🎵It\u2019s been<\/em> 🎵\u2026 three weeks since my last roundup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Within that time, I turned 40 years old. I might write about that later, but I\u2019ve had trouble having a positive outlook lately. But rest assured, the roundup isn\u2019t going anywhere. I\u2019ve been trying to break out of habits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s get to a considerable sized (and free of charge) roundup!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God Damn America – by Jack Mirkinson – Discourse Blog<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alito\u2019s draft opinion is the work of a gleeful theocratic, woman-hating vandal, eager to begin the court\u2019s ultimate project: tearing down the broader civil rights framework that has been in place in this country for generations. He says<\/a> that Roe<\/em> should be scrapped because the right to an abortion is \u201cnot deeply rooted in the Nation\u2019s history and traditions\u201d\u2014a byzantine litmus test that would wipe out just about every modern civil rights protection you can think of, given the nature of American history.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Obviously1<\/a><\/sup> the focus now is that someone leaked this, and not the fact that this will affect so many people on such an invasive erasure of rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contra Chrome<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, Chrome has become a vital part of Google\u2019s core business, an advertising juggernaut that works by tracking users and their interests across the entire web. To better reflect the reality that \u201cGoogle\u2019s browser has become a threat to user privacy and the democratic process itself\u201d, comic artist and activist Leah Elliott has cheekily created an updated comic book in the style of the original. She calls it Contra Chrome<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Swarming drones autonomously navigate a dense forest (and chase a human) | TechCrunch<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I remember watching when drones were getting popular, and when they did that coordinated drone stunt during the PyeongChang 2018 Olympics<\/a>, and thinking how someday that this could drastically increase the chances of finding someone during a search and rescue operation. Well, it seems we’re moving toward that, albeit, with some scary possibilities with drones following people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m surprised Facebook is as high as it is for the 18-29 group. But I wonder if that’s like email, and how it’s almost necessary to talk to family via the worst website. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stare at the center of the animation for 30 seconds, then look away and around you.
