X sues to block California election deepfake law ‘in conflict’ with First Amendment
  • The law sounds reasonable. I'd argue that it provides additional definition to defamation laws. Deep fakes are meant too fool people into thinking the victim made a statement that they did not. That almost seems like the definition of slander.

    How come US third parties never get elected to national level but at the local level they succeed?
  • The only real reason is lack of ranked choice voting. With the current system a choice is made that is either a win or a loss. This creates a binary system of Republicans or Democrats. Ranked choice allows for an automatic fall back. If you vote for a third-party candidate that you really like under ranked choice, this is not a protest vote. If your candidate doesn't win you provided a fall back to a larger party candidate.

  • Adobe's decision to eliminate perpetual licensing for its Elements software has stirred controversy among consumers
  • I've seen an old list of Adobe alternatives, but do you know of a recent one? I prim use Divinci Resolve over Premiere for video but have less familiarity with others. I find Gimp a bit hard to use. Mostly the controls don't feel natural for some reason.

  • China's New Hypersonic Passenger Plane Can Fly From London to New York in Under 2 Hours
  • The one where a part from another plane fell off and got ingested into the Concord's engine? It's hard to see that as Concord's fault, but there was significant loss of life and reputation. But that really shouldn't be characterized as a Concord failure.

  • North Carolina authorities arrest armed man after threats against FEMA workers
  • I helped people do sign ups for FEMA assistance in one of the impacted areas. Many were older and just needed help with the forms. Or didn't have Internet. Some just needed money for groceries, one lost both his job and apartment. All really need help and were already living on the edge. Many were retired and on a fixed income. Idiots spreading rumors hurt these people by delaying help.
