  • Trump administration seeks to halt first US reparations program for Black people

  • Gotta save money for the reparations program for Iran.

  • Trump threatens to pull unemployment benefits from all states for the first time in history

  • They could have been thinking of the House part of Congress, since they only listed the Senate.

  • Microsoft's new Outlook takes 10 seconds to do what Outlook Classic does instantly on Windows

    Jump

  • Windows 11 ships with two versions of Outlook. There is Outlook Classic, the long-running Win32 desktop app built for power users, and there is the new Outlook, which Microsoft is pushing as the future of email on Windows. The newer one is built on WebView2 and is, in essence, a browser window that loads Outlook.com.

    Old Outlook downloads all your stuff when you sync, so it's immediately available when you try to look at it. New Outlook just being a wrapper around a website probably means it's asking the server for things as you select them.

  • Fox Is Buying Roku in $22 Billion Deal

  • Still need something to get the plunder to the TV.

  • Eric Trump messaged UFC insider asking if White House fights were 'rigged': report

    Jump

  • I think UFC was real at one point, but it's been owned by the same parent company as WWE for a few years now, so they might be more similar these days.

  • Fox Is Buying Roku in $22 Billion Deal

    Jump

  • This is the same Fox that owns Fox News. So now Roku's advertising push can include a side of misinformation.

  • Nobody needs AI to search the Internet, court says in ruling against Google

    Jump

  • This is where the "nobody needs AI to search the internet" part comes from (emphasis mine):

    Historically, any potentially harmful content surfaced by search engines has been protected from direct liability because that surfacing was considered largely unavoidable when helping users sort through an enormous tangle of information online. But the German court emphasized that AI search engines do not enjoy those same protections because AI summaries merely provide “an additional function—one without which the use of the search engine would still be (and is) possible, and without which users are perfectly capable of finding results amidst the ‘flood of data.’”

  • Nobody needs AI to search the Internet, court says in ruling against Google

    Jump

  • The court caught that too:

    The court also seemed to take a dig at Google for expecting users not to “blindly trust” AI overviews, noting that the AI tool’s utility “would be significantly diminished if the ‘AI overview’ were generally regarded as unreliable and if every single displayed link required independent verification.”

  • Live updates: Trump says Iran will ‘pay the price’ for taking too long to negotiate | CNN

    Jump

  • They're taking so long because they know Trump won't follow through on his threats. More threats aren't going to make them hurry up.

  • Trump’s Going To Game 3 And Doing What He Does Best: Making Everyone Else’s Life Harder

    Jump

  • Did you really need to post a second article about how Trump was going to go to the game? The game happened yesterday so articles about how it might go aren't especially relevant.

  • Anthropic/OpenAI may be spending more than $1000 for every $100 you pay them

  • That might not even be the weirdest hypothetical DOJ has argued this year.

    Trump DOJ Refuses to Rule Out Second Amendment Right to Nuclear Weapons

    Now, to be clear, DOJ lawyers do not argue that nuclear weapons are currently protected by the Second Amendment. But that is based on the view that nukes could not become popular enough to be protected, not because of the unmistakable threat to public safety that civilian access to nuclear warheads would create. Under this dangerous logic, if nuclear weapons become more common, all bets are off: Civilians might then be constitutionally entitled to acquire and possess them. And though the Trump DOJ’s discussion of nuclear weapons may seem farfetched, the same logic would apply to a grenade launcher or bazooka.

  • Texas Democrat James Talarico May Be on Track to Turn the Lone Star State Blue

    Jump

  • Wouldn't it be purple, at best? Flipping one Senate seat in a red state isn't going to make the whole place blue.

  • Trump claims without proof Democrats are ‘trying to steal’ California primaries

    Jump

  • Angry devs vow to flee GitHub Copilot as metered billing takes hold

    Jump

  • They'll move to another service, the service's expenses will spike, and then that service will switch to usage based billing, and then they'll have to look for another service again, and repeat the loop until they can run a good enough model locally.

  • DuckDuckGo makes its 'no-AI' search engine easier to access as its traffic booms

    Jump

  • They should just make it the default and add a subdomain for AI instead.

  • Lindsey Graham branded ‘pathetic’ for saying Nobel Peace Prize should be renamed Trump Prize

    Jump

  • He's up for reelection this year and the primary is in a couple weeks, so he's probably trying extra hard to get Trump's endorsement.

  • Big Tech is turning you into a digital tenant, but there is a way to evict them

    Jump

  • If you're not ready to quit your job, at least if you get caught in a round of layoffs you'll have enough savings to not need to bother looking for a new job.
