Dear Microsoft, when I hit the Windows Start menu key and start typing a word to autocomplete a search, I never, ever, EVER want it to return results of something not on my computer. Ever. Like, ever, ever, never.

I offered this Muslim $1000 if he could prove Islam was the 'Religion of Peace' 😇

Always mock religion. It deserves no respect.

Portugal's right-wing leader André Ventura said it clearly: "If you want to wear a burqa? It's really simple! Pack your stuff, catch a flight, and go. Go to Pakistan, go to Saudi Arabia, go to Morocco... Go wherever the hell you want. Just not here!"

The collapse of trust in science is going to go down in history as one of the most sad, bizarre, and destructive social contagions of modern times. We fed billions, cured diseases and powered nations - yet people ran toward conspiracies instead.

No gaming chairs. No fancy desks. Just ball mice, chunky CRTs, and sketchy internet. LAN parties were the golden era of gaming..

I believe that sovereignty over our own body, our own mind and our own thoughts should be held among the most basic individual human rights. In the limit, this entails the right to suicide, to use arbitrary drugs, and to create and join arbitrary cults.

I can't fucking stand Youtube no more. Everything is shit. The sub feed is ass with giant fuckin thumbnails and no sorting options. The search is ass and just shows the same shit as the Homepage. You cant even search most recent. The recommended videos aren't even relevant.

You have to visit my profile regularly if you want to see my tweets. It's the only way. Elon has me on his shit list. Retweet for visibility

Historically , the regions which faced more attacks and wars tend to do worse than the regions which were safer. Southern Italy was the key to rule Mediterranean Sea and always faced attacks. Same for Indian civilisation where it’s the north which had all wars and is poor @grok

Voice of reason!

💥 Garry Kasparov tears into NATO at the Halifax International Security Forum “This is the best show Putin could ever dream of. You will keep deliberating — and it will take you an eternity.” Highly recommended to watch the full video!

What is this?

Never “paraphrase Voltaire.” The correct quote is: “Those who can make you believe absurdities, are those who can make you commit atrocities.” He wrote it in France before the Revolution. “Those” in this historical metaphor is Elon Musk—who uses AI to create the “absurdities.”

Digital ID for every adult is not progress. It is the end of a free society dressed up as convenience. I am a cyber security specialist. This is my take. They are selling it as a fix for illegal migration. That is bollocks. We spend hundreds of billions a year on cyber security and yet the volume of breaches is breaking records. The threat is growing faster than the spend. Digital ID will not stop boats. It will not stop trafficking gangs. It will not fix a broken border. 
Criminals will work around it. Honest citizens will pay the price. It builds giant data banks that track where you go, what you buy, what you read and who you speak to. 
It links your identity to every checkpoint in daily life. 
One breach and your life is exposed. Look at Jaguar Land Rover and the airports in recent weeks. Now imagine that at national scale on an ID system tied to everything you need to live your daily life. Here is the risk that ministers will not admit. 
Ransomware seeded through a supplier or an insider: 
It lies quiet for months.
It rolls through the backups.
On trigger day the register and the recovery sets are both encrypted. 
Payments fail. Health and benefits stall. Borders slow. Citizens are frozen out until a ransom is paid or the state rebuilds from scratch. 
Centralise identity and you centralise failure. Do not fall for the pitch. Function creep is certain.
It starts as login. 
It becomes access to money, travel, speech and public services. 
It turns rights into permissions controlled by the state and its contractors. 
It creates a single point of failure for criminals, insiders and hostile states to target. 
It will punish the elderly, the poor and anyone who is not always online. 
It will centralise risk and outsource blame. 
It will not stop fraud. 
It will not stop illegal migration. 
It will build the machinery for a social credit system by stealth. If ministers cared about the border, they would enforce current laws, resource patrols and processing, close loopholes and remove those with no right to stay. 
You do not need a national ID to do any of that. We scrapped ID cards in 2010 for a reason. 
Britain does not need a central register to prove age or status. 
Yes to privacy first proofs. No to a database state.

Ihr könnt es nicht mehr ungesehen machen..

Grotesque child abuse. And, lest you be in any doubt, “live and let live” does not include abusing others, including children.

I have loved Teddy Roosevelt's declamation on immigrants and immigration for many years, but now is a good time for his eloquence to be more widely known. I will also specify that I agree with both the third paragraph and the final paragraph.
