"As a political force, the Labour left is finished. The tactic of entryism – entering the Labour party and changing it – is finished too."
"..a string of local council victories next year would pave the way for an unprecedented challenge to #Labour – not from the right, as the party has always had to fight, but from its radical flank. And this new movement could take parts of Lab…

The British left is coming for the Government
Whisper it as yet, but after five long years of confusion and disarray, the British left is rallying. Local political organisations are coalescing, from Chiswick to Liverpool to Newcastle. The Green P

A single paragraph buried deep in a spending bill that passed the GOP-controlled House of Representatives earlier this month is causing growing concern among democracy watchdogs
-- who warn the provision will make it so only the well-to-do would be in a good position to launch legal challenges against a Trump administration that has shown over and over again its disdain and disregard for oversight or judicial restraint of any kind.
Coming just about half-way through what Presiden…

'This Is What Autocrats Do': Concern Grows Over Single Paragraph Buried Deep in GOP Bill | Common Dreams
The provision would force those challenging Trump "to pay up in the form of a posted bond—something many people can't afford to do. That means only the wealthy will be able to even attempt to challenge the most powerful man in the country."

Direct-to-Cell: A First Look into Starlink's Direct Satellite-to-Device Radio Access Network through Crowdsourced Measurements
Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite mega-constellations have recently emerged as a viable access solution for broadband services in underserved areas. In 2024, Direct Satellite-to-Device (DS2D) communications, which enable unmodified smartphones to connect directly to spaceborne base stations, entered large-scale beta testing, with Starlink globally leading deployments. This paper presents the first measurement study of commercial DS2D services. Using crowdsourced mobile network data collected in t…

Performance Analysis of Wireless Communication Systems Assisted by Fluid Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces
This letter investigates the performance of emerging wireless communication systems assisted by a fluid reconfigurable intelligent surface (FRIS). Unlike conventional reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs), an FRIS consists of fluid-inspired metamaterials arranged in a densely packed matrix of sub-elements over a surface. It dynamically activates specific elements for signal reflection and modulation based on real-time channel conditions. Considering a downlink scenario where a base station…

J'avais envie de parler de LLM et d'autres trucs sans trop m'attarder sur l'anxiété que me cause la montée de l'autoritarisme. VoilŠ le résultat.
