Today is the 40th anniversary of the publication of NEUROMANCER, William Gibson's (@GreatDismal) debut novel. Nobody asked me, but I've written an essay commemorating the occasion, complete with pretentious title. profbootyphd.wordpress.com/2…

so is this gonna lead to a lawsuit or what? how can it be legal to always listen to you even if its in the fineprint somewhere
WTF, $3000 Samsung TV has an always-on mic, automatic content recognition, geo tracking, network mapping, and ships your data to Samsung + 400 partners.
Bro Rooted a brand-new 2025 Samsung TV after noticing absurdly targeted ads.
Firmware was locked down, so zero-days it was.
Got a root shell.
then found: always-on voice service, ACR, geo, full telemetry pipeline, and four separate DRM systems.
This isn’t a bug, It’s the product bro.

The Kremlin, Elon and Catturd all agree and stand with the people against the elites.

they lie because they can
They called Jason Arday a fraud, a plagiarist
They said his work was "high school level." They published it in The Times, The Telegraph, GB News. They made him the face of "DEI mediocrity." They hunted him for weeks.
Taylor & Francis investigated twice and found no plagiarism.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Taylor & Francis cleared one paper, but in 2024 its own journal corrected another paper for text overlap, and he admitted errors in his thesis. Ohio State, Glasgow, Durham, Coventry denied he held the visiting posts he claimed. Ohio State had no record of him at all

This man just took the same plastic recorder that used to sound like a dying goose in elementary school and casually started shredding Sultans of Swing on it.
Eyes half-closed, fully committed, fingers flying like he actually practiced this instead of just surviving Hot Cross Buns.
Somewhere a music teacher is watching this and having an existential crisis. The recorder has seen things. It will never be
the same.

“only” 42 percent of students progressed TWICE as fast as projected by national averages in both math and reading. wow alpha school sounds like such a failure
My deep dive on the "A.I.-driven" Alpha School, revealing their internal learning and enrollment data for the first time, just as the network expands into public education.
There is a big gap between the marketing and reality.

This will become a puppy mill and just kill a lot of dogs. It will deliver zero viable products and just exists to steal DoD and VC money. Palmer Luckey is a moron grifter, stop giving him money
JUST IN: Palmer Luckey's genetically modified military dog startup, Warhound, comes out of stealth, aiming to create enhanced canines for the U.S. military.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is NOT Palmer's company at all, his company Anduril is only supplying the tech for the dogs, and this is a wholly owed Collosal entiity

There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal U.S. Senator.

I am genuinely astounded that people are white-knighting for Netflix's infinite corporate slop machine which is rightfully being outcompeted by YouTube's bottom-up groundswell of original content made by funny and intelligent young people, often in hours-long videos.

I'm sorry, but none of this is curing cancer. I have nothing against people trying things, but it's a far cry from any significant breakthrough and will lead many down the primrose path of voodoo medicine.
People who cured / are curing their own cancer on X:
1/ @sytses - bone cancer, billionaire founder of Gitlab, developed 10+ personalized therapies for himself.
2/ @paul_conyngham - shrank his dog Rosie's mast cell cancer tumors after chemo and surgery weren't enough. Now backed by YC and Founders Fund
3/ @miriamgonp - stage 4 breast cancer, tumor sequenced, searching for vaccine manufacturer now
4/ @kevinace - stage 4 lung cancer, angel investor in 300+ companies, first drug stopped working after 18 months. Vaccine designed, now paying $300k out of pocket for the vaccine
5/ @masonbgrant: going founder mode on his his 32-year-old wife's rare liver cancer, sequencing her tumor with AI agents
6/ @ArunRLverma: former product leader at Atoms and Shopify, brain tumor, built a vaccine from his tumor. Now building an AI health agent startup based on what he went through
We're going to make it

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.. He is not going to sue them because he doesn't want lawyers looking into his shady deals.. 👍
.@VanityFair posted an excerpt from a book containing outrageous and categorically false allegations.
The allegations made by this author are completely insane and never happened. We denied every one of these claims on the record, yet the author failed to provide a single shred of evidence to substantiate any of them. No bank statements, wire transfer records, account numbers, transaction dates, or other verifiable details were provided to support these extraordinary accusations.
During the period in question, I was one of the most scrutinized people in the world, subjected to intense media coverage, multiple congressional investigations, and a special counsel investigation. I voluntarily cooperated with these investigations, providing over 30 hours of testimony. None of these allegations ever surfaced, because none of these events ever happened.
These are outrageous fabrications being presented as investigative journalism. This is not journalism. It is a mixture of fantasy, fiction, and advocacy, written by someone who is either deeply disturbed or acting with sinister intent.
"I stood next to my wife in the kitchen and told her not to put thallium in my spaghetti. For the record, zero 'coercion' required. It brings her joy not to slowly poison me over the course of months."

Classic thing Republicans do when their President fucks things up. “I’m not even paying attention to politics anymore, are you? Loser.”
Professor Booty PhD retweeted
That fits. Overconfident and impulsive action which ignores the warnings of the more sober-minded and only ends up ruining something priceless. Pretty much describes the last few years of right-wing politics.
🚨NEWS: Pete Hegseth wanted a priceless World War II-era globe used by Dwight Eisenhower displayed in his Pentagon office, but instead of waiting for professional curators, his staff attempted to move the historic artifact themselves and DROPPED IT, puncturing the globe near Antarctica and breaking its mounting, according to The Washington Post. The Pentagon confirms the damage.
