❗️Никакого геноцида в Газе нет, считает Макрон

Президент Франции заявил, что страна не считает происходящее в секторе Газа геноцидом:

Dark patterns killed my wife’s Windows 11 installation

Last night, my wife looks up from her computer, troubled. She tells me she can't log into her computer running Windows 11, as every time she enters the PIN code to her account, the login screen throws up a cryptic error: "Your credentials could not be verified".

🇪🇺YES: Germany is not supporting the EU's #ChatControl bill as proposed!
The blocking minority needed to stop this illegal mass surveillance plan seems secured (for now). ✅

Opposition now also from LU🇱🇺 & SK🇸🇰!

A map of Europe titled "Help Stop #ChatControl!" shows countries color-coded by their government's stance on Chat Control in 2025. The legend indicates: green for "Not in favour," blue for "Undecided/Unclear," and red for "In favour." Countries in favour (red) are: Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Denmark, France, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Portugal, and Spain. Countries not in favour (green) are: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Finland, Germany, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland and Slovakia. Countries undecided or unclear (blue) are: Estonia, Greece, Slovenia, Romania, and Sweden (in favour, but subject to approval by Parliament). The map includes the text "Is your government opposing it yet?" and a call to action at the bottom: "Act now! www.chatcontrol.eu".

For the first time since September of 2019, FX Radio lives again!

What is FX Radio?

Basically, it's a stream with a stack of three media players shuffling through a huge collection of royalty free sound effects, music, and sometimes other odd things.

Essentially, it's audible streaming chaos, and a possible drug substitution if you are so inclined.

There are still some things to be tweaked, so it may randomly disappear from time to time, but we here at NoiseBox HQ are mostly happy with how it's working so far, streaming live from a computer under @BorrisInABox's mom's desk, and she has no idea it's there.

More features will be added in the coming days, hopefully.

There is no website or anything fun like that, just a stream URL.

stream.borris.me:8888/fx

Update: Borris's mom now knows that the box is under her desk, but not that it streams FX Radio.
