Lounge Boyz kunne bare innført tromme for 2 år siden. Sånn det funker på fotballtribuner. Helt utrolig at de har vært så tålmodige og respektfull (faktisk). Ungdommen i dag! 😄

Newcastle pubs ban AI art from breweries to protect local creatives As two pubs in Newcastle ban AI art, artists discuss the impact it can have on creatives.

"If I was to use ChatGPT for my designs rather than our designer Sean, that's taking money out of the local area into the hands of a multibillionaire ... removing value from the local community and local artists [and] into the hands of some of the richest people in the world."

Uavhengig av om du er for eller mot tromme, tror jeg vi alle kan være helt enige at man ikke skal ødelegge stemningen på en historisk kamp for brann. Jeg vil ikke ha tromme på stadion, men vil heller ikke ha furtete 50-åringer som ødelegger like mye som en tromme

screenshot of text from Adam Serwer in The Atlantic: "The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they're the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive - because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about "Western civilization," while armed brutes try to tear it down by force."

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

Here's a regular white guy (literally "Chad") not a protester. because, "It seemed pointless, or just a way for people to expiate their sense of guilt." Chad witnessed something shattering. And, that all changed in a moment.

Excellent article!

Feigheten/inkompetansen fra NRK er ikke en del av samfunnsoppdraget. Tvert imot. Som sagt mange ganger: NRK viser en forbausende mangel på evne til å håndtere Trump og samtiden. Enorme ressurser til disposisjon, men blant de dårligste i klassen. Falsk balanse på speed.

For å følge med det som skjer i Minnesota, bruk MPR eller Star Tribune. Begge er på bakken og pålitelige.

There are tons of smart people working at both TV2 and VG.

I imagine a lot of them are embarrassed most days when they visit their own homepage?

One thing that really surprised me when I moved to Norway was how much of the media used clickbait, misleading, or purposefully obscure headlines — even organizations doing serious reporting.

It’s always struck me as needlessly unprofessional, but guess it comes from tabloid culture?

There are hundreds of people (maybe more?) in this photo. Not only is this not the main vigil, the main vigil is only a few blocks away. There will be tens of thousands of people in Minneapolis lighting a candle for our neighbor tonight.

According to Minnesota police, Pretti had no criminal history beyond traffic violations, he worked with critically ill veterans, and he was legally carrying a gun in his belt while filming ICE agents with his cell phone. Video from the scene shows Pretti trying to help a woman who had been shoved by one of the agents, before six or seven agents pile on top of him, pepper spray and beat him while he’s restrained on the ground, remove the gun from his holster, and then shoot him several times in the chest until he’s dead. He never reaches for the gun or threatens the agents in any way; his hands are empty, he’s disarmed and lying helpless on the ground before they start spraying bullets into his body. They could have just arrested him, even though he hadn’t done a single illegal thing—but they killed him because they felt like it.

Walz: "We sill investigate this. We will not be stonewalled ... this will end when enough American say this will end. Do I have any confidence that Donald Trump will do the right thing? No ... quit referring to these people as law enforcement. They are not law enforcement."

Walz: "It's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of our state, and today that campaigned claimed another life. I've seen the video from several angles and it's sickening. But I have a strong statement here for our federal govt: Minnesota's justice system will have the last word."

This has to stop! MINIMUM demands at this point:
- ICE out of Minnesota now
- arrest and charge the shooters, those associated
- no more funding for ICE, associated depts
- abolish ICE, reallocate funding to real needs
- shut down the government to do so, halt tax payments to do so
