Rule One Of Diggy Diggy Hole Edition
Top Story
- In a clear sign of the End Times, the UN and the European Court of Human Rights have both affirmed that forcing companies to create encryption back doors to enable governments to spy on their civilian populations is a violation of human rights. (Ars Technica)

Tech News
- Early adopters of Apple's Vision Pro AR headset are lining up to return their $3500 toys before the 14 day trial period expires. (The Verge)
Who the hell has time for that? I'm lucky if I even get the box out of the front hall in the first 14 days.
- The new Asus Zenbook 14 has 32GB of RAM. (Tom's Hardware)
And one of those 2880x1800 OLED displays which are very nice (the HP laptop I'm using right now has the same screen).
This one also has Intel's new Core Ultra 7 155H, which brings Intel more or less up to date with AMD's chips from last year.

- Hezbollah had blue checkmarks on Twitter. (Ars Technica)
Which means that Hezbollah paid for them.
Ars Technica runs this as though it were Watergate multiplied by the Pentagon Papers, when it doesn't even amount to a nothingburger.
Meanwhile, the former Twitter regime explicitly granted blue checkmarks to pro-genocide terrorist mouthpieces for years, and Ars didn't raise a peep.

Yes, and for no reason other than Musk runs X. They would've been 1000% fine with it under the old, totalitarian, owners.

Woah! Slow down there! Whether or not the Jews are the good guys or bad guys depends a lot on who else is involved.
