Top Story

The Trump administration is reportedly negotiating with Oracle to take over TikTok. (Tech Crunch)

TikTok already operates out of Oracle's datacenters except for that parts where the CCP steals everyone's information so this has the advantage of not having to move anything, though with the marked disadvantage of, well, Oracle.

I'm not sure this would be worse than the current situation, at least.
Perplexity AI has submitted an updated version of its bid to merge with TikTok, with the US government holding 50% control. (Tech Crunch)

That sounds perfectly horrifying, thanks.
Mr Beast is officially bidding for TikTok. (MSN)

And now I'm dead.

Tech News

Yet another undersea cable has been severed in the Baltic Sea. (France24)

Nobody is mentioning Russia by name, but the suspected ship has been seizes, warships are patrolling the area, and Sweden has opened a criminal investigation.
Cory Doctorow gets everything wrong. Again. (Pluralistic)

Coupled with that he has a way with words that could only be compared a pigeons way with statuses.
Nvidia looks to be preparing a 96GB professional version of the RTX 5090. (Hot Hardware)

You will need to buy the card to calculate the price.

20 Good morning, everyone! Since I was on the road all day when Saturday's Pet Thread was up, I wanted to answer grammie's question here regarding the greyhound haul I did:

do you have a nearby dog track from where you get your rescues?

Right now, the only US track we get dogs from is in West Virginia. Given the declining number of tracks, we have expanded to take in dogs from Ireland.

And the east bank of the city has a boil-water advisory on. We have bottled spring water at our office, so no problem there, but when I brush my teeth at lunchtime I'll have to use that water as well.

90 'If you let your cat free roam outdoors with no supervision, you do not own a cat. You surrender ownership as soon as you let it out.'

How do you supervise a cat outside? A bullhorn?

I'm fairly certain I stole a cat that way. Or she stole me. Either way, she's now an indoor kitty.

Good morning to you. I'm actually a 'ronette which I think was the name of a girl singing group.

Hope she heals soon, and I don't know exactly what an iliopsoas is but it's a great word.

The iliopsoas are the muscles that go from the abdomen to the inside of the thighs. Diana tore one of them as a youngster and now that she's getting on to three, we finally got a reliable diagnosis. They're very slow to heal.

96 Hegseth was quickly confronted with a USAF kerfuffle, when they decided to eliminate training segments on Tuskegee Airmen and Women Pilots, and then use their own action to leak to the press what a racist misogynist Trump is. Hegseth restored the videos to training, and now has an investigative path to follow. RedState has more on this, including a closed command facebook group discussing how to "resist" Trump.

98 I appreciate that they are so lazy, "Check him for breathing" is a normal thing to say.

We got our dogs from a dogtrack down the road. Sad when it closed. Oh yes - we had to buy a bigger couch when they started coming along. And don't get me started on trying to grab a sliver of space on my bed.

99 To the President of Colombia:

Our President is bogged down with tons of shit left to him by our last President. He is in no mood to deal with your country or your citizens that are here illegally. So please just sit down, shut up, and take care of your own problems that we don't need.

Sincerely, MAGA (Oh...and have a nice day)
