"lawyers told Fox execs that Murdoch would be 'disgraced on the stand, run out of the boardroom, and his testimony will expose him as a lunatic sliding into senility.'"

That is intriguing. And will make the shareholder lawsuits even more interesting. Very Sumner Redstone.

@lightweight which is another thing to consider with earn it, chat control and Online Harms. Scanning everyone's private communications isn't going to get you intelligence really either.

You still need analysis, and AI isn't going to help with that either.

'Artificial Intelligence' is a marketing term. It's misleading based on most people's understanding of 'intelligence'. It's really exactly the opposite of intelligent.

Now we just need replacements for leaflet and flap, good thing there's another MR for that. :)

Thanks @nahuel for the original idea. ^^

Otherwise not too much happened. There were a few fixes in switch rows and spin rows, and a new point release. So hopefully the next update will be a bit more exciting :)

NitroKey disappoints me...

So the #ChiefEconomist of the #BankOfEngland thinks that citizens and businesses “need to accept” they are poorer, and stop pushing prices higher and seeking pay increases, no doubt while drawing a salary in the hundreds of thousands if not millions. Talk about tone deaf.

Smartphones With Popular Qualcomm Chip Secretly Share Private Information With US Chip-Maker https://www.nitrokey.com/news/2023/smartphones-popular-qualcomm-chip-secretly-share-private-information-us-chip-maker

Big Mobile telecoms want your online activities to run on their "5G" control-freak networks, where they can muck with traffic, spy on users even more, and work more effectively to wreck the open Internet.

In the US, instead of installing fiber, AT&T is giving millions of DSL customers no choice in the matter. Those customers will be second-class Internet citizens.

"A month ago I went out with St John’s Ambulance to see how things played out for them late night Friday. I saw first hand what “ramping” means – holding ambulances in the hospital carpark to care for patients who can’t squeeze into our overcrowded and underfunded emergency rooms.

This is what happens when we run our collective well dry. When we snip away at our social fabric to keep rates and taxes artificially low. When we privatise profit and socialise cost."

An Arizona judge issued a restraining order against a journalist investigating if a state senator violated residency rules. The conduct alleged (ringing doorbells, asking questions) is standard investigative reporting. A chilling press freedom violation. https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/politics/arizona/2023/04/20/arizona-judge-bars-reporter-from-contacting-sen-wendy-rogers-at-home/70136781007/
