I spent several hours this weekend devouring the brilliant articles by journalists Lucy Osborne and Sirin Kale, recently published in The Guardian, which outline the findings of their year-long investigation into the Free Birth Society (FBS). And oh boy, I have to tell you, ...
Did you know that one of the most common tests of cognitive function is asking the patient to draw a clock? Whether or not they mess it up, and in what way, can be indicative of any number of impairing disorders. — Read the rest The post Measuring the singularity with AI Wor...
I absolutely adore the wonderful hand creations of Italian conceptual artist Mario Mariotti, who is best known for creating whimsical human and animal creatures using only his hands, paint, googly eyes, inventive hand and finger poses, and simple prompts. He created a series...
I hadn't thought about the Knorr scarecrow since the 1980s, but as soon as it appeared on my screen it all came rushing back: every old neuron lighting back up like some immortal and evil prion to visit revenge upon my mind for decades of suppression. — Read the rest The...
TL;DR: Microsoft Office 2024 drops to $149.97 (reg. $249.99), providing speed, consistency, and smarter tools. If your computer tends to slow down the moment a spreadsheet hits the screen, Office 2024 is built to make things run a little more smoothly. — Read the rest The po...

In a startling case of a Trump Administration official accepting responsibility for something, MTV reality TV actor Sean Duffy says he dresses himself. Rather than work to make air travel safer or easier, Transportation Secretary Duffy is really on a thing about how people ...
The Powers-That-Be didn't feel that there was quite enough chaos in the world, so they've taken it upon themselves to poke at our plot with a stick. It seems that Morgan Geyser, the woman who admitted to killing her classmate as a sacrifice to Slender Man in 2014, has...
If you remember type-in computer programs, Doctype magazine is for you. But it's not an exercise in pure nostalgia—the apps you can punch in are just as simple as BASIC was, but use HTML. They run in the web browser, with no internet connection or server required: '10...
Loraine Hutchins has left the building. The groundbreaking author, activist, and bisexual lightning rod behind Bi Any Other Name passed away this November, leaving behind a generation of writers, educators, and fierce queers who know their history because she wrote it. —...
Many people in prison did something that landed them there. Many people in prison have been wrongly incarcerated, arrested for the sake of their skin color, the limited options available to them due to their economic fortunes, or being in the wrong place at the wrong time. —...
Tardigrades shocked scientists in 2008 by surviving 10 days in low Earth orbit. A simple plant has outdone the hardy water bears. Moss attached to the outside of the ISS survived in space for nine months, and may be capable of much longer periods. — Read the rest The post...
I've been using OnePlus' handsets since the OnePlus 6R came out. OnePlus used to be known for making inexpensive phones that could punch well above their weight. Now, they're known for making outstanding flagship hardware designed to make you think, really hard, before...
Left 4 Dead 2 was pretty much the perfect horde shooter, and that came out nearly twenty years ago. Not that that's topped countless contenders, of course, some of which have been really good! Not only is The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu a co-op horde shooter, though, it's also a...
Secretary of State Marco Rubio told a bipartisan group of senators on Saturday that Trump's Ukraine/Russia 28-point peace plan that Trump is pushing Ukraine to accept by Thursday was not drafted by the Trump administration, but is a 'wish list' written by Russia. — Read the...
Apparently, banning fox hunting once wasn't enough, because here we are in 2025, with an MP having to stand up in Parliament and beg the government actually to make it illegal this time. You know, for real. Not pretend-illegal. Not 'wink and gallop' illegal. — Read the rest ...
In this vintage footage from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, one Cory Doctorow has a handle on the newfangled technology and shows the CBC's Laurie Brown how to use it. The seven-minute segment aired on The National on June 19, 1995: 'When you are talking about...
Banana Republic cosplayer, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's rebranded 'Department of War' is threatening to drag Senator Mark Kelly out of retirement and court-martial him for the unspeakable crime of quoting the Constitution. The former astronaut and Navy captain had the...
Turns out you can't just toss your personal lawyer into a federal post like they are a Mar-a-Lago buffet server and expect the indictments to stick. A federal judge just nuked the charges against James Comey and Letitia James because Donald Trump thought the Department of...
Talk about the world's worst party guest. Elon Musk went on nodding sycophant Joe Rogan's podcast to explain how his pet AI, Grok, helps him become the life of a party… by harshing on guests with vulgar insults. This is pathetic. — Read the rest The post Clearly, Elon...
Their leadership calls them Orca Team Six. Pods of killer whales are creeping up on merchant ships, disabling their rudders, and forcing captains to press pause mid voyage. Revenge is sweet. Maritime authorities on both sides of the Iberian Peninsula have watched a precise...
