As we shall explain in the future (when the time is more suitable), he made a seriously tactless error because the court fees he paid (percentage of the claim's expected "worth") gave away that he was not serious and was all along trying to settle (he and his_American_litigation_buddy would, indeed, attempt_to_settle nearly_10_times! Even as recently as last_month!) and that the chosen barrister was very junior - a polite term for inexperienced - "with an eye on cost" (trying to cheapen the whole procedure), as the legal occupation might nonchalantly put it. This strategy was a giveaway as he could not afford the case (by_the_following_summer_he_would_have_to_ask_people/companies_for financial_help_with_the_case_on_at_least_three_occasions). In this short series we'll show how cost-saving moves ended up costing dearly and are still an agonising factor for Garrett. Is he willing to spend up to 2 million pounds litigating? And if so, who would fund this litigation aside from his and his friend's Sugar Daddies that promote slop plagiarism? Don't choose barristers/counsels based on price. Not in the situation where 1) they're unsuitable for the task; 2) the other side isn't gullible. Of course Garrett not being able to afford his own case is a key factor here; had he lost his claim, chasing him for costs would be close to impossible due to poverty (lawyers' fee driving him into debt) and being based in some faraway forest in another continent. One other very important aspect, as pointed out 2+ years, suing_him_for_defamation_would_be_pointless_as_enforcing_a_defamation verdict_from_the_UK_would_not_be_possible_in_the_US. █ * Links_25/08/2026:_"U.S._Marines_Cancel_Drill_With_South_Korea",_"UK_Prime Minister_Burnham_Arrives_in_Ukraine" * How_Many_Web_Requests_From_"Linux"... ⡿⠟⠛⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣇⣣⣀⣌⣀⣁⣇⣜⣀⣰⣀⣀⣎⣇⣀⣜⣠⣃⣡⣀⣰⣄⣀⣷⣆⣀⣾⣿⣧⣜⣋⠀⣟⣨⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣘⣃⣿⣯⣧⣽⣿⣿ ⡀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⡟⢻⡿⠿⣿⢻⠿⠿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⠿⠿⢿⢿⢿⡿⢿⡿⢿⠟⠿⡿⢻⠿⠿⡿⠿⡟⠿⠿⡿⢿⡿⡿⡿⢿⢿⣻⡟⠿⠿⢿⠿⣟⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⠿⡿⡿⢿⢿⠿⠿⢿⢿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣦⣤⣴⣿⣿⣷⣾⣶⣿⣼⣾⣶⣾⣶⣶⣶⣷⣶⣾⣿⣶⣶⢶⣾⣾⣶⣾⣷⢶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣷⢶⣶⣿⣶⣶⣾⣶⣾⡶⣾⢤⢽⣶⡶⣶⣶⣶⣿⡶⣶⣶⡾⣿⡶⣾⣷⣾⣶⣶⣷⣶⣷⣶⣶⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣀⣂⣢⣪⣃⣰⣖⣀⣻⣀⣐⣴⣆⣀⣧⣄⣶⣲⣸⣰⣠⣀⣸⣀⣀⣰⣆⣀⣀⣻⣸⣷⣀⣇⣀⣄⣒⣀⣶⣀⣸⣐⣜⣀⣇⣶⣈⣾⣂⣐⣜⣇⣠⣂⣀⣀⣀⣇⣠⣪⣺⣠⣀⣔⣀⣐⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠛⣻⠛⠋⠟⡛⠛⡏⡛⡟⠋⠛⠛⢛⠛⢻⣿⠛⡏⢛⢛⡟⠛⣛⡟⡛⡟⠛⢙⡟⡛⡛⠛⢻⢟⠛⠋⡏⢹⣿⠛⢛⢻⠛⢛⢛⠛⠛⡟⠛⠛⡛⢻⠋⣟⠛⢹⠛⠛⡏⢛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡿⠿⠿⢿⠿⠿⠿⢿⡿⠿⢿⢿⡿⠷⠾⡿⢿⡿⢿⠶⢿⠿⡿⢿⢿⡿⢿⡿⡿⢿⢿⠿⡿⠿⡿⠿⠿⡿⠿⡿⢿⢷⠿⢿⡿⠿⠿⠿⡿⠿⢿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣥⣤⣤⣥⣯⣥⣬⣬⣯⣠⣬⣤⣿⣧⣤⣬⣼⣼⣼⣬⣿⣤⣧⣷⣤⣮⣬⣧⣧⣿⣧⣤⣧⣬⣿⣤⣬⣷⣤⣧⣥⣥⣬⣴⣦⣤⣧⣤⣬⣯⣤⣦⣬⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣻⢿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 142 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://techrights.org/n/2026/08/25/GNU_Linux_Did_Not_Start_in_1991_and_America_Wasn_t_Discovered_b.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2026/08/25/GNU_Linux_Did_Not_Start_in_1991_and_America_Wasn_t_Discovered_b.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ GNU/Linux Did Not Start in 1991 and America Wasn't Discovered by Europeans⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 25, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Clayton_Vale⦈_ 13 years ago: The_Linux_Foundation's_Big_Lie:_'Linux'_is_22_Years_Old Today many sites will_say_"Linux"_is_35, but we should remind ourselves -

Part 161 Out of 200: Low Standards in Defamation Cases Just Muddy the Waters and Distract From Legitimate Cases⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 25, 2026, updated Aug 25, 2026 The judge at the trial said that Garrett's case was a waste of the Court's money 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇to make a situation more confused and less easy to understand or deal with⦈ 4 days ago Daniel Pocock published what seemed_like_a_satirical_post although it had been preceded by or accompanied/complemented/joined with a real pre- action communication sent to Nigel Farage. See, Farage hurt the feelings of some people. That's "defamation"... I know that Daniel Pocock can do this for real, as a Litigant_in_Person_(LIP), then say something along the lines of: hey, if Garrett's AMERICAN friend (Microsoft, GNOME, and much_more) who strangles American women and gets_charged for_it can initiate such proceedings in the UK (NOT AMERICA) against someone who correctly reported it, why not me? 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Balabhadra (Alex) Graveley and Matthew J. Garrett⦈ Of course this litigation was initiated for these two Americans "by proxy" (they're safer from counterclaim or Orders for them to pay costs if they're hiding in some_forest or dad's home in Texas). They chose the firm that had spent months working for people who said offensive,_insensitive_things_(to families/widows_who_lost_loved_ones)_and_then_sued_media,_politicians_and_even comedians_for_criticising_them. It went so badly that their_client will need to compensate (probably millions of pounds) the people he sued. At least he can afford it (he claims to be a millionaire) and he's based in the UK, so the enforcement of Orders against him is straightforward [1, 2]. Whoever advised him to send (spray) dozens of pre-action letters to all his critics - even comedians! - should be held accountable for it. To be clear, people who spray dogs with bullets are not "freedom fighters". 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Hamas terror⦈ His representatives are profoundly distasteful. They must have attracted one another and we'll cover what they did on holy days (we've not gotten around to that yet; we don't divulge court materials while they're impending or still relevant). It's a lot worse than it looks on the surface. Why would the Royal_Courts_of_Justice even entertain stranglers of women (from another continent) and people who fail to see terrorism even when the state itself has long designated_that_as_such? █

* § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ o § Personal/Opinions⠀➾ # ⚓ When_you_call_me_that,_SMILE!⠀⇛ It is a long time since I read The Virginian, but that line has stayed with me. I remember that, before this incident, the narrator of the story is astonished by the way that the cowboys 'insulted' one another, using an obviously offensive phrase, always coyly abbreviated to just SOB in my edition of the book. He notes that the offence of the words is taken away by the humourous intent of the one using them. This is something we might take for granted in the 2020s, maybe not so much 120 years ago. # ⚓ tarot_speaks_on_spiritual_development⠀⇛ as mentioned in a previous post, i rarely do tarot readings for myself anymore. something to do with being ok with what is/what is to come? a sort of spiritual settling? there's way less stress and worry, and even when they happen i just allow them to exist without immediately trying to solve them away. i do still handle and interact with the cards in a variety of ways, one of them being - just laying out some cards in a row, looking for patterns. sometimes this actually yields an interesting message, even if nothing is troubling me and i haven't asked a question. i find these often to be akin to what rachel pollack demonstrated in her "a walk through the forest of souls" book. readings about the nature of reality and human life in general. # ⚓ B_Roads⠀⇛ Its been itching away me for a while now, ebbing and flowing but always there, this strange longing. The desire to get away and to explore, but to do so quietly and slowly, yet still comfortably. Away from the busy and the crowded and the peopley places. I keep eyeing B roads and unclassified roads on the map, the sort of roads where 30 mph is as fast as you safely want to go and that's pushing it. I'm in absolutely no rush and got not destination in mind, I'm happy to pull in to every passing place and let you go by. I'm scrolling through micro campers online, wondering how viable it is. The fantasy of it is sustaining right now, imagining how the days would go, the places I would visit and the whole time I'm thinking about the quiet places, not the tourist spots. A lonely lay by in the middle of nowhere sounds an ideal place to visit. So what if its only 3 miles away from the last place I stopped, I want to stop again. That's the sort of pace I'm talking about. o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ The_history_of_Geometry⠀⇛ A long time ago, long before real mathematics was invented by Russel and Whitehead and Bourbaki, a philosopher by the name of Euclid did a first, primitive attempt by creating geometry. He devised a system of 5 simple rules, originally intended to be a game, like the rules of chess, of which he actually took inspiration, and made a game so complex, and so utterly boring, that very few people understood. Credit where credit is due, his work was the first to point out that reality is spatial, a fact that was then taken by the egyptians and babylonians who could now use the newly invented geometry to measure land, a feat that was impossible without geometry, which literally means "land measuring". o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ FidoNet_History_1⠀⇛ Every year or so I rediscover FidoNet. I think it's neat, I poke around a bit and do some research into it. And then shortly afterwards, I naturally forget everything that I learned. Rinse and repeat. So this time around, I'm going to jot down some notes on my understanding of FidoNet, at least the parts that interest me. Mostly the nerdy protocol parts. For context, I was born in 90's and the internet of my childhood was AOL and Yahoo. This is not a firsthand account and some parts may be misunderstood. # ⚓ Stop_it_bots!!!⠀⇛ Another night of generating smolweb software no one else will use. I've been working on changing my Gemini footprint. I went from a single `molly-brown` instance, to multiple instances with `nginx` handling the host split. Then I added `kineto` to make those pages available on the big web as keeping two sets of all domains was not worth it. Tracked my page views and the numbers were nice. When I'd post to Antenna or on my Mastodon account I'd get a spike of 200 views and eventually it would go back down to a dozen a day. But over the past few months I noticed my average idle velocity was starting to creep up to the point where now I get a couple thousand hits a day. Even days where I don't post in this gemlog. After some digging around I realized that I was getting A LOT of HTTP traffic. # ⚓ Goodbye_I2P_and_Yggdrasil,_Welcome_Telnet!⠀⇛ A small change to the sava.rocks infrastructure today: the site is no longer available through I2P or Yggdrasil. # ⚓ Goodbye_I2P_and_Yggdrasil,_Welcome_Telnet!⠀⇛ I've also created an interactive Telnet server for sava.rocks. It felt like something was missing from the small-web collection. Gopher, Gemini, and Finger were all happily doing their thing, but somehow they were missing a proper Telnet server. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

There is an air of something that separates me from the rest of the world, as if a sheet of plexiglass prohibits me from fully participating. I can see through it and the people behind the plexiglass can also see me, but it feels as if they can't quite understand what I am saying. I'm not anti-social, nor socially inept. At least I don't think I am. I have been in a long-term relationship for just short of twelve years. I know how to relate to people and seek to converge with them in conversation but not obsequiously so. I also get on incredibly well with my immediate family, if not my extended family. When we are together, we spark off one-another in the most uproarious and absurd ways. # ⚓ in_your_hair⠀⇛ my hand in your hair, a gentle tug not a new thought a resurfaced one imagination running wild so many steps ahead I can't count not like I'm really trying happily distracted by that thought my hand in your hair, again # ⚓ Minotaur⠀⇛ Lately, our conversations feel like navigating a labyrinth. One way in, one way back. But guess what? There's a minotaur in here, and every turn of phrase leads me closer to the center. o § Politics and World Events⠀➾ # ⚓ A_page_from_the_history_book⠀⇛ Well over 3000 years ago, in the time of Pharaohs, a young man named Alexander¹ managed to conquer the entire world, until he died on dysentery, alone in a remote corner of the world where his soldiers had left him alone, to divide the whole empire for themselves. One of them, by the name of Julius Caesar, took the westernmost part of the conquered lands and founded the roman empire. Constantine took the part that was properly greece, and founded the byzantine empire with it's capital in Istanbul. Further east, Ptolemy took Egypt, and wrote the Tetrabiblos, the first book of astrology ever, which took the old knowledge of the egyptians and mixed it with the babylonian practice. At the east, Darius took the part that belonged to Islam and founded the Persian dynasty. South of Persia, the Mughal dynasty was formed, and so, the whole known world was distributed among a handful of hegemons, in what would later be called the Spring and Autumn period, because the known world was so big, stretching from east to west, that while it was spring on the western half, it was autumn on the eastern half. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ Four_Hours_of_Time_Travel:_Troubleshooting_an_Old_Basic Stamp_2⠀⇛ Sometimes technology takes you on an unexpected journey into the past. Yesterday I spent four intense hours debugging a Basic Stamp 2. A BS2 from a 2003 robot, a piece of history. I had no idea how involved this would become. # ⚓ A_Resilient,_Low-Tech_Information_Network⠀⇛ I usually treat connectivity as if it were a natural state: just there, always available, never questioned. In truth it breaks easily, because it depends on commercial services, on stable power, and on political availability. The Offpunk Manifesto by Ploum documents this with several examples: internet shutdowns in conflict regions, outages at major cloud providers that suddenly take half a country offline. # ⚓ A_digital_expression_of_quiet_optimism⠀⇛ Something about the way Orwell describes that face you ought to make towards the telescreens really resonated with me. When I first read it, I thought it spoke to some kind of forced insincerity I felt we all had to perform. These days, I find myself taking the line a lot more literally. The more time I spend in the real world cyberpunk dystopia, the more I feel I ought to be making a face of quiet optimism towards the telescreens, or more specifically, in how I portray myself on the internet. There was a time when I think you could earnestly get away from surveillance capitalism by simply making the right consumer choices. But these days I'm finding that quiet hard. Meaningfully resisting fingerprinting is hard. Using Librewolf is a worse experience than stock Firefox or Chrome. Network effects will keep you coming back to harmful platforms, which will leverage their draw to cultivate addictive behaviours. # ⚓ Beautiful_Emacs_on_7_inch_HDMI_display⠀⇛ Some time ago I purchased a cheap 7 inch 1024x600 HDMI display, for a project is was working on. After the ending of the project, I attached a Raspberry Pi 4B with 4GB RAM to it, and installed FreeBSD 15.1 on it. I keep the FreeBSD install lightweight. I runs Xorg, with ratpoison, my favorite tiling window manager. Apart from Emacs, I didn't install much software on it, to keep it light. Besides, Emacs covers almost all your needs. First I thought of installing the text mode version of Emacs, but then I remembered that those variants can be compiled very minimal and decided to install the graphical version. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ Jörg_Rippel_-_Author⠀⇛ Welcome to my Gemini capsule! Here I share my thoughts on technology, electronics, and the future of the internet - or rather: its drowning. # ⚓ Drowning_Internet⠀⇛ I'm a German tech author. My Gemini capsule is about what I call the Drowning Internet: authentic online communities disappearing under a flood of AI slop, SEO spam, and commercial noise. All posts in German and English, covering hobby robotics and electronics, internet forum decay, alternative protocols, and related topics. # ⚓ Schreibfaultier_got_a_new_home⠀⇛ There was a pleasant surprise waiting too: the capsule is automatically also available as an HTML version via https:// schreibfaultier.pollux.casa/ without me having to set anything up for that myself. For anyone who doesn't (yet) have a Gemini client installed, the content can still be read perfectly normally in a browser. A small but very welcome bridge between the two worlds. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

In absolutely none of the shows did the performer ask why we were there, how we found out about the show, which poster or leaflet attracted us, or whether we followed them on social media. All that money spent on posters and no one knows if they work. As the old saying goes "Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted, and the trouble is I don’t know which half.". o ⚓ Ruben Verweij ☛ Tune_in_to_other_writers⠀⇛ My overarching theme for this month has been music: I’ve been listening to it, playing it, and also writing about it more often in August. As the well-known quote, "writing about music is like dancing about architecture", already warns us, this hasn’t always been easy. Luckily, there are plenty of web writers who have inspired me with their music related writing, and I hope you’ll like their work as well. Time to tune in to some other musical folks! o ⚓ Juha-Matti Santala ☛ Reply_to_Dale’s_comment_on_my_IndieWeb post⠀⇛ We don’t disagree here at all. I don’t think IndieWeb is “a recursive effort to ultimately converge everybody towards a set of ideas”. I apologise if my communication was lacking on that part. First of all, I don’t think everybody is the target of IndieWeb. I’m not even sure if I agree with the “converge [ - - ] towards a set of ideas part”. To encourage an adoption of certain ideas, sure. But not converge in a sense that these would be the only right things. o ⚓ Jono Alderson ☛ SEO_is_the_cleanup_crew_for_organisational dysfunction⠀⇛ When something breaks on the website, more often than not, it’s the SEO team that finds it. A redesign doubles page weight. Product pages inherit three teams’ worth of contradictory messaging. Analytics stops measuring the thing everyone presents to the board. Nobody has looked at what customers have been saying on Reddit for six months. Eventually, somebody notices. And it’s usually us. o ⚓ DNA Lounge ☛ DNA_Lounge:_24-Aug-2026_(Mon):_Wherein_someone_tries to_sell_our_Prince_scraps⠀⇛ The reason I have so many extras is because of how big printers work. Or worked, at the time, anyway. We needed like 3,200 tickets, but these things were stamped in large galleys, so if you ordered 3,200 they ended up printing 5,000 and threw the rest away. And for a show like this, we did not want those discards falling into the wrong hands and ending up on the scalper market, so we had them send us the entire batch from the print run. o ⚓ Indie Web Is Punk ☛ The_IndieWeb_Is_Punk_Manifesto⠀⇛ You don't need a deal with a label. You don't need a platform's blessing. All you need is an out of tune guitar you can barely play, or a free text editor and a hosting bill. That's it. That's the whole scene. o § Science / Mathematics / Computer Science⠀➾ # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Journalism_Can_Help_Expose_Bad_Science_And Trigger_Real-World_Change,_New_Study_Shows⠀⇛ A new study published in Media and Communication looks at the practice of watchdog science journalism, where journalists investigate issues such as malpractice, fraud, and corporate manipulation in scientific research. # ⚓ Wired ☛ Transistors_Changed_Everything._Here’s_How_They Work⠀⇛ Life would be completely different without transistors. For starters, there would be no personal computers or cell phones, so no Amazon, no video games, no dating apps, no messaging, no streaming, no social media, no Apple Pay or Google Maps, and no AI (hmm). Cars contain billions of transistors. They're really everywhere. So what is a transistor? # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Making_Better_Rubies_At_Home⠀⇛ That basic method used involves blasting aluminium oxide with a laser, which results in a container full of what are technically gems, but – as the image on the right makes clear – not exactly the prettiest or easiest to shine up. Much of the problem here is that these are hollow geodes composed of countless tiny crystals instead of solid singular crystals. # ⚓ John D Cook ☛ Three-term_recurrences⠀⇛ There many examples of families of functions where each function can be computed as a linear combination of the two previous terms f_{n+1}(x) = a(x) f_n(x) + b(x) f_{n-1}(x) where a and b are functions of x but not on n. This is called a three-term recurrence formula. # ⚓ John D Cook ☛ von_Mises_probability_distribution_|_von Mises-Fisher⠀⇛ Probability density function must integrate to 1, and so if you know a density function up to a constant, the constant is determined. # ⚓ John D Cook ☛ What_exactly_is_modified_about_a_modified Bessel_function?⠀⇛ Special functions often have arcane names that not very helpful without some context. The previous post goes into some reasons for this. This post will expand on a point at the end of the post about “modified” functions. Things are given their names for reasons. Discovering those reasons may help you understand their motivation and use. o § Career/Education⠀➾ # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Employers_Are_Hiring_Recent_Grads_and_Then Saying_"Oops,_Never_Mind"⠀⇛ Entering what is one of the worst job markets in decades, you almost can’t blame recent grads for blasting out AI-generated resumes. But recruiters, in turn, are using faulty AI tools to filter through the garbage. Internal documents at Google revealed, for example, that its internal AI systems are wrongly throwing out the applications of qualified candidates. Many job postings are themselves AI generated. Some employers are also using AI to screen candidates and conduct interviews. Job seekers, aware of this AI-dominated paradigm, are tailoring their resumes to please AI tools. In sum, it’s AI warfare on all sides. Still, some basic human decency — such as not taking back job offers and ghosting applicants — would be nice. # ⚓ SFGate ☛ Employers_are_ghosting_college_grads_and rescinding_offers⠀⇛ For the past two years, navigating the job market has been demoralizing, especially for those who are just now graduating college and entering a tumultuous workforce rife with ghost jobs, smug artificial intelligence agents and disturbing “blue people.” As a result, spraying and praying — the act of blasting out hundreds or even thousands of AI-generated resumes to job postings out of desperation — is becoming the norm. Now, according to career experts who spoke with SFGATE, overwhelmed employers are rescinding job offers and ghosting applicants, creating even more pain, confusion and regret among recent college grads. # ⚓ Deseret Media ☛ 3-year_college_degrees_grow_more_popular_in the_US,_saving_time_and_cash._But_critics_aren't_sold⠀⇛ The condensed programs have exploded in popularity. As of this spring, 26 U.S. states have a college that offers at least one reduced-credit, three-year bachelor's degree, according to the nonprofit research group RAND. # ⚓ American Library Association ☛ ALA_Opens_2027_Annual Conference_&_Exhibition_Call_for_Proposals⠀⇛ ALA invites education programs and posters for the ALA 2027 Annual Conference & Exhibition, June 24- 28, 2027, in New Orleans, Louisiana. The Annual Conference explores key challenges and opportunities facing libraries, with professional development rooted in timely research, innovation, and best practices. # ⚓ Tracy Durnell ☛ My_book_TBR_system⠀⇛ I know. And yet, over the past 15 years, I have developed a reading system that relies on a Goodreads feature: custom shelves. I keep looking at Hardcover, but they don’t have custom shelves, and I’m not sure I could tolerate adapting my system to what Hardcover allows. (I’m not a fan of Story Graph though admittedly it’s been five years since I tried it.) To some extent, I feel like my system has trapped me on Goodreads — but at this point Goodreads doesn’t bother me enough to justify the effort that changing my system would take, especially when it works well for me currently. (To be clear, this post is a lament about my own need for categorization, not a complaint that any given software is not perfectly suited to my needs — I recognize that I am not a typical user. I am also guessing that custom shelves are either difficult to code or introduce complexity that isn’t worthwhile for most software companies.) # ⚓ Luke Davis ☛ AME:_ask_me_everything⠀⇛ Having worked in digital marketing for 7 years, customer service for 5, and being a consumer for over 30, the one thing that dumbfounds me is why we don’t ask people what they want or how they want it. I’ve been open about my issues with the concept of experts. We place them on pedestals as paragons of knowledge and wisdom. # ⚓ Kevin Kelly ☛ The_Technium:_A_Billion_Dollars⠀⇛ The point of my exercise is that most people’s dreams are not gated by money. Sure you need some money, but you probably don’t need as much as you might imagine. You most likely don’t need multi- million dollars to start your dream. The bottleneck for most dreams is not financial. It’s a lack of confidence, willingness to take a risk, and face failure, or a lack of imagination of what is possible with current resources. If you want to write a novel you don’t need capital — you need discipline and 1,000 # ⚓ James G ☛ Art,_technology;_change⠀⇛ This year I have spent a lot of time thinking about art. I have spent many weekends in art galleries, a kind of building that has a magnetism comparable to that I used to feel writing code. Except unlike software, art makes me stop and look and listen. When I study art, I am not trying to make anything. I am following my curiosities. I am letting my imagination run wild. I enjoy coming up with questions about what I see and sitting with them, without the obligation of trying to immediately find an answer. Art fills part of my life that I didn’t realise needed filling. I look at canvases like I do stars: with the greatest awe and curiosity that I know. # ⚓ [Old] Software Should Work ☛ Software_Should_Work⠀⇛ An independent conference on software reliability. # ⚓ Lars Faye ☛ AI_Coding_will_Prevent_Expertise⠀⇛ In my previous article, Agentic Coding is a Trap, I discussed the "skilled orchestrator paradox", where the skills required to manage AI agents for coding are the same ones that can be diminished through the continued use of said AI agents. Expertise was largely the differentiator; the more experienced a developer is, the less likely it is that they might experience skill atrophy, as the knowledge has had a chance to ossify after years of experience. If you look around right now, you'll find the vast majority of those that are seeing the most benefits from these models are those that have had years, if not decades, of experience in the field (which predates AI tooling, of course). And any industry veteran will tell you the same: the bedrock of this knowledge comes from doing the work. # ⚓ Natchez, Mississippi ☛ The_school_day_should_belong_to students,_not_their_cell_pho...⠀⇛ That doesn't necessarily mean students shouldn't be allowed to bring phones to school. We understand why parents want their children to have them, particularly before and after school. But there is a significant difference between having a phone available when it is needed and having unrestricted access to it throughout the school day. The latter is increasingly difficult to defend. # ⚓ Guillaume Heu ☛ My_experience_as_a_first_time_speaker⠀⇛ I was lucky enough to be selected to speak at the 2026 Gleam Gathering, which was my first conference talk ever. As you'd expect, I was nervous. You won't see it in the video, but I blanked out for a whole minute at the start of my presentation. Thankfully, the crowd was being patient, and once I found my first few words, I was on straight tracks. I've learned a lot from this initial experience. Some things I did right, some things I wasn't prepared for, and I was very lucky to have such a good audience. o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ Android Police ☛ Google_is_still_prioritizing repairability,_as_this_Pixel_11_Pro_XL_teardown_gives_us_a better_look_inside⠀⇛ Naturally, with any new phone, some folks will get curious about just how durable it might be. That's where the JerryRigEverything YouTube channel comes in, stress testing phones beyond what most normal people will put their devices through. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ An_Electronic_Explanation_Of_1960s_Fuzz_Boxes⠀⇛ It’s likely that even those of us who have never picked up a guitar in our lives will recognize the sound of an electric guitar with a fuzz box effects pedal. The raspy distorted sound has been at the heart of so many very well known recordings. Behind it is a distortion circuit, or as [Bill Jehle’s Mad Scientist Guitar Lab] is here to tell us, eight different circuit topologies. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ At_Last,_A_Gameboy_Advance_With_Decent_Audio⠀⇛ It takes the form of a PCB that hooks into the pads of the removed GBA audio chip, and provides a much cleaner audio path with filtering and EQ and a class D audio amplifier. In addition there’s an audio codec and an ESP32 for Bluetooth connectivity, enabled by a long press of a GBA button and configured via a web interface on the ESP. Best of all there is no case modification, this is designed to remain as stock as possible. # ⚓ The Drone Girl ☛ Must-read_Wired_story_captures_soul_(and tech)_of_drone_light_shows⠀⇛ Every once in a while, a piece of journalism comes along that captures an industry shift so vividly, thoughtfully and humorously that you can’t help but pass it along to everyone you know. # ⚓ Jim Grey ☛ 35mm_f/2.8_SMC_Pentax-A⠀⇛ The 35mm f/2.8 SMC Pentax-A is the 35mm lens I bought for my Pentax manual-focus SLR bodies. (The 35mm f/2.8 SMC Pentax-M shares its optical formula.) It is easily my favorite 35mm lens across all of the SLR systems I own. It has little or no optical distortion, it is sharp across the frame, and — delightfully — its tonal and contrast biases are fairly neutral, letting the film itself shine through. # ⚓ Bernardo Kastrup ☛ The_immortal_1984_Macintosh_(restoration diary)⠀⇛ After a long pause of a year and a half, I finally managed to complete a modest new restoration project this summer. The goal this time was to restore an original Apple Macintosh 128K (1984) for display and daily use in an office environment, where it will serve both as an educational curiosity and a source of entertainment and relaxation for employees. o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ The New Lede ☛ This_American_city_perfected_clean_water_for beer_—_now_it’s_fighting_to_keep_cancer-causing_nitrates_out of_the_tap⠀⇛ Ever since Jacob Leinenkugel discovered spring waters here that were pure enough to brew his famous beer, this small Wisconsin city’s devotion to clean water has been paramount. That’s why in 1997, when Chippewa Falls utility managers detected potentially dangerous concentrations of nitrates in a well supplying city water, officials acted. They installed new filtration equipment in their treatment system and drilled deeper wells into cleaner aquifers to ensure the water delivered to the city’s 16,000 customers contained nitrates at concentrations less than 10 parts per million, the level deemed safe by federal law. It costs Chippewa Falls $200,000 a year to operate the system. o § Proprietary / Vendor Lock-in / Malware⠀➾ # ⚓ Business Insider ☛ Leaked_Microsoft_pay_data_shows_how_much hundreds_of_employees_report_making_in_AI,_cloud,_and_other teams [Ed: Associating roles with buzzwords, not substance]⠀⇛ # ⚓ Former_Bethsoft_devs_claim_Microsoft_changed_the_company and_mishandled_recent_layoffs⠀⇛ # ⚓ Salon ☛ I_was_fired_for_resisting_technology._It_saved_my career⠀⇛ “I tried it. That software is too complicated for me and I don’t need it,” I told her. “Other teachers got permission to skip it, so I requested a waiver.” As a popular college creative writing professor who’d filled up in-person sections every term for 25 years, I worried I was too much of a Luddite to learn new cyber tricks. Yet I’d actually adapted to and enjoyed easy Zoom live video meetings, which mirrored my regular courses. I assumed I’d just get an exemption to avoid the Canvas Learning Management System requirement. Instead, when I didn’t complete the tutorial, the algorithm canceled my classes. Checking the university’s website, I saw that my list of 50 current students disappeared overnight. While two younger male colleagues were somehow excused from the cyber course prerequisite, I was dismissed after a quarter of a century of service, and I was distraught. # § So-Called 'Artificial Intelligence' ('AI') / LLM Slop / Plagiarism⠀➾ # ⚓ El País ☛ China_does_not_want_its_internet_users_to fall_in_love_with_an_artificial_intelligence⠀⇛ Beijing bans chatbots from fostering emotional dependence in a pioneering regulation to contain the social risks of a technology poised to transform personal relationships # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Clueless_AI_CEOs_Still_Baffled_Why Everybody’s_So_Mad_About_AI_All_the_Time⠀⇛ The tech industry’s standing in the eyes of the US public has undergone a dramatic transformation over the last few years. Where Americans were once excited for new tech products and industry ideas, they’re now exhausted by the sector’s intrusions into their lives, whether with AI-generated slop or the data centers that power it. Pretty much everyone has received that message loud and clear: political strategists are issuing frenzied memos about the data center backlash, while tech financiers are now forced to consider the financial cost of AI hatred. # ⚓ Digital Music News ☛ AI-Generated_Music_to_Be_Banned From_ARIA_Charts_in_Australia⠀⇛ Australia will exclude songs created wholly or mostly by artificial intelligence from the country’s official music charts beginning this Friday, according to new rules established by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA). Notably, AI- assisted recordings can still chart if they are “substantially human-made.” # ⚓ MIT Technology Review ☛ Kids_outlearn_AI—and_we_still don't_know_why⠀⇛ LLMs need vastly more data than children to learn language. Understanding why could help us create more efficient models—and reveal more about developing minds. # ⚓ Tim Bray ☛ Text_Watermarking⠀⇛ LLM software generates output a word at a time. The way it works is, it takes the last few words it’s generated and feeds them to the Large-Language-Model process, and what comes out is a list of plausible next words, and a number which represents just how plausible they are. So if the last few words were “my favorite tropical fruit is” the LLM might come back with “mango”:30, “lychee”:20, “papaya”:10. You might think that LLMs always choose the most-plausible next word, but that turns out to give lousy results. So they randomly select from the list in a way that respects those numbers. First, note that the numbers add up to 60. So in this case, you’d want it to select “mango” 30 out of 60 attempts, i.e. half the time, “lychee” 20/60 or a third, and “papaya” 10/60 or a sixth. # ⚓ Gigi ☛ Rebuilding_Boris⠀⇛ I still find it curious that we call these lies “hallucinations,” as if providing inaccurate or dangerously wrong information to millions and millions of people is somehow cute, a little oopsi-daisy that might happen on an LSD trip or something. # ⚓ CoryDoctorow ☛ Pluralistic:_Born_on_technology’s third_base_(21_Aug_2026)⠀⇛ As Gary Marcus describes in a recent Organized Money interview, an LLM can recite the rules of chess, but it can't play chess because – lacking a theory of how chess works – it will just emit statistically likely chess moves, even if those moves cause pieces to illegally move through other pieces. The first conventional chess-playing programs ran on electromechanical proto-computers, and they played a better game of chess than an LLM that uses billions of times more computing power and energy: [...] # ⚓ Armin Ronacher ☛ Anger,_Anxiety_and_Agency⠀⇛ "How can you work in tech right now and not be angry?" In the context of the thread, this was clearly also about AI and agents. For me, the emotions I would expect in tech vis-a-vis these new developments are disorientation and anxiety, but not anger. # ⚓ Arjen Wiersma ☛ AI_is_not_an_engineer⠀⇛ I made the mistake (looking at it in hindsight) of allowing AI to take over my critical thinking when it comes to coding. Like many I found the wonder of AI in that it was able to very quickly write entire programs for me. The downside of this was that I felt no connection to the code whatsoever. # ⚓ Digital Music News ☛ Twitch_Streamers_Sue_Twitch, Amazon_Over_AI_Training_Data_Use⠀⇛ According to the filing, streamer and class representative Warren Pandiscia alleges that Amazon began scraping video streams for training purposes before Twitch updated its terms of service to address AI data use, which included an opt-out option for creators. The alleged data collection began over two years ago, per Pandiscia’s complaint, which was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The filing cites a previous statement from Twitch’s former Chief Monetization Officer Mike Minton, who said video data was used in a “prototyping capacity.” # ⚓ Pivot to AI ☛ Twitch_AI_class_action:_inept_and written_with_ChatGPT⠀⇛ I would first assume: not very. Most class actions don’t go anywhere. They have to get the judge to certify there is a group they represent and that they have a cause of action. Anyone can file a case, it’s not really a news story. And the complaint itself is a bit lightweight. If your first claim is implicit terms that aren’t written, is that the best you’ve got? The other claims are no stronger. # ⚓ CNET ☛ The_Dead_Internet_Theory_May_Be_Coming_True, Pew_Research_Findings_Show⠀⇛ Nonetheless, the study found that 10% of the samples “show significant signs of AI authorship.” “One in 10 webpages as of July 2026 may seem modest. But the internet includes a mix of new and old material. A lot of pages in these random samples couldn’t have been written by AI,” the study findings said. “If we filter old webpages out of our samples and look at only the pages published after the release of ChatGPT, the trend is even more pronounced.” # ⚓ BoingBoing ☛ California_State_University_system_uses AI_as_a_money_incinerator⠀⇛ The cash-strapped university system spent $17 million to give everyone ChatGPT, watched sign-ups come in far more slowly than expected, and responded by committing another $39 million to it. # ⚓ SFGate ☛ Calif._colleges_bought_everyone_ChatGPT._No one_knows_what_to_do.⠀⇛ “Equity doesn’t matter if it’s not an educational technology,” Kenney said. “If I gave every CSU student a can of Coke, that’s equitable. But is that going to help their education?” In a 2025 study at the University of Minnesota and Dublin City University, researchers analyzed some college classrooms where AI was openly used. In one case, a professor asked his students to use ChatGPT to assist them with their essays; however, some students accepted the output without verifying the information. Many of the essays had “made-up sources” and wrong information, the study states. And in another professor’s physics class, some students who used ChatGPT also blindly followed the chatbots. “… Students believed that ChatGPT had superhuman intelligence and was practically infallible, even when it answered their physics questions incorrectly,” the study says. If students are misled by ChatGPT’s information, Kenney and other professors believe it would do more harm than good. # ⚓ Salon ☛ Are_kids_“guinea_pigs_for_chatbots”?_McMahon backs_classroom_AI_use⠀⇛ Those limitations can be significant. During a recent AI training session for educators in South Carolina, an AI-generated world map misspelled Mali as “Mail,” labeled Egypt “Sopth” and replaced Libya with a country simply called “Africa.” McMahon said schools should monitor whether AI tools actually improve student outcomes and remove those that don’t. She also emphasized that AI should not replace human teachers. # § Social Control Media⠀➾ # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ 2026-08-12_[Older]_Brazil_orders Discord_to_halt_livestreaming_after_teen_death⠀⇛ # ⚓ Hindustan Times ☛ Facebook,_TikTok_promoted_Colombian armed_groups'_content_to_recruit_children:_HRW⠀⇛ HRW said the circulation of social media content by armed groups "glorifies life in armed group ranks" and promotes "deceptive job offers." Since 2021, around 1,500 children have been recruited by armed groups, according to the non-governmental organization. # ⚓ HRW ☛ “I_Thought_I’d_Never_See_My_Mom_Again”: Recruitment_and_Use_of_Children_by_Colombian_Armed Groups⠀⇛ This report examines the dynamics of child recruitment, the factors that place children at risk, the strategies armed groups utilize to recruit them, and how children are used by the groups. It also analyzes the government’s response and its shortcomings in preventing child recruitment, protecting and rescuing children, assisting in the recovery and reintegration of those who have been released, and prosecuting the armed groups responsible. Human Rights Watch conducted 184 interviews with government officials, humanitarian workers, Indigenous and community leaders, members of human rights and children’s rights organizations, and Colombian state child protection officers. We also held in-person and virtual group meetings with children who had been victims of recruitment or had been at risk of recruitment, and obtained data and other information from multiple government sources. # ⚓ HRW ☛ Colombia:_Armed_Groups_Expand_Child Recruitment⠀⇛ “Armed groups in Colombia are recruiting children with impunity, as protection systems are failing, and social media platforms have become a more effective recruiting ground,” said Juanita Goebertus, Americas director at Human Rights Watch. “Every child recruited is indicative of a government failure.” # ⚓ India Times ☛ Facebook,_TikTok_promoted_Colombian armed_groups'_content_to_recruit_children:_NGO⠀⇛ Human Rights Watch (HRW) said the circulation of social media content by armed groups "glorifies life in armed group ranks" and promotes "deceptive job offers." Since 2021, around 1,500 children have been recruited by armed groups, according to HRW. # ⚓ Omicron Limited ☛ Wildlife_trafficking_spreads_across social_media,_putting_thousands_of_species_at_risk⠀⇛ A new study published in Nature Reviews Biodiversity by an international team of experts led by researchers from the University of Helsinki highlights that thousands of animal, plant and fungal species, many of which are threatened with extinction, are being illegally traded online as global consumer demand continues to grow. "The online illegal wildlife trade spreads across many platforms, including popular social media platforms, and represents a growing and evolving threat to biodiversity conservation," says Professor Di Minin. # ⚓ Jacobin Magazine ☛ Do_Not_Go_Gentle_Into_Silicon Valley’s_Dark_Night⠀⇛ Perhaps the most important trial — and test — will be an action launched by California, Colorado, Kentucky and New Jersey, which began last week. The states, which are seeking $200 billion in damages, argue that Meta and its platforms are addictive, targeted at children, and in violation of privacy and consumer protection laws. Meta, of course, maintains its innocence. # ⚓ International Business Times ☛ Substitute_Teacher's AI_Fake_in_Lingerie_Spreads_on_TikTok_as_Easy-To-Use Nudify_Apps_Drive_Surge_in_Abuse⠀⇛ DeSantiago traced the image to a TikTok account using the real name of a student he recognised from a local middle school where he regularly worked. He suspected two further students were involved, based on who followed and engaged with the account. He reported it to the school's assistant principal, who told him the matter would be 'taken care of'. Searching his own name on TikTok that evening, DeSantiago found a second account impersonating him, using a misspelt version of his name and the same doctored image as its profile picture. # ⚓ Numeric Citizen ☛ Being_manipulated⠀⇛ This morning, I visited Reddit to answer a question about Craft. When I noticed five notifications, I clicked the bell icon. Two of them were about engagement stimulation, which I felt was manipulative and deceptive. I dislike being tricked this way. LinkedIn is also good at this. And Meta, the master of them all. Major platforms will likely face legal challenges in the future because their product design promotes toxic engagement tactics that manipulate users for growth. Om Malik won’t be around to see this unfold, sadly. # ⚓ Floh Gro ☛ Disappointment⠀⇛ It's not often that something happening online stays on my mind this long. It's not often that a social media situation disappoints me this much. Last week, MacStories decided to return to posting on X, which caused a big wave of anger on Mastodon and, I guess, some excitement over there. Federico and John might have good reasons for this - personally and on the business side - and I'm not in a position to judge the business decision itself. What I'm 99.999% sure about is that they are good people, and it's not right to reduce this move to them turning around and supporting fascists. Cancelling a subscription (or a follow) because of it is a legitimate response, and so, perhaps, is staying. o § Privatisation/Privateering⠀➾ # ⚓ Federal News Network ☛ TSA_to_replace_‘Gold+’_in privatization_push⠀⇛ Under SPP, private companies run security screening services at commercial airports under TSA oversight. Currently, 20 commercial airports across the United States use private screeners under SPP. o § Security⠀➾ # § Integrity/Availability/Authenticity⠀➾ # ⚓ The Atlantic ☛ Logging_in_Was_Never_Supposed_to_Be This_Complicated⠀⇛ All of these steps serve a purpose. At least in theory, each added layer helps prevent hacks and breaches. Erring on the side of safety is worth an amount of inconvenience. At the same time, extra steps can introduce security problems of their own. Last year, Hunt fell for a clever phishing scheme when he clicked a link to log in to his newsletter service. His password manager failed to autofill his information, which should have alerted him that something was wrong, he said. But like the rest of us, he was so used to things not working that he went ahead and manually entered his credentials on a site that turned out to be an impostor, designed to steal and exploit them. # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ 2026-08-12_[Older]_Unconstitutional?

That notification mechanism should involve an enforcing authority and consist in the transmission of the EPOC to that authority at the same time as the EPOC is transmitted to the addressee. However, where a European Production Order is issued to obtain electronic evidence in criminal proceedings with substantial and strong links to the issuing State, no notification to the enforcing authority should be required. Such links should be assumed where, at the time of issuing the European Production Order, the issuing authority has reasonable grounds to believe that the offence has been committed, is being committed or is likely to be committed in the issuing State, and where the person whose data are requested resides in the issuing State. # ⚓ CBC ☛ Woman_flagged_by_ID_scanner_as_nationwide 'public_safety_concern'_after_incident_in_Winnipeg bar⠀⇛ She said she was not told why they were scanning it and had no idea an incident later that evening would lead to a flag that potentially banned her from bars across Canada. "This flag had denied me entry at an establishment in a whole other province without my knowledge, without any transparency surrounding how this flag had been established," Alexandra said. # ⚓ Ludlow Institute ☛ The_coolest_anti-surveillance tools_at_Defcon⠀⇛ I go to DEFCON every year because I think the people there are doing really cool and awesome stuff. And this year was no different. The Ludlow Institute hosted a hackathon at IoT Village where we had people hack into IoT devices like electronic basketball hoops, electric cars, smart lights, and other everyday connected junk. And we gave out prizes when people found anything interesting. # ⚓ FSF ☛ The_hidden_cost_of_today's_"smart"_devices⠀⇛ Audio headsets that connect to computers wirelessly via Bluetooth demonstrate how quickly this loss of control turns into a security problem. Millions of Bluetooth- capable products utilize Google's "Fast Pair" service, which is nonfree software that promises to make pairing of wearable devices easier. It uses Bluetooth Low Energy and Android’s location services to detect nearby Bluetooth devices automatically and prompts you to pair. Security researchers discovered this feature was really a bug, as it introduced a serious weakness across a wide range of devices. This included wireless earbuds and headphones from major manufacturers, which could be turned into surveillance machines. Attackers could silently pair with these devices and hijack the audio to spy on the person wearing them, as well as anyone they spoke to. In some cases, the microphone could be activated and the wearer could be tracked through Google's own network. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ AliExpress_accused_of fingerprinting_shoppers_with_silent_audio_trick_that also_muted_a_dev's_headphones⠀⇛ He said the scripts built a WebAudio graph that introduced a sawtooth oscillator to generate a waveform, an analyzer to measure the result after the waveform passes through a browser’s audio implementation, and a script to read the associated frequency data. The scripts set the audio’s gain to zero, meaning the end user won’t hear anything, but the WebAudio graph will still be processed by the browser. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ 2026-08-15_[Older]_Morocco_detains_dozens of_migrants_trying_to_enter_Spanish_North_African_exclave Ceuta⠀⇛ # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ 2026-08-13_[Older]_How_Germany's_drone defense_fails⠀⇛ # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ 2026-08-14_[Older]_NATO_jets_shoot_down drone_over_Latvia⠀⇛ # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ 2026-08-14_[Older]_Luigi_Mangione_pleads guilty_to_federal_stalking_charges_in_Brian_Thompson_death⠀⇛ # ⚓ Barnabas Aid ☛ Thirty_Killed_as_100_Gunmen_Attack_Village in_Plateau_State,_Nigeria⠀⇛ At least 30 people were killed when around 100 gunmen descended on a village in Nigeria’s Christian-majority Plateau State on Sunday August 16.

City officials encouraged residents not to engage with Lang supporters the day before. Several commentors praised Lang’s rhetoric during public comment. # ⚓ CBS ☛ Anti-Islam_protest_roils_Dearborn,_Michigan_city council_meeting_as_crowds_try_to_rush_through_doors⠀⇛ Sewell, the senior pastor of 180 Church in Detroit, accused the city of being "under Sharia Law" and demanded that councilmembers renounce it. The topic has been a hot-button issue in other U.S. states, including Florida and Texas. Sewell previously hosted then-presidential candidate Donald Trump and even spoke at the 2024 Republican National Convention. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Arson_and_bomb_attacks_hit_more_than_70 locations_in_Thailand’s_deep_south,_authorities_say⠀⇛ More than 7,800 people have been killed in provinces bordering Malaysia since 2004, when the latest round of a long-running insurgency led mainly by the Barisan Revolusi Nasional (BRN) flared. # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Don’t_Trust_The_Name_On_The_PAC⠀⇛ Political action committees are responsible for nearly two-thirds of all federal election funding, with about US$6.3 billion raised and $4.8 billion spent since January 2025. But their outsized political influence does not just come from their wallets. It’s also generated from their names. Political strategists are adopting PAC names that signal the opposite political goals from what those organizations truly intend. They hope to taint voter perception of the candidates or ballot initiatives to which they donate. # ⚓ Vox ☛ Want_to_tax_the_rich?_Start_with_the_dead.⠀⇛ And yet, in a world with stepped-up basis, the higher you raise the tax rate on capital gains, the more incentive you give the rich to sit on their most lucrative assets until they die. For this reason, hiking the top capital gains rate can theoretically cost the government money. In a 2021 analysis of President Joe Biden’s proposal to lift the top rate on investments to 39.6 percent, economists at the University of Pennsylvania projected that the policy would reduce federal revenue by $33 billion over the next decade, as investors sold off fewer assets. # ⚓ New Republic ☛ Republican_Shirks_AIPAC_Donation_Amid Contentious_Michigan_Race⠀⇛ Rogers reportedly brought up his reservations during a meeting last week with the AIPAC board chair, Michael Tuchin. Rogers did not explicitly say that he did not want AIPAC involved in his race, but encouraged the United Democracy Project, the organization’s super PAC, to ease up on its media plan and “give more serious thought to whether the organization is the best messenger” against El-Sayed, according to a source that spoke with the Times. # ⚓ Smithsonian Magazine ☛ Scientists_Used_A.I._to_Design_New Viruses._The_Technology_Could_Be_a_Boon_for_Medicine,_but Experts_Worry_About_Harmful_Pathogens⠀⇛ The findings represent the first genomes, or complete genetic instruction books, designed entirely with generative A.I. The resulting viruses attack only bacteria, which could one day help overcome the problem of antibiotic-resistant microbes # ⚓ CoryDoctorow ☛ Pluralistic:_How_Canada_can_help_Americans and_defeat_America_(23_Aug_2026)⠀⇛ In 2020, Donald Trump ripped up NAFTA, a trade deal that conferred a huge advantage to the USA at Canada's expense, and replaced it with CUSMA, a trade deal that was even more advantageous to America, and even worse for Canada. In 2024, after being elected for the second time, Trump publicly railed against CUSMA using the exact same language he'd used to decry NAFTA, branding it "a very bad deal" that needed to be shredded and renegotiated. [...] The fact that Trump is immune to learning from his mistakes (because that would require admitting that he made a mistake) does not bind Canada to do the same. Quite the contrary: Trump's inability to learn or reason means that if Canada engages in novel retaliatory tactics, it stands a good chance of flummoxing the Mad King, leaving him flat-footed and lumbering while it dekes him out and swarms past him. # ⚓ The Kyiv Independent ☛ General_Staff:_Russia_has_lost 1,476,580_troops_in_Ukraine_since_Feb._24,_2022⠀⇛ A January 2026 CSIS report said Ukraine has likely suffered between 500,000 and 600,000 casualties from February 2022 to December 2025, of which between 100,000 to 140,000 are thought to be killed in action (KIA). # ⚓ Yle ☛ Finland_and_Ukraine_reaching_drone_cooperation agreement⠀⇛ The country will send 90 percent of its drone production to Ukraine, says Finnish President Alexander Stubb. o § Transparency/Investigative Reporting⠀➾ # ⚓ Joseph Lorenzo Hall ☛ Cliff_Stoll_at_DEF_CON_34:_The_Best Talk_I’ve_Ever_Seen⠀⇛ He did not bring a polished slide deck.

The quality of water discharged from data centers may affect wastewater treatment processes or the receiving aquatic ecosystem. Data center water use is difficult to quantify comprehensively, and understanding of its potential effects on local water resources is evolving. Some Members of Congress have shown interest in improving understanding of the potential water- related effects of data centers on communities and the environment. In the 119th Congress, some Members have introduced bills regarding water use by data centers. Many of these bills are related to gathering and publishing data on data center water use, as well as other approaches to incentivize certain practices at data centers. Others would support or limit data center development. The questions in this report pertain to direct water use by data centers; a discussion of indirect use, such as the use of water in offsite power generation, is beyond the scope of this report. # ⚓ Inside Towers ☛ Amazon_Abandons_Plans_For_Data_Center Campus_at_Calvert_Cliffs⠀⇛ Amazon Web Services (NASDAQ: AMZN) has withdrawn its proposal to build multiple data center campuses at the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant in Southern Maryland. The proposed project would have covered about 2.4 million square feet. The decision follows strong local opposition to large-scale data center development, including a major political backlash. That opposition was reflected at the polls. In Calvert County’s June 23 primary election, three incumbent commissioners who favored the data center build and opposed pausing that development, lost their respective races, reports Maryland Matters. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ The_Ocean_Hasn't_Been_This_Hot_in_125,000_Years, Alarmed_Researcher_Suggests⠀⇛ Ocean surface temperatures are also steadily creeping up, hitting 70 degrees Fahrenheit this month, the hottest point since records began. That’s despite ocean heat records usually being set in March and April, following the austral summer. In fact, as University of Ottawa environmental studies professor Ryan Katz-Rosene pointed out in a tweet over the weekend, this new record may be a new high “for the entire Holocene period, and possibly even as far back as the last Interglacial 125,000 years ago.” “Should be major news!” he argued. # ⚓ BBC ☛ World's_oceans_hit_highest_temperature_on_record_as El_Niño_grows⠀⇛ The average surface temperature of the planet's seas outside the polar regions hit 21.1C (70F) on Saturday, according to figures from the European Copernicus climate change service. That edges past the 21.09C recorded on three separate days in March 2024, and is far above average for the time of year. # ⚓ India Times ☛ Nvidia_invests_in_data_center_developer Cloverleaf_Infrastructure⠀⇛ Financial terms of the investment were not disclosed. # ⚓ Energy Mix Productions Inc ☛ Alberta_Minister_'Peppered with_Profanity'_Over_AI_Data_Centre⠀⇛ Glubish also took heat for the Smith government’s use of the notwithstanding clause, a once-rarely- used provision that can override rights in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. “How can we trust you guys when you constantly lie and show us how slimy you are?” asked one man. # ⚓ Cowboy State Daily ☛ Developers_Now_Targeting_Public_Lands To_Build_Huge_AI_Data_Centers⠀⇛ The project could set a precedent for building AI data centers across the country on public land. It isn't happening in Wyoming — yet — although the state has one of the most aggressive data center developments as companies propose huge projecrts here. “I can tell you from a Wyoming point of view we have no current project applications for data centers on BLM land,” Wyoming BLM spokesperson Courtney Whiteman told Cowboy State Daily. # ⚓ CBC ☛ Why_are_there_suddenly_so_many_data_centres_planned in_Canada?_Your_questions_answered_|_CBC⠀⇛ "For an older-style conventional cloud facility, we might have a couple of megawatts moving into that building, but for AI facilities, it's much more common to see hundreds of megawatts," Anne Pasek, Canada Research Chair in Media, Culture and the Environment at Trent University, told CBC News. These facilities can span thousands of square feet, with "hyperscale" data centres becoming more common. Definitions of hyperscale vary: Some place the threshold at 50 megawatts, others at 100. Just 50 megawatts is enough electricity to power 37,500 homes. # § Energy/Transportation⠀➾ # ⚓ Eesti Rahvusringhääling ☛ Hospital_sees_daily_child injuries_from_electric_scooter_accidents⠀⇛ All serious cases, according to Ustav, are caused by excessive speed and not wearing a helmet.

However, this new breaching solution adds C-UAS abilities to bolster their abilities to clear the way for human soldiers to advance. Breaching operations can be seriously compromised by a determined enemy using increasingly common FPV drone technology and this fact inspired the changes delivered in Sandhills 2.0. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Four_Years_Ago,_a_Crypto_Boss_Went Missing._Now_His_Successor_Has.⠀⇛ “One crypto boss disappearing is bad enough, but two in four years is crazy bad,” said Robert Nogacki, a lawyer in Warsaw who represents Zondacrypto customers locked out of their accounts. “Nothing about this company makes any sense.” # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ An_Early_History_Of_Space_Stations: Where’s_My_Wheel?⠀⇛ Convair had been studying multi-person orbital stations under Krafft Ehricke since the late 1950s. One result was TASSEL, an acronym for the Three Astronaut Space System Experimental Laboratory. Proposed in 1960, TASSEL was a three-man laboratory intended for an Atlas-Centaur launch into a roughly 200-nautical-mile orbit and missions lasting two or three weeks. # ⚓ NPR ☛ Thousands_in_northwest_Indiana_still_without power_nearly_two_weeks_after_storm⠀⇛ The start of the prolonged outage coincided with an announcement by the local power company's parent, NiSource Inc., that it would be paying out around $140 million in dividends to its shareholders. # § Wildlife/Nature⠀➾ # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ 2026-08-14_[Older]_Vast_German wildfire_forces_evacuation_in_Eifel_forest⠀⇛ # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ 2026-08-14_[Older]_Germany: Firefighters_say_Eifel_wildfire_now_under_control⠀⇛ # ⚓ Digital Camera World ☛ These_National_Geographic filmmakers_spent_four_years_following_the_journey_of_a single_lion_cub_–_I_can’t_wait_to_watch!⠀⇛ During this time, the small cub – nicknamed Kio – goes from fighting for survival to becoming leader of the pack, all of which is captured in incredible close-up detail using a full suite of traditional cameras and camera drones. o § Finance⠀➾ # ⚓ Fannie_Mae_lays_off_a_dozen_senior_officials⠀⇛ Bill Pulte is done pulling double duty as head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency and acting director of national intelligence, a shift that coincided with bad news for many top officials at Fannie Mae. A dozen high-ranking officials were laid off from the government-backed enterprise, the Wall Street Journal reported. Pulte took to social media after the cuts were reported, saying that technology “is improving and providing opportunities for us to remove unnecessary processes and unfortunately at times personnel.” o § AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics⠀➾ # ⚓ India Times ☛ Hugging_Face_sale:_AI_startup_Hugging_Face exploring_sale_valuing_it_at_$13_billion⠀⇛ The New ‌York-based ⁠company, which ⁠hosts open- source large language models and datasets, has been working with a bank to gauge bidders' interest, the report said. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Texas_Governor_Suddenly_Turns_on_Data_Centers_as Backlash_Grows⠀⇛ His comments indicate that it’s not just blue states growing wary of data centers. It’s a particularly noteworthy new take for Abbott, who mere months ago was an outspoken supporter of the massive facilities powering the AI boom. Just in November, he gloated that Texas was the “epicenter of AI development,” offering major sales tax exemptions. At the time, Abbott proudly announced that Google was making a major $40 billion investment in the state. The backlash has become one of the biggest uniting, bipartisan movements in the country, turning vast swathes of the population firmly against the tech. Lawmakers are only now starting to catch on that the subject could quickly turn into a major political crisis, which could have significant consequences not just during the upcoming midterms, but 2028’s presidential election as well. The sheer level of opposition is finally dawning on Abbott. # ⚓ Internet Archive ☛ Archiving_Democracy:_How_the_U.S._End_of Term_Web_Archive_Preserves_Government_History_|_Internet Archive_Blogs⠀⇛ Beginning in January 2025, we witnessed an unprecedented removal of material from U.S. federal websites — documents related to education, health, science, and more, gone from public view almost overnight. Dozens of articles appeared on this topic, including this one from IEEE Spectrum, published in February 2025, shortly after the beginning of the new presidential term. The author, Gwendolyn Rak, like many other doing research in this area, noted that not only did individual web pages change or vanish almost overnight, but that the web presence of entire agencies such as the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) disappeared from view. Moments like this are exactly why libraries have collaborated to build the End of Term Web Archive. # ⚓ Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences ☛ Criminal_Deception_in_Silicon_Valley⠀⇛ With entrepreneurial fraud cases on the rise, we investigate how entrepreneurs carry out criminal deception, employing deceptive means to defraud audiences. Analyzing court data from Silicon Valley ventures and their founders prosecuted for fraud between 2000 and 2023, our findings reveal that entrepreneurs carry out criminal deception through a process of façading: Entrepreneurs construct, perform, and protect illusory appearances (façades) that externally project high-growth performance to audiences while masking ventures’ actual underperformance. We identify three forms of façading—surface, reinforced, and deep façading—that are contingent on the severity of the gap that entrepreneurs face between audiences’ performance expectations and ventures’ performance reality. Our theoretical framework captures how entrepreneurs facing minor, wide, and extreme expectation-reality gaps engage in evermore sophisticated efforts to detach the venture’s externally projected appearance from its actual operational reality. Practically, we propose several approaches to deter and detect criminal deception, including the extension of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission surveillance and whistleblower program, investor due diligence reform, and dedicated entrepreneurship education interventions that clearly demarcate when entrepreneurs transgress into criminal deception. We make contributions to literatures on cultural entrepreneurship, organizational wrongdoing, and the social effects of entrepreneurship. # ⚓ Bruce Schneier ☛ Criminal_Deception_in_Silicon_Valley⠀⇛ # ⚓ Michael Geist ☛ Culture_Off_the_Table?_What_the_Collapsed Canada-U.S._Trade_Talks_Reveal_About_the_Carney_Government's Cultural_Policy⠀⇛ I believe the distinction lies, at least in part, in the government and cultural sectors now viewing the issue of cultural protection differently, with the government open to cutting mandated payments for culture and news, but not moving on the power to regulate how culture is distributed and promoted. If true, that represents a significant shift since the cultural sector has long viewed payments as a cornerstone of cultural policy. # ⚓ Brett Chalupa ☛ Why_I'm_Learning_Rust⠀⇛ These questions are valid ones, but they are based upon a flawed premise. It is 100% okay for someone to learn anything without any good reason! Learning can be purely just for fun, based on a hunch, based on an intuition. So while I don't have great answers to those questions, I at least have some hopes and dreams and a few motivating factors. # ⚓ India Times ☛ Orbital_data_center_startup_Starcloud_valued at_$2.3_billion_in_latest_funding⠀⇛ SpaceX's blockbuster IPO ‌has rekindled ⁠investor ⁠interest in the space industry, including in emerging ​areas such as orbital data centers.

Bidad, or Outcry, directed by Soheil Beiraghi, was made without government approval and features the voice of Parastoo Ahmadi, a singer who was sentenced to 74 lashes after performing publicly without a head scarf. Parisa Sohbati from RFE/RL's Negah-e-Farda (Iran Tomorrow) program explains. # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ Iran_protest_victim:_'They_were_shooting to_kill'⠀⇛ Seven months after the bloody crackdown, victims are dealing with permanent physical disability along with losing the opportunity to work or get an education. Obtaining information from within Iran is both difficult and dangerous, and DW's interview partners chose to use pseudonyms for safety reasons. DW was able to contact victims through human rights networks. # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Trump_Threatens_Think_Tank_With_Libel_Lawsuit For_Telling_The_Truth_About_National_Guard_Deployments⠀⇛ But no matter where the National Guard went, the promised reduction in violent crime failed to materialize. It’s an assumption anyone could make, given that it was more a show of force meant to force more cities and states to bend the knee, rather than a well-designed plan to address alleged crime epidemics. The Center for American Progress released a report early last month, one that showed National Guard deployments weren’t doing much in terms of crime. Instead, the administration was spending more than a billion dollars ($1.7 billion at last count) in an attempt to take credit for the status quo: a long, sharp decline in violent crime rates that long proceeded either of Trump’s two presidential terms. # ⚓ TruthOut ☛ WaPo_Ordered_to_Rehire_Karen_Attiah,_Who_Was Fired_for_Charlie_Kirk_Comments⠀⇛ “The ruling marks a landmark moment for press freedom, confirming that corporate media institutions cannot use retaliatory discipline to silence journalists who address uncomfortable truths,” said Democracy Defenders Fund, which signed on to represent Attiah, along with the Washington-Baltimore News Guild, when she filed a grievance against the Post arguing she had been wrongfully terminated. # ⚓ Robert Reich ☛ How_Trump_Plans_To_Silence_CNN,_Jon_Stewart, and_John_Oliver_(the_Same_Way_He_Silenced_CBS_News)⠀⇛ Trump’s game plan is for the Ellisons to control a giant media monopoly — including CBS News, CNN, Comedy Central (home to Jon Stewart), HBO (John Oliver), and even TikTok (where 1 out of 5 Americans now get their news) — to silence criticism of Trump. The Ellisons have already gobbled up CBS and CBS News. If they get Warner Bros. Discovery, they’ll also own CNN, Comedy Central, and HBO. Larry Ellison’s company, Oracle, leads an investor group that holds a majority 80.1 percent stake in TikTok’s U.S. operations. # ⚓ The Walrus ☛ Canada,_You_Don’t_Have_First_Amendment Rights⠀⇛ Clearly something is amiss. If we do not understand what the Charter is, and if we fail to grasp what is in it and what isn’t, we have a real problem on our hands. When citizens do not understand the supreme law of their land, confusing their rights with those of another country, surely the civic health of the nation is at risk. There are certainly similarities between the Charter and the US Bill of Rights. Both documents guarantee a set of liberal democratic rights that include freedom of expression, religion, association, and assembly; procedural protections for those arrested and charged with crimes; a prohibition on cruel and unusual punishments; and equal protection of the laws. Neither expressly includes guarantees of social and/or economic rights, such as the right to food, housing, health care, education, or income support, or the protection of the environment. Like the US, Canada is a federation, and like the US Bill of Rights, the Canadian Charter is binding on all spheres of government but not on private individuals, firms, or institutions. o § Freedom of Information / Freedom of the Press⠀➾ # ⚓ Raw Story ☛ Bezo's_WaPo_humiliated_as_it's_ordered_to rehire_columnist_fired_over_Charlie_Kirk_post_-_Raw_Story⠀⇛ The Washington Post has been ordered by an arbitrator to rehire a Black columnist who clashed with the Opinion page editor who abruptly left the paper just weeks ago. # ⚓ Karl Bode ☛ The_Hulk_Hates_Fascist_Media_Consolidation⠀⇛ Large media consolidation is always harmful.

It said: “Thousands of people are still missing, and the fate of many remains unknown. Many mass graves have yet to be opened. The Yazidi Survivors Law was enacted by the Iraqi state to address the suffering and victimization experienced by Yazidis. Any change or amendment to this law, or weakening it for any reason whatsoever, would amount to evading duties and responsibilities,” the statement said. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Supreme_Court_Allows_Trump_to_Pursue_Mail Voting_Limits,_for_Now⠀⇛ The administration asked the court to clear the way for President Trump’s order that creates “state citizenship lists” and directs the Postal Service to decide who gets a mail-in ballot. # ⚓ Sightline Media Group ☛ ICE_detained_an_Army_sergeant’s wife._His_family_is_still_waiting_for_answers.⠀⇛ On July 11, ICE detained Villafranca Trejo as the family drove home after a trip to Walmart.

Generative AI can produce statements that sound plausible but are false. It’s a problem that becomes much more serious when those statements can influence an investigation or form part of a case presented in court. This has already happened. West Midlands Police used information generated by Microsoft Copilot while preparing material relating to a proposed ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters attending a football match against Aston Villa in November 2025. Copilot referred to disorder at an earlier match between the two clubs. But the match had never taken place. # ⚓ Omicron Limited ☛ Human_rights_rankings_reveal_surprising over-_and_underperformers⠀⇛ A new book co-written by researchers at Binghamton University and the University of Rhode Island provides a framework for comparing human rights practices around the world and over time and identifies overachieving and underachieving nations. The book, "Science and the Study of Human Rights," by Binghamton University professors David L.

Six months later, commercial driverless service remains illegal in the state, and legalization efforts are stalled. In DC, labor unions are fighting legislation that would legalize commercial robotaxis, while lawmakers are weighing a 200-vehicle cap and a 15- cent-per-mile fee that would fund Metro upgrades and aid workers displaced by autonomous vehicles. A July City Council hearing on the proposal stretched for a grueling 10 hours. # ⚓ Ken Klippenstein ☛ The_Most_Dangerous_Feds_You’ve_Never Heard_Of⠀⇛ Nested within ICE is an American Stasi with the power to target U.S. citizens. Called Homeland Security Investigations, or HSI, it is the country’s second-largest criminal investigative agency behind only the FBI — though with broader authorities.

The Justice Department’s ongoing attempt to turn 15 Minnesota anti-ICE activists into a sprawling “Antifa” conspiracy opened a rare window into HSI, with disclosures that are equal parts creepy and hilariously inept, including: [...] # ⚓ NPR ☛ 'It_embarrasses_me_to_be_involved':_Inside_the National_Guard_D.C._deployment⠀⇛ "I will say very frankly that the bad taste that this mission left in my mouth, it actually embarrasses me to be involved in any way," one guard member who was part of the deployment for several months recently told NPR. o § Internet Policy/Net Neutrality⠀➾ # ⚓ Inside Towers ☛ FCC_Says_Broadband_Deployment_Is_Reaching More_Americans⠀⇛ The FCC, in a report released last week, says broadband deployment is progressing at a reasonable pace, with fewer Americans lacking high-speed internet access.

The decline reached about 43 percent over two years. Despite the improved availability, about 10.6 million people still lacked access to those fixed terrestrial speeds as of June 2025, including more than 9 million rural residents and about 500,000 people on Tribal lands. # ⚓ Ana Rodrigues ☛ )Towards_a_personal_online_third-space⠀⇛ This a ramble about what a safe personal online space focused on creativity, community, and self- expression could look like. o § Digital Restrictions (DRM)⠀➾ # ⚓ The Verge ☛ ESPN_streaming_plans_are_getting_more expensive⠀⇛ Though Disney last raised prices across its bundles last year, this is the first increase for ESPN, which rolled out its standalone streaming subscription last August.

(2026). This study by Enders et al (2026) investigates the non-stationary relationship between the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the latitudinal position of the Gulf Stream. While traditional views suggest a consistent, linear connection, this study utilizes satellite data and idealized ocean modeling to demonstrate that the strength and sign of this correlation fluctuate significantly over time. The authors identify an eight-month lag as the primary response window but find that the connection often weakens or reverses. This instability is largely attributed to geographical shifts in atmospheric pressure centers, which alter how wind stress curl impacts the ocean. The findings suggest that the Gulf Stream’s sensitivity depends more on the spatial structure of wind forcing than its sheer intensity.
