Many people WANT Hantavirus to be a new pandemic so they can just pivot their grift from Covid to that - whether it's the doom mongers or the anti vaxxers

We are aware of this situation last night and are working with our colleagues in NYC to collect evidence and analyze potential charges.

Incredible work of @nicd_sa, South Africa in sequencing the #hantavirus There has been excellent collaboration as @WHO works to coordinate efforts and actions of governments, experts around the world, the Ship to keep people safe. @DrTedros @Chikwe_I cnbcafrica.com/2026/two-cases…

Google Chrome is quietly downloading a roughly 4 GB AI model to many users’ computers without clear upfront consent. The file, called weights.bin, is part of Google’s Gemini Nano on-device language model and lands in the browser’s user data folder under OptGuideOnDeviceModel. It powers built-in AI tools such as “Help me write,” smarter tab suggestions, on-device scam detection, and page summarization. The download triggers automatically for devices meeting minimum hardware requirements, and Chrome often replaces the files if deleted. While the model processes data locally, installation happens in the background with minimal notification. The scale is noteworthy. Hundreds of millions or billions of installations add up to thousands of tonnes of carbon emissions globally from data transfer, even though each is a one-time event. To prevent or remove it, go to chrome://flags, disable the entries for the optimization guide on-device model and Prompt API, restart the browser, and manually delete the folder.

Amazon has officially launched 1-hour shipping in US. Over 100 cities!

An HIV-positive man with colon cancer, unable to work for four years, lived in his Los Angeles apartment for almost 25 years. He says he mailed his rent on time. The landlord said the check never arrived and filed for eviction. After a trial, a jury ruled he DID mail the payment, but since it wasn't cashed, they said he failed to pay on time. A judge ordered him out. Sheriff's deputies escorted him from his home of a quarter-century. He took his dog, Simba, and his clothes. He left behind his furniture, his blankets, his two TVs, and his beloved Madonna CDs. He's now homeless, sleeping on a friend's sofa. The system will evict a dying man over a payment dispute. But a corporation can squat in bankruptcy court for years? "That's a different matter entirely."
