Meta: I have kept a public Mastodon account since leaving the other place, and this hasn't resulted in the level of drama that a public Twitter account did. Twitter kept turning my life upside down and never made me any money, so I limit social media because I don't have time for that.

NotebookLM seems like the perfect design for generative AI. You limit the source material and it produces material based on those sources. They just added the slide deck feature and I'm floored at how good it is.

This is absolutely bonkers. The federal government just sits on a timely submitted application for months, lets a spousal visa expire in the interim, and then deports your spouse because they are out of status. Bad faith stacked on top of bad faith.
If you are married to a US spouse, your temporary visa (usually for 3 months) will lapse before your case is processed. The government allowed you could stay in the US while awaiting case processing. Now the Trump admin is saying that is a visa overstay and arresting the spouses.

incredible to see the U.S. right echoing the Chinese Communist Party.
Wild how people like this, just like russians, still can’t comprehend that the Revolution of Dignity wasn’t staged. It was Ukrainians choosing freedom over fear. Imperialists and small minds always assume someone else must be pulling the strings, because they’ve never seen a nation with a spine.
