As a British citizen, we've certainly ejected cunts from power.
The big difference between our system and the US system is that the US system is codified in a single document and as a result it doesn't evolve except through rare amendments. The British constitution is written through precedent. If a situation hasn't occurred before then we decide what to do today. We don't try to take the 250yo (or more) words of people who had never imagined the situations of today and try to apply the right to bear arms on AI powered kamikaze drones.
As a British citizen, we’ve certainly ejected cunts from power.
We've ejected one set of cunts from power but we still have cunts in power and we'll have cunts in power after the next shit show of a popularity contest. Because there is fuck all else to vote for.
Samsung is desperate to compete on chips. Workers say it comes at a cost.
Scarred by long hours, low pay, and a hostile work culture, many chip workers are leaving for competitors, including American companies.
- Once a global leader, Samsung Electronics is losing in the fierce semiconductor race to dominate AI supplies.
- It’s also losing engineers, leaving the remaining staff to work long, intense shifts to compensate for vacancies.
- Engineers say they are required to falsify data and defects are slipping through, affecting chip quality.

Israel furious as France shuts four weapons stands at Paris Airshow
LE BOURGET, France/JERUSALEM, June 16 (Reuters) - France has shut down the four main Israeli company stands at the Paris Airshow for apparently displaying offensive weapons, in a move condemned by Israel that highlights the growing tensions between the traditional allies.
A source familiar with the matter told Reuters on Monday that the instruction came from French authorities after Israeli firms failed to comply with a direction from a French security agency to remove offensive or kinetic weapons from the stands.
Three smaller Israeli stands, which didn't have hardware on display, and an Israeli Ministry of Defence stand, remain open.

There have been some problems with federation lately. I believe the cause is that following piefed communities from other instances has had some bugs, which I've just fixed.
Going to Lemmy, leave the community and then join again will probably help to make future posts arrive. I've already done that for South Africa, you don't need to - I'm just saying it so others can see it.

Is the Gnome Background Apps UI a complete Mess or do I miss something?
Since Gnome 44 there is a new UI to show apps (i.e. messengers, sync clients, ...) that run in the background. It is supposed to take the place of the tray icons. In my experience it's basically not working, though.
The only app I use that uses the UI is the nextcloud client. But that thing's autostart seems to be very unreliable and most of the time I have to start it manually after booting. Could be an issue with the app and not with Gnome, but I don't know.
I also use Telegram and Element, but both still seem to use the old tray icons that you now need to install an extension for to work. Meaning that with vanilla Gnome when you close the Telegram window, the app is stopped and can't receive massages in the background.
Is the new UI broken or are app developers just not implementing it into their apps or what's wrong with the current situaltion?

Hier begegnen sich Science-Fiction, Spionagethriller und Psychodrama auf eine Weise, die fasziniert, weil sie unkonventionell ist. Der Film ist aus 2016 – moralische Fragen und technologischer Nervenkitzel haben in die Zeit gepasst. Was macht einen Menschen aus? Ich gebe zu: zwischendurch habe ich zwar das eine oder andere Mal den Faden verloren – hatte ein starkes Kopfschmerzgefühl – am Ende war ich ziemlich zufrieden. (@3sat)

She married a U.S. citizen for love. After she alleged abuse, he threatened deportation.
Excerpts:
The Facebook message that popped into her account started as a flirtation: "Hey, how are you?"She had newly arrived from Bangladesh to study for her master's in information technology on a student visa in 2022 and wasn't interested in a relationship.
She liked the message. Then he texted again a few days later, "Hey, I have tickets to a Broadway show."
She had never been to a Broadway show before, so she went — and their whirlwind first date quickly turned to love for her and then marriage. […]
Her new husband filed for a green card for his wife. A temporary one was granted, and she moved to his family's house in Brooklyn.
The future seemed bright. […]
Now, just a little more than a year later, the 31-year-old woman, who asked CBS News not to use her name due to safety fears, has separated from her husband after alleging abuse — and is now worried about being deported.
[…]
Crystal Justice, chief external affairs officer at the National Domestic Violence Hotline, told CBS News in a statement that they have seen abusive partners "threatening to deport a partner or their family or withholding legal documents to limit a person's ability to travel."

Oh good, it will be in the public domain.
OpenAI, which is also fighting a string of copyright lawsuits, donated $50 million this year to a group of research institutions including Oxford University’s 400-year-old Bodleian Library, which is digitizing rare texts and using AI to help transcribe them.When the company first reached out to the Boston Public Library, one of the biggest in the U.S., the library made clear that any information it digitized would be for everyone, said Jessica Chapel, its chief of digital and online services.
“OpenAI had this interest in massive amounts of training data. We have an interest in massive amounts of digital objects. So this is kind of just a case that things are aligning,” Chapel said.

Very interesting. But at best a potential fact that needs to be replicated in a large cohort. Don’t assume it’s a proven fact just from this study.
