I remember when they killed their Games For Windows store and the games I'd bought on there just went poof. Never trust Microsoft to keep a digital storefront around, they'll delete it all at the drop of a hat.

If the rumor is true that a reddit/google training deal is what led to reddit getting boosted in search results, this would be a direct result of reddit's own actions.

Ask anyone who wears earrings, ears heal fast. (That said, I expect he only had a scratch.)

It's already a bit of a mess to manage, especially if you include the debris. Back in 2007 China blew up a satellite, and as of a few years ago that represented almost a third of all tracked space debris.. (it has its own wikipedia page) If these jokers ever start deliberately blowing up each others' satellites, we could end up in a situation where space becomes inaccessible.

It's only a matter of time before DOGE proposes replacing the judicial branch, up to and including the supreme court, with Grok.

This and cutting funding to EI-ISAC is basically an invitation for Russia to hack the next election.

Prediction: It'll be a quick flip to a different buyer. Oracle is the first buyer to make it look 'okay' to the general public, before Oracle sells it to X or Meta to shore up their finances.

Perhaps the customers are CEOs of AI companies who might want to sell the royals better deepfake technology?

If you want something super simple to generate a calendar, you can generate Gantt charts with PlantUML. There are more complicated tools out there that try to replace Microsoft Project, but personally I haven't found anything really worth the extra UI vs the simple text markup source file for plantuml. (ymmv)

I'd argue it's the same hubris that led to the modern wars in Europe; the thought that we've done this elsewhere in the world, we can do it easily next door. Well, next door means you're exposing your own home to serious damage. Only 0.4% of the US population actively serves in the military, and 6% are veterans. That is a tiny part of the population that has even a hint of first-hand knowledge of how bad this could be. American government and media make these operations look quick, safe, efficient, and relatively bloodless, with relatively little capital--buildings, equipment, people--lost. They are not.

On the flip side, I think Canadians may underestimate how much they're putting this on other subcultures within their whole to fight an insurgency. There is this confidence that the FLQ, the aboriginal peoples, or some other group with a history of standing up for themselves will be the ones to stand up instead of them. The reason this is ridiculous is because it contradicts their basic thesis statement, that Canadians pass as Americans. You know who doesn't easily pass as American? Someone with a strong French accent or an aboriginal complexion.
