Like the old saying goes, when you have your opponent on the ropes you make a deal to give him 1-2 weeks to recover
Latest intel: The 5 govt funding bills will pass, & the 6th, the DHS bill, will get a continuing resolution to buy time to negotiate whatever these conditions in ICE are. The fight right now btwn Schumer & the White House is how long that CR will be. The WH wants 3 months; Schumer wants 1-2 weeks.

Homemade mobile soundsystem/behemoths in Africa and Southeast Asia are an obsession of mine. Thai dudes plugging a phin into a bank of effects and turning pop ballads into mind-blowing psychedelica are a particular favorite

I've been playing with the new 3D printer I got over winter break (Bambu P2S). I designed and printed these three (approximate) space-filling curves: Peano's (blue), Hilbert's (purple), and Moore's (orange). The walls are 1 mm wide and 6 mm high, so they flex when you hold them. I was going to

On Twitter I used to follow a bunch of 3D artists and/or game devs who would post little short clips of, like, a glitter jelly cube rotating

The altnps account is the 13th most followed account on Bluesky and has more followers than every single news outlet other than the NYT, NPR and Meidas Touch on here. They actively spread misinformation and exploit gullible old people for cash. Accounts this unethical do not deserve to exist.
Completely insane. AltNPS claimed to know the name of Alex Pretti's killer, refused to say it because "the truth always comes out," and then just deleted the post.

A man was executed on the street in my hometown, and AltNPS is using that as an excuse to vaguepost for attention.

One way that the organizers get information about who needs money on the inside is a parabolic microphone that allows them to hear the detainees from a distance.

They’ll coordinate and share the A-number (alien registration number) of people most in need when they’re getting yard time.

Q: so we shut down DHS and that shuts down ICE, right?

AltNPS posted about Alex Pretti's murder 25 times since this morning. During that time, they spread misinformation about the shooting, lied about knowing the shooter's name, and generally flooded the zone with shit.

They're trying to milk this story for all it's worth.
