as a reminder, they still haven't built a single one of their proprietary turbines for use on one of their airplanes, which they also haven't built any of yet, but yeah sure
Incredible scenes here: Boom Supersonic is raising $300mm and pivoting to AI by signing a contract to supply its turbines as electrical power for data centers. They're even talking about converting turbines from simple to combined cycle via a "field upgrade". This is all deranged.

I actually used the monorail pretty often as a last-mile solution because the shop I get my film developed at is like next door to the arena, and I often transferred from either Link or Metro. This sucks! It’s a transit machine! Let me use it like one!

I am far from the worlds’ biggest NATO fan but replacing it with The Global Fascism Project is uhhh probably Bad
This is far beyond 'NATO as we've known it is done.'
"The Trump administration had “a clear and consistent vision for Europe: one that prioritises US-Russia ties and seeks to divide and conquer the continent, with much of the dirty work carried out by nationalist, far-right European forces.”

wow they really just went with “hey you have to save this old Jewish guy from the literal death camp so you can get the Space Laser Technology”. Interesting choice, narratively,
I like to watch my wife play video games. she picked up Wolfenstein: The New Order recently and it's really good and quite entertaining but I think it's slightly too depressing, right now, to watch a game about a world in which the Nazis won, because,

the real problem with posting medium format film photography on Bluesky, an app 90% of people use their phone for, is that the vast majority of my medium format photography is meant to be seen printed out in front of you no less than two to three feet wide

I would say this because I edited it but @mshannahmurphy.bsky.social's piece on tech bros founding their own for-profit cities really is unmissable reading www.ft.com/content/b127...
Tech elites are starting their own for-profit cities
They want to escape from regulation and ‘failing’ democracy — but are they more opportunistic than libertarian?

It's really frustrating that a lot of the media just sort of frames the Trump admin as "wading into a hot debate over trans issues that have roiled american politics" when it's like, clear that they are motivated by a desire to demean trans people
Admiral Rachel Levine was the first transgender person to be confirmed by the Senate to serve in the federal government. Her official portrait at HHS headquarters has been altered. n.pr/48HypvT
HHS changed the name of transgender health leader on her official portrait

wow, I don’t like this. which is unusual because I loved the Supra and the refreshed GT86 and even the new Prius. This just doesn’t feel proportioned right at all - I think it’s the front overhang tbh
