BTW this isn’t the first time Elon Musk has personally intervened to help the Russian military kill Ukrainian civilians. Starlink denies this, but Reuters presents compelling evidence that he ordered engineers to shut off access during a counteroffensive in 2022.

Musk ordered shutdown of Starlink satellite service as Ukraine retook territory from Russia

Soldiers panicked and drones surveilling Russian forces went dark.

1938 Soviet prison drama, apparently… Lowe portrays a professor arrested for treason who gets brutally interrogated by a former student, played by Franco. “Haunting tale of morality and resistance” according to the logline… but with Shapiro/DW behind it who knows for sure?

Montana Dem Sam Forstag just refused to throw trans people under the bus in the MT-01 debate: “Keep politics the heck out of it.” He said government has no business in sports or telling parents what to do. It’s the most competitive House race in the country. Subscribe to support our journalism.

“Keep Politics The Heck Out Of It”: In Toss-Up MT-01 Race, Dem Sam Forstag Refuses To Throw Trans People Under The Bus

The Democratic candidate accused his republican opponent Aaron Flint supporting people who would “pick our pocket” by distracting voters with anti-transgender attacks.

Excerpts from Michael Lewis on DOGE (Guardian article). 1. Gavin Kliger, white nationalist, refused to shake hands with the Black IRS staffer who briefed him on privacy issues. Or pay attention. Kliger now has a defense start-up valued at 1.4B thanks to DOGE. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Phyllis, who loved working for Kathleen and saw falling on hand grenades as part of her job, never told her how this one had felt. She knew Gavin had expressed enthusiasm for white nationalists, and he likely knew that she knew. She tried to break the ice by walking in with her hand extended; Gavin stared at it and declined to shake it, though he had shaken the hands of the white men who had offered them. “He was kind of cool towards me,” said Phyllis. Before she could even start the briefing, he said, You know, I’ve heard these rules before at other agencies. Yes, she said, but these rules are different, because no other agency is governed by this privacy law, and this law can get you thrown in jail very quickly. As she walked him through the basics – how you can’t use your personal phone for business, how if you happen to so much as glimpse a form 1040 with someone’s name on it you must avert your eyes – Gavin played on his phone. “He’s multitasking right in front of me, typing and texting,” said Phyllis. “It was, here’s a routine that I must endure.”

So, using decompiling as an example here... did Microsoft just endorse piracy of their own products? Because this sure reads like Microsoft just gave everyone carte blanche to pirate their games. That also means Microsoft is endorsing pirating YOUR games, developers...

In recent weeks, we’ve seen games rapidly decompiled and rebuilt to run on hardware they were never originally designed to support. Windows PC builds have been translated to run on Apple Silicon or ported to run inside a browser through WebAssembly and WebGPU, the latter now approaching 90% global browser support. Perhaps more surprisingly, we’ve seen many of the biggest games in the world have been remixed into the source code of another.

It's royalties day! Royalties should be standard practice in any creative field. If you spend your life on something, it should keep taking care of you.

There’s this weird political tic (and everyone from centrist Dems to progressives to people on the far left do it) where people desperately want fascists and neo-nazis to turn into good guys, and will preemptively attempt to rehabilitate fascists who haven’t changed at all.

Hey California! Be careful this election because the big money creeps are trying to trick you (again).

There's a trap on your ballot in California. Here's how to get past it.
1. Prop 40: 250 billionaires pay with they owe so hospitals, schools, and food assistant survive the federal cuts. Vote yes.
2. Props 41 and 42: paid for by billionaires to cancel prop 40. Vote no.
3. Tell one person, because the confusion is the plan.
Yes I'm 40. No on 41 and 42.

So I (mostly) buy this less for some "wanting to" reason (the actor has done PLENTY of similarly poor-taste movies for sh---y outfits, some adjacent to this one) and more because this *is* just a pretty common way cheapjack companies like DW get names into their productions.
