hague (quoted image reposted with real alt text*)
news lede from chris cameron, reporting from washington, 8 october 2026.
pentagon officials said on thursday that the army officer convicted in the 2009 fort hood shooting would be executed in public, a practic that ended in the united states nearly a century ago and is most commonly carried out in a handful of countries including iran, north korea, and the taliban-led government in afghanistan.

the pentagon said in a statement that the military execution, scheduled for december 3rd, would also be broadcast via livestream. such a broadcast has little precedent, and releasing video fo executions is most often associated with extremist militant groups like the islamic state.

To put this in perspective chestnut trees used to be dominant species in the United States. Billions of trees were killed by fungal blight and now fully grown America chestnuts are functionally extinct. There is no getting them back. Ever. All for a data center. www.gadgetreview.com/one-of-ameri...

A massive pulse of water called a "Kelvin wave" is heading toward California. It's one of many expected this winter and they serve as a preview of what's to come because of climate change.

The ‘Kelvin wave’ hitting California is a potent warning about sea-level rise
Sea level on the California coast is likely to be pushed to extremes this winter by compounding forces, but these extremes could be the norm by the end of the century

A customer just tried to use an employee discount code that ChatGPT gave her. I work at a high-end clothing store and clocked in to my manager telling me about the most unhinged interaction from yesterday. A woman walked in asking if she could use a 40% off code she got online. We don't have any sales running, so my manager looks at the screen and realizes ChatGPT straight up handed this woman a real employee's internal ID number.
