The Onion has reached a deal to acquire Infowars • It will be turned into a parody site of itself • Has the support of the Sandy Hook families “A lot of people gave up on doing the right thing over the last two years. Despite an insane amount of threats & bullshit, we persevered" (via Variety)

France also moving away from US services like Windows, Zoom, MS Teams & supporting new systems is the sort of positive, adventurous response we need. I wish we had a government with the guts to chase the real criminals rather than chat about banning teenagers, to invest in HE rather than AI

Spain is crushing it ⚡🇪🇸 Solar is delivering the equivalent of 27 nuclear plants during the day. Pumped hydro stores ~3 nuclear plants worth. Batteries already stepping in. This isn’t a generation problem anymore. It’s storage scale. Energy scarcity → energy timing. #BESS #Solar

“Koch brother groups have tried to derail public transit plans in other cities around the country, from Little Rock, Arkansas and central Utah, to Nashville and Michigan. They have frequently called such projects ‘wasteful spending’. The Koch organization is also heavily invested in fossil fuels.”

this seems to be a trend now for AISI and its funded work - it's not for the first time that such outputs appear to be intellectually compromised I look forward to being wrong, but is concerning if UK gov is actually listening to this (via @olivia.science / @sven.blacksky.app)
