Kyiv Independent - Russia launched what seems to be its largest missile and drone attack against multiple Ukrainian cities overnight with the far-western city of Lutsk coming under the heaviest attack of the war. kyivindependent.com/7-9-attack…
Russia launched another mass missile and drone attack overnight on July 9, targeting Ukrainian cities, including in the country's far-west regions located hundreds of kilometers from the front line.
Update: Explosions occurred in Kyiv in the early hours of Thursday as Russia targeted the capital with drones, according to Kyiv Independent journalists on the ground. Ukraine's Air Force warned that Russia had launched large numbers of Shahed-type drones across the country.
In 1849, a little over 175 years ago, Edgar Allan Poe was found dead in a Baltimore gutter under mysterious circumstances very likely related to violent election fraud. It was an ignominious end to a life marked by hardship, alcoholism, and loss.
I enjoyed this #TEDTalk by Hannah Gadsby. I've enjoyed her Netflix series #Nanette & #Douglas so wasn't too surprised that her "Three ideas. Three contradictions. Or not." was something I would enjoy. I do love her exploration with her own #neurodiversity and how she is able to connect. Thanks again for connecting us with your stories.

This Airline Was Just Named the No. 1 Domestic Airline in the U.S. for 2025—and Travelers Call It 'Almost Like Flying Private' "...As one T+L reader explained, flying JSX is “almost like flying private. Friendly staff, easy check-in, help with boarding, luggage.” When you fly with JSX, you limit your time at the airport, checking in just 20 minutes before takeoff on most flights and walking through “frictionless” TSA-approved security. On board, each guest is treated to business-class amenities and free Starlink Wi-Fi...." yahoo.com/lifestyle/articles/a…
I just published my latest blog post. For anyone interested in MIDI or obscure bits of tech history, this is definitely worth a read. datajake.blogspot.com/2025/07/…
Cracking #DS9 episode tonight. For the Uniform. acting is superb as always. Another great submarine feel to the defiant work, with the Les Mis stuff really shining through. Such amazing television. I saw it all with my granddad back in the 90's, yet it's still hugely impactful nearly 30 years on.
I love that episode, one of my favorites from DS9. I know there was controversy about Sisko's actions but I liked the bit of moral uncertainty and thought it was consistent with his arc through the show.
In a recent CNN report, skepticism surrounds the Trump Organization’s claim that its new “T1” smartphone is “Made in the USA.”
Experts, including Todd Weaver, CEO of Purism, challenged the claim, citing striking similarities between the T1 and a low-cost Chinese phone, the Revvl 7 Pro 5G, made by Wingtech, a Chinese manufacturer.
Weaver emphasized the logistical and technical difficulty of building a phone in the U.S.
Purism makes premium phones, laptops, mini PCs and servers running free software on PureOS. Purism products respect people's privacy and freedom while protecting their security.
A little background Direct from its website: Galene (or Galène) is a videoconference server (an “SFU”) that is easy to deploy and that requires very moderate server resources.
Soming up NFB national convention in a nutshell! This was an absolute disaster, and for thos who didn't go, your money is saved. See my last post, with a tiktok link, telling the story from a sighted person's perspective. Now. I know, i will get hate for this, however, in my opinion, NFB puts this on themselves, for not vetting where they hold there conventions! Wish i had the money to attend ACB instead! As it seems that everyone's coverage is possitive, compared to this mess i just experienced today!

Mince, je ne suis pas anarchiste moi (malgré le fait que, à mon avis, l'Ukraine est l'un d'un tout petit nombre de pays où cela pourrait fonctionner), mais… cette sincérité des Français qui chantent sur l'historie de l'Ukraine… j'ai failli en pleurer. Gloire à l'Ukraine, vive la France ! On a beaucoup, vraiment beaucoup de similarités culturelles, c'est pourquoi je me sens déjà chez moi ici. ❤️

McDonald's uses an AI chatbot called "Olivia" for hiring. A pair of hackers found they could access every conversation job applicants had with it—including all the personal info they shared—by exploiting security vulnerabilities as basic as using the password "123456".

This one Florida crew I was on had a rotating cast of 19yo weed & Xbox kids who'd been caught on minor drug charges.
They were harmless. And also, clumsy af. Big kids who had no idea where their feet were. They kept stepping on the blueberry transplants we'd just planted.
Another crew was a bunch of minors who were working as "community service" for juvie.
They all smoked, bc juvie. Tobacco is packed with plant viruses that are super contagious; can be spread just by touch. So "don't smoke in the fields" is a key farm rule.
🌩️ Thunderbird 140 "Eclipse" is here with great improvements!
The open-source email client gets enhanced encryption, dark message mode, native OS notifications, and more! The privacy-focused alternatives keep getting better! ⚡

Our latest Thunderbird Monthly Development Digest is out! We have news about:
* The latest ESR, 140.0 "Eclipse" * Details about new Exchange Support features * Updates on Account Hub and the Global Message Database * Features and Fixes
It's not quite clear, and perhaps some clarification would be nice, but is Thunderbird going to support Microsoft 365/Office 365 (Cloud, Online...however you want to call it) natively down the line?
Thanks for the feedback! We currently support Outlook, which is part of 365. But we will be adding other aspects of Exchange Web Services support (such as calendar and address book) over the coming year. You can learn more at this wiki page! wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:E…
@padraig All caveats aside, there are some major gotchas by uptaking 140esr if you are currently an Exchange user on 128. The most significant of these is that *TbSync is no longer available for 140!*
TbSync has far superior coverage for Calendar and Contact support compared to OWL, and experimental native EWS is currently mail only. If you need contacts (esp multiple subfolders!) and calendars (esp shared calendars) then DO NOT upgrade from 128 for the foreseeable future.
🧵 1/5 @padraig @thunderbird Took a little searching but I am working again! Yay. The complexity is that which setup to use with Exchange can be legacy (POP3, IMAP+SMTP, EAS, EWS/OWA) or current Graph API. Thunderbird 140 supports all of the legacy API but not yet Graph API.
@btaroli We're so glad you got this solved! We know there will be a bit more complexity until address book and calendar are supported, and feedback like this can help us work on support articles. And we're glad you found the solution for TbSync while the developer works on updating it (and helps other developers update their apps too!)
Someone did a writeup of a bunch of "AI-powered" startups attending a pitch competition, and it:
a ) is fucking hilarious b ) involves one of the startups accidentally screen-sharing that their patentable technology appears to just be forked from an academic's work with no credit 3) further includes a radiology company admitting they haven't consulted any radiologists lmao

We tried out the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 and the Watch 8 Classic smartwatches. They look great, feel comfortable, and offer new AI features, but are more expensive than previous-gen models. pcmag.com/news/first-look-sams…
