I guess we find out Monday if Elon has deleted them, this has been the pattern at other orgs that DOGE has deleted.

Hey #fediverse techies! My cable modem-router combo is dying, and I'm looking for a replacement. What do people recommend these days? I heard something about OpenWRT and may be interested, but in general the ability to tinker with my router is not the top priority.
Thank you!

Consider this: Russian state media (TASS) was in the fracking Oval Office to report on the shameful performance by President Trump yesterday. Reuters and the Associated Press were banned. But Russia's main state-sponsored news mouthpiece was fully present.
First off: What a giant security failure. Again, shows that this White House is completely ignoring anything related to security clearances. President Trump on Day 1 in Term II declared the security clearance process was too onerous and that anyone so deputized by the White House counsel could have access to the most secret information there is.

Dear Super-Carrier Advocates:
(do try to remember the lessons we were supposed to have learned at Pearl Harbor in 1941 from focusing too much on battleships in the 1930s)
“Despite being vastly outnumbered at the start of the war, the Ukrainian Navy has inflicted significant losses on Russian forces, using a combination of drone attacks, anti-ship missiles, and naval raids.”

my Dad enlisted in the US Army in February of 1942, landed on the 3rd day at Normandy, was demobilized in 1946, and was involuntarily recalled to active duty in 1949. he was assigned to Germany, and I was born in Ohio as my family was en route.
the founding of the NATO alliance changed the trajectory of my family’s life, and saved Europe from the old pattern of endless war & revenge. today we are witnessing the destruction of NATO by an American President, a possibility I would have scoffed at.

@frameworkcomputer The immense memory bandwidth of these machines can’t (currently) be achieved on a socketable interface. Extra interference created by the connection points reduces the overall signal integrity.

this is yet more evidence of the unfolding destruction of NATO. trust lost cannot be easily regained, and peace in Europe had been based on such webs of trust for 80 years. see also https://ukdefencejournal.org.uk/norwegian-fuel-supplier-refuses-u-s-warships-over-ukraine/

As we watch the global order crumble and the US economy tank because Democrats were too hesitant to do the right thing on basically every front (Ukraine support, Jan 6 prosecutions, etc.), I'm actively looking to understand which groups will push back hardest, including by raising money to primary feckless D's.
Anyone got a list?

It's embarrassing, destructive, and looks like shit: AI-generated art is the perfect aesthetic form for the far right. The right loves AI-generated imagery. [...] To understand it, we must consider the right's hatred...

So many nuts things have happened today in the US, but re that now likely historic Ukraine meeting -
It is striking that major US news outlets weren’t allowed in the room, and somehow a Russian media org was in the room, apparently without even being on the approved press list.

I was recently introduced to the concept of “hypernormalization” coined to describe the Soviet Union.
Hypernormalization is when the economic and social system is obviously broken, but instead of fixing it, people just accept it as normal because the truth is too complex or inconvenient to change.
So politicians and citizens alike are resigned to maintaining the pretense of a functioning society.

This is why you lose.
This is why you have no defense against foreign interference.
This is why all of the other stuff on the other side of the chart, is so easy for them to accomplish.

Just to say the obvious bit out loud - Trump, VD Vance and Elon Musk are bullies.
They’ve made their whole careers via it.
They shout at people, send mobs after them, complain to employers, threaten legal action, etc etc etc. It’s all about silencing speech which causes them discomfort.
Elon hired a private investigator after my last spat with him, it emerged in court.
Time after time organisations have gone with it and given in to said bullies. They shouldn’t. We shouldn’t.
