Well, okay, good I guess, can't help but notice we're putting in AI regulations to protect the real estate industry before banning creepshow AI-porn-of-actual-people apps but alright
Starting January 1st, California will mandate that any use of AI-altered real estate photos in listings be disclosed, and that a link to the unaltered image be included.
It will be a criminal offense to fail to make this disclosure.

No, there is no ceasefire in Gaza
Israel’s bombing of Gaza is not a ‘violation of the ceasefire'. It is a continuing genocide under diplomatic cover.

Zohran Mamdani chastised a Manhattan synagogue that hosted an event promoting migration to Israel and settlements in occupied territories. His stance further tested his strained relationship with pro-Israel Jews in New York.

No, that's a cassowary. A casserole is a lubricant and old-time laxative
casserole? oh that's easy. a casserole is a giant flightless bird with a big battering ram on top of its head.
What’s casserole?
Seriously, I’ve never eaten one in my life.
Is a lasagna a casserole? How about a shepherd’s pie?

Canada's grievous lack of badly needed affordable housing goes hand in hand with a massive oversupply of overpriced condo units that sit empty. Both of them spring from the same cause: putting our trust in private enterprise to manage basic public needs.

Archetypal example is “capitalism ground me down so I quit my job and set up a small business so that I’m my own boss”. You didn’t dislike capitalism! You disliked authority!

The important context left out of most western reporting on the region is that in Israel, "terrorist" is a racial slur
60%+ of Israelis surveyed don't thing the abuses of Palestinian prisoners should be investigated.
84% say the IDF should get an excellent or very good grade for *moral conduct*.
62.5% say a 'terrorist' should be murdered even if they don't pose a threat.

Really looks like the United States is about to launch a regime change war against Venezuela with:

-No authorization from Congress

-No plan for a post-Maduro Venezuela
-No preparation for any sort of stabilization or containment of the fallout

When the prison guards went on strike, many inmates said they were doing so to preserve their ability to do things like this.
A @nytimes.com investigation has found that state prison guards have been credibly accused of engaging in such behavior — putting inmates in restraints and then assaulting them — far more often than was previously known.
