FASCINATING:
ロシアがウクライナのデータセンターを相次いで攻撃
↓
ゼレンスキー大統領が報復を宣言。Yandexのデータセンターを相次いで攻撃

サービスが一部停止。経済制裁により新たなGPUの入手難しく、復旧は絶望的
↓
この攻撃によりなぜかロシアのbotの半分が活動しなくなり、Xが少し平和になる←イマココ https://t.co/ZxH7cgEbk1— 篠原 修司 (@digimaga) October 10, 2026
And here’s X’s auto-generated translation, which for whatever reason doesn’t embed:
Russia successively attacks Ukraine’s data centers
↓
President Zelensky declares retaliation. Successively attacks Yandex’s data centers
↓
Services partially shut down. Due to economic sanctions, acquiring new GPUs is difficult, and recovery seems hopeless
↓
For some reason, this attack causes half of Russia’s bots to stop functioning, making X a bit more peaceful←NOW HERE
Did anyone have “Russian drone strike sets off a small chain of events resulting in cleaner X timelines” on their 2026 bingo card?

FLY THE UNFRIENDLY SKIES: EgyptAir pilot posts video of Israeli plane, with audio saying ‘eye for eye, tooth for tooth, violence for violence.’ “Osama Mansour should be grounded immediately, but in America itself, pro-jihad pilot Ibrahim Mosallam is still flying for United Airlines. So why should anyone expect EgyptAir to do anything about Osama Mansour?”
WHAT DID Y’ALL THINK GLOBALIZE THE INTIFADA MEANT? VIBES? PAPERS? ESSAYS? LOSERS.

Classical reference in the headline.
DECLINE IS A CHOICE: Britain is Heading Towards Blackouts. “No large grid anywhere has yet run mostly on wind, solar and batteries with so little spinning plant behind it. NESO’s Chief Executive calls its stability programme ‘world-first’, and means it as praise. Britain is running a colossal experiment on a system that cannot be allowed to fail.”
Fascinating look at what makes grids work, and why Net Zero doesn’t.

#JOURNALISM:
Editors need to stop assigning political reporters to do finance and economic stories.

WHEN THE WITCH HUNT IS CONDUCTED BY WITCHES:
"Never give up": A sex investigation found a male professor innocent, so the college just kept redoing it with new investigators as activists fished for a different result. A different result never came, but the college paid the accusers $10M anyway.https://t.co/ToRnle3p2O

RISE OF THE MACHINES: Grok Wrote Me An Essay. And it’s pretty damn good. “The idea and thesis is mine, the writing is Grok’s. It is about 80% something I would have written myself. Compare it to things I wrote 10 years ago, it sounds quite similar.”
The machines get better all the time. Human capabilities stay about the same.
