Immutable distributions are all the rage these days, so is this a play for an immutable distribution? Or perhaps a server implementation with more containerization for Docker, Podman applications? The most famous form of an immutable distribution is Google’s Chrome…
Does this indicate the Saudi’s are now onboard with the plans to attack Iran? And a few years back the Saudis bought S-400 systems from Russial, capable of shooting down aircraft and missiles. So with their military exercises in Yemen,…
It’s an incredibly slanted anti-israel piece, but the investment connections are very interesting. And the conclusion is on point about these celebrities being operatives that play a role that doesn’t necessarily reflect their true values and beliefs. And they’ve actively…
Your body regularly deals with cancerous areas through your immune system, so advanced screening and detection could lead to painful and expensive (but profitable) treatments that aren’t necessary. And could you imagine going through cancer treatment for an AI hallucination?…
This is a good write up on Citrea and how it factors into other Bitcoin layer 2 protocols. I like the privacy angle with zero knowledge proofs, but we have Palantir’s Peter Thiel investing in the company, so you have…

It looks like they’re going the way of KDE in separating out Wayland from X.Org, possibly with the direction to drop X.Org down the road. I like XFCE, but if they dropped X.Org support, they’d be dead to me (fork?).…
If you’ve been unhappy with the path of Bitcoin Core and blowing up OP_RETURN along with adding the taproot bug that enabled the blockchain to be spammed with images and extra data without ever trying to fix it, also blowing…
If we take the Flock ALPR cameras that record when you travel past them, this type of facial recognition will fill in your personal travel data even if your phone or car aren’t tracking you. Many of us don’t have…
I’d add that because Bitcoin is such a good currency, it’s easy to liquidate to cover yourself if you’re gambling in other markets with leverage. Though, eventually as the fiat dollar crashes out, a lot of regular people will take…
Ubuntu and their Snap packages are trash, and this just backs it up. I’m not a huge fan of these virtualization method packages that include the libraries with central app stores, trying to mimic what Apple and Google have with…
