Wikipedia founder comments on Gaza genocide article sparks backlash
Jimmy Wales challenges the neutrality of Wikipedia's 'Gaza genocide' article, prompting a pushback from editors amid wider debate on how to cover "Israel's" actions against Palestine.

I was looking for my dishwasher manual. I noticed next to the manual, a link that said "Free Open Source Software". Curious, I clicked on it, and it's a long list of licenses and copyright information that is used in the dishwasher. Ctrl-F, and sure enough - my name's on the list.
I feel like I should have gotten a discount on the dishwasher, or at the very least access to its firmware source code! 🤠

The Thirteenth Floor (1999) was a great concept but the execution (the acting and dialogue) weren't the greatest - and this is coming from me, who watches and doesn't mind a lot of B movies. This one could really do with a modern remake. Simulation etc type stuff. I can just imagine this remade now, but so much better 😂

The Thirteenth Floor (1999)
In Los Angeles, a wealthy man, known as Mr. Fuller, discovers a shocking secret about the world he lives in. Fearing for his life, he leaves a desperate message for a friend of his in the most unexpected place.

I don't appreciate the people who mock this poor man.

Border Patrol agent Gregory Lairmore is on the stand narrating surveillance video of the sammie toss. 'Now he’s struck me with the sandwich,' Lairmore says.

Maybe I'm in my own little info bubble but I find it hard to believe that 60% of Canadians would support a new pipeline from Alberta to the west coast. I was disappointed with Carney's negotiation/capitulation to Smith, and I think longterm it's a misstep by the Liberals. Indigenous People will fight it tooth and nail, and we should support them in that effort. B.C. doesn't want a new terminal on their coast. Demand for oil continues to drop and there's a real risk the pipeline is severely underused upon completion. Most of the money made from oil moving through this pipe will leave Canada. Canada's reputation is polluted with this announcement while the majority of countries continue to develop alternative energy solutions. I can understand the support from Alberta as the province doesn't appear to have a strategy for transitioning from an oil dependent economy. But who are the other Canadians that Angus Reid surveyed?

The latest piece of research by the Swiss Seismological Service, published summer 2025, links swarms of small tremors beneath Mont Blanc in the European Alps to rapid thawing of ice and snow during a heatwave in 2015.
Percolating downwards, the extra water eventually found its way into a major fault zone that slices through the 12km-long (7-mile) Mont Blanc Road Tunnel, lubricating it and causing it to shift sufficiently to trigger a burst of low-level seismic activity. The occurrence of small tremors has since remained elevated, substantially hiking the risk of bigger quakes in the future.

The image shows a person with distinctive sideburns wearing what looks like a high-collared costume or uniform with buttons visible at the neck. The individual has a surprised or concerned expression, with widened eyes and a slightly open mouth. The setting appears dark and atmospheric with some textured background elements visible.

This cat, I swear..
Every time I use this basket, after I empty out the clothes, Twig will hop in and demand a ride. So I have to carry him around the house until my arms get tired. #CatsOfMastodon #Caturday

A tabby cat (about 1.5 yrs old) sitting inside of a blue circular laundry basket (with holes). He's sitting upright, his ears forward, and he's looking off to the left. The basket is suspended about 3ft off the ground, held by a barely visible hand/arm holding a yellow handle.
Same cat in the same basket, this time the cat is looking down at the ground. He's dark brown/grey with black stripes along his back.
Top-down view of the cat in the laundry basket. He's still looking off into the distance.

Never forgot how completely fucking cartoonish the entire Adams administration was.
And that our current NY City Council just stood by and watched the whole thing without doing much more than sternly-worded letters.
And Governor Hochul, when given the opportunity, decided *not* to remove Adams from office.

"Greenpoint, we fucking did it!" screamed Council Member Lincoln Restler, who, with Assembly Member Emily Gallagher started the latest round of activism in 2021 after the hit-and-run death of local teacher Matthew Jenson. That death led to a $40-million commitment by the de Blasio administration to make McGuinness safe — but the Adams administration scaled back the full redesign as part of corruption scandal that included top aide Ingrid Lewis-Martin blocking the road diet in exchange for an ap…

Every once in a while in a random thread on here, someone unnecessarily pops into the replies and says "block me, I'm pro-slavery!", or "block me, I'm a nazi!", or expresses something similar. I always appreciate how forthcoming they are before I block them.
Obviously they dress up their sentiment in some kind of vague language of respectability or something, but it's usually pretty clear what they're saying.
