Also, I'm not going to delete my account because I don't want criminals to be able to take over the username and use it for nefarious means. But this is it. You will never see me here again!

This has nothing to do with hitting Hezbollah (there are no Hezbollah soldiers there). This is a controlled demolition, aka a deliberate destruction of entire civilian areas.
Michael Young@BeirutCalling

Israeli forces in South Lebanon dynamiting an entire village (Mhaibib). Like the attack against the Nabatiyyeh municipality building today, killing several members of the municipal council, it shows Israel is in the process of depopulating parts of the south, with U.S. approval.

This is not true. The problem with many polls is that they ask people to choose between only two candidates, and then they report the percentage of that. But if you include third parties, it's a different story. But even that is misleading because it still forces a choice.

A bunch of people seem to think fossil fuels are immune to tornados: this oil refinery was hit a few months ago and the owner has since shut it down permanently, rather than trying to repair it. Tornados don’t care whether your energy infrastructure is green. kjrh.com/news/local-new… Tornados are assholes.

This is what one of Duke Energy's solar farms looks like after getting hit by an EF-2 tornado during Hurricane #Milton. At peak production, the Lake Placid Solar Power Plant makes enough electricity to power more than 12,000 homes.

My day today has been spent looking at my screen without managing to get any writing done.

@baekdal One thing that I find is very low starter prices that jump massively but it’s almost impossible to find out how to cancel on the websites. And lousy phone support.

As a media analyst, I am advocating that publishers should focus more on subscriptions because, when we look at the data, this is vital for their continued success. That said, what I cannot stand is when publishers turn their subscriptions into a mystery.

How low must this go before news publishers finally make the decision to change the way we produce news? The way news is being produced today is clearly not the right way.

The other alternative is that we clearly define what fair use means... which publishers here in Denmark tried to do with these rules (but they constantly ignore it): danskemedier.dk/wp-content/upl…

So if we are to require AI companies to pay for using our articles, we as publishers also need to adopt a principle of paying for using content from others. We can't just create a system where some has to pay and others don't.

One thing AI companies claim is that they are not reproducing copyrighted works, so it's fair use. This is false. If you bake a cake, you are also not reproducing the ingredients, but you still have to pay for them.
