Don't sleep on these first results from the world's largest universal basic income experiment ever. (23,000 cash recipients with 5,000 getting UBI for 12 years)

1. Entrepreneurship skyrocketed thanks to the UBI functioning as both startup capital and spending power for people to be customers at those businesses.

2. NO INFLATION!

Wtf? Google admits the Gemini AI demo hands-on video was staged: A video showcasing the capabilities of Google's artificial intelligence (AI) model which seemed too good to be true might just be that. This is how scams operate. Unbelievable.

@pluralistic beeper mini didn’t last long. Apple has pulled the plug on them.

Remains to be seen if Beeper can bring it back up and sustain a cat-and-mouse game with Apple to keep it up.

"The Rwanda Bill would order British judges and courts to ignore some sections of the UK Human Rights Act."

This is a Tory government completely out of control in its pursuit of performative cruetly against marginalised groups.

The Rwanda scheme must be grounded for good.

My biggest pet peeve is restaurants/gigs/events or venues of any kind which have a social media page instead of a website. I don't have fucking instagram, so I literally can't see your menu/lineup? Even if I had instagram, it's an entirely inaccessible format so would be fucking useless? These platforms are for promotion, not for hosting vital information.

I'm seeing this more and more.

For the love of all holy gaming, please stop doing that. Put it on the actual open web where people can read it properly.
