I don't know if you can call it independently. It's a bit like how clothes from the 70s keep coming back in style. They're not being invented again; it's an homage.

The 'i' is capitalized. The multinational corporate conglomerate that owns them is called Independent Journalism.

The headline is pretty misleading. The solar maximimum lowers their time in orbit by up to ten days. The article also mentions that this is beneficial to SpaceX as it means the end of life satellites will re-enter faster, getting them out of the way for their replacements.

I have never enjoyed Adam Conover. He's like Penn Jillette but even more insufferable and less funny, which is a triumph in both respects. But unlike Penn Jillette, Adam has always seemed disingenuous to me. So I'm not particularly surprised to see him shilling crypto, and not particularly surprised to see him backpedal for dear life. It is weird to hear him keep calling himself a comedian. I genuinely didn't know that's what he saw himself as.

I did a deep dive not too long ago on the JFK assassination and what struck me the most is how both the conspiracy theorists and the conspiracy debunkers all seem to take for granted that the police were good at taking and collating witness testimony. Seeing that person X changed their story or person Y's story doesn't align with Z's is only compelling if there's a competent person gathering this information.

I wish there was some way to tell if they were being satirical. Anyway, I have to go catch up on my trueanon truth feed.

So are they going to stop the software carriers at the ports? Are they going to search every software container for Chinese AI?

Oh, no doubt. But we need to normalize not taking at face value pictures of text. At least make them put some effort in.

This image looks like it was touched up by AI. I would hold judgements like this until more information is available. But I can assure you that you are correct in your assumption: all CEOs have pissed off people, nasty or otherwise.

Dude that's awesome. What if superheroes were sad? I get sad sometimes.

Whereas with a flashlight you can point it at any part of the room you want and illuminate it, but the room as a whole isn't as bright.

Many of my flashlights (I own 3, not trying to brag) are brighter than my ceiling lights by a huge margin and quite easily illuminate a whole room. This analogy only really "works" if you're talking about a maglight from the 90s.

Is this the bargaining phase?
