It's frankly insane to me that this isn't the default of every image viewer. When I'm zooming to like 6000%, do you really think I want to see some bilinear filtered blurry mess?? NO, SHOW ME THE PIXELS!

Emmanuel Macron says American free speech is "the opposite of free speech." In his view, freedom only exists inside a "common framework" set by the state.

He compared posting an insult online to hitting someone in the street. Those are different things, because one is speech and the other is violence.

He wants people punished for posting "nonsense," with state-backed fact-checkers deciding what qualifies. He wants a verified identity behind every social media account. He has written to Ursula von der Leyen demanding the DSA be enforced "much faster, much more forcefully."

This is entirely too accurate, and applies regardless of beliefs.

Seems @StackOverflow is now blocking random residential IP addresses. Barely cared to reference their poorly managed site, but interesting I apparently warrented a block for daring to view it.

[William Chambers @BiosElement]

Aaaand randomly unblocked. Already submitted a ticket, be interesting if they have a reason or just their system freaking out randomly.

同じ隣国のウクライナは…
・ロシアと友好条約締結♡
・国境条約締結♡
・核兵器を放棄し安全の約束♡
・ロシア軍の国内駐留を容認♡
・経済も深く結びつける♡

結果クリミアを不法に併合、その後全面侵攻。

これ全部ナマで見て「ロシアと友好なら安全」とか…どれだけお勉強できないのアンタ

This is still occurring, every day. Rarely are conflicts ever so clear and well documented from both sides, yet the free world still cannot align and would rather bicker and debate, years in. We have learned nothing from the mistakes that brought World War.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

We know from intelligence and some people around Putin that at the beginning of September Putin said, “No rules now.” The Russians couldn’t occupy us. So now they are doing massive attacks and massive killings. And of course they want to go after our bridges and, from what we understand, after our data centers, internet, cell network, hospitals, kindergartens, schools, universities – everything. They want people to run away from their cities, and we need to do everything to save our people and cities.

F-16s destroy 50 to 60% of jet drones now. This is one way, and we work a lot on getting weapons for F-16s. The second way is fast interceptors. Now we have five interceptors being tested. One day they are 70% effective, the other day – 30%. So, answering the question “When can we scale up the production?” – we don’t have billions to produce a million interceptors which will not work. Engines are key. We import a lot and produce some, but these numbers are not enough.

So out of these 5 samples, some were used five times, some ten, and some only once. But you had one, and destroyed one Russian drone. This is the problem. I don’t know the exact date, but in October, we will have 400 of these interceptors. And it is normal when you use 400 interceptors over several days of attacks, and you say, “Look, guys, sorry, but it destroys only 10%. It doesn’t work.” Or, for example, if it is 30% or more, “Great, guys, you have to work a little bit on it, and when the percentage is 60–70% – huge success.”

Honestly that's quite an achievement... Microsoft works really hard to keep Teams just barely functional

[Blume Industries CEO Balding 大老板 @BaldingsWorld]

Let's just stop and ponder how impressive this really is for Europe: they have created a product that is demonstrably worse than Teams.

[Darth Putin @DarthPutinKGB]

We invaded Ukraine to prevent it from having weapons like these. Now Ukraine is making their own.

Andrew Ross Sorkin gushes over Trump's new America. gov website on live TV while Joe Kernen sits there stunned.

Sorkin is not a Trump fan, and he lets that be known. But the moment he said the word "credit," Kernen nearly fell out of his chair.

SORKIN: “I want to be clear. I am actually not critical of the president in this instance at all, because I actually think it was great to bring everybody together.”

“For 29,000 websites, the ability to get a passport, the ability to get your medicare. I mean, the it was like being at a product. It was like being at an Apple product announcement. And when they went through what they did and the president was there in the morning and walked through what they were doing, and Marco Rubio was there, Scott Bessent was there, the whole cabinet was there. It was one of those moments where you actually thought the government was working for you, really? And Gebbia deserves an extraordinary amount of praise for it.”

KERNEN: “Do you feel great? Are you have the warmest fuzziest feeling right now listening.”

SORKIN: “And by the way, the president deserves credit for that."

KERNEN: "Oh my God!"

SORKIN: "Credit for putting you in that role. And Jeb and his team putting it all together.”

KERNEN: “So now I'm getting hot flashes. Wow. So this is just amazing.”

CONTEXT (What happened): Trump launched America. gov, a single government site meant to replace 29,000 federal websites for things like passports and Medicare. It was built by Airbnb co-founder Joe Gebbia, and Sorkin was in the room for the demo.

Sorkin also credited the Trump accounts interface as "really easy to use" and "like using a real app."
