    I was given a hardback 2000AD anthology I guess for Christmas, way back when I was a kid. Can't remember which one it was exactly, but it did have a Rogue Trooper story in it with a character who had put his mind or something into a child's.

    Social media firms abandon fight against Australia law banning under-16 users

    TBH this needs to be global. Kids need to be able to be kids again, not victims of social media brain rot.

    With new agent mode for Excel and Word, Microsoft touts “vibe working”

    I've been thinking about this too, with my pre-schooler. Kind of wondering if it'd be possible in this day and age to try and recreate my own digital childhood with her; buy her a refurbed Amiga 500+ as a starting point or something... :D

    Research shows Google AI Overviews reduce website clicks by almost half

    I searched for Nitrogen a few weeks back, only to be told by an AI summary that it was the most abundant element in the universe...

    AI-generated code could be a disaster for the software supply chain. Here’s why.

    Montana’s Republican legislators fight back after successful youth climate lawsuit

    Sure - just so long as they include the full externality cost for non-green sources too. Let's quantify the cost of the cancers caused, the cost of extreme weather events, life expectancies reduced. The market - if it's allowed to function correctly and isn't hobbled by uninternalised...

    Should the US prioritize settling Mars?

    Kind of surprised by the reactions here. That there's any controversy to the view that we should of course go and settle other planets, to shape rocks devoid of life to fit our requirements... is incomprehensible to me.

    Italian interest in Starlink strikes at the heart of European space solidarity

    SpaceX is not secure or trustworthy. We in Europe should be doing everything to make Musk an irrelevancy, until he dies.

    Paramount drops new clip for Strange New Worlds at NYCC

    I really don't get why the SNW art guys didn't just use the design aesthetic from the TOS remaster for the Gorn ships.

    EU considers calculating X fines by including revenue from Musk’s other firms

    We need better tools to deal with malicious actors like Musk. Fines are a good starting point, but they need to be proportional to his hoarded wealth.

    Free Starlink Internet is coming to all of United’s airplanes

    Sucks to give Musk any more business.

    SpaceX says regulators will keep Starship grounded until at least November

    Dunno why you're being downvoted. At this point you kind of have to assume the worst from anything he's involved in.

    Although it’s not final, SpaceX just got good news from the FAA on Starbase

    Still can't be happy at any successes this company has while it's being run by Elon Musk. Needs to fail or be nationalised.

    Meta’s pay-for-privacy plan falls afoul of the law, EU regulators say

    Honestly, that's still a good outcome for those in the EU. The cost of the social externalities these companies have caused is too high.

    Don't worry, the posters have been moved outside of the environment.
