the case for nationalizing SpaceX just keeps making itself
Space Force recently tried to book rides for three future satellite missions, but #SpaceX declined to offer its services, as it doesn't want to sell the Falcon rockets anymore. No other rocket companies offered to take them either. #EverythingIsFine

something that occurred to me is, everyone knows it’s possible to become a musician with work and practice. but you can’t work on and practice music while staring slackjawed at your phone. the real promise of generative AI is the ability to ‘make’ ‘art’ without reducing your slackjawed scroll time
“…practices which had been long abandoned… public executions, torture to extract confessions…and the deportation of whole populations—not only became common again, but were tolerated and even defended by people who considered themselves enlightened and progressive.” - 1984, George Orwell

When we were casting Teen Titans, I asked if one of my best friends could audition. Everyone was like, “Yeah, sure, whatever.” Then the tapes came in and everyone said, “Isn’t Khary Payton amazing?” I said, “That’s my friend.” And they were like, “THAT’S your FRIEND???” youtube.com/shorts/gjfBy...

If I started using AI to generate my images, it would remove the thing that I like doing, which is the act of drawing, and make my work look like every other AI "artist's work", so my work would no longer stand out, and it would alienate my existing fans, so that's out. But what else?

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book has been rewritten… And that process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” - 1984, George Orwell arstechnica.com/health/2026/...
If you still have a Twitter account, today is a great day to delete it. Nothing you could possibly get out of that site is worth having your name associated with child pornography. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

Hundreds of local police departments are preparing to deploy autonomous, AI-driven surveillance drones. The drones are capable of following a single vehicle across an entire city, capturing footage through apartment windows, and generally recording daily life from the sky without being noticed.

"Hoover’s Federal Bureau of Investigation was keeping watch. In 1967, the FBI quietly unleashed a covert surveillance operation targeting “subversive” civil rights groups and Black leaders, including the Black Panther Party, Martin Luther King Jr., Elijah Muhammad, Malcolm X, and many others."
