I love that, aside from giving a very decent half-hour summary of the fall of #Twitter ever since #ElonMusk took over it in late 2022, #JohnOliver insists on still calling it Twitter.

The Kentucky Supreme Court ruled Thursday that a measure establishing
public funding for charter schools is unconstitutional,
affirming that state funds “are for common schools and for nothing else.”
The 2022 measure was enacted by the state’s Republican-dominated legislature over Democrat Gov. Andy Beshear’s veto.
It was struck down the next year by a lower court.
The state’s high court ruled the “Constitution as it stands is clear that it does not permit funnel…

This is "interesting" - In a civil trial in which Elon M. is the defendant they are having difficulty finding enough unbiased jurors to empanel a jury:
Well, that's one way to evade liability: become so hated that there aren't enough people who don't hate your guts to form a jury.

Already 6 years old, so not even taking into account post-2022 hyperscaling, this is a sobering, very rational and well argued 20 min presentation for some cold flush reality check of the hot fever dreams of AI proponents (and all YOLO energy/resource guzzlers of any walk/standing):

Ein paar Anmerkungen zum Markt für Elektroautos in 2025:
* Tesla schrumpft bereits zum 3. Mal in Folge. Inzwischen werden nur noch knapp 25% der Verkäufe aus 2022 erreicht.
* Nicht Smart war es, den KLeinwagen ForTwo gegen einen SUV auszutauschen.
*Für die Chinesen BYD erfüllen sich alle Träume: sie haben Tesla weltweit und auch in D abgehängt: 700% bei Steckerautos.
* D ist zweitgrößter Produzent von Steckerautos. Warum weiter Verbrenner bauen?

Mein Vater war (guter) Kunde im Mitarbeiter-Shop des Unternehmens, bei dem er 2004 nach 35 Jahren Betriebszugehörigkeit in Rente ging. Zuletzt hat er dort 2018 oder 2019 eingekauft, im Januar 2023 ist er verstorben. Ich habe den Shop mehrfach darüber informiert. Kurz vor Weihnachten erneut Werbepost an die Adresse des im Frühjahr 2022 verkauften Elternhauses.

The BBC running damage control on its own broadcast is wild to witness. The most egregious part of the affair to me is that no one from BAFTA or the BBC even bothered to apologize to Michael B Jordan and Delroy Lindo when they got off the stage, let alone tell *them* what was going to be done about it. There was no effort to bring the three people involved together for resolution at the time of the incident, nothing.
But the other part of this that just grates on me with every article is the BBC trying to defend itself by saying “that another racial slur had been edited out of the broadcast.”
