Who thinks this is clever, not creepy!?!?

≈1998, someone serendipitously gave my landline as a fake number¹ to escape a bad interaction.The guy was convinced his target was my roommate & called every few days for a month — even though I told him that it wasn't the right number.

Eventually he argued:“C'mon, man,you know I'm just trying to do my thing!”

I quipped:“so, your thing is…harassment?”

He *still* called one last time after that!🤦

U.S. takes 10% stake in Intel as Trump flexes more power over big business


Trump tweet:

It is my Great Honor to report that the United States of America now fully owns and controls 10% of INTEL, a Great American Company that has an even more incredible future. I negotiated this Deal with Lip-Bu Tan, the Highly Respected Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The United States paid nothing for these Shares, and the Shares are now valued at approximately $11 Billion Dollars. This is a great Deal for America and, also, a great Deal for INTEL. Building leading edge Semiconductors and Chips, which is what INTEL does, is fundamental to the future of our Nation. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

GPS in tilt sull’aereo di von der Leyen, sospetti su Mosca: l’UE promette nuove misure euractiv.it/section/mondo/news…


Comunque il mondo fa schifo ma non é vero che l'umanità fa schifo, (non tutta almeno) non é vero che non abbiamo imparato niente dal passato, la storia la decide chi ha il potere e chi ha il potere in genere tende a fare schifo, ma le persone, tante persone insieme, adesso come in passato, si uniscono, si organizzano e si muovono contro, e la storia la fanno loro, la fa la massa critica che si oppone alla mancanza di umanità e che ricorda a chi non lo sa più che siamo tutti umani. #stayhuman #flotillasumud #freepalestine

Wait. The point of the unbelievable amount of telemetry you can't even disable was to collect info in situations like this. Right? Why is there telemetry if they have to ask?

Edit: title of the article is a bit misleading, as I obviously commented before reading the article.

The "another" company they are in contacting is Phison, the manufacturer of thr affected controllers, so it doesn't sound as bad as from the title

They have received no official reports, and cannot reproduce the issue. I'm betting this is a case of a couple drives failing and then everyone screaming at MS without any verification.


"Why BBC editors must one day stand trial for colluding in Israel's genocide"

Journalist Peter Oborne lists six ways the BBC has wilfully misled audiences on Israel's genocide. He did it face-to-face with BBC news's Richard Burgess.

Oborne cited a damning report that analysed the BBC's coverage Oct 2023-24 showing systematic, long-term skewing of coverage in Israel’s favour.

At the very core of environmental collapse and the Sixth Great Mass Extinction, is the Great Men / Big Men syndrome. An elite group of men have got totally out of balance with all other nature. Their destructive power threatens to overwhelm all life. Their lust for domination will wreck all before it.

Apple accuses former Apple Watch staffer of conspiring to steal trade secrets for Oppo


I wanted to post this yesterday, but my instance was having issues the entire day. Apologies if this is a repost.

Shi allegedly sent a message to Oppo saying that he was working to “collect as much information as possible” before starting his job. And he searched the internet for terms like “how to wipe out macbook” and “Can somebody see if I’ve opened a file on a shared drive?” from his Apple-issued MacBook before leaving the company.


For someone who is presumably pretty intelligent, this is pretty dumb.

in reply to puppinstuff

If they just made up a bunch of accusations with paltry evidence to prove it, the scandal would make headlines. "iPhone maker found to be full of shit in court!" is clickworthy gold. I don't think your stance is very strong. Every entity tries to spin things in their favor, but you make it sound like they'd bring an empty case and they very much would not. No one starts a lawsuit they don't think they can win unless they're someone with no credibility and endless money like Elon Musk (see lawsuit against Apple and OpenAI) or oil companies going after environmental lawyers.
in reply to some_guy

I politely disagree. Apple legal will most certainly make extreme accusations and throw the book at individuals as a deterrent to other staff who may be considering bringing “trade secret” knowledge with them as they leave. Which is basically turns any kind of creative solution to a tech problem into a “trade secret” 🍆in this reality of patents and intellectual property.

I suspect that this person thought they were getting away with something minor and it’s being spun into mustache-twirling supervillains as a warning to staff.

I prossimi telescopi potrebbero avere una forma totalmente nuova. Perchè? Perché la geometria classica circolare ha raggiunto i suoi limiti quando si tratta di scovare pianeti come il nostro nella loro zona abitabile. Un design rettangolare da 1x20 metri potrebbe trovare 30 mondi simili alla Terra in soli tre anni, superando ostacoli tecnici che bloccano i telescopi tradizionali. La soluzione è più semplice di quanto sembri: stesso risultato, tecnologia diversa.

#LakeSuperior facts

There is enough water in Lake Superior alone to cover the entire land mass of North and South America in 12in (30cm) of water.

The temperature of the lake water below 200m (110 fathoms) is an almost constant 4 degrees Celsius. The water above varies seasonally but twice per year the entire water column will be a constant 4 degrees (Celsius) and allows the waters to mix. This property makes it a dimictic lake.

Waves as high as 9m (30ft) have been recorded. 6m (20ft) waves are common during storms.

At some of the deepest parts, water can get as cold as 1.1 degrees Celsius. This has some interesting side-effects.

I'll go over some in a reply with an appropriate spoiler

Ukraine shoots down Russian Orlan 'mother drone' carrying FPVs for first time, military says


Ukrainian anti-aircraft gunners shot down a Russian Orlan drone carrying two first-person-view (FPV) drones under its wings for the first time, the 118th Separate Mechanized Brigade reported on Aug. 22.

This marks the first time the Ukrainian military has destroyed a so-called "mother drone" carrying other UAVs, the brigade claimed.

"Anti-aircraft gunners from the 118th Separate Mechanized Brigade destroyed an enemy Orlan drone carrying two FPV drones under its wings," the unit said in a Facebook post.

"Prior to this, the pilots of the pursuit platoon had already shot down dozens of enemy reconnaissance drones — Orlan, Zala, and Supercam — but this was the first time they had managed to destroy a mother drone."

The Orlan is a Russian-developed reconnaissance drone widely used by Russia in Ukraine. Feared by Ukrainian soldiers, it often serves to target Russian artillery attacks. It can travel 600 kilometers and climb to an altitude of 5,000 meters.

European postal services suspend shipment of packages to US over tariffs


ATHENS, Greece (AP) — The end of an exemption on tariff duties for low-value packages coming into the United States is causing multiple international postal services to pause shipping as they await more clarity on the rule.

The exemption, known as the “ de minimis” exemption, allows packages worth less than $800 to come into the U.S. duty free. A total of 1.36 billion packages were sent in 2024 under this exemption, for goods worth $64.6 billion, according to data from the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol Agency.

It is set to expire on Friday. On Saturday, postal services around Europe announced that they are suspending the shipment of many packages to the United States amid confusion over new import duties.

I made it to episode 14 of Season 1 before deciding that the level of violence and vengeance exceeded my tolerance levels. It was similar for me with Vincenzo. There's amazing acting and production, and a lot of interesting story elements in both shows, but I don't want to dwell on that level of anger and hate.
I LOVE #LeeJeHoon, but I doubt that I'll return to that series.

@EllenInEdmonton thanks. #Vincenzo was ok for me, definitely not the most violent #kdrama I watched. I dropped Sweet Home S2 and Death's Game because of the violence. Some sageuks are hard to watch too, when the disregard for human life is too strong.
But I could endure The Glory (barely) and D.P.

An emergency NATO–Ukraine Council meeting will be held in Brussels on September 1 at Ukraine's request, following Russia’s recent large-scale airstrikes. Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha said the session will focus on joint responses to Russia’s refusal to pursue peace and its escalation of terror. He thanked NATO allies for their continued support, stressing that Moscow must face stronger pressure for prolonging the war.

Common wind, il titolo inglese originale che riprende un sonetto del poeta William Wordsworth dedicato al rivoluzionario Toussaint Louverture, è anche il titolo della tesi di dottorato di Scott, considerata “la tesi di laurea in scienze umane e sociali in lingua inglese più letta, ricercata e discussa del XX secolo”. Copie pirata di quella tesi sono circolate tra gli storici come un “mixtape underground” per più di trent’anni attraversando due generazioni di accademici e contribuendo a definire l’emergente campo della Storia dell’Atlantico. La ricerca innovativa di Scott troverà il giusto riconoscimento solo molti anni dopo quando sarà pubblicata in forma di libro dall'editore anglo-americano Verso nel 2018 ricevendo infine tutta l'attenzione che meritava.

Vous avez l'impression que l’État dépense beaucoup pour l'éducation nationale et que pourtant les conditions d'enseignement se dégradent?

Voilà la réponse : le gouvernement surévalue le budget de l'éducation nationale de 10%.

L'économiste Julien Grenetle a démontré que le budget est artificiellement gonfle par la prise en compte des cotisations retraites payées par les fonctionnaires de 74% du salaire brut (contre 17% dans le privé)

La dépense par élève dans le premier degré, est en fait inférieure de 19 % aux autres pays de l'OCDE.

Au final, la France dépense bien peu pour ses élèves.
