Apple should not introduce new APIs to conform to the nonsense from the EU. They should just disable the affected features and move on. Don’t waste dev time on these bureaucrats. Just let them have the world they want where nothing works and no features come to their market and move on.

GOP Members of Congress correctly noting that the White House treats them like garbage, Speaker Mike Johnson lets it happen because he wants to, the legislature has been usurped, so… they’ll quit, rather than vote for a new Speaker or do oversight of the executive branch.

Renaming your company to capitalize on the hype so that whenever anyone talks about the metaverse they have to say your name seems like a bad idea, in retrospect.
Turns out interest in Metaverse had about a ~9 month half life.

I think my new hot take is that we never needed TLDs and their development was a mistake. instead of mikebeas.com i should be able to just own “http://mikebeas” and that’s it. Eliminates a while class of domain spoofing and squatting. Reduces the namespace, sure, but I don’t think that’s a problem.

A video from inside a Border Patrol vehicle shows agents chasing a US citizen for filming them. The citizen refused to get out when they illegally ordered him to stop. The agents say: "This is great." "This is fun." "He's going to get shot."

"Ukraine must “enshrine in its constitution” a promise to never join NATO. Ukraine must shrink the size of its armed forces to 600,000, down from 900,000. Ukraine may not host foreign troops on its soil. Ukraine must hold new elections within 100 days, a demand not made of Russia, a dictatorship"
This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

On October 28, DHS's social media account claimed that on October 23, "rioters" had "shot at agents with commercial artillery shell fireworks," thus forcing agents to deploy tear gas and riot munitions.
Judge Ellis reviewed the video. This was completely false. The explosions were DHS's flashbangs!
