Artemis Boldly Goes Where No Toilet Has Gone Before:

\n
\n

Artemis II, which launched from Florida Wednesday evening, will put four humans around the Moon for the first time since the Apollo missions ceased in 1972. But the Orion crew vehicle, named Integrity, has something those Apollo astronauts lacked: an onboard toilet. … Nine minutes later, the toilet broke.

Fascinating space toilet coverage

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series:

\n
\n

Rowling has made it abundantly clear that she thinks attacking transgender people via the legal system is a worthwhile cause and a good use of her vast personal fortune. And as much as Harry Potter fans might be excited to see what HBO has cooked up, there’s no way to watch this show without supporting Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on a vulnerable minority.

IOC Reinstates Chromosome Testing, Banning Trans Women From Competition:

So while the new policy makes many assertions—men have advantages over women in sports, all contact sports are more dangerous for women than men—there are few explanations given.

Report: President Donald Trump Is Giving “All The Boys” Dress Shoes That Don’t Fit Right:

\n
\n

In one sense, this sort of behavior won’t really be surprising to anyone who has spent time around a disinhibited and declining older person; thought processes become both less linear and much more legible in that cohort, and in this case Trump’s interior progression from “bored with person talking” to “noticing that person’s shoes” to “telling them to put on new shoes” is no longer interior at all.

We kicked off this war of long-distance pre-taliatory liberation by precision bombing a girls’ school and killing 165 people—“most of them girls aged between 7 and 12”—allegedly to free them from the oppressive yoke of a regime that, I’m told, won’t let girls go to school. I guess they’re free now.

@manton I think the divisiveness you mention is driven by the people selling AI, representing it being able to do tasks it cannot, and forcing it into products it does not need to be in. LLMs can be wonderful at focused use cases (like code generation). But the people selling AI are not interested in limitations and guardrails, which is how you get Google telling students to use Chrome’s AI mode for homework, and OpenAI featuring a chatbot trained on incel forums. They are burying the utility of these products by throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks.
