Hardware executive Caitlin Kalinowski announced today that in response to OpenAI's controversial agreement with the Department of Defense, she’s resigned from her role leading the company's robotics team.
EFF is appalled by how quickly and uncritically internet restrictions are being adopted around the world, David Greene told CNET. "Even if they are under 18, or under 16, children have the right to access information, to speak and to associate.” www.cnet.com/tech/servic...
Investigators now say the U.S. likely bombed a girls’ school in Iran, killing over 160 people, mostly children. If confirmed, it would rank among the worst civilian massacres of America’s Middle East wars.
“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”
That’s what the President of the United States is saying to the American people.
He won’t be hurt by a retaliatory attack or high gas prices. But you will — and that’s a sacrifice he’s willing to make.
My current enemies are not in Iran, they’re in the Epstein Files.
Oil up by $12 a barrel in less than 12 hours.
Gas prices skyrocketing.
Almost 100,000 jobs lost last month.
Another war in the Middle East.
Are we great again yet?
How come “How are you going to pay for it?” is never asked about endless war?
A big thank you to Anthropic!
After a weeks-long standoff between the Defense Department and AI firm Anthropic over how the military can deploy its technology, CEO Dario Amodei said tonight that the company will not loosen its usage policies.
Just got off the phone with President Trump. In our meeting earlier, I shared my concerns about Columbia student Elmina Aghayeva, who was detained by ICE this morning. He has just informed me that she will be released imminently
while it is a relief to see Discord is no longer partnering with Persona and the age verification rollout has been delayed, that fact they still plan to go through with it is not great. Age verification doesn't ever reduce harm to children, just makes it easier to track people online.
Just a reminder while this is a victory, it's not over yet until Discord completely gives up on the age verification nonsense. Don't resubcribe to Nitro immediately.

I’ll give shadow acknowledgement for the piranhas and eels though. The classics: Yeti, Tigers, Henchmen with wrenches, Atlantean mutants, bats, mutant mummies, birds, spiders, STATUES, 🐉, T-Rexes, raptors etc etc… like, it’s not on the same level…
The variety in enemy types in the reboots: Man. Large man. Giant man. Large cats. Bear. Horde of men. Boss fights: Man. Helicopter. 🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱
They need to be talking vehicles, underwater vehicles/tools/gear, horses, VARIETY in enemy types! FEMALE enemies (!I’ve been asking this since Underworld) better overhang climbing+mixing it with crevice exploration, mixing and matching weapon add-ons (the classics did this)…
Tomb Raider has had that damn ledge system since Tomb Raider: Legend. Time for a new, universal traversal mechanic! Breath of the Wild out-explored Tomb Raider, and out-vehicled(‼️) it while TR having a similar, if not larger, budget.
Counterpoint: No.
ICE doesn’t need reform. Abolition and prosecution is the bare minimum.
I just want to live in a country where the leader can’t enrich themselves with our tax dollars, the government does what the people want, and the wealthy have to follow the laws.
You know, like a democracy.
You can keep saying they r dumb LOL, I mean moreso it’s intentional

Somehow, all the programs that help the majority of Americans are decried as “wasteful spending,” but the ones that help billionaires aren’t…
Funny how that works.
Activists are urging New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation to cut ties with the ICE contractor.
Great to see an article about the TRLE community! (Never heard the phrase "mapping community" though, sounds kind of cartographic 😄)
It doesn't go into much detail but I think it's a good introduction for people who've never heard of it before 😊 #TombRaider
Still waiting for just one member of legacy media to call for Trump’s removal from office. Just one.
