“How’s this, then? Ed Sheeran, beloved by all, left without an opening band at present. Enter you two.” “What if we want a free Palestine, Murray?” “I reckon you’ll get lots of things for free when you’re proper rockstars. This might be your ticket.”

“If you set out to design from scratch a tool to facilitate authoritarian rule, it’d look exactly like AI. You would cherish it for its ability to destabilise our shared reality & its creation of disinformation on a scale unprecedented in human history.” theguardian.com/books/ng-int…

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 The Queensland government’s controversial ban on two pro-Palestine phrases – 'from the river to the sea' and 'globalise the intifada' – will be challenged in the High Court with seven plaintiffs lodging a writ of summons and statement of claim on Tuesday. Marque Lawyers, acting on behalf of the plaintiffs and led by Stephen Keim SC, is seeking to strike out “s 52DA of the Criminal Code and the amendments to the Police Powers Act” on the grounds they “impermissibly burden the implied freedom of political communication and are thereby invalid”. deepcutnews.com/p/queensland…

people misunderstand the icarus story. the problem was not that he flew too high. it's that the wings were made of beeswax, which offered very little resistance to heating. with modern materials he would have had no problems. we can fly as close to the sun as we want now
