The Dangers of California’s Legislation to Censor 3D Printing California’s bill, AB 2047, will not only mandate censorware on all 3D printers; it will also criminalize the use of open-source alternatives. Repeating the mistakes of DRM won’t make anyone safer, bu...

Not a penny to make life more affordable for American families, but $70 BILLION for ICE to terrorize our communities.

In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.

249 years later, we have this idiot.

Hell, why have modern medicine in the military at all? Let's get back to vicious battlefield amputations. Anesthesia is woke.

Ransomware negotiator pleads guilty to helping ransomware gang | TechCrunch A former employee of a cybersecurity firm pleaded guilty to aiding ransomware criminals to maximize their profits, with the goal of taking a cut of the ransom.

NEW: Angelo Martino, a former ransomware negotiator, pleaded guilty to helping a ransomware gang get more money — of which he took a cut — from their victims.

He was secretly playing both sides in several ransomware negotiations, and he also deployed ransomware himself with co-conspirators.

Estimates show the 1918 flu epidemic killed about 45,000 US soldiers, about 38% of the total US military deaths in WWI. The flu and its secondary illnesses made up the majority of death by disease. Thousands (possibly as many as 36,000) died before making it from basic training to the battlefield.

At this point, all illusions that Trump’s America would help Ukraine have dissolved. But most people don’t realize how deeply the current administration is steeped in pro-Russian sentiment and activities.

Here’s a quick look. Trump administration and their pro-Russia or anti-Ukraine positions:

Rep. Robert Garcia: "Unfortunately, I have to announce that Democratic members will not participating. This roundtable is not a real hearing. It's set up to appear like one. We should be clear about why that's happening. Last week, Pam Bondi skipped a legally required deposition ... "

This is in response to a new video game called Pragmata, a sci-fi action/adventure game where you play as a spaceman dude in cool armor who protects a little girl with special powers. Apparently, if you like this, your a predator?

The Infowars news is funny, yes. But more importantly, it is an outright rebuke of Alex Jones' evil.

It's testament to the strength and resilience of the Sandy Hook families who survived this bullshit for more than a decade as well as the Onion, which didn't give up on this for the last 18 months.

Thinking Live with Phillips O'Brien on War in Iran and Ukraine A recording from my conversation with Phillips O'Brien

What does the Iran war have to do with sustaining the Russian economy? Lifting sanctions for Russians does nothing for Americans. It just makes it easier for Russia to continue its war in Ukraine. I spoke with @phillipspobrien.bsky.social about Iran and Russia.

Matt Walsh revives a weary RW argument against the right of LGBTQs to start families.

Humans have the right to reproduce. If it's "unnatural," then that means IVF or surrogacy are "wrong." Orientation has nothing to do w/this or adoption.

How about those natural fam Duggars, Matt?

🚨 IRANIAN CARGO SHIP SEIZED

The description – The ship failed to stop & US forces fired to disable the engine room – is a standard escalation measure for VBSS (Visit Board Search & Seizure) operations.

If it's disabled in the location below, that creates a security headache until it can be moved.

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

My kids have measles, I can't afford gas, and I'm going to be dead within 2 years now that the CDC cancelled funding for the mRNA treatment that might have save my life. But at least now we have Secretary of War who is a Pulp Fiction fan.

Here’s the director of the NIH explicitly espousing populism over expertise as the means of determining priorities for federally science funding by leaning into the stupidest possible examples: ivermectin as cancer therapy .

As I understand, only about 4500 SA's have been brought over here to the US, and some went back to SA saying the US was too expensive

Children ‘low-hanging fruit’ in fight to end trans care, official at pro-Trump thinktank says America First Policy Institute, which boasts close ties to president, discussed transgender policy ‘reform’ at DC event

Children are the “low-hanging fruit” in a longer effort to end gender-affirming care for all Americans, an official at a 47-regime-aligned thinktank recently said.

What a ghastly thing to say!

No pay wall.

In a dramatic scene that unfolded in the wee hours this morning, members of the House defeated a ploy by the administration and Speaker Johnson to ram through a 5-year reauthorization of FISA Section 702. Here’s what happened, and what will/should happen next. 1/20
