Ex producer from the CBC legacy media in Canada turns the tables on the network, admitting what we already knew, that they produce nothing but propaganda.
Legacy media is dead.
We are the media now, and 𝕏 is the platform for independent journalists and unfiltered truth.
PEOPLE ARE BLAMING ELON MUSK FOR “DEATHS” FROM USAID CUTS — BUT THE DATA AND REALITY SAY OTHERWISE
Opponents are loudly claiming that cutting wasteful USAID spending is killing people in poor countries.
Here’s what’s actually happening:
• No evidence of mass deaths — Preliminary 2025 mortality data from several African countries shows no increase in deaths after major USAID cuts. In some places, deaths even decreased.
• USAID had serious problems — Widespread waste, fraud, and misuse of taxpayer money. Multiple USAID officials have been charged with stealing funds and pled guilty. Programs included bizarre spending like drag shows in Ecuador, pushing certain ideologies abroad, and even influencing foreign elections.
• Good parts were preserved — Effective humanitarian aid was transferred to the State Department. Only the wasteful, fraudulent, or politically weaponized portions were cut.
• Fearmongering with models — Claims of “millions dying” come from projections and assumptions, not actual body counts. No one can name specific victims caused by the cuts.
@PeterDiamandis@elonmusk AFAIK Ground News is taking an interesting approach … Ground News shows every organization on a given topic and each organization’s bias; Ground News reports on stories that failed to have been reported.
The U.S. has the unpredictable POTUS4547 who seems to change his mind between meals.
Perhaps we will need to wait for future historians to tell us whether TRUMP was good or evil or both.
imho he has abandoned Ukraine as well as the EU,
fortunately Ukraine has not abandoned the EU. @brentgofftv
i watch DW using the DW app on my Sony Bravia TV
Why do i not see “Top Stories in 90 seconds”?
before DW upgraded this app a few months ago,
“Top Stories in 90 seconds” was available.

it’s not possible to map out every possible move with any computer today:
The number of possible moves in a chess game varies by position, but you’re likely asking about the total number of possible games or the number of legal moves in a typical position.
•Number of Possible Games: The total number of possible chess games is astronomically large. Claude Shannon, a pioneer in information theory, estimated the number of possible games (the “game-tree complexity”) to be around 10^120, known as the Shannon number. This accounts for all possible sequences of moves up to a typical game length of about 40 moves, considering legal moves in each position. This number is far greater than the number of atoms in the observable universe (~10^80).
•Legal Moves in a Position: On average, there are about 35 legal moves in a typical chess position. This varies:
◦Opening Position: In the starting position, each player has 20 possible moves (16 pawn moves—each pawn can move one or two squares forward—and 4 knight moves—two knights, each with two possible moves).
◦Midgame: Studies suggest an average of 30–40 legal moves per position, depending on the board’s complexity.
◦Endgame: The number of legal moves decreases as pieces are captured, sometimes dropping to just a few in simplified positions.
If you’re asking about a specific position or phase of the game, please clarify, and I can provide a more tailored answer. For example, I could calculate the exact number of legal moves for a given board setup if you provide it.
@ELonMuskNewssX even if i were not an Elon Musk fan, i see nothing wrong with Elon Salute because contrary to popular belief, his salute is absolutely not a Nazi salute.
Even if it were a Nazi salute, which it is not, it was fully unintentional.

DW news is not making progress in cleaning up its Android app that runs on our Sony Bravia TV
Fact: today is July 2nd
Fact: DW News latest episode via Bell Canada FibeTV network is June 12th
June 12th is c. 3 weeks ago!
@joschaweber@brentgofftv@dwnews .
@joschaweber here is a fact that many legacy media sources report incorrectly.
recently i heard 4 SpaceX Starships have blown up.
blowing up and being blown up are different states.
SpaceX performs iterative testing and will chose to blow up a Starship if the flight circumstances merit it.
OTOH a few days ago a Starship did blow up on its launchpad apparently because of a methane leak.

i do hope @BarbaraMassing will focus on https://t.co/nEq9hFUYua when she becomes Director General 2025-10-01
i reported 18 days ago that it is broken.
it’s still broken
here is a new example:
try to find slowly read news via a browser in Windows 10 … if you are lucky enough to find it, try next to locate its English translation.
@BarbaraMassing
congratulations on your rise to the top of DW NEWS as Director General 2925-10-01
Your media needs substantial improvements.
examples:
i have been a computer programmer for over half a century, regardless i have difficulty navigating your website.
finding “news slowly read” via a browser is painful.
