Saturday [15 till close of play]

(1530)

23. This is from Andy’s comment below the post

In the FT op-ed, they wrote: “There is no question that the international world order – the balanced system that has led to relative peace and stability and delivered rising living standards, opportunities and prosperity – is under threat in a way we haven’t seen since the Cold War.”

22. This is as close to a Steve-like drop as I can get

… at 800.

21. Deliberate misinterpretation of truth yet again

This time, the Toronto Sun … “caught on camera” is the misrepresentation. A pediatrician gives a press conference … so in which possible way is that “caught on”? The gambit is to make it seem she’s done something wrong, whereas the diametric opposite is the truth … just listen to her. Fakery.

20. IYE gets complicated at 800

… something about “Stereomicroscopically” …

19. Figen again

18. Just two more

15. Vox and copyright

HERE

“The Internet Archive has lost its appeal in the copyright case against Hachette and three other publishers. The Second Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the previous decision, from March 2023, that the Internet Archive’s Open Library program qualifies as copyright infringement. Hachette, HarperCollins, Penguin Random House, and Wiley initially filed a lawsuit against the popular nonprofit organization in 2020.”

  1. Top spooks from the USA and GB have a warning for us. A snippet from the BBBC article.

    In the FT op-ed, they wrote: “There is no question that the international world order – the balanced system that has led to relative peace and stability and delivered rising living standards, opportunities and prosperity – is under threat in a way we haven’t seen since the Cold War.”

    Nowhere does it say that a threat to the world order might be a good thing. Relative peace? Ask those who have been bombed, invaded and enjoyed imposed democracy. Rising living standards? For some maybe, not here matey.
