For the Americans and other potential train-wreck-enjoyers: this year’s Eurovision Song Contest grand finale is tonight (shortly), and the whole thing is exploding into drama over the inclusion of Israel, with backstage fights and countries being disqualified, participants and partners dropping out left and right, presenters refusing to award points, audience mics being cut and replaced with canned applause, and more. I have a feeling this will be one to watch 👀

“One topic where TikTok has been used in an effort to shape political views and to distort facts is in regard to the conflict in Gaza, but this is not the result of China’s activities. It reflects the spontaneous efforts of users. This kind of problem is a feature of social media, where uncurated and unverified information is the norm" https://www.csis.org/analysis/tiktok-and-national-security

You know, if Apple just put Hypervisor virtualization on visionOS, and let you install a macOS VM…

…this could just be how visionOS works, all the time. A Classic environment with all the power of the Mac as we know it. Individual Mac windows floating amongst the rest

I am grieving for my friends in Argentina, which has just elected a genuine monster to its highest political office.

(BTW journalists, Javier Milei is not a libertarian. He is a fascist.)
