Wow. If I'm not mistaken, this marks the longest-range use of ballistic missiles in warfare to date. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

The pleasure was mine, @mjgault.bsky.social! More on this topic soon.

Common southern experience.

thank you to @francoisdm.bsky.social for walking me through what it would take to neutralize Iran's highly enriched uranium. It would be extremely hard, especially in a war zone.

oh good

my life has never felt more like a weird joke

Marathon anecdotes are contained within

Great reporting from @mjgault.bsky.social on a data center fight in Ypsilanti MI - with the unique wrinkle that this data center would support nuclear weapons development www.404media.co/tiny-city-fe...

update on Ypsilanti, the town attempting to keep Los Alamos and the University of Michigan from constructing a billion dollar datacenter in its backyard the city's attorney gave a long speech during a board meeting this week about a new fear: Drone attacks from America's enemies

Glad to see so much coverage and analysis of Trump's war centering his disastrous 2018 decision to leave the JCPOA, which was working perfectly www.nytimes.com/2026/03/18/o...

I'm not surprised but my kids still play in Horizon Worlds. From what they say there's plenty of other kids in there too. I'm sure that's not what Meta wants but there are going to be some sad kids after the shutdown, probably all moving off to Roblox -_-

goodnight sweet prince

has anyone written about the parallels between ai and cars yet? the promise of the car was to get us anywhere and everywhere fast. the car industry redesigned the world to make that possible, forced cities and people to adapt and contort to support cars at the expense of everything else

this is interesting reporting but i think it’s worth pointing out that even if ai were to blame, humans would still be to blame www.semafor.com/article/03/1...

disclosures of some kind appear to be on the way

fuckin a

it has been a hard year for us nothing ever happens chuds

ten years ago the Deeply Online posted hate speech for the love of the game. Now every racist video I see on Instagram ends in a shotout for a gambling app

Anthropic data is being repackaged over and over to tell you how screwed you are. Pretty great advertisement for AI, but it's ignoring porn and spam.

This CEO didn't want to pay a $250 million bonus promised to game developers of Subnautica 2. So, he followed ChatGPT’s advice rather than his lawyers’ advice, court records show. It failed miserably. @evystadium.bsky.social has more. Story by @mjgault.bsky.social: www.404media.co/ceo-ignores-...

Reading a Choitner interview is like playing a Hitman game. You know Agent 47 is out for blood. Everyone looks at 47 and recognizes he's a stone cold killer. But his victims are oblivious to the threat calmly approaching them and the balcony they're standing by

i'm sorry this is so funny. great stuff www.404media.co/ceo-ignores-...

An insolvency judge in England tossed out testimony after discovering a witness was being coached on what to say in real time through a pair of smartglasses. @evystadium.bsky.social has more. Read the story by @mjgault.bsky.social: www.404media.co/witness-caug...

Screaming

we're reading your posts

we did not need a study to tell this to us, but I welcome it of course loneliness is DEFINITIONALLY about needing another person or people

if you're feeling down just right now, the absurdity of this story may bring you some cheer

With conflict spreading and prices spiraling, America summons allies with a bold vision for the region.

the cycle repeats in every era

incredible follow up

The Strait of Hormuz is open for transit

turns out no one wants this

it's so striking when you take a person out of the "extremely online" context and force them to explain themselves

two themes a defense journalist friend of mine noticed: 1 - willful ignorance of how Vietnam went down. 2 - a constant drumbeat of "we just have to take the gloves off" without really explaining what that means or why it would change anything here are both themes in one tweet

This is Nathan Cavanaugh, another DOGE staffer explaining how he flagged grants at NEH for "DEI" which would be reviewed for termination. 404 Media has reviewed hours of this footage and we'll have more soon. Part of a lawsuit by @acls1919.bsky.social, @modernlanguage.bsky.social + @historians.org

I have watched 6 hours of a DOGE bro deposition. The whole thing, start to finish. It's a fascinating, and horrifying, look at the people who caused so much damage, didn't really achieve anything at all, while still being so sure they are right. Here's what they said: www.404media.co/i-watched-6-...

I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out: www.404media.co/ai-is-africa...

exactly this

De Telegraaf, the Netherlands’ largest newspaper, recently published an interview with a woman promoting €1,600 seats on private evacuation flights from Dubai. Bellingcat found that her image was likely AI-generated, and flight data suggests no such plane took off. www.bellingcat.com/news/2026/03...

here's a react emoji for everyone

i would not have published this story, as someone who's read literally thousands of threat bulletins cosigned or circulated by the FBI

I do think this gets why, even with less playtime vs Arc, I feel less frustrated by Marathon's PvPvE systems. My takeaway from Arc was that PvP took me away from the good stealth game I wanted to be playing, but here, Marathon's story and look all feel compatible with its gameplay. It just clicks.

New from 404 Media: here is the memo approving ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot in the Senate. Raises questions about how sensitive data will be handled; memo says staff can use AI in all sorts of work, like drafting, research, etc. Has been approved to use "Senate data" www.404media.co/heres-the-me...

From Flock's nationwide surveillance to ICE tools, we are being watched. Is there anyway to go back now? "Police love telling each other about the new capabilities and tools that they've acquired, so this tech can spread from city to city very quickly." A 404 Media guide to surveillance in 2026:

we've got dashcam footage of a Cybertruck's self driving feature failing at the worst possible time: on a Texas overapass the lawsuit wants $1 million in damages and lays on Tesla's CEO. "Elon Musk is an...irresponsible salesman, who has a long history of making dangerous design choices."

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

NUKEMAP has been experiencing "elevated" usage since the beginning of the Iran war (unsurprisingly). Not yet at the levels seen at the beginning of the Ukraine war in 2022, thankfully (see second image). Servers should hold up much better, though, than they did in 2022...

We got photos and video of the Cybertruck that nearly barreled off an overpass while using full self driving. Lawsuit says Tesla is to blame because Musk has oversold the truck’s ability to drive itself www.404media.co/cybertruck-t...
