tutoring center owner spoke up, MAGA propagandist Nick Shirley vanished.
NAZI Elon #JDVance retweeting his lies shows who’s spreading this filth.
This is what fake news looks like:
Strip context. Racialize the story. Blame Somalis. Farm clicks.
Same right-wing grift. Same fake outrage. Nazi playbook

the right just happily continues to successfully build out their fake journalism propaganda empire and the policy response from the left has generally been a sad farting sound followed by some empty lip service to the value of real journalism

Ireland has one of the world's highest concentrations of data centers. The expansion has reshaped the grid & deepened fossil fuel use. As the EU pushes to triple data center capacity, Ireland offers a warning, writes Louis Boyd-Madsen. Read our investigation with AlgorithmWatch:
What Ireland’s Data Center Crisis Means for the EU’s AI Sovereignty Plans | TechPolicy.Press
Louis Boyd-Madsen traces how a model of unregulated digital growth has outpaced energy planning in Ireland, and why it matters for the EU’s AI ambitions.

This thread by @seancasten.bsky.social is so interesting for a bunch of reasons.

First: it's a remarkable demonstration of how X has shrunk to a small, hollow echo chamber silo of center-right dweebs.

Some Chinese media has started a discussion about what to do with Russian territories after Russia collapses. We need a similar discussion in Europe. Who takes what piece of Russia? What is the procedure to remove Russia as a recognized state from the world arena?

This story about real-world #quantum entanglement resources includes a neat explanation of entanglement distillation and dilution, and it’s written by @physicsworld.bsky.social student contributor Daniele Iannotti. Do check it out! 🧪⚛️
What happens to entanglement in real #quantum computers? When physicists @freieuniversitaet.bsky.social started to explore this, they found that the calculus of what can be done, and what can be harnessed, needs a serious retooling. 🧪⚛️ physicsworld.com/a/real-world...

Não abrem. A direita agarra o apoio do povo pela xenofobia e racismo. E depois podem fazer tudo, desde que continuem a dizer ao povo que vive mal por causa dos imigrantes e dos ciganos.

Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies.

For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!

The people who contribute to Twitt-X like to say they're the last bastion of truth, but they're either making money, getting off to the fighting or unwilling to give up the fake prestige of having a "massive" following. An egotistical thing.
That so many of you carry on posting on X encapsulates the problem with authoritarianism. Many people hate it but aren't prepared to make even the tiniest personal sacrifice to oppose it [like foregoing the fun of shitposting on the authoritarian propaganda website].

The show is so well created, that it makes you forget that it's about a young girl that was the victim of CSAM, then revenge porn of that CSAM, and bullying/slut shaming, then attempted extortion, and finally being murdered by an incel who enjoyed that revenge porn, for rejecting his advances.
