This is so unhinged

"He told me that he doesn't understand what's wrong with Minnesota. 'I don't know what's wrong with you people,'" Walz said Wednesday in an exclusive interview with MS NOW senior national and political correspondent Jacob Soboroff.
"I said, 'Nothing's wrong, Mr. President. We're one of the most effective states and one of the best places to live?
"And he told me, 'Well, look, Tim, we did this in New Orleans, we did it in Louisville, there's no problems? And I said, 'You didn't kill anybody in Louisville or New Orleans. And the operation here looks very different from that.?
"And then he told me it was successful in Venezuela," Walz said.

European search engines instead of google (although some do use google or Bing in the background, more privacy friendly though):

Ecosia uses 100% of its profits for the planet and produces enough renewable energy to power all searches twice over.

NEW: Google is hosting a CBP app that uses facial recognition to identify immigrants, and tell local cops whether to contact ICE about the person, while also removing apps designed to warn communities about ICE officials.

Used DeepSeek V3.2 via #veniceai with local memory for non coding stuff the last couple of days. I must say I'm impressed how far open and private models have come. Barely used perplexity or gemini(my go to non coding AI). Cool!

I think #maple Private AI Chat is a great step in the right direction, but the models they offer are old. It's not worth it imo

The nurses are pissed

nursesonja • 7h
& Threads
Let us not forget, it was the same administration that reduced us to wearing trash bags as protective gear while we watched the hospital go up in flames around us during the pandemic that just murdered one of our own on the streets in broad daylight. As a nurse & as a person, I will never forgive. I will never forget. I will never back down. This was never about border control.
This is about total control.

How I imagine the future of shipping, using Google's UCP and x402 with an agent.

Is this the future?

Prototype an agentic shopping flow where your agent: searches via MCP/A2A → builds carts via UCP → simulates checkout, leaving payment either to traditional rails or a sandbox AP2/x402 integration.
