@cdarwin@c.imHomeland security officials under the Trump administration
have quietly attempted to subject at least 10 hunger strikers in US immigrant detention to involuntary medical procedures,
including force-feeding, a Guardian investigation has found.
In 2025 and 2026, officials had definitely performed the procedures on at least three detained immigrants
and probably subjected two more to the forced treatment
– widely considered torture by human rights groups.

@Defiance@sfba.socialLÁZ - “Kétség” (2025)
Hungarian band with a modernized “post punk sound”. They cite Saccharine Trust as an inspiration! Kids these days. I love when they say stuff like that.
I like the vocals, sure. But the guitar-centric music is the real draw for me. The sound is a mix of high energy staccato with the occasional jazzy no wave jam with starts and stops.

@lpryszcz@genomic.social`Stephen Elop is your typical "successful CEO". "Successful" like in inheriting one of the biggest and most successful mobile phone makers and, in a couple of years, turning it into ashes. You can’t invent such "success".
During Elop's tenure, Nokia's stock price dropped 62%, their mobile phone market share was halved, their smartphone market share fell from 33% to 3%, and the company suffered a cumulative €4.9 billion loss`

@teledyn@mstdn.caThe ‘Analog Warmth’ of Vinyl Has Been Mostly Digital Since the ’80s, Says Sound Engineer | Headphonesty
I'm not giving up on a pure analog signal path, but this confirms my worst fear:
"The shift to digital processing in vinyl production began in 1979 when Ampex released their ADD-1 Digital Delay. This device, built specifically for vinyl cutting, soon became standard equipment in mastering studios across the globe."
They cite one and only one at-time-of-writing holdout; there must be more!
