We have awarded these people contracts in the Ministry of Defence. What the fuck are we doing.
These are the people who decide for governments whose door gets kicked down and which children get dragged off to camps.
There are other reasons for the UK government not to award or continue Palantir contracts but this statement of intent by its CEO must surely be decisive?
I mean.
Maybe somebody could look at all this, yeah?
Could still just be a conspiracy for global realignment of energy distribution

I have to log out of social and news apps and move them all into a folder on the last screen of my phone, to get past that muscle memory of just tapping when opening phone - but then I stick to it pretty well. Very refreshing.
Devastatingly good

NEW: Is this the broligarchy’s first world war? AI, like war & rape, is a hyper-masculine fantasy of God-like power, a myth at the dark heart of what we’re seeing play out in the Gulf. This war hasn’t replaced the Epstein scandal. It is the Epstein scandal.

What does it look like to build one of the world's largest offshore wind farms, one month at a time?
Each cell in the grid shows a full month of construction, using AIS data from Kpler to follow every single vessel as they go about the installation and commissioning of the giant 1.2GW wind farm.
The messengers from Minas Tirith bearing the Red Arrow arrive in Dunharrow and present it to King Théoden. He answers: ‘Say to Denethor that in this hour the King of the Mark himself will come down to the land of Gondor, though maybe he will not ride back.’
This is a slow death for the River Boyne. There has never been any particular effort to alleviate the pressure on this river despite years (decades?) of warnings and reports

Reports of gas shortages are categorically untrue and lead to dangerous scaremongering.
Reporting in the Telegraph presents a completely implausible scenario in which the UK could be disconnected from all forms of gas supply and energy markets.
“Prof Pedro Arrojo-Agudo, UN Special Rapporteur on the human right to clean water, has singled out the English system for criticism, saying water should be managed as a publicly owned service, rather than run by private companies set up to benefit shareholders.”

A juxtaposition for the ages…
Aragorn and his Grey Company reach Dunharrow at dusk. When Éowyn can’t dissuade him from his plan to take the Paths of the Dead, she asks instead if she can join him. Aragorn refuses—reminding her that she promised King Théoden to serve as the people’s leader until his return.
