Maryland Democrats seeking further limits on ICE cooperation Maryland lawmakers move to block police from detaining immigrants for ICE, focusing on public safety and civil rights protections.

Right now, Maryland senators are debating the Community Trust Act, which would limit informal coordination between local law enforcement and ICE. Lawmakers already banned formal "287(g)" agreements, and this would go a step further.

This street art piece depicting Gogo Yubari (my favorite character) from Kill Bill can be seen in Weston-super-Mare, UK, and can be found on Google Maps.
It was created by street artist Jamie Scanlon - known as JPS. At 19, battling addiction but inspired by Banksy, he began creating his 40+ works.

Experts say despite the U.S. and Iran ceasefire largely holding, gas prices are unlikely to drop right away. Even when oil tankers can pass freely in the Strait of Hormuz again, energy production infrastructure in the Middle East will take months, if not years, to recover.

Florida launches probe into OpenAI as company eyes massive IPO What just happened? Florida's top law enforcement officer has opened an investigation into OpenAI, saying the company's technology poses potential security and safety risks as it prepares for an initial public offering that could value the firm at as much as $1 trillion. Attorney General James Uthmeier announced the probe on Thursday, stating that Florida will issue subpoenas to the San Francisco-based AI developer. In a video posted to X, he said his office is examining whether OpenAI's data and artificial intelligence systems "could fall into the hands of America's enemies, such as the Chinese Communist Party." OpenAI's generative AI models, including ChatGPT, have seen rapid global adoption across industries as organizations integrate them into daily operations. Uthmeier's move is part of growing scrutiny from US officials over the national security implications of large-scale AI deployments and the handling of vast datasets used to train these systems. The attorney general also raised public safety concerns tied to the company's flagship product, which he said now has more than 900 million weekly active users. In his remarks, he alleged that ChatGPT has been linked to criminal conduct, including child sexual abuse offenses and prompts that encourage suicide or self-harm. Uthmeier added that authorities have indications that ChatGPT was likely used to assist the gunman in carrying out the recent mass shooting at Florida State University, where two people were killed. OpenAI did not immediately respond to a request for comment. While characterizing artificial intelligence as a transformative force, Uthmeier emphasized the need for oversight. "AI is a monumental leap in technology," he said, adding that it should be developed to "supplement, support, and advance mankind, not lead to an existential crisis or our ultimate demise." The Florida investigation adds to a growing patchwork of state-level scrutiny of OpenAI and other AI developers. In September 2025, California Attorney General Rob Bonta and Delaware Attorney General Kathy Jennings sent a letter to the company expressing "deep concern over increased reports of how OpenAI's products interact with children." The inquiry comes at a pivotal moment for OpenAI, whose rapid commercial expansion has drawn both regulatory attention and investor enthusiasm. Analysts have projected that its planned IPO could be among the largest in US tech history. For regulators, however, the same tools driving innovation have amplified questions about accountability, data handling, and misuse – issues that state officials like Uthmeier say warrant closer examination before the technology's reach expands further.

Asked the Artemis II crew what kind of ride they're in for on reentry — going from nearly 40x the speed of sound to a 20 mph Pacific splashdown. Won’t be as smooth as a space shuttle landing but I know they can handle it. So proud of this crew.

Surf demonstrates the power of the open social web Flipboard's browser for the open social web is out for web users today.

This statement by @werd.io is one of the things that most excites me about @surf.social -- "This openness also demonstrates that publishers aren’t locked into Surf itself, and you can easily imagine more developers integrating with these feeds and creating other interesting experiences around them."

The Trump Administration’s AI Policy Framework Has an Ideology. It Just Won't Admit It. Genevieve Smith argues that the White House's AI framework prioritizes innovation over safeguards, ignoring bias risks in real-world AI systems.

The White House’s AI framework sidelines concerns about algorithmic bias and discrimination, casting efforts to mitigate those harms as ideological interference, argues Genevieve Smith. Treating AI as “neutral” doesn’t eliminate harm; it risks scaling inequality under the guise of objectivity.

Finished Shrinking S3 and that really is one of the best shows on TV right now, I am shocked I don't hear more about it. Hilarious and heartfelt in equal measure, one of the best ensemble casts around and knows how to punch you in the gut and pick you back up with a smile all without being maudlin
