Just heard that a ship called the Kobayashi Maru sent a distress signal in the Strait of Hormuz. Hope the scenario ends well.

βChatGPT offered assistance to people saying they wanted to carry out violent attacks in 61% of cases, research found, and in 1 case, asked about attacks on synagogues, it gave specific advice about which shrapnel type would be most lethal. Googleβs Gemini provided a similar level of detail.β
So, wait.
The United States assassinated the father, mother, sister, infant niece, wife, and teenage son of Iran's new Supreme Leader in a bombing that also injured him.
If he hasn't already ordered revenge, I'll be real surprised.
It's not just that he refused to condemn Ogles and Fine; he endorsed the substance of their vile messages, taking issue only with their "tone," and he introduced a new line of bigotry-fueled conspiracy theory about Muslims wanting to impose sharia law. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
π¨NEWπ¨ Cops used an AI-generated teenager to catch pedophiles on Kik Messenger, an app notorious as a hive of predator activity.
A rare insight into how police can spin up AI teens for sting operations on social media.

it's not the point at all, but one feels the need to recall that chess came to Europe from Iran

Everything is bad, but at least I can focus on my dissertation chapter about how the British in 1915 didnβt have the navy to force a strait when it needed to because it spent the previous decades funding their armyβs misadventures in unimportant areas that turned into expensive quagmires.

Devastating reporting. Like RFK Jr., Kristi Noem, and Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth is reshaping his department to indiscriminately kill tons and tons of children.
A major throughline of the Trump administration.
No win scenario
All the planning involved some combination of "those assholes fired first" and "The World Has Decided It Is Time To End The Iranian Threat," both involve a level of ally+partner integration that is absolutely not the case here
There was literally no plan for "YOLO Iran war w/Bibi"
This is cruel and unusual punishment.
JUST IN: Democrats flip a seat in the New Hampshire state House.
Dem Bobbi Boudman has won todayβs special election, NHJournal reports.
(Boudman was the Dem nominee in 2024 & lost by 14%; Trump won here by 9%.)
This is Demsβ third legislative flip so far this year, after Texas and Arkansas.
Any answer other than βthe president is a historically stupid man only now he has dementiaβ is journalistic malpractice
Deorbiting upper stages on high orbit (geotransfer) launches is still regrettably rare, and I commend SpaceX

lol, of course the ADL is claiming that saying "Operation Epstein Fury" is antisemitic. What a joke of an organization.
but you did it and that's a win
This is worth watching just for young Dan Rather giving a weather report.
βIn a dozen instances, misreads by Flock's automated license plate readers, or a lack of verification by officers, resulted in people who hadn't committed crimes being stopped at gunpoint, sent to jail, or mauled by a police dog, among other outcomes.β
