How Did Poland Get Left Off The Windows XP Map?
The map above shows an odd fact, it includes New Zealand (frequently left off maps) BUT removes Poland for some bizarre reason. Here’s the story from redditor Derisiak: I was quite surprised to hear this, so I went and tried to understand in detail how this could have happened, and it’s pretty interesting. It’s because […] -

Apparently the nightly email didn't go out last night. The problem was an error when it tried to read the Linkblog entries for the day. I've seen reports that these errors happen when you try to read the Links tab on scripting.com. The error shouldn't kill the email sending, it should just omit the linkblog entries, and publish the rest. These kinds of problems always pop up at the worst time. Luckily yesterday wasn't a big news day, and you can read about it on the blog. -
Elon Musk Wants To Get Into Wireless Phones And He’s Probably Not Going To Have A Good Time
There have been rumblings for a while that America’s richest and most annoying white supremacist, Elon Musk, really wants to get into the wireless phone business. His lobbyists have been making noise in support for broader phone unlocking rules, and there’ve been several IPO-fluffing press leaks over the last few months indicating they’re keen on […] -

Can Dems Put Woke to Bed?
Republicans amp up the fear-mongering on "communism" as Democrats try to move past some of their nominees' most controversial past statements. In the words of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: "Woke 1 was crazy." Jon and Lovett discuss how Democrats can pivot, today's Democratic primaries in Wisconsin and Minnesota, Trump's desperation to end the war he started, and his newest executive order on vaccines.
They also react to the Senate Republicans' YOLO caucus surrendering on Todd Blanche's confirmation, Jesse Watters's disdain for the WNBA, and Hunter Biden's appearance on Tucker Carlson's show. Then, Lovett is joined by Montana congressional candidate and smokejumper Sam Forstag to discuss why he's running for office, the impact of the DOGE cuts, the housing crisis in his state, and more.

I have spent a few days scattered over three weeks supervising a new version of frontier which took almost a decade to develop originally for Mac in 80s and 90s for node.js and electron. Without Claude I’m pretty sure that was never going to happen. I’m paying $100 a month for that.

👁️ Personally I'm against vertical drinking. But who am I to tell others how they should drink? Particularly those that have been sat down at a desk all day and are looking to stand vertically for a bit. What a load of swaddle. (sic)

The Cult of Lush
Prepare to be love bombed by a bath bomb. This week, Iman follows her nose into the aggressively fragrant Cult of Lush with the Scam Goddess herself, Laci Mosley (@divalaci) . Beneath the glitter, naked packaging, and promise that an $18 Sleepy Bear can fix the economy, they uncover corporate “family” language, personality based group interviews, mandatory hand washing rituals, limited edition scarcity, alleged union busting, and enough employee horror stories to stain a tub permanently. So light a candle, protect your coworkers, and keep the bathwater out of your eyes. Is Lush a harmless cosmetic revolution, or is something murkier bubbling beneath the surface? One thing’s for sure: watch your back, wash your front, and for the love of God, wash your tub.

Mon ex est pédocriminel
Rediffusion - Elle croyait connaître l’homme qu’elle aimait ; puis, un jour, l’impensable surgit : une obsession cachée qui pulvérise leur couple et sa confiance en elle. Comment a‑t‑elle pu manquer les signes ? Le témoignage d’Émilie, cru et intime, nous plonge dans la sidération de ceux qui réalisent trop tard que l'inacceptable peut se tapir derrière la porte de leur propre maison.

Fauci’s Senate Hearing Shows How Conspiracy Theories Have Become Political Weapons
This article is republished from The Conversation under a Creative Commons license. Read the original article. Dr. Anthony Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment and declined to answer questions from a Senate committee more than 100 times on July 29, 2026. The Republican-led hearing – convened to scrutinize Fauci’s management of the pandemic and the origins of COVID-19 – was the latest chapter in a political story that began […] -
Do you ever sweat while computing? I don’t have the survey data to prove it, but I think people, when they compute, expend a lot of energy, enough energy to sweat, and that they sweat more than they replenish with water.

Do you ever feel that there are times when your computing setup is “just right”? Like, in the Goldilocks sense. Everything is just perfect, and you don't want it to change, because the number of bugs and annoyances are down to a minimum…somehow? I'm currently not there, but have been there a few days this year.

Looking for an RSS Feed
When Google Reader was still around, I was subscribed to an rss feed and I lost what that feed was.
I'm pretty sure the name was "The Internet [SOMETHING]", which is stupid vague. It was a feed that every so often would have a post that was photos from any time between the 70's and 90's (estimating here). Just life. Sometimes some Adult 18+ photos. But like a random stereotypical dude from the 70's smoking a Marlboro. Some women out for a girls night.
Maybe someone here will see this and be able to reconnect me with that. I never pursued looking for the website publishing the feed. Didn't think about it until after I had lost it.
Thank you for any leads.

SpaceX’s Earnings Show Elon Wiped Out Two-Thirds Of Twitter’s Ad Business
When SpaceX filed for its IPO, we went through the S-1 to point out just how far off the mark Elon Musk’s predictions about his Twitter takeover turned out to be. Indeed, the failure of Twitter as a business was so catastrophic, Musk had to hide it by merging all his Xs together: he had […] -

🔗 Daring Fireball: A Retraction - the first in 24 years apparently - and very well done IMHO.
My disdain for astrology is so utter, and my esteem for Godier's previous work so high, that it simply never occurred to me that he might have actually made and submitted to the App Store an astrology app, let alone that he'd then feign surprise and frustration that an astrology app was rejected for being an astrology app. I showed him a draft of my post before publication, to make sure I had the story straight, and he offered not a word of caution.

🔗 'Steal Underpants by Blowing a Fortune on AI Tokens' Is, in Fact, Not a Good Business Plan
My impression of consulting giants like Accenture (McKinsey, Bain, Deloitte, KPMG...) has always been that they are very good at looking smart but in fact very bad at actually being smart. The idea that they’re spending serious money on AI tokens to turn PDFs and PowerPoint decks into Markdown only makes me think I’ve overestimated the median intelligence of the people who work there.

@manton - seeing this makes me think that the whole page that manages ‘sources’ in the world of ‘aggregate’ and ‘syndicate’ could be managed in a much better way. I am probably (again) an edge case - but for me it is a confusing cacophony that I have to recalibrate my brain for every time I go 🔗 here.
If you are thinking about it at all - would be happy to summarise my thoughts for you. No point in doing that if you aren’t 😉.

Trump Doubles Down On Conspiracy Theories After DOJ Drops Reflecting Pool Vandalism Charges
