Their logo is a koala in front of a trans flag and the about text is "An international Anarchist, queer friendly instance". It might be that the anarchists don't hold the same views as the people who rule over the land they're on

Clara Immerwahr, who was married to Fritz Haber and was a successful chemist in her own right, spoke out against his research as a "perversion of the ideals of science" and "a sign of barbarity, corrupting the very discipline which ought to bring new insights into life." She ended her own life the day before he traveled to the eastern front to oversee the use of chlorine gas against Russian troops.

This is why the UK gov are pushing to remove jury trials in most cases 🥴

I have managed to get all my friendship group on signal and we use it daily. While it does have its flaws (mainly being centralised and US based), I try in life to not let perfect be the enemy of good. Until there's a stable and easy to use alternative I can point my friends to, I imagine we'll stay on Signal.

Freedom of assembly is covered in many international treaties but I've been told on several occasions by judges that it is a "qualified right" (IE if we don't like you then fuck you, no rights)

This record features parallel grooves on both sides, meaning you have a 50/50 chance of what it'll play. There's also a lil guy hidden inside the sleeve:

The printing on the sleeve is holographic foil so it's beautiful in the sun (and very hard to photograph)

A tricky challenge puts one team on the back foot as the boys begin staking out their territories.

I assume he wants all Americans to give their land back to the respective tribes then, right?

OpenTTD doesn't use any assets from TTD, all code, graphics, sounds etc are original. That said, it does aim to replicate TTD closely and has far surpassed that.

Its corpse is being paraded around in the hopes of making money off of the brand recognition.

I think it'll also be up on his youtube channel, just delayed a week like Jet Lag.

They're using their newly acquired license to TTD to hold the better remake hostage, presumably in the hopes that enough people will pay up. You can still play OpenTTD for free if you already have it on your account or download it directly from their website: https://www.openttd.org/downloads/openttd-releases/latest

You can also donate to OpenTTD, as they will receive none of the money you give Atari: https://www.openttd.org/donate

In this 41-episode weekly series, Tom Scott takes a road trip to every county of England, travelling by car, train, boat, plane, tram, monorail, and hovercraft, visiting hidden infrastructure, ancient traditions, and more bells than you might expect.

“For the new series, I arrived at locations without a script, which was both freeing and terrifying. Freeing, because it let me tell stories that would never have worked when I had to lock in the script before arriving; terrifying, because sometimes I had no idea what the story would be! The new videos are like the very best of my old ones — longer, more detailed, and perfect for Nebula.”

— Tom

Premieres on Nebula Monday, March 23 at 4pm GMT | 12pm ET.

QuitGPT (quitgpt.org)

OpenAI president Greg Brockman was Trump's Super PAC's largest donor in their latest year-end report. He and his wife donated $25 million to MAGA Inc last year, and CEO Sam Altman donated $1M to Trump's 2025 Inaugural Fund. ICE uses OpenAI technology for recruitment. They're cozying up to the White House while ICE is killing Americans and the Department of Justice is threatening to take over elections.

Let's get as many people as possible to quit ChatGPT and cancel their subscriptions, delete the app, and pressure companies to switch to a more ethical chatbot competitor like Gemini, Claude, and open-source chatbots.

I'm well aware that I'm preaching to the choir here
