Staten Island, this is pizza with a purpose. SI Tech x P37R are building a classroom-to-kitchen path for neurodiverse students with SOMM Pizza & Wine Bar. Chip in and share.

Waltz’s team set up at least 20 Signal group chats for crises across the world It’s a more extensive use of the app than previously reported and sheds new light on how commonly the Trump administration’s national security team relies on Signal.

"Waltz’s team set up at least 20 Signal group chats for crises across the world"

With this many active Signal chats, how could they be complying with records law?

Lost my CDC contract after a visit from DOGE. I feel like I’m in the dirt (or TBH eating a pint of ice cream on a couch crying). But here’s the thing: Pushing people downβ€”especially those with heart, purpose, and love for public serviceβ€”doesn’t mean they stay down. It’s literally against their DNA.

I can't sleep - no clue why. 😐 After watching this video that builds on the one @LedByDonkeys created, I may not sleep again until *all of this* ends. There needs to be a global boycott of all of his companies. Nothing will change until we hit oligarchs in their profits. ASD does not cause n*zi.

Decentralized Social Media Is the Only Alternative to the Tech Oligarchy The TikTok ban and Donald Trump's rise to power show how fragile our social media accounts are. We must normalize and invest in decentralized social media.

"Bluesky’s growing user base and rise as a legitimately impressive platform that one can post to without feeling like it’s going into the void is a massive step forward, and proof that it is possible to build thriving alternative platforms":

Behind the scenes, the company was also quietly dismantling a system to prevent the spread of misinformation. When the company announced on Jan. 7 that it would end its fact-checking partnerships, the company also instructed teams responsible for ranking content in the company’s apps to stop penalizing misinformation, according to sources and an internal document obtained by Platformer.

The result is that the sort of viral hoaxes that ran roughshod over the platform during the 2016 US presidential election β€” β€œPope Francis endorses Trump,” Pizzagate, and all the rest β€” are now just as eligible for free amplification on Facebook, Instagram, and Threads as true stories.
