Growing up hearing βWikipedia isn't a valid sourceβ and then entering a workplace where people say βjust ask ChatGPTβ is a surprisingly strange timeline

Nice going, everyone.
Alabama passed a law, 138 votes to nothing, that makes every phone user in the state prove their age before downloading a single app.
A 45-year-old who wants a news app has to hand ID to Google first. Existing accounts get no pass either. Every one of them must be verified by October 2027.
Teenagers will need a parentβs sign-off to install Wikipedia, Duolingo or a Bible app, and kids without a parent to ask get locked out completely.
Apple, Google and Amazonβs lobby group has now sued to block it on First Amendment grounds.

Despite what the media constantly tells you, the United States is the true rogue state in the world.

Obama tonight on his Cheesecake Factory line: "They mobilized a whole of government response to that joke. Not to inflation, but to that joke. The White House even called the Secretary of the Treasury. This is the man who is in charge of the economy. The person who's supposed to be figuring out how to make your life more affordable. The guy who's supposed to be figuring out how to lower inflation. And reduce interest rates. They told him he should hold a press conference in front of the Cheesecake Factory."

Yeah bro itβs lit. We got a newly verified species that was the source of controversy for actual decades and still requires a lot of study. And weβre gonna sell it on the open market to a private bidder with no guarantee of it being accessible to research institutions. Itβs lit.

Can we also talk about how Wikipedia entries are no longer at the top of a search π

Planting new trees doesnβt magically undo the destruction of an entire ecosystem. You cannot replace centuries of biodiversity with a few saplings. Companies that destroy our natural resources should face severe penalties, including permanent closure when warranted. Weβve reached a point where protecting the planet is treated as optional, and that needs to change.

Google did this to build a data center in Finland.
It was illegal, but they did it anyway.
Big Tech is out of control.

We are literally entering a dystopian timeline. π€
We have all the resources and money to protect the remaining forests worldwide, yet rich companies/people are deciding to finish them all off for DATA CENTRES! π€¦π»ββοΈπ€¬
Google illegally cleared an estimated 250,000 trees across 330 hectares of forest in Muhos, northern Finland, to prepare for a new AI data center before completing mandatory environmental impact assessments
And another 150,000 trees felled at OtanmΓ€ki

Donβt see myself topping this view for a while. Still canβt get over how gorgeous this hike was! I couldnβt have had better timing for the larches, and I get the hype now

They broke Eisenhowerβs globe because they didnβt want to wait for a team of specialist historians to move it.
I cannot think of a more apt metaphor for Pete Hegsethβs DoD.

I donβt care what side of the aisle youβre on, nobody should support this kind of deception.
They created a fake pamphlet to spark trans outrage and sent it to every home in Texas.
Then their paid shills continued the outrage on social media.
Politics is broken.
