cultural reviewer and dabbler in stylistic premonitions
did an LLM get involved in your dictionary somehow? (why are four of these six definitions very minor rephrasings of each other?)
Fwiw, the American Heritage Dictionary has only one definition; the other two are in wiktionary (which has citations for both).
you’re obviously prompting it wrong, and/or not using the latest models /s
Batista was the US-backed dictator who was defeated by the Cuban Revolution
unfortunately, like its predecessor (Nokia’s Maemo/Meego), Jolla’s SailfishOS has never been (and has never had plans to be) fully free/libre open source software.
many components of it are freely licensed, but not nearly enough to constitute an actual mobile operating system you can use.
via this post i see that this photo was apparently taken yesterday at LaGuardia airport.
From the Forbes article mentioned in the video, Meet The Florida Sugar Barons Worth $4 Billion And Getting Sweet Deals From Donald Trump:
ASR is now the world’s largest cane sugar refiner, and it’s entirely owned by Florida Crystals. For 26 years, the Sugarcane Growers Cooperative of Florida owned a minority stake, but the Fanjuls bought the co-op out in 2024 for an undisclosed amount.
Apart from Florida Crystals, the Fanjuls’ most high-profile business is the Dominican Republic’s agricultural and tourism conglomerate Central Romana. They own 35%, worth about $190 million, according to corporate records in Luxembourg. Central Romana is also the Dominican Republic’s largest sugar producer, which the Biden Administration banned from importing into the U.S. in 2022 amid allegations of forced labor on some of its sugar farms. At the time, the government’s investigation of Central Romana included accusations of 11 different indicators of forced labor, including abuse of vulnerability, isolation, withholding of wages, abusive working and living conditions and excessive overtime.
Minor correction: Forbes misread the report they link to; it actually says that, of the International Labour Organization’s 11 indicators of forced labor, CBP identified five of them in their review of Central Romana’s operations.
unsurprisingly the HN comments are full of people defending Apple and telling OP he’s wrong about each of his points 🤦
to all five of your questions: yes
yes, i linked to the wikipedia article where i got those figures from
The headline VW to shift from cars to missile defence in deal with Israel’s Iron Dome maker strongly implies that they are going make less cars as a result of their military business, but the article actually says this “shift” is at one of their car factories which they had planned to shut down next year.
The article also neglects to mention some relevant information about the VW Group such as its origins and who owns them today (although they are a publicly traded company, the Qatari sovereign wealth fund, the German state of Lower Saxony, and the Porsche family respectively own 10.4%, 11.8%, and 31.9% of the shares, and the Porsche family holds 53.3% the voting shares).
what happened next? (do the terms actually allow you to cancel it immediately for no cost, or is their $10-per-month-for-nothing offer an alternative to paying a cancellation fee?)
(well actually) you forgot Poland
Regarding TVs, WikiLeaks’ Vault 7 publication in 2017 included “Weeping Angel”, CIA malware for Samsung TVs which streams audio from them while they’re in “fake off” mode.

It’s good to see someone in this thread who knows what an IPv5 address looks like:
IPv5 addresses consist of four hextets a 16bit each. For the visual
representation, those grouping are used. The hextets might be
written in decimal, separated by dot '.' characters, or as
hexadecimal numbers, separated by colon ':'.
It’s long past time to start replacing our IPv4.1 deployments!
for one thing, you’re in a country where this once happened 🤦
Race is a social construct and in the eyes of your friend’s racist dad you are apparently not white (even if he might have classified you as white if he had only your appearance to go by and hadn’t seen your name).
Here are a few somewhat relevant wikipedia articles:
