Three Hollywood movies were released in 1995 with internet themes: the Keanu Reeves cyberpunk film Johnny Mnemonic (with an accompanying website), The Net with Sandra Bullock, and Hackers.
MEDFORD, OR—Despite evidence that the planets are aligned in his favor, local pagan Jeff Birch, 27, said Monday that he would "rather have a peaceful weekend at home" than attend his family’s Vernal Equinox celebration on March 21.
Perhaps the least surprising things to show up at Vancoufur this year: The Connections Museum having a stall and one of the artists bringing an Amiga to do commissions on. #vancoufur2025
I honestly wonder whether Apple genuinely expected the Personal Context features of Apple Intelligence to be ready by now, or if the WWDC clips and ads it ran were just an optimistic smokescreen.
It's funny, but when I think of factory farms, I don't think of the people -- I use the term loosely -- who run them as "farmers". I just think of CEOs like the ones who've ruined my little world (biotech). To me, "farmer" conjures up the kids I went to school with and their parents, who actually dug in the dirt to grow food. Factory farms make me think of some slick bastard in a suit who's never had dirt under his carefully manicured nails.
@sennoma you're right, and there are good farmers who don't do this stuff. but I think most food in the UK comes from factory farms, which most people think are just farms run by farmers...

All my anarcho-queer sword-and-sorcery zines to date are available through Grinning Kitten Press.
Called "The Copper Sun Cycle," the series follows a nonbinary spellcaster named Axial in a late-neolithic romp through decaying city-states, squabbling utopian communities, & spirit-haunted wildernesses. Their never-ending search for justice & equality puts them up against all sorts of assholes, like dickish warlords, pervy wizards, hellish priests, & worst of all--adventurers.
Silly, serious, & a just a little bit educational, these zines lean on my 20+ years of activism & will leave you imagining other ways we might live our lives. Good times indeed.
The zines themselves are physical objects (not available digitally), free as in trash, & mostly hand-formatted using mixed media collage & glue sticks. Sometimes I convince artists to sell me some illustrations, too.

"Concerned at the UK Government’s intentions to review the #HumanRights framework and #JudicialReview we have come together to state:
While every system could be improved, and protecting #rights and #freedoms for all is a balancing act, our #HumanRightsAct is a proportionate and well-drafted protection for the fundamental #liberties and #responsibilities of everyone in this country.
The Act guarantees the rights to #FreeSpeech and expression, to life, to #liberty, to security, to privacy, to assembly, and to #FreedomOfReligion or belief. It prohibits torture and guarantees fair trials and the #RuleOfLaw.
Judicial review is an indispensable mechanism for individuals to assert those rights and freedoms against the power of the state." humanrightsact.org.uk/

How ProPublica Uses AI Responsibly in Its Investigations —
When our reporters prompted a large language model to help identify “woke” themes in a database of grants, AI helped them tell a vital accountability story about science funding and Ted Cruz. propublica.org/article/using-a…
Nice job using it responsibly. Keep up the good work. People just want to see red once you mention AI, but when used in this targeted way it is very useful and saves time so you can show us these articles sooner. As solitha said, promoting correct usage. Don't mind the hate.
-> looks at a cube... three sides -> turns the cube over... another side -> turns the cube over on the other axis .. another side -> repeats the turning steps a few times -> concludes that a cube has an infinite amount of sides.
To prove this, look at a square piece of paper. It has 2 sides, the front and the back. The mathematical notation for 'square' is with a small 2 to the upper right. The mathematical notation for 'cube' has a small 3 in that location. Therefore, it follows that a cube must have 3 sides.
"The FBI is moving to criminalize groups like #HabitatForHumanity for receiving grants from the #EPA under the Biden administration.
Citibank was told to freeze the groups’ bank accounts at the FBI’s request. The reason? The FBI alleges that the groups are involved in “possible criminal violations,” including “conspiracy to defraud the United States.” "
We really need to stop buying into the argument that #ClimateActivists are "radical" or "destructive". The opposite is true: the nature of the protests have been peaceful and, on the whole, pretty tame.
well, at least now a whole bunch of people who ordinarily would never have been caught dead using electric cars are buying them, just to “pwn the libs.”
Astro Bob on Friday's lunar eclipse and what it would look like to an astronaut on the Moon.
"We'll see the moon glow orange-red during total eclipse. But our astronaut would witness a fiery, red ring ensconcing the silhouetted Earth! What I wouldn't give to be there. Fortunately, we have the next best thing. The Blue Ghost lander , which touched down on the moon last week, will take photos of this unique solar eclipse at the same time we're watching from Earth." duluthnewstribune.com/lifestyl…

Die CEOs der weltweit größten Tech-Konzerne haben sich hinter Donald Trump gestellt. Manche von ihnen beteiligen sich sogar aktiv an dessen zerstörerischer Politik, allen voran Elon Musk. Wir haben mit dem Tech-Journalisten @parismarx über den vermeintlichen Sinneswandel des Silicon Valley gesprochen und welche Form des Widerstands es nun braucht.
The CEOs of the world's largest tech companies have thrown their support behind Donald Trump. Some of them are even actively participating in his destructive policies, most notably Elon Musk.
Has anyone managed to make the #waveshare #ups #hat E work on a #raspberrypi4 ? I have no #i2c data from it at all. Pins look connected. Pi has power over the pins. But no i2c. waveshare.com/wiki/UPS_HAT_(E) Soldered pins also do not work. i2c does not work for protected and unprotected batteries.
Thanks to the magic of the Streisand effect, I just heard about #CarelessPeople - a book by former Meta employee Sarah Wynn-Williams.
Apparently the company is FREAKING OUT and seeking legal ways to stop its promotion. I can see why. This article about it in the Times made my jaw drop: nytimes.com/2025/03/10/books/r…
An update: last night I started reading #CarelessPeople and I cannot emphasize enough HOW GOOD it is. A real page-turner.
No wonder #Meta executives are trying to shut down its promotional tour. They come across as shallow, greedy and irresponsible.
The author wrote in the prelude that working there was "like watching a bunch of fourteen-year-olds who’ve been given superpowers and an ungodly amount of money, as they jet around the world to figure out what power has bought and brought them." 🔥
Yesterday my 4-year-old woke up at 7am thus thwarting my plans to read #CarelessPeople for a good hour.
So today I woke up at 6am to resume reading the book. It’s THAT GOOD.
The leaders at #Meta have been shockingly irresponsible in their decisions since the early days. All they care about? Gathering data and influence and making big bucks. I’m so glad I got out of all their platforms and I’m on the #Fediverse instead.
History books won’t be kind to Zuck, Sandberg et al.
