I grew up reading The Three Investigators novels (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Thre…) and always enjoyed them.
Recently, I decided to complete the entire series, starting with the ten books originally written by Robert Arthur himself. I'm currently on book #6, The Secret of Skeleton Island.
I highly recommend the series for young adults, as well as for older readers who appreciate a clever, well-paced mystery.
Lucky the United States built that huge surveillance state to aim at itself when things turned tyrant. Exactly like everyone said would happen.

"Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen sind weltweit die Todesursache Nummer eins. Sachsen-Anhalt ist deutschlandweit besonders von ihnen betroffen – nicht nur, weil die Bevölkerung im bundesweiten Schnitt die älteste ist. Risikofaktoren wie Bluthochdruck, Bewegungsmangel oder Übergewicht sind zwischen Harz und Börde häufiger als in anderen Regionen der BRD. Die Folge: Mehr Herzschwäche, mehr Schlaganfälle, mehr Herzinfarkte und die bundesweit niedrigste Lebenserwartung.

The image features a ginger and white cat lying on a white, fluffy rug. The cat has a predominantly white face with ginger patches on its ears, head, and back. Its eyes are a light green color, and it has a pink nose. The cat's body is mostly white with ginger stripes on its tail and legs. In the background, there is a wooden crib with toys, including a yellow toy truck, and a gray dresser. The setting appears to be a cozy indoor environment, likely a living room or nursery.

LibreOffice Podcast, Episode #5 – Accessibility in Free and Open Source Software
Mike Saunders talks to Michael Weghorn, who is working on improving accessibility in LibreOffice. What does "accessible" actually mean? In what ways does software need to be accessible? And how can users help out? We discuss these topics – and more. (Sorry for the lack of live video in the first 10 minutes!)
Wiki page for accessibility, with further links: wiki.documentfoundation.org/Ac…
Accessibility mailing list: accessibility@global.libreoffice.org – Instructions how to subscribe and mailing list archives can be found here: libreoffice.org/get-help/maili…
Accessibility-related tickets in Bugzilla are organized in two ways:
1) Via accessibility meta bugs – link for currently open tickets in that accessibility meta bug hierarchy: bugs.documentfoundation.org/sh…
2) Via an "accessibility" keyword – current list of open tickets that have that keyword set: bugs.documentfoundation.org/bu…

In GrapheneOS, you can now opt into a new feature called security preview releases. This allows you to receive monthly security patches earlier than the standard schedule.
For example, the 2025092701 security preview release already includes additional patches from the November 2025 and December 2025 Android Security Bulletins, along with fixes for several CVEs.
Full details can be found here: grapheneos.org/releases#202509…

"I firmly believe the (economic) AI apocalypse is coming. These companies are not profitable. They can't be profitable. They keep the lights on by soaking up hundreds of billions of dollars in other people's money and then lighting it on fire. Eventually those other people are going to want to see a return on their investment, and when they don't get it, they will halt the flow of billions of dollars. Anything that can't go on forever eventually stops.
This isn't like the early days of the web, or Amazon, or any of those other big winners that lost money before becoming profitable. Those were all propositions with excellent "unit economics" – they got cheaper with every successive technological generation, and the more customers they added, the more profitable they became. AI companies have – in the memorable phraseology of Ed Zitron – "dogshit unit-economics." Each generation of AI has been vastly more expensive than the previous one, and each new AI customer makes the AI companies lose more money:"

"Microsoft "invests" in Openai by giving the company free access to its servers. Openai reports this as a ten billion dollar investment, then redeems these "tokens" at Microsoft's data-centers. Microsoft then books this as ten billion in revenue.
That's par for the course in AI, where it's normal for Nvidia to "invest" tens of billions in a data-center company, which then spends that investment buying Nvidia chips. The the same chunk of money being energetically passed back and forth between these closely related companies, all of which claim it as investment, as an asset, or as revenue (or all three)."
