“It is a sign that people aren’t happy within the U.S. government, clearly. The shooting [of Good] was the last straw for many people,” Dominick Skinner, ICE list founder, told The Beast.

Haraltd is a Bluetooth daemon that provides a JSON-based RPC over the native OS’s Bluetooth stack. It currently only supports Bluetooth Classic, and runs on Windows and MacOS. Installation instructions are in the README.

The planets finally aligned for friends who spent two years trying to recreate an iconic movie scene.

I made this account because I cannot find the answer. I dont know if anyone will see this or respond either. My brain constantly talks to me, or more so im talking to myself. Its not once in awhile, but every minute. Everyday, it has not changed it has gotten worse. I either think of random things or negative things. Everytime I try to think positive, it switches to panic in my brain. This constant talk not only makes my head hurt but I cannot control my emotions half of the time. I also feel like my body is out of place as if im not in it. My body feels like it needs to move around but when I do, I cant. I feel as if Im frozen and uncomfortable even laying down. Everything seems difficult, I feel out of place and different from everybody. I keep researching but I cannot find the answer. The more deeper I go into my thoughts, the more I struggle to sleep and focus. I get deep thoughts on why I am in this world, why I am human, Why I exist. My brain spinning makes me want to exist less because of how tiring it is to feel like this everyday. I play a ton of video games and guitar because those seem to be the only two activities that makes my brain shut up for a short period. This is a very long type but I hope someone out here can help or give advice on what I should do.

Better treatment options have improved survival rates in the U.S., according to a report from the American Cancer Society.

Amber Bracken and news outlet The Narwhal allege violation of Charter rights

As someone who remembers Dilbert as one of the biggest players on the comics page of 1990s newspapers and loved the strips (even though as a kid I didn’t really appreciate a lot of the office humor), this hits hard on so many levels. Scott Adams, you could have stayed a great, but now your legacy is that of a MAGA loser with an AI obituary.

Production of the current generation Mercedes A-Class is moving from Germany to Hungary in order to improve manufacturing efficiency.

The vast majority of businesses based in the European Union have moved jobs abroad, with India being the most favoured destination outside the bloc.

Maybe the most important aspect of this story is the duration of the war relative to the modest amount of territory Russia has been able to seize, despite 80 years of technological advancements since the end of WW2. The online troll armies and absurd triumphal chest beating is increasingly stretched thin to cover what a colossal and historic disaster this war has been for Russia.

As the Iranian authorities impose a near-total communication blackout on a country convulsed by mass protests, videos and witness accounts slowly emerging suggest that the government is waging one of its deadliest crackdowns on unrest in more than a decade.

As President Trump threatens Iran, Venezuela, Mexico, Greenland and more, renowned historian Alfred McCoy says the United States is “an empire in decline,” following a predictable pattern of militarism abroad and political instability at home as it loses power and influence on the world stage. “American politics become increasingly contorted and irrational,” says McCoy. “I think the thing to do is to realize that we are an empire in decline, … and it will continue for another decade or two, until American power finally slips away.”

During the anti-ICE protest THP, despite orders to not escalate from MPD, charged protesters and started grabbing/cursing at them.

In the past few months the MetaBrainz team has been fighting a battle against unscrupulous AI companies ignoring common courtesies (such as robots.txt) and scraping the Internet in order to build up their AI models. Rather than downloading our dataset in one complete download, they insist on loading all of MusicBrainz one page at a time. This of course would take hundreds of years to complete and is utterly pointless. In doing so, they are overloading our servers and preventing legitimate users from accessing our site.

“General interest in AI PCs has been wavering for a while …”

The Wine Project, a compatibility layer that enables Linux and macOS users to run Windows applications, has officially released version 11.0. The headline change is the completion of the new WoW64 architecture, which is now fully supported and considered feature-complete.

ReactOS began 2026 with another “major step” towards Windows NT 6 compatibility with updating its MSVCRT implementation from Wine for the Microsoft C Runtime DLL library. That improved support for a number of Windows applications running on this open-source OS. ReactOS is taking another step-forward now with addressing a very annoying usability issue where up until now you may need to refresh the file manager for seeing folder changes.

Mexico has won a Guinness World Record for hosting the world’s largest exhibition of embroidery and textiles.

Saudi authorities executed at least 356 people in 2025, Human Right Watch (HRW) reported Tuesday.

“The what?”

Somalia has severed all agreements with the United Arab Emirates, annulling deals spanning key port operations, security cooperation and defence, citing “harmful actions” that undermine the country’s unity and sovereignty.

This feels like a pretty wild update. Buried Giant Games apparently includes Josh Yearsley who designed the soon to be released Root expansion, as well as Ted Caya who had left Leder separately some time previously. I really hope it is as amicable as they say and that both studios have good things ahead.

There. That’s out of the way. I recently installed Linux on my main desktop computer and work laptop, overwriting the Windows partition completely. Essentially, I deleted the primary operating system from the two computers I use the most, day in and day out, instead trusting all of my personal and work computing needs to the Open Source community. This has been a growing trend, and I hopped on the bandwagon, but for good reasons. Some of those reasons might pertain to you and convince you to finally make the jump as well. Here’s my experience.

During spring, when queen bumblebees first emerge from hibernation to start their nests, they work incredibly hard foraging for nectar to fuel their new colonies. But then, as soon as their first workers are born, they seem to slack off.

A bombshell new report from CBS News suggests that the Iranian Government has murdered between 12,000 and 20,000 protesters since the ongoing, national revolt against it began.

The account is in fact authentic:

For years, countries have told the United Nations how much methane they emit using a kind of bottom-up bookkeeping: Count the cows and oil barrels, estimate the volume of trash, and multiply by standard emission factors. Those ledgers can miss the mark, suggest measurements from aircraft and satellites. But the tools to translate that data into national emissions estimates have largely remained the domain of specialists. A team at Harvard is changing that. In a recent Nature Communications paper, the researchers describe Integrated Methane Inversion (IMI), an open-access system designed to let governments, researchers and civil society independently evaluate national methane claims against what satellites detect in the atmosphere, year after year.
