@johnhobbs@mstdn.caAs many of you know, I very much enjoy classical music. I have many favorites. One of those is the William Tell Overture by Gioachino Rossini – a portion of which was used at the as the theme music for the TV series “The Lone Ranger” in the 50’s and 60’s.
Recently I encountered a concert hall version of this piece that took a very entertaining approach to that classical work. For those of you who remember The Lone Ranger (and everyone else as well) I encourage you to click on the embedded link – to both enjoy the music as well as the humor.

@bibbleco@infosec.exchangeWas just looking for something on our local Bargains Hunt style auction shop, and noticed a link on the nav menu: "AI videos". Well, I had to look, didn't I... These are TOTALLY NOT FREAKY at all, there is something wrong with your head if you think otherwise... Brainworms, probably.

@cdarwin@c.im"By the end of 2026, Trump will have begun to distance himself from the aggressively pro-AI industry policies that characterized his AI strategy in 2025,"
wrote retired New York University professor and AI entrepreneur Gary Marcus.
"The giant AI infrastructure plays (like Project Stargate) that he championed after his inauguration will look like an unprofitable and underused mistake.
So will his utter failure to meaningfully regulate AI,

@karlauerbach@sfba.socialI've been railing about the need to restructure SCOTUS for rather a while now. (I've added a couple of URLs after the Guardian opinion link.)
Here is an opinion piece that says something similar.
It adds something that I missed - that SCOTUS and Congress are filled with people who think that if El Cheato goes away that his mess will also go away.
