I want to say how amazed I am by #Claude… I asked it to create EQ profiles for #SoundSource (by RogueAmoeba) for #Meze Albas, 99 Neos, and a custom set of Grados with Symphones V9 drivers and they are fantastic! I feel like I’m living in the future, today.

Trump pulled the US out of the World Health Organisation yesterday.

In response California has become the first state to join the WHO’s Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network.

If this is the start of a pattern Americans will only be safe in Blue states.

Good, clear explanation. FYI.
FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

If there are any #Apple product people here, I want to know why we cannot have Auracast support on MacOS and iOS? I do love the Accessibility settings for MFi devices and the features work well. But to get HD audio I have to use a Jabra Streamer ($250). Dumb, more wires, less flexible. Not “magic”.

“Our investigation revealed that Donald Trump is the person who caused Jan. 6, that it was foreseeable to him and that he sought to exploit the violence,” Smith testified. Yet Trump continues to lie the election was “rigged” & threaten prosecutions.

really like this graphic, and it shows something notable -- the shift away from Trump among his newest supporters has not only reversed his 2024 gains but extended his losses even further

Let's see the contract and have the government of Greenland confirm the execution of said contract, terms and duration of the agreement first. Otherwise, it is a lie.

Choice of words is important. JD Vance calls peaceful protesters “rioters”. He calls black and brown people “illegal aliens”. These are unproven claims before the fact. Kavanaugh Stops allow them to suspend Due Process. Their app uses geolocation and facial recognition to automate ICE targeting.
