In the first 100 days I will dig down into the place of honor. On day one I will issue an Executive Order that the radical woke warning signs be removed and anyone perpetuating the "dangerous and repulsive" lie to be terminated. I will restore the country by touching the ancient treasures.
When EA hits upon a way of increasing productivity do they get their workers to make the same amount of game in less time or to make more game in the same amount of time? And, is there some reason they expect their customers' bosses to make a different calculation?
This man is betting three billion dollars on the idea that businesses will say "well it's Wednesday afternoon and we've met our quota for the week, send everyone home with full pay and we'll start again on Monday"
Sometimes a user will post a joke and then that very same user will post something sincere. And I as the reader am expected to understand this, using my brain?
Thing is, there is so much global infrastructure dependent on these companies that if and when they crash they will need to be bailed out and I'm a little worried that this would give Trump the opportunity to "nationalise" them into his imperialist fiefdom.
"So, you're saying a third of the stock market is tied up in seven AI companies that have no way to become profitable and that this is a bubble that's going to burst and take the whole economy with it?" "Yes" pluralistic.net/2025/09/27/e... By Cory Doctorow
"When they put the magic wig on they have to pretend not to have personal values and that's just a really good and reliable system that I like but I can today expose that some liberal judges MIGHT NOT BE PRETENDING HARD ENOUGH!"
Just so hamfisted to directly cite the principle of impersonal rule (we are ruled over by recallable agents who apply the democratically determined law and the system is insulated from the personal whims of those in charge) only to then make the earth-shattering revelation that judges have opinions.
I apologise for applying logic to inane bullshit but it's very funny that he goes out of his way to make the point that the wig represents the separation of personal perspective from judicial function before going on to criticise what judges do in their own personal capacities outside the courtroom.
Jenrick delivers one of the most asinine speeches I have ever heard. He even brought along a prop, to explain how a judge becomes impartial setting aside personal views, then went on to attack judges for having views. His solution? Abolish tribunals. And who will adjudicate cases? Pfft. Details. ~AA
Keir Starmer’s spokesman asked about Israel detaining British citizens who were on the Gaza aid flotilla, while in international waters, replies that it is a “matter for the Israeli Government”
I think it's suspicious that he's the only billionaire who isn't funneling a private fortune into some absolutely unhinged, self-aggrandising social project.
EXCLUSIVE: At least 20 incidents linked to anti-migrant protests, racism and the far right in the last two months have exposed rising political tensions across Scotland
They include attacks on mosques, hotels, alleged assaults – and the jailing of a neo-Nazi for slashing a student with a knife
The far right mobilising in the street against sex workers, which is what this is, is more than a niche curiosity and it's weird that no one in replies or quotes is talking about it in these terms.
For those who take a niche interest in the Americanisation of UK rightwing politics, formerly Tory-linked student group Turning Point are increasingly going down the Charlie Kirk-type evangelical path.
[Not the point, but I love the idea of 2025 Soho being some hotbed of sin]
Men in balaclavas set fire to a mosque in East Sussex last night. It's only appearing on the BBC's local coverage, rather than its main national headlines, despite coming just a week after the (also under-reported) firebombing of an asylum hotel in London last week www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
The Home Office sham "consultation" on cumulative protests closed on 29 September, so this immediate announcement shows Labour had already decided – yet again – to expand public order powers, well before the Manchester attack that is now used to justify it www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...
Every week we get another indication of how likely Reform is to form the next government and Labour panics and announces another reactionary policy to appease right wing voters, witlessly centralising more authoritarian power in the state they are about to hand over to Nigel Farage.
