Cuba is out of fuel, strangled by the US fuel chokehold.

People are dying, systems are breaking down.

This is collective punishment against a people who have done absolutely nothing except live their lives under hard conditions imposed by the US blockade for decades.

It’s a blatant violation of international law, a crime in progress.

Canadians are connected to Cuba: we’ve been welcomed, had great holidays, heard incredible music, done business and made friends.

We need to help Cuba right now, even if it bothers Trump:
Canada should send immediate humanitarian fuel aid, in as much quantity as we can quickly assemble.

And we should be speaking out loudly on the international stage: US military action against Cuba is absolutely unacceptable!

It’s time for the countries of the world to rally and stop this impunity before it takes another sovereign country into chaos.

We have to come to Cuba's aid. What's happening is too cruel, too horrible.

P.S. – Big props to Jeff for his very down-to-Earth attitude on this, as always.

I don't need more electrolytes.

No, a VPN isn't going to make you more secure, in most cases.

Website Maker: All of us are already using your service, the market is saturated. Just lower prices.

PCB maker: You're swell, do you still need to advertise?

Addictive freemium mobile game: NO.

Meal kit service: I happen to like preparing my meals, thanks.

News site: Oh boy, I can get a nuanced balance between facts and lies? Tell me more please.

Gig economy mental health site: Get. Fucked.

Error: password must contain:

Three lower case letters for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven upper case letters for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine digits for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One special character for the Dark Lord on his dark throne;
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

One username to rule them all, one password to find them,
A second factor to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them;
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie

My contribution to the current key-clicker fidget craze: a two-key clicker where one is a modifier key. So you can type to ctrl/cmd-Z to undo in your real life.

No guarantees it will work, but you can try as much as you want! 😉

Modifier (Undo) Keyboard Clicker - Free 3D Print Model - MakerWorld

Download this free 3D print file designed by Geekman. There's no undo in real life, but with this key clicker, you can try as much as you want! This is a keyboard clicker that lets you to install a 1.25u modifier key alongside a standard 1u keycap. This allows for classic shortcut combinations such as ctrl-z (undo) or ctrl-s (save). For Mac users, Cmd keys work too!AssemblyWhen installing keyswitches, remember that the modifier (longer key) is on the left, and the keyswitches have pins towards the bottom. Real keycaps aren't cubes, so you need to orient your keyswitches correctly. AttributionThis model is a modification of the clicker by Hartman 3D Designs. (see sidebar)

Isn't it interesting to see Elon inflating the value of his SpaceX IPO to give himself the magic "trillionaire" number just weeks after their biggest competitor's rocket exploded on the launch pad, destroying facilities and vehicle, preventing them from being able to fulfil tons of obligations, which undoubtedly inflates the value of SpaceX?

Mark Carney’s AI strategy suggests Canadians’ concerns about AI will evaporate if they become more “literate” about the technology.

In trying to boost industry, Carney ignores many of the biggest concerns about generative AI and data centres. If anyone needs to become more AI literate, it’s him.

As we head full-steam towards the inevitable AI-bubble-burst and the subsequent economic collapse, I can't help noticing that we'll be coming up on almost exactly 100 years since the original Great Depression.

Great Depression II: AI Boogaloo?
