       @magicalthinking 😂 That was another lawsuit & settlement. Usually it is the parent company that forces their media company to settle out of fear Trump will block a buyout or merger by the parent company.

       @magicalthinking Yeah, it was the “legal” way to pay Trump.

       I read this article about nuclear energy from @arstechnica which was originally published on UnDark.While I am glad #Trump desires more nuclear reactors to be built, he needs to stop viewing regulation as a barrier (as the latter’s job is to ensure public safety).Due to cost & profitably, large nuclear reactors are currently the only viable option, but I am glad research continues regarding small reactors.👉🏾 Is a 'Nuclear Renaissance' Possible in the #UnitedStates 🇺🇸? https://undark.org/2025/09/08/trump-nuclear-renaissance/

       Well, that did not take long.👉🏾 #Google removes #ICE-spotting app following #Apple’s ICEBlock crackdown https://www.theverge.com/news/791533/google-apple-ice-tracking-app-store-red-dot-iceblock I would not be surprised if users switch to using #Waze to report ICE (as you can already report the presence of police in the app), but my guess is that app will be heavily moderated to prevent ICE reports.

       @samsethi 🙄 People who use Uncle Tom as an insult probably have not read the book Uncle Tom’s Cabin (if you did, you would understand why).Also, casualty reports from Gaza have primarily originated from Hamas (a terrorist organization) either from the Health ministry (under Hamas control) or a UN agency in Gaza (also under Hamas control).There is also no report on how many killed were combatants verses non-combatants, & Hamas counts both together which is odd.

       @ricci Yeah, I agree. I know of the 145 million Flipboard users, about 1200 (I think‽) have turned on Fediverse sharing, & those stats are thankfully included by @fediverseobserver (which makes it easier to measure).Threads being around 50,000 makes sense, as I doubt Meta would mention any stats under a million to the press (I wish they did for what it is worth).

       @futurebird @billiglarper Another thing I have noticed is that many AI’s are programmed with a personality. Google Gemini comes across as a helpful, but informative butler, providing reasonable answers but scared to discuss anything too controversial.Grok (on 𝕏) is like a snarky best friend, who is intelligent but wild & has no issues embracing taboos or breaking the law.Couple the fact that 𝕏 also has those flirtatious companies (ewwwww!!!!) & this “AI is your soulmate” becomes an issue.

       Another day, another social platform embracing the #Atmosphere (it is currently in Beta).It is called Gander Social, & it is hosted in #Canada 🇨🇦: https://gandersocial.ca/Unlike #WSocial, Gander Social will use the standard Atmosphere protocol, which means they will be able to easily interact with #Bluesky users. They plan on launching sometime this year. I am curious as to why they chose Atmosphere over the #Fediverse.Discovered via @grrlscientist (on their #CounterSocial account).
