We may have pulled off “the largest theft of labor in human history.” This is what Microsoft’s director of applied science had to say about training their AI model on copyrighted content from our newsroom and many others, according to new docs revealed during our lawsuit against the company.

Hackers Had A Live Feed Of Every ID This Verification Company Scanned. For Over A Year.
From the very beginning of this recent obsession with identifying everyone online (yes, they like to call it "age" verification, but it always ends up as identity verification), we've been pointing out that it was a huge privacy nightmare waiting to happen.

We're being told that if we sacrifice the rights of some people, then the rest of us get to keep our rights. We all know that's some BS.

Yeah. I recall babysitting once for a neighbor. One book in the house--a Bible, bound in white "leather," on the coffee table. I don't think it had ever been opened.

I was trying to figure out how old my Oster waffle maker is...and remembered that it was a house-warming present in August 1984. Compared to your toaster, it's almost a baby.

My 45-year-old Revere Ware kettle works just fine. So does my 40-year-old Le Creuset enameled cast iron dutch oven. I don't know that I'd buy anything but enameled cast iron from Le Creuset. It's how they started and what they do best.

I picked up a Tramontina enameled cast iron braiser at Costco a year or two ago and love it. It may not last as long as a Le Creuset, but I'm old and won't be needing it 40 years from now.

My new (2 years old) KitchenAid food processor is a pathetic shadow of its predecessor. I've still got the old one, and I'm going to figure out a way to get it repaired.

I have. And it was memorable in its way. Jealous of your Green Zebras. I planted one that turned out to have mislabeled, so I have an okay red tomato instead of a delicious green one.

I'm a mite bitter about Sun Gold. It's one of my favorite tomatoes, and I planted one in late March. Turned out it was mislabeled. It's a perfectly nice yellow cherry tomato, but it's not Sun Gold.

Totally! But I'm still using my 1960s and '70s Pyrex and Corningware, so it's not a problem for me. But my 1970s Revere Ware is showing its age, alas.

Your Cookware Got Worse On Purpose
One buyout firm quietly collected Pyrex, Corelle, Instant Pot, and Oneida. Farberware is a name on a 200-year lease. And the pans still worth buying.

Not a great economy alert! Wall Street Bets users think Palantir spiked today because The Onion story titled “Palantir Acquires Pentagon for $800 Billion” hit their front page. They’re guessing trading bots indexed the top post on the subreddit reddit not understanding source.

Today, I voted YES to release the names of Members of Congress who used taxpayer dollars to settle sexual misconduct and other misconduct cases in Congress. No more abuses of power and no more hiding behind a system that shields perpetrators. We will always fight for justice for survivors—period.

Check your local Buy Nothing group. Or see if there's a Facebook gardening group in your area. Lots of people started more seeds than they have space for. (A friend of mine was giving seedlings to friends last week--and she's not unique.)

I feed (and fix) several neighborhood feral cats. They are slackers! I still miss The Commander, who was a mighty hunter and liked to sleep in the nice cool tomato bed. (After 12 years, he actually let me pet him.)
