Republican senator outlines working group’s ideas for extending Obamacare subsidies
The Alaska Republican confirmed his participation in talks that have been ongoing behind the scenes for weeks.“There’s a number of people involved,” said Sullivan in an interview. So far, the only other Republicans to make their participation in the discussions public have been Sens. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska.

js image effect script I made for my personal site doesn't work on LibreWolf, what is conflicting with the privacy settings?
There is no CORS going on, the very same script use canvas on two other sections, so I guess that's not the problem... it works on FireFox but breaks on LibreWolf:
privatebin.net/?401a54f23eea49…
Any idea what part LibreWolf doesn't like? I'd like to fix it to work.
it's weird because the other script in that same .js, showing three random images from a .json list, also use canvas, and it's working fine even on Mullvad and Tor :S

Its because librewolf is adding fingerprinting protection on the canvas element and changes some of its functionality but not all of it.
Canvas elements are used to track and fingerprint folks through tor and mulvad etc.
But its also a pain because of your exact sitch. I run into broken canvas elements a lot with it and selectively disable canvas fingerprint protection

Calls for ‘New Blood’ Grow at Congressional Black Caucus Gathering
The increasing age of Black members of Congress was on the minds of attendees at the conference, a multiday event that started on Sept. 24. Many said that they felt that fresh blood is needed, but it’s unclear how that would happen without veteran lawmakers stepping aside.Younger voters are thought to be the keys to future electoral success, and some members of the Democratic Party have argued that attracting them will require electing younger members. They feel that seasoned lawmakers are out of touch, and don’t have what it takes to lead some of the most pressing civil rights battles of today.
This tension came to a head this month. Robert White, a third-term member of the D.C. Council, announced that he would challenge his former boss, Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton, the district’s longtime nonvoting representative, for her seat in the Democratic primary next year. Norton’s campaign team didn’t respond to Capital B’s request for comment.
Norton has served since 1991, and at 88 years old, she’s the oldest member of the U.S. House of Representatives.
Lauren Ishmael, 67, said that veteran lawmakers are “very smart, very well-informed, and very well-connected.” But she also believes that they need to make room for the perspectives and contributions of younger generations.“We need some younger voices, younger faces, younger experiences,” Ishmael, a first-time attendee, told Capital B, clad in a crimson and cream Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. jacket. “We need young blood.”
Jumping in, Ishmael’s friend and sorority sister Sandra Caldwell, 77, elaborated a bit further and said that younger people “just think differently.”

US engagement with Mali junta exposes double standards
For the Trump administration to open up intelligence-sharing with the junta, such an approach sends a powerful message that the United States – first and foremost – is focused on advancing its fight against “extremist” forces by partnering with regimes that have practiced it themselves. Mali is no outlier when it comes to human rights violations: the regime has advanced extreme legislation that has eclipsed civil liberties, and rights abuses saw a 120 percent increase in recent years.
Where are loud US pronouncements about staying clear of regimes that do not fit the US definition of a democratic system? The fact is that the US itself has been a vocal promoter of terrorism on foreign soil: nearly two decades of Afghanistan’s occupation, the US role in sustaining the Taliban’s power, and its brazen support for "Israel’s" raging genocide – all make it a key figure in creating the unrest that it claims to counter through intelligence-sharing with Mali.

Selling the dead: USC supplied human bodies for 'Israel' war training
The University of Southern California (USC) has received nearly $1.1 million from the US Navy over the past seven years for human cadavers used in military medical training, including courses designed for the Israeli occupation Forces (IOF), according to federal contracts reviewed by Annenberg Media.
Since 2017, the Navy has paid USC more than $860,000 for at least 89 “fresh cadaver bodies,” 32 of which were used by IOF medical teams at Los Angeles General Medical Center. One contract remains active, allowing an additional $225,000 in cadaver purchases through September 2026.
Medical experts are raising alarms over how the bodies are sourced. Many come from the Los Angeles County Office of Decedent Affairs, which handles cremation and burial for unclaimed remains. Others are given away through USC’s Anatomical Gift Program.
“Even though they’re deceased, they still deserve dignity and proper treatment,” said Thomas Champney, an anatomy professor at the University of Miami who studies body donation ethics. He noted that, unlike organ donation, cadaver use is loosely regulated, with most universities operating under “blanket consent” policies.

Indigenous-led protections spark Bali starling’s recovery in the wild
- An Indonesian songbird once nearly extinct in the wild, the Bali starling, is making a comeback through community-led conservation on Nusa Penida and beyond.
- Strict law enforcement and captive breeding failed to reverse the bird’s decline; poaching and habitat loss continued despite decades of formal protections.
- In the early 2000s, conservationists changed tactics, working with communities on Nusa Penida to establish the island as a sanctuary for Bali starlings.
- Villages embraced traditional awig-awig regulations to protect the starling, creating powerful cultural, social and financial deterrents to poaching.

Net zero aviation: turning what is technically possible into something commercially viable
Michael O’Leary, chief executive of Ryanair, dismisses SAF as nonsense. He says: “It is all gradually dying a death, which is what it deserves to do. We have just about met our 2% mandate. There is no possibility of meeting 6% by 2030; 10%, not a hope in hell. We’re not going to get to net zero by 2050.”

The EU and the UK have imposed sustainable fuel mandates, but airlines question supply availability and pricingGwyn Topham (The Guardian)
There’s not a single mention of corn or ethanol in this article, which is an interesting omission. There’s no way to get to global air traffic volumes via used cooking oil.
Not all new biofuel demand would have to be met with corn. Algae, manure and cooking oil (which some airlines already use in small amounts) also could be sources for jet fuel.But experts say the government’s ambitious targets — 35 billion gallons a year of sustainable aviation fuel from all sources by midcentury — require what are essentially dedicated energy crops, particularly corn. To qualify as sustainable aviation fuel under Biden’s tax-credit program, the fuel would have to be produced in a climate-friendly manner, for instance using renewable energy for harvesting, manufacture or transport.
Of course the Biden programs are now being stripped bare, but this source is a couple years old.
Corn doesn’t scale further especially well, either, and it’s greenwashing bullshit.
Corn is a water-intensive crop and it can take hundreds of gallons to produce a single gallon of ethanol. But as airlines embrace the idea of ethanol, prompting lobbyists for ethanol makers and corn growers alike to push for clean-energy tax credits in Washington, vital aquifers face serious risks.Scientific studies have long questioned whether ethanol made from corn is in fact more climate-friendly than fossil fuels. Among other things, corn requires a huge amount of land, and it absorbs relatively little carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere as it grows. Planting, fertilizing, watering, harvesting, transporting and distilling corn into ethanol all requires energy, most of which currently comes from fossil fuels.
The Guardian is discussing European airlines and fuel sources, while NYT is focused on the Biden-era US, but of course there is crossover and they grow corn for ethanol in Europe, too.
Airlines Race Toward a Future Fueled By Corn
Carriers want to replace jet fuel with ethanol to fight global warming. That would require lots of corn, and lots of water.Max Bearak (The New York Times)
Terence Tao says ChatGPT helped him solve a MathOverflow problem and saved hours of manual coding
I was able to use an extended conversation with an AI chatgpt.com/share/68ded9b1-37d… to help answer a MathOverflow question mathoverflow.net/questions/501… . I had already conducted a theoretical analysis suggesting that the answer to this question was negative, but needed some numerical parameters verifying certain inequalities in order to conclusively build a counterexample. Initially I sought to ask AI to supply Python code to search for a counterexample that I could run and adjust myself, but found that the run time was infeasible and the initial choice of parameters would have made the search doomed to failure anyway. I then switched strategies and instead engaged in a step by step conversation with the AI where it would perform heuristic calculations to locate feasible choices of parameters. Eventually, the AI was able to produce parameters which I could then verify separately (admittedly using Python code supplied by the same AI, but this was a simple 29-line program that I could visually inspect to do what was asked, and also provided numerical values in line with previous heuristic predictions).Here, the AI tool use was a significant time saver - doing the same task unassisted would likely have required multiple hours of manual code and debugging (the AI was able to use the provided context to spot several mathematical mistakes in my requests, and fix them before generating code). Indeed I would have been very unlikely to even attempt this numerical search without AI assistance (and would have sought a theoretical asymptotic analysis instead).

Turkish DNS is really an interesting thing. Awhile back, the govt hijacked Google's DNS service via bogus BGP routes so they could block/censor traffic. They then also started directing DNS queries away from the EU and pushing those to APAC.
Not sure what the sites are or what they resolve to on your end, but you might try using openssl to see if its a bad cipher or outdated cert maybe: openssl s_client -connect domain.com:443 -ciphersuites TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 -tls1_3

TikTok has directed children’s accounts to pornographic content within a small number of clicks, according to a report by a campaign group.
Global Witness set up fake accounts using a 13-year-old’s birth date and turned on the video app’s “restricted mode”, which limits exposure to “sexually suggestive” content.
Researchers found TikTok suggested sexualised and explicit search terms to seven test accounts that were created on clean phones with no search history.

ICEBlock Owner After Apple Removes App: ‘We Are Determined to Fight This’
The developer of ICEBlock, an app that lets people crowdsource sightings of ICE officials, has said he is determined to fight back after Apple removed the app from its App Store on Thursday. The removal came after pressure from Department of Justice officials acting at the direction of Attorney General Pam Bondi, according to Fox which first reported the removal. Apple told 404 Media it has removed other similar apps too.“I am incredibly disappointed by Apple's actions today. Capitulating to an authoritarian regime is never the right move,” Joshua Aaron told 404 Media. “ICEBlock is no different from crowd sourcing speed traps, which every notable mapping application, including Apple's own Maps app, implements as part of its core services. This is protected speech under the first amendment of the United States Constitution.”

Kash Patel fires FBI agent trainee for displaying gay pride flag
The FBI employee was fired on the first day of the government shutdown as Trump threatened more terminations.
FBI Director Kash Patel on Wednesday fired an agent in training for displaying a gay pride flag on his desk while appointed to a field office in California last year, according to three people familiar with the matter.
The trainee, who previously worked as an FBI support specialist in Los Angeles, received a letter — dated Oct. 1 and signed by Patel — claiming he had displayed an improper “political” message in the workplace during his assignment in California under President Joe Biden, according to a copy of the letter shared with MSNBC.
The letter cited President Donald Trump’s Article II powers under the Constitution to dismiss federal agency career personnel, a justification used in several recent firings at the Department of Justice and FBI. The terminations are currently being challenged in several lawsuits.

in reply to Peter Link • • •the entire gaza situation is disgusting display of the ruling class' power to genocide yet another group of indigenous people into irrelevance and it's sad to see that nothing has changed about their power since the days of manifest-destiny & cities-of-gold and even more depressing to see the overwhelming majority who are unwilling to rise above the democrat-vs-republican/tory-vs-labour/socdem-vs-afd/renn-vs-rn intentional misdirections that the ruling classes created for them.
i struggle to buy into the m/l & maoist theories that everything will play out eventually in the end, since it carries with it the inherent required acceptance that i will never get to enjoy such a society and that i must endure the asshattery from the overwhelming majority caught up in those intentional misdirections.
the collectivist balm contained in those socialist theories for this social wound is ineffective if you're like me; someone who's barely tolerated by your community due to unconscious neurotypical biases and it makes me wish that those theories could be updated to include a modern day understanding of psychology so that i can find my fold.
