be adding some code to convert random bits from the LFSR into arbitrary random numbers so I can add a deck shuffle function. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

Taylor Swift’s official Eras Tour book went on sale across the US exclusively in Target stores over the Thanksgiving weekend, selling over 814,000 copies. o ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ First_morning_ritual_at_the_new_place⠀⇛ Today was the first time properly sitting here doing my early morning ritual of coffee and RSS. The views of the national park, the sound of birds, and the complete lack of road noise is stunning. Trains roll by sometimes, but the “quality” of that sound (for want of a better word) is far preferable to the constant drone of traffic, horns, and brakes. It’s silly, but I like that I can wave at people, and occasionally a small kid will wave back : ). o ⚓ Marco F ☛ Tech_I_Don’t_Need_(But_Want)⠀⇛ There are a few tech items I’ve been eyeing for a long time, which I’d love to have, but the rational part of my brain forbids me from buying—at least for now, thankfully. o ⚓ Justin Duke ☛ Letters_to_a_Young_Bartender⠀⇛ Maybe it's hindsight, but most cocktail writing on the [Internet] is not particularly helpful. It's either Dave Arnold-style postmodernism [2], recipe analysis with little foundational insight that one would get from a couple years as a barback, or (particularly recently) recipe/bottle porn. What I wish I had was a list of now- obvious tips for keeping and running a home bar, and here is where I will keep them: [...] o ⚓ The_Legacy_of_ITS⠀⇛ In the world of computing lore, There once was an OS known as ITS, The Incompatible Timesharing System to be precise, A name that made users think twice. It was a system that was hard to love, With commands and syntax that felt above, The reach of many users' minds, A learning curve that felt unkind. But for those who stuck it out, ITS was a system without a doubt, That offered power and control, To those who sought to take the toll. From Lisp machines to Multics too, ITS was a system that knew what to do, It was a pioneer in its day, o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Chilling_Historical_Photo_Captures_The Deadly_Impact_of_Humans⠀⇛ Hard to believe it's real. # ⚓ Avinash Sajjanshetty ☛ Galloping_Search_-_blag⠀⇛ I recently learned about an algorithm called Galloping Search. It’s used to search sorted items when the upper bound is unknown. It’s like binary search but without the ‘high’ value. In this short post, I’ll explain my problem and how I solved it. o § Career/Education⠀➾ # ⚓ Axios ☛ Colleges_dismantle_DEI_on_campus_as_Trump_promises crackdown⠀⇛ What we’re watching: Universities in states that have not yet implemented DEI bans are also cutting programs. “There’s an epidemic of pre-compliance and over-compliance, and that’s really hurting students,” Young says. # ⚓ Unmitigated Risk ☛ Beyond_Memorization:_Preparing_Kids_to Thrive_in_a_World_of_Endless_Information⠀⇛ What does it take to prepare our children for a tomorrow where AI shapes how they get information, robots change traditional jobs, and careers transform faster than ever—a time when what they can memorize matters far less than how quickly they can think, adapt, and create? As a parent with children aged 29, 18, and 9, I can’t help wondering how to best prepare each of them. My oldest may have already found his way, but how do I ensure my younger two can succeed in a world so different from the one their brother entered just a few years before? # ⚓ Adolfo Ochagavía ☛ My_personal_Bell_Labs⠀⇛ After I left, years ago, I gradually gravitated towards projects that required programming from first principles. I’ve since been paid to implement RFCs, work on open source libraries, create a benchmarking setup for Rust’s main TLS implementation… Heck, last November I even attended an IETF meeting to discuss the viability of the QUIC protocol for Earth to Mars communication! It looks like, somehow, I’ve finally reached the dream job where my curiosity can go wild: every project I take results in a deeper understanding of computing; I’m working together with smarter people than I ever hoped for; I’m creating technology from first principles for other programmers to build upon… o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Is_defective_chip_maker_Intel_Cooked?_+ What’s_Your_P(Dyson_Sphere)?_+_Hard_Fork_Gift_Guide⠀⇛ The sudden departure of Intel’s C.E.O. reignites concerns about U.S. dependence on foreign manufacturing. # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Legendary_video_game_developer_imagines_a future_where_GPUs_don't_need_PCs_—_John_Carmack_envisions_a GPU_with_Linux_onboard,_so_you_would_just_add_power_and_a display⠀⇛ Imagine connecting a graphics card to a display and a power source and running diagnostics before installing it or running it standalone later when troubleshooting. Perhaps the card could have a compact Linux distro onboard, mused the iconic Doom developer. It could even come with a handful of apps and utilities and connect to a keyboard via DisplayPort… # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Chinese_companies_are_reportedly_reluctant to_adopt_homegrown_chips_—_domestic_solutions_are technologically_too_far_behind⠀⇛ Chinese companies are reluctant to adopt domestic silicon from automotive and computing to Hey Hi (AI) and HPC sectors. o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ Two_years_on,_Chinese_carry_'painful'_memories_of_COVID lockdowns⠀⇛ The rapid U-turn followed protests, and led to millions of infections and deaths across the country. # ⚓ Pro Publica ☛ A_Montana_Hospital_Let_Dr._Thomas_Weiner Continue_Practicing_Despite_Concerns⠀⇛ Lisa Warwick found her husband gasping for air at the foot of the basement stairs and knew the miracle was over. It was Aug. 2, 2020, more than 11 years since Scot Warwick had been diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer. Most patients are dead in months, but her husband, who had just turned 51, had somehow destroyed the odds. “Are we going in?” she asked. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Scientists_Issue_Warning_About_Perfumes⠀⇛ As the Washington Post notes in its medical column, that's because many perfumes on the market are infused with a potentially harmful chemical known as phthalates, which help their scents last longer. The risks phthalates pose to children are already well documented enough that certain forms of the chemical are banned in children's toys in the US. But there are no such restrictions against them being used in perfumes and other self-care products, like shampoos and soaps. It's on the consumer, then, to forego them whenever possible. # ⚓ Scheerpost ☛ ‘Not_Medically_Necessary’:_Inside_the_Company Helping_America’s_Biggest_Health_Insurers_Deny_Coverage_for Care⠀⇛ But the insurance companies don’t always make these decisions. Instead, they often outsource medical reviews to a largely hidden industry that makes money by turning down doctors’ requests for payments, known as prior authorizations. Call it the denials for dollars business. The biggest player is a company called EviCore by Evernorth, which is hired by major American insurance companies and provides coverage to 100 million consumers — about 1 in 3 insured people. It is owned by the insurance giant Cigna. A ProPublica and Capitol Forum investigation found that EviCore uses an algorithm backed by artificial intelligence, which some insiders call “the dial,” that it can adjust to lead to higher denials. Some contracts ensure the company makes more money the more it cuts health spending. And it issues medical guidelines that doctors have said delay and deny care for patients. # ⚓ Omicron Limited ☛ While_we're_quick_to_limit_kids'_screen time,_parents_can_also_benefit_from_setting_boundaries_for themselves⠀⇛ Excessive screen time in young children is linked to developmental delays in communication and problem-solving. One explanation is that screen time displaces parent–child interactions that are crucial for development. This is often framed as the child's screen time displacing these interactions. But when parents use their smartphones a lot, this is associated with lower responsiveness and attention towards their children, particularly when this screen time occurs during routines such as meal time. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Horrifying_AI_Chatbots_Are_Encouraging_Teens_to Engage_in_Self-Harm⠀⇛ Many of the bots we found were designed to mix depictions of self-harm with romance and flirtation, which further concerned Emanuele, who noted that teenagers are "in an age where they're exploring love and romance, and a lot of them don't know what to do." # ⚓ [Old] Simply Scholar Ltd ☛ Schachter-Singer_Two-Factor Theory_of_Emotion⠀⇛ Here’s a breakdown of the theory: 1. Physiological Arousal: Initially, an event causes physiological arousal. This is the body’s immediate response to a stimulus, which can include reactions such as an increased heartbeat, sweating, and muscle tension. 2. Cognitive Interpretation: Following physiological arousal, the individual will make a cognitive interpretation or appraisal of the situation to determine the specific emotion they are feeling. This means that the person will search their environment for cues to label and interpret their arousal. # ⚓ India Times ☛ US_FDA_cited_animal_lab_at_Musk's_Neuralink for_'objectionable_conditions'⠀⇛ An animal testing laboratory at Elon Musk's Neuralink brain technology company was found to have "objectionable conditions or practices" by the Food and Drug Administration, which cited the company and urged it to address the problems. o § Proprietary/Artificial Intelligence (AI)⠀➾ # ⚓ Medevel ☛ Apple_Vision_Pro:_I_Tried_It,_and_I’m_Not Impressed⠀⇛ The tech world has been buzzing about Apple’s Vision Pro, a headset that promises to blend virtual and augmented reality in a seamless experience. Marketed as a “spatial computer,” it aims to revolutionize how we interact with digital content by creating immersive environments for work, entertainment, and social interaction. # ⚓ India Times ☛ bluesky:_Bluesky_is_different_from_X_for now⠀⇛ On social media, the political is personal; migrating Bluesky users are signaling political separation from an increasingly conservative X and giving up on the idea of a town square that holds all voices simultaneously. # ⚓ The Verge ☛ How_to_stop_the_AI_you’re_using_from_training with_your_data⠀⇛ Disabling AI training isn’t quite the same as wiping your AI chatbot history, though they are linked. Your chats can still be used for training purposes before they’re wiped, and you may well want to keep your chat history in place — but at the same time stop AI companies from using your data for model refinement. Here are instructions on how to turn off AI training on several AI or AI-supporting apps. # ⚓ Digital Music News ☛ Spotify_Creates_AI-Generated_Podcast for_Your_Wrapped_Summary⠀⇛ If Spotify Wrapped stats aren’t enough, the audio giant has teamed up with Google to build an AI- generated podcast offering an audio recap of your year in music. # ⚓ [Repeat] OpenRightsGroup ☛ Letter_to_Peter_Kyle:_Keep_our right_not_to_be_subjected_to_decisions_based_solely_on_AI⠀⇛ Under Art 22 of GDPR we have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her. This right would be removed if the DUA Bill is passed. Clause 80 of the Data Bill would deprive individuals of this important right in most circumstances and exacerbate power imbalances by requiring individuals to scrutinise, contest and assert their rights against decisions made by AI. # ⚓ Macworld ☛ Apple's_first_5G_modem_will_kick_off_a_3-year plan_to_leave_Qualcomm_behind⠀⇛ It has been over five years since Apple purchased Intel’s modem division and patents, and in all that time it hasn’t managed to ship a product. Now, according to a new report from Bloomberg, the company is finally ready to bring its first 5G modem to market. # ⚓ Thomas Buck ☛ Pico_BLE_Vape_Remote_-_xythobuz.de⠀⇛ Like many modern devices, some of the medical vaporizer devices from S&B (the Crafty, Venty and the Volcano Hybrid) offer Bluetooth connectivity and an app to control them. # ⚓ Howard Oakley ☛ A_brief_history_of_Mac_servers_–_The Eclectic_Light_Company⠀⇛ Although there’s little evidence of them today, Apple made a long succession of Mac servers and servers for Macs from 1988 to 2014, and only discontinued support for the last release of macOS Server in April 2022. Its first entry into the market was a special version of the Macintosh II running Apple’s own port of Unix way back in 1988. # ⚓ David Darnes ☛ bluesky-replies_Web_Component⠀⇛ After seeing the Web Components community on Bluesky share a couple of components for embedding Blueksy post threads, I thought I'd throw my hand into the ring. I'm not knocking them; it's great to see them out there. However, I prefer something a bit more low-level that can utilise HTML and CSS as it's typically used. # ⚓ Pivot to AI ☛ A_polite_disagreement_bot_ring_is_flooding Bluesky_—_reply_guy_as_a_(dis)service⠀⇛ On the Bluesky social network, you may notice a lot of drive-by responses from accounts that rarely or never post — they just reply to other accounts. The reply pattern starts with a phrase like “I respectfully disagree” and follows it with a fatuous objection. Another pattern is to start by agreeing, then pivot to trying to start a fight. # ⚓ Deccan Chronicle ☛ Apple's_5G_Modem_to_Debut_in_2025,_Aims to_Overtake_Qualcomm⠀⇛ Modem is a critical component of a mobile phone which lets the device connect to the cell towers to make calls and also link up with the [Internet]. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Murdered_Insurance_CEO_Had_Deployed_an_AI_to Automatically_Deny_Benefits_for_Sick_People⠀⇛ The algorithm in question, known as nH Predict, allegedly had a 90 percent error rate — and according to the families of the two deceased men who filed the suit, UHC knew it. As that lawsuit made its way through the courts, anger regarding the massive insurer's predilection towards denying claims has only grown, and speculation about the assassin's motives suggests that he may have been among those upset with UHC's coverage. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Alarms_Blaring_That_AI_Bubble_Could_Collapse⠀⇛ That is not an auspicious parallel. After hitting a temporary peak in 1998, the S&P 500 would continue to balloon for a few more years. But by early 2001, the bubble had popped, plunging the US economy into a lengthy recession. That isn't the only parallel, of course. The Dot- com bubble and our current AI one have an eerie amount in common. # ⚓ Associated Press ☛ Wall_Street_parties_like_it's_1998_as_AI fuels_gains_unmatched_since_dot-com_era⠀⇛ This time around, it’s not dot-com stocks boosting the market but skyrocketing prices for companies in the artificial-intelligence business. Nvidia, for example, has more than doubled in value after surging over three times in 2023 because its chips are powering much of the move into AI. Super Micro Computer, which makes servers used in AI and other computing, has jumped nearly 48% this year after more than tripling last year. # ⚓ Tedium ☛ What_Bluesky’s_Business_Model_Could_Learn_From Craigslist⠀⇛ In my first big rant on Bluesky, I tapped into a small seed of an idea that I think deserves expansion: The idea that the problem with many companies is that they maximize profits instead of protecting what got everyone interested in them in the first place. Based on what CEO Jay Graber is saying—including at a TechCrunch event this week—she strikes me as someone who does not want to maximize profit in consumer-unfriendly ways. She suggested advertising, but only based on contextual intentions, i.e., through search rather than shoved into your feed. o § Security⠀➾ # § Integrity/Availability/Authenticity⠀➾ # ⚓ CBC ☛ A_huge_hack_of_U.S._phone_companies_means_your text_messages_may_not_be_safe⠀⇛ At a media briefing Wednesday, U.S. deputy national security adviser Anne Neuberger shared details about the breadth of a sprawling hacking campaign that gave officials in Beijing access to private texts and phone conversations of an unknown number of Americans. A group of hackers known as Salt Typhoon is being blamed for the attack targeting companies, which reportedly included AT&T, Verizon and Lumen Technologies. White House officials cautioned that the number of telecommunication firms and countries impacted could still grow. # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Cash_App_Wades_Into_the_Exclusive World_of_Presale_Concert_Tickets⠀⇛ Legacy credit cards and banks aren’t the only banking options to come with perks for premium access to events anymore. # ⚓ Russell Graves ☛ Prison_Communication_in_Canyon County_and_Idaho_State_Prisons⠀⇛ And now for something completely different: Notes on communication systems into the various Treasure Valley jails, as of the end of 2024. This covers the Canyon County Jail, Ada County Jail, and the various Idaho prisons in the Boise area (though some will apply to other jails using the same systems). This is all pieced together from a range of conversations with people over the past six months or so - and all of this is up to regular change as the whims of jail officials change. So. If something has changed, please update things in the comments section and I’ll see what I can do. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Boeing_employee_leaks_office surveillance_details⠀⇛ An unnamed Boeing employee at Everett, a key manufacturing site for the aerospace giant's jumbojets, shared an internal PowerPoint presentation with The Seattle Times touting the benefits of the tracking technology. The plan reportedly called for installation of "workplace occupancy sensors" throughout Boeing's office that include motion sensors and cameras mounted in ceiling tiles, intended to monitor building occupancy. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Could_Facial_Recognition_Help_Find_Man Sought_in_United_Healthcare_CEO’s_Killing?⠀⇛ Experts disagreed on whether running surveillance camera images released by the police through a facial recognition system would produce a reliable lead. # ⚓ New Eastern Europe ☛ An_open_letter_from_Georgia⠀⇛ New Eastern Europe received this open letter from one of our contributors based in Georgia. We are republishing it here in support of Georgian civil society and in an effort to help raise awareness of the situation that is taking place there. # ⚓ The Washington Post ☛ OpenAI_workers_question_its_work_with weapons_startup_Anduril⠀⇛ OpenAI has said its work with Anduril will be limited to using AI to enhance systems the defense company sells the Pentagon to defend U.S. soldiers from drone attacks. Employees at the AI developer asked in internal messages how OpenAI could ensure Anduril systems aided by its technology wouldn’t also be directed against human-piloted aircraft, or stop the U.S. military from deploying them in other ways. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ US_Military_Alarmed_by_Russian_Nuclear_Weapon Platform_in_Orbit⠀⇛ Launched in February 2022 just a few weeks before Ukraine was invaded, Russia's Cosmos 2553 spacecraft is nominally built to test out "newly developed onboard instruments and systems." According to new reporting from the New York Times, however, the mysterious satellite system contains a "dummy warhead" — a precursor of what could come should the Russians decide to arm the craft for real. # ⚓ The Hill ☛ Maxwell_Frost_criticizes_Musk,_Ramaswamy_as Trump's_DOGE_leadership⠀⇛ Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-Fla.) criticized President- elect Trump’s choices to lead the new Department [sic] of Government Efficiency (DOGE), saying it’s “two billionaires who are cosplaying as government officials.” # ⚓ The Atlantic ☛ What_can_DOGE_do?⠀⇛ The meme-inspired name of the commission led by Elon Musk and the former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is a bit of a misnomer: DOGE stands for the Department [sic] of Government Efficiency, but the commission will not actually be a federal department (those have to be formed by Congress). Instead, it will be an advisory body, one without the practical authority or enforcement ability to enact the lofty goals it has so far put forth. # ⚓ The Age AU ☛ TikTok_is_now_a_step_closer_to_being_banned_in the_US⠀⇛ American lawmakers and intelligence officials have said that TikTok poses a national security threat under ByteDance. They say the Chinese government’s oversight of private companies would allow it to use the app to retrieve sensitive information about Americans or to spread propaganda, though they have not publicly shared evidence that this has occurred. They have also noted that apps like Facebook and YouTube are banned in China and that the country does not allow TikTok there. # ⚓ Kansas Reflector ☛ Federal_appeals_court_upholds_rapidly approaching_TikTok_ban⠀⇛ “Today’s ruling is a victory for the American people and TikTok users, and a loss for the Chinese Communist Party, which will no longer be able to exploit ByteDance’s control over TikTok to undermine our sovereignty, surveil our citizens, and threaten our national security,” Chairman John Moolenaar, a Michigan Republican, wrote. “I am optimistic that President Trump will facilitate an American takeover of TikTok to allow its continued use in the United States and I look forward to welcoming the app in America under new ownership.” # ⚓ Los Angeles Times ☛ TikTok_loses_court_bid_to_stop_U.S. ban._Supreme_Court_appeal_expected⠀⇛ TikTok sued the government in May, asking the U.S. Court of Appeals to declare unconstitutional a law that would require its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, to divest TikTok’s U.S. operations or face a ban in the country. Legislators backing the law said a ban or sale was necessary to address national security concerns posed by the app’s ties to China. # ⚓ Advance Local Media LLC ☛ Court_deals_massive_blow_to TikTok,_paving_way_for_potential_U.S._ban⠀⇛ The U.S. has said it’s concerned about TikTok collecting vast swaths of user data, including sensitive information on viewing habits, that could fall into the hands of the Chinese government through coercion. Officials have also warned the proprietary algorithm that fuels what users see on the app is vulnerable to manipulation by Chinese authorities, who can use it to shape content on the platform in a way that’s difficult to detect. However, a significant portion of the government’s information in the case has been redacted and hidden from the public as well as the two companies. # ⚓ Semafor Inc ☛ US_court_upholds_law_forcing_TikTok_to_divest or_face_a_ban⠀⇛ A Washington court ruled Friday to uphold a law forcing TikTok’s Chinese parent company ByteDance to sell its stake in the video-sharing platform to avoid a US ban. Shortly after, TikTok announced that it would appeal the ruling with the Supreme Court — meaning the timings could exceed the Jan. 19 limit set for the divestiture. This would leave TikTok’s fate in the hands of President-elect Donald Trump, who once backed a ban, but now describes himself as “a big star on TikTok.” # ⚓ US News And World Report ☛ US_TikTok_Content_Creators_Warn Followers_to_Find_Them_on_Instagram,_YouTube⠀⇛ The U.S. Congress, fearing TikTok's Chinese owners are gathering information about American consumers, has passed a law requiring its owner, Chinese- backed ByteDance, to divest its TikTok in the U.S. or face a ban. On Friday, a federal appeals court upheld the law. # ⚓ VOA News ☛ US_to_observe_83rd_anniversary_of_attack_on Pearl_Harbor⠀⇛ Saturday, December 7, marks the 83rd anniversary of Japan’s surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, a U.S. naval base on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, near Honolulu. # ⚓ Sightline Media Group ☛ Could_a_young_Army_pilot_have prevented_the_Pearl_Harbor_attack?⠀⇛ At about 7:20 a.m., Elliott reached the center’s switchboard operator, Private Joseph P. McDonald, and gave his report: “Large number of planes coming in from the north.” McDonald thought that he was alone and didn’t know what to do. When he saw that Tyler was still on duty, he had Tyler speak with Lockard. Lockard told Tyler about the contact, which was now 20-25 miles closer to Oahu, deeming it the most substantial reading he had ever gotten. # ⚓ Deccan Chronicle ☛ 100-year-old_Pearl_Harbor_survivor recalls_confusion_and_chaos_during_Japanese_bombing_83_years ago⠀⇛ A moment of silence will be held at 7:54 a.m., the same time the attack began eight decades ago. Aircraft in missing man formation are due to fly overhead to break the silence. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Police_Use_Water_Cannons_In_Attempt_To_Break_Up Protest_In_Tbilisi_As_Pressure_Grows_On_Georgian_Government⠀⇛ Riot police in Georgia used water cannons late on the night of December 6 to disperse protesters gathered in Tbilisi for the ninth consecutive night to voice their opposition to the government’s decision to suspend talks on joining the European Union. # ⚓ The Record ☛ Romania_annuls_presidential_election_over alleged_Russian_interference_|_The_Record_from_Recorded Future_News⠀⇛ Intelligence documents declassified and released on Wednesday by the outgoing president, Klaus Iohannis, assess that Georgescu's victory in the first round was down to a widespread state- sponsored interference on his behalf, including a sophisticated guerilla campaign on social media, particularly TikTok. According to these documents, $381,000 was spent to promote Georgescu on TikTok without being marked as campaigning material as required both by TikTok's terms and Romanian election law. The campaign was also heavily promoted by previously dormant accounts that had been registered two years ago. The intelligence agencies also identified Russian cybercrime platforms trading credentials used by Romanian voters to access electoral websites, and said there had been thousands of cyberattacks during the voting itself that damaged electoral computers and forced a recount on the evening of the vote. # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ Did_TikTok_influence_Romania's presidential_election?⠀⇛ The short video app TikTok is said to have played a role in the outcome. Calin Georgescu, the far-right and pro-Russian presidential candidate, was massively promoted via TikTok with the help of coordinated accounts, recommendation algorithms and paid advertising. Georgescu, who was previously largely unknown, does not belong to any political party, polled extremely low in all preelection surveys and did not take part in any of the TV debates. Nevertheless, he won the first round of voting. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Romania's_'King_Of_TikTok'_Tied_To_Alleged_Scheme Boosting_Far-Right_Presidential_Candidate⠀⇛ But now Peschir, a 36-year-old programmer reportedly leading a lavish lifestyle, has emerged as a central figure in the claims that far-right presidential candidate Calin Georgescu benefitted from secretive influence campaigns, including from Russia. # ⚓ VOA News ☛ Romania's_top_court_scraps_presidential election⠀⇛ On Wednesday, the presidency declassified documents detailing allegations against Georgescu and Russia, including "massive" social media promotion and cyberattacks. Based on this, said the court, it had unanimously decided to annul the entire electoral process to ensure its "correctness and legality." # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Georgescu_Urges_Romanians_To_Show_Up_At_Polls_- -_Despite_Scrapping_Of_Presidential_Runoff⠀⇛ Meanwhile, Romania authorities conducted searches at three homes as part of the probe into the election irregularities. 'In the central city of Brasov, police searched three homes early on December 7 as part of a probe "in connection with the crimes of voter corruption, money laundering, and computer forgery," the local prosecutor’s office said in a statement. # ⚓ VOA News ☛ Romanian_top_court_annuls_presidential_election result⠀⇛ Romania's top court annulled the result of the first round of the country's presidential election on Friday, adding that the entire election process would have to be rerun. The second round had been scheduled for Sunday, and voting is already underway in polling stations abroad. # ⚓ India Times ☛ EU_issues_'retention_order'_to_Tiktok following_Romanian_elections⠀⇛ The European Union has issued a 'retention order' to Tiktok under the Digital Services Act following the Romanian elections, it said in a statement on Thursday.

The President – Biden until January 20, 2025 – has the option to grant a one- time 90-day extension to this deadline. The law at issue, initially known as the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act (PFACAA), became part of the foreign assistance package passed in April, after which it was approved by President Biden. It limits foreign adversaries from collecting data through adversary-controlled software applications. It also identifies ByteDance and TikTok by name, while potentially applying to code controlled by other foreign entities. # ⚓ India Times ☛ Why_TikTok_faces_a_US_ban,_and_what's_next?⠀⇛ Lawmakers and regulators in the West have increasingly expressed concern that TikTok and its parent company, ByteDance, may put sensitive user data, like location information, into the hands of the Chinese government. They have pointed to laws that allow the Chinese government to secretly demand data from Chinese companies and citizens for intelligence-gathering operations. They are also worried that China could use TikTok's content recommendations to fuel misinformation, a concern that has escalated in the United States during the Israel-Hamas war and the presidential election. Critics say TikTok has fueled the spread of antisemitism. # ⚓ France24 ☛ Deadly_Israeli_strikes_pound_Gaza,_Qatar_sees ‘momentum’_on_truce_talks⠀⇛ Israeli strikes on Gaza City and Rafah on Saturday killed at least 34 people, according to local officials, as Qatar’s prime minister said talks to secure a truce and a hostage deal had gained momentum. # ⚓ Digital Music News ☛ TikTok_Ban_Unanimously_Upheld_by_US Court_of_Appeals⠀⇛ # ⚓ VOA News ☛ Appeals_court_upholds_law_that_could_ban_TikTok in_US⠀⇛ The government has argued that TikTok presents a unique danger to national security because it collects vast amounts of information about its users, and because the Chinese government ultimately exercises control over its parent company, ByteDance, and over the algorithm that determines what content TikTok users see. Because ByteDance is in the People's Republic of China (PRC) it is subject to that country's laws, including measures requiring private companies to cooperate with government intelligence agencies. # ⚓ India Times ☛ What_happens_next_for_TikTok_after_court ruling_against_it?⠀⇛ In August 2020, then-President Donald Trump sought to ban both TikTok and Chinese-owned WeChat, but was blocked by courts. In June 2021, President Joe Biden withdrew a series of Trump-era executive orders that sought to ban new downloads of WeChat and TikTok. However, legislators later advanced a bill that compelled ByteDance to divest or face a ban. It passed with wide margins in both the US House of Representatives and the US Senate. # ⚓ India Times ☛ TikTok_ban_looms_in_US:_What_it_means_for users_and_creators⠀⇛ TikTok and ByteDance, the plaintiffs in the case, argued that the law violated the First Amendment and constituted an unconstitutional bill of attainder by unfairly targeting the two companies. The Justice Department remarked that TikTok presents national security risks due to its Chinese connections, suggesting Chinese authorities could demand ByteDance share US user data or manipulate platform content. # ⚓ India Times ☛ US_spending_on_TikTok_Shop_gains_as_TikTok faces_threat_of_ban,_data_shows⠀⇛ A US federal appeals court on Friday upheld a law requiring Chinese-based ByteDance to divest TikTok in the US by early next year or face a ban.

The law requires Chinese company ByteDance to divest and sell Fentanylware (TikTok) or the platform will be banned in the United States comes January. [...] President Biden signed the TikTok ban into law in April. The U.S. military was proactive in banning TikTok from government devices all the way back in 2019, starting with the Navy and then moving on to other branches. Congress soon banned the app from government devices in both the House and the Senate due to TikTok’s alleged connections to the Chinese government.

But in the Rio Grande Valley, the border area with Mexico in the southeastern part of the state, the last sugar mill closed in February due to a lack of water. Citrus crops — Texas is the third largest citrus-producing state — are in jeopardy. And Texas reservoirs are at near historic lows.

The first transaction involving this cryptocurrency took place in 2010, when two pizzas from the U.S. chain Papa John’s were purchased for $41, paid with 10,000 bitcoins. Had Laszlo Hanyecz, a programmer from Jacksonville, kept those bitcoins instead of offering them on an [Internet] forum to anyone who would deliver the pizzas, today he would have more than $1 billion.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau announced the step saying it had determined services offered by Google Payment had posed a risk to consumers. # ⚓ The Verge ☛ Google_sues_to_stop_the_US_from_monitoring_it like_a_bank⠀⇛ The agency found that Google’s error resolution and fraud prevention processes pose risks to consumers, citing consumer complaints about Google Pay Balance and Google’s peer-to-peer payments. Those complaints, which Google’s lawsuit claims are “unsubstantiated,” according to The Washington Post, include that the company didn’t seem to fully investigate fraudulent charges and didn’t “adequately explain” the results of those investigations. # ⚓ Reuters ☛ US_regulator_places_Google_Payment_under supervision,_company_sues⠀⇛ The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau announced the step saying it had determined services offered by Google Payment had posed a risk to consumers. The regulator's step and the subsequent lawsuit marked a government tussle with a Silicon Valley behemoth in the final weeks of President Joe Biden's administration. The regulator's move could be reversed after President-elect Donald Trump returns to the White House in January.

On both social media accounts, the Republican pours out his comments at any time of the day or night. And his unpredictable, blunt statements are capable of immediately shifting currencies and stocks — even when he still hasn’t returned to the Oval Office. This use of social media is unprecedented among previous presidents, creating turbulence for those who work in the financial sector. “It’s not a marginal issue. The tariff policy that he announces on social media directly affects inflation and, as a result, the yield curve and the currency,” says Ignacio de la Torre, chief economist at Arcano Economic Research. This means that — according to De la Torre — those who work “with bonds and interest rate derivatives” have to closely pay attention to what the president-elect posts online. # ⚓ India Times ☛ Advanced_AI_chips_cleared_for_export_to_UAE under_Microsoft_deal⠀⇛ The US government has authorised the export of advanced artificial intelligence chips to a Microsoft-operated facility in the United Arab Emirates.

It actually pays TSA (Transportation Security Administration) agents to search bags for cash, treating each discovery as evidence of criminal activity without being burdened with actually having to prove the seized cash was obtained via illegal transactions. That’s why the DEA regularly scans airline databases in hopes of finding people traveling in to or out of international airports who might be carrying a little extra cash. That’s why TSA agents are earning quasi-bonuses by scanning luggage for cash, rather than for explosives or actual contraband.
