Exclusive: Prior to Iran attacks, CIA assessed Khamenei would be replaced by hardline IRGC elements if killed, sources say In the run-up to the U.S. and Israeli attacks on Saturday, the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency assessed that even if Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in the operation, he would likely be replaced by hardline figures from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), two sources briefed on the intelligence said.

Props to Anthropic for not caving into the autocratic desires of the Trump admin. Unfortunately I think this only clears the way for xAI to take their place, and I'm sure they will do whatever evil bidding they are asked...

Trump orders federal agencies to stop using Anthropic AI tech 'immediately' "The Leftwing nut jobs at Anthropic have made a DISASTROUS MISTAKE trying to STRONG-ARM the Department of War," Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.

Trump bans artificial intelligence company Anthropic from doing business with US Government because they refused to allow him to use their AI for mass domestic surveillance of Americans. What was Trump planning to do?! www.cnbc.com/2026/02/27/t...

The Pentagon broke off its partnership with an AI company because the AI company didn’t think it should create the conditions for the Terminator universe if I understand correctly

The ended Smiling Friends because it's too hard now to make people smile

anyone play go? kinda getting back into it but while i've been interested in the game for a long time now i still don't really know what i'm doing. i've been going through the online-go.com learn to play stuff, wondering if anyone knows any other good noob resource?

ok i didn't realize apparently i was jumping in the deep end by buying an esp32-c5, which is different from most other esp32s. couldn't use the seemingly standard TFT_eSPI library, but eventually found another that should work to run the display i got. more experiments incoming!

lol we're getting another 10 inches of snow tomorrow? jeeeeez louise

good plan

ICE Agents Keep Accidentally Shooting Themselves

Three ICE agents accidentally shot themselves in the leg during routine training exercises within two days last year.

‘I literally felt naked’: Angolan journalist Teixeira Cândido targeted with Predator spyware - Committee to Protect Journalists Angolan journalist and lawyer Teixeira Cândido wants to know who targeted him with spyware, and he wants justice. “First and foremost, we must seek to find out who the entities are that have acquired ...

More reckless abuse of mercenary spyware, in this case, Predator spyware in Angola.

Great work by @donncha.is & colleagues @amnesty.org

i'm enjoying a knight of the seven kingdoms but i can't help but kinda hate its core message of strength thru perseverance thru extreme trauma and suffering esp in this year. could we simply avoid a bit of the trauma and suffering instead?? i've had my fill.

mm no voice chat is a deal breaker at least for my gaming group, imo that's the best part of discord is how easy it is to swap between different voice chat rooms. oh well good to keep an eye on potential alternatives. thanks for your input!

thanks for the insight!!

matrix kinda sucks, no drop-in voice chats (but it does have channel voice calls). been using matrix for a while now but not much of a fan. found stoat the other day looking at potential alternatives, any thoughts in terms of UX from your usage yet?

sorry i thought you were OP, open to your thoughts if you've used stoat also 😅

about to jump into the job search again because i am tired of and frankly not very good at freelancing. not looking forward to it. i'm not really good at networking, and i don't have many friends who are in software dev, so sourcing new gigs has been difficult.

When making Opencode agents, I ran into an issue with Zed. I set the "color" parameter using theme-based values according to opencode's docs (ie primary, secondary, error, warning, etc). Zed does not like this! So I replaced them with hex color codes and its fine. @zed.dev

this ties into what i've been seeing. twitter, obvious, but also nearly every large public irc channel i'm in is 24/7 edgy boi hours. its fucking everywhere. so unfortunately they might be right.

How fucking inept is this DoJ that it took them this long to release anything, and the files they did release still had identifying information about victims? Absolutely ridiculous. Shows where they're priorities were when it came to redactions.

trying to decide what multicolor print i want to try first....so i can figure out what colors i need to get to start my filament collection :)

very surprised that all this stuff in the epstein files isn't actionable or anything the doj could investigate.................... seems pretty wild....................
