My latest column on ‘AI-sexual’ as a manufactured identity. www.techcentral.ie/ai-sexual-is...
Over the next few weeks we'll see Micheál Martin's White House visit framed as a very difficult task, something he'll need his wits about him to get through, & one that requires no small amount of seriousness & diplomacy.
When really it's a fascist enabling jaunt he should have rejected outright

I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves. Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven't lived in blood and bone. That doesn't mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins. If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it's not freedom you're after. Sahar Delijani, Iranian author
I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds.
I support neither imperialism or dictatorship.
Sahar Delijani said it best:
Memories!

I am once again feeling like this mash up is incredibly prescient.
Thanks!

which do you choose, the hard or soft option?
Oh my lords! Stunning!
How does that happen?
I hope the guy from Crash Test Dummies doesn’t mind if I sing his song an octave higher
Walk into the woods and decompress. Then emerge reenergised knowing you’ll do great! You’re already an established author. Give yourself props!
The whole "we'll do progressive patriotism to defeat the fascists" thing is so funny because it's literally exactly what everyone from the social democrats to the communists did in Germany during the 20's and 30's and look how that went for them
Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
Side bar: it’s annoying that the women in these episodes are either wives or secretaries when we know women played such an important role in scientific research at that time but I guess this is a fantasy world where they want to make out that men do all the good stuff.
The original Outer Limits is great. Watching season 2. The one with William Shatner as an astronaut who has gone to Venus is pretty good. Now watching one where an optometrist’s glasses allow people to see into another dimension.

Tesla, SpaceX, xAI, and X the Everything App have been merged into a new company called I Can Keep Doing This Forever And No One Can Stop Me
Tweet from Eric Berger on Jan 29, 2026: The reported merger talks between SpaceX and xAI should not come as a huge surprise. If you believe AI is the future; and that compute is the major problem to solve; and orbital data centers are feasible—then the combined company would be a vertically integrated AI colossus.
hi folks, serious journalist here, it's important to understand that this all makes perfect sense if you've completely cooked your brain on Elon fanboy bullshit for the last decade
Never thought about this before but leaving the US out of it, Ireland and Egypt were the first countries to achieve independence. Unless my eyesight is getting worse.
