Proton built Proton Meet to escape the CLOUD Act. They built it on CLOUD Act infrastructure. Their website promises "not even government agencies" can access your calls. The company routing them hands your call records to the government when asked. Proton hid them from their privacy policy.

The federal government is suing Connecticut, Arizona and Illinois, challenging their efforts to regulate prediction market operators such as Kalshi and Polymarket.

I heard wealthy people in New York get driven around in Mercedes, Lincolns, Lexuses, etc., but people in LA drive supercars like Lamborghinis and Ferraris. Is this true, or do wealthy people in LA also get driven around in black luxury cars too?

A second United States Air Force combat aircraft crashed in the Persian Gulf region on Friday as rescue teams continued searching for a missing crew member from a downed F-15E Strike Eagle, according to two U.S. officials cited by The New York Times.

The second aircraft, an A-10 Thunderbolt II, went down near the Strait of Hormuz, and its pilot was safely rescued, the officials said.

The crash occurred around the same time that an F-15E was shot down over Iran, where one crew member has already been recovered and search teams continue looking for the second.

Self-styled “professor” Xueqin Jiang became an internet sensation after a 2024 video he posted to his YouTube channel went viral. In the video, Jiang made three big predictions: Trump would win the 2024 election, the US would go to war with Iran, and ultimately, the US would lose that war.

He has been dubbed “China’s Nostradamus,” and his YouTube channel now has more than 2 million subscribers.

But in this ‘Mehdi Unfiltered’ interview, Mehdi Hasan challenges Jiang on how accurate – or unique! – those predictions are, including the big 2024 prediction he got wrong; whether he has slipped into antisemitic conspiracy theorizing; and why exactly his YouTube channel isn’t being censored by China.

In this provocative and wide-ranging interview, Mehdi also presses Jiang on peddling conspiracy theories about the Illuminati and the Jesuits, as well as his promotion of the far-right concept of “Pax Judaica.”

Today, while watching a George Carlin video of all things, I saw an ad from Rafael advertising their new laser weapon systems. Who is their audience? I don't think the DMV would let me mount that on my sedan. And the HOA might frown on concentrated energy weapons.

The EU has recently decided to crackdown strongly on deepfakes, whether you're a citizen or a celebrity. This falls under abuse of AI and self-autonomy. Wouldn't the same exact rationale also work for creative media, whether it's corporate or civilian? What you make is just as self-autonomous to you too, or so I would think.
