  • I do not find the paragraph about cutting off Hernández’s clothes, taking pictures of him, then leaving him handcuffed and naked. Cut from the paper's coverage after initial publication?

  • He actually praised Allah, though of course only intending to insult Muslims.

  • US Treasury plans to put Trump's signature on new paper currency in first for sitting president

    Jump

  • Might tucker out after a few months, but I'll at least start by checking every bill at the bank and asking for exchanges. "Give me currency without that scumbag's signature, please."

  • People who don't necessarily want a public record of their every purchase.

  • Trump relied on unverified intelligence to blame Iran for deadly school strike

    Jump

  • The Guardian is a bit better than average, but this "exclusive" is the same media bullshit seen everywhere — the pretense that Trump is a serious politician with serious thoughts and a serious agenda. He's not, and the pretense is preposterous.

  • My dad died in 1993, but this really brought back the memories, thanks.

  • Man in Michigan synagogue attack lost family members in Israeli airstrike in Lebanon, official says

    Jump

  • When a foreign nation drops bombs that kill your family, the proper response is to write a letter to the editor, or perhaps boycott products from the nation that killed everyone you love. I simply can't understand why this guy didn't write that letter and announce his boycott. So illogical.

  • It's a chance to bring suffering and perhaps death to the weakest and most vulnerable, so there was little doubt how the Republican Supreme Court would rule.

  • Ars Technica Fires Reporter After AI Controversy Involving Fabricated Quotes

    Jump

  • The reporter fucked up, and it was published so Ars Technica fucked up too, but fuck-ups happen. The far bigger fuck-up is that Ars Technica hasn't covered this story with a fraction of the tenacity they'd show if the fuck-ups had happened at, say, TechCrunch or Gizmodo.
