Trump's government has been arguing that if they claim that someone in the US isn't a citizen, they're not entitled to due process
this is clearly unconstitutional
in March, Timothy Snyder noted the logical endpoint: This means even *citizens* do not reliably have due process, because all the feds have to do is *say* you're not a citizen and ... you can't go to court to prove it

DnB songs are competing with each other on who can have the longest drum pause in their chorus, and I'm all here for it.
Each additional beat of pause makes me enjoy it even more.
For example, here's DNMO's "Together". Check out the section from 2:30 to 3:05, there's 3½ _bars_ of drum pause 😍
Reminds me of Donald Dark's "Sleeping in My Car" medley, where they're gradually increasing the pause between "in my" and "car" at the end of the song 😂

California lawmakers kill plans to curb AI-manipulated prices: calmatters.org/economy/technol…
> A secretive appropriations process killed or reined in three bills regulating the use of pricing algorithms. A bill to monitor data center electricity use was also culled.
A crackdown on predictive software that sets prices and can rip you off seemed to be brewing in the California Legislature earlier this year, but today lawmakers eased up, voting to kill bills that would have kept software from setting the price of apartment rentals and other goods and services. Another bill, which sought to bar the use of personal information to set prices, was reined in to apply only to grocery stores.
Lawmakers also killed a bill that aimed to protect electric utility customers from bearing higher costs associated with data center proliferation […] The measure would have required data centers to publicly disclose how much energy they use.

The image features a humanoid figure with a robotic appearance, set against a solid orange background. The figure is wearing a blue helmet with intricate mechanical details, including a circular visor and a textured surface. The helmet's design suggests advanced technology, with visible seams and rivets. The figure's right hand is raised to its chin, showcasing a mechanical glove with articulated fingers and a wristband, indicating a blend of human and machine elements.

Rudy Giuliani injured in New Hampshire car crash, his spokesperson says
Rudy Giuliani is recovering from a fractured vertebra and other injuries following a car crash in New Hampshire, a spokesperson for the former New York City mayor said Sunday.
Giuliani’s vehicle was struck from behind while traveling on a highway Saturday evening, according to a statement posted on X by Michael Ragusa, Giuliani’s head of security. “He sustained injuries but is in good spirits and recovering tremendously,” Ragusa said, adding: “This was not a targeted attack.”
Giuliani, 81, was taken to a nearby trauma center and was being treated for injuries including “a fractured thoracic vertebrae, multiple lacerations and contusions, as well as injuries to his left arm and lower leg,” according to Ragusa.

My only suggestion to this informative list would be to include what platforms you played these games on and/or what platforms they’re available to play on. I seemed to have a pretty low batting average trying to find them on iOS, for instance. But it’d be good to know where else I COULD play them.

The image is a four-panel comic strip with a colorful, psychedelic background. The first panel shows a character sitting at a desk, looking frustrated and holding a pen, with the text "INFINITE POTENTIAL" above. The character is thinking, "How do I pack this down into something I can actually share?" The second panel depicts the same character holding a small, simple object, looking disappointed, with the text "All that work for this?!" The third panel shows another character handing the first character a small object, saying, "Here you go, I made this, it sucks." The fourth panel shows the first character holding a more complex, colorful object, looking surprised, with the text "Infinite potential." The comic humorously illustrates the struggle of distilling complex ideas into simple, shareable forms.
