we also have a deep dive by @noahshachtman.bsky.social into the epic US-Russian prisoner swap that happened last summer: "Vladimir Putin brought home an assassin, spies, and another prized ally: the man behind one of the biggest insider trading cases of all time."
if you need a timeline cleanse: Fast-moving stars in the Milky Way indicate there could be a supermassive black hole in the neighboring Large Magellanic Cloud—something that has never been detected in a smaller galaxy.
It’s bad when a black hole is considered a timeline cleanse.
Perfect opportunity to ask ya’ll to report on Doge being embedded at NASA. Which is SpaceX having access to OUR space agency.

Am I the only one who sees a powerful cat in this photo?
and our latest today from @lhn.bsky.social: Cloud “container” defenses have inconsistencies that can give attackers too much access. A new company, Edera, is taking on that challenge and the problem of the male-dominated startup world.
what's the most pressing question you have today?
Why should anyone trust the federally backed banking system and the safety of our money in that system when apparently it could be seized by DOGE without recourse?
Am I getting fired today?
What are the odds of the asteroid scoring a hit, based on today's odds?
what happens if I choose to not pay my federal income taxes, as I don't want to pay in to this authoritarian/fascist playbook?
This.
Why are so many people complying with his stupid email, when the director told them not to? Also, there is no law saying we have to have Xhitter accounts, so why take any proclamation that asshole makes on there seriously?
I was wondering about tools to help with the impulse to doom scroll. I once looked into apps that can be downloaded to lock you out of certain apps, but the amount of permissions you need to give made me nervous
my brain is fried from doom scrolling so this probably makes no sense
Pros/cons of a national strike?
Does the judiciary have any power to force law enforcement agencies to implement their rulings?
Will Musk give any talk time to Trump at the cabinet meeting?
Is DOGE firing fed employees across the board or are they matched with ppl that donated, or are somehow affiliated democratic (by proxy, indicators or otherwise)? Can he suck up gov databases and feed this exclusive data into his LLM?
Why are agency directors allowing doge access instead of having them removed as trespassers? Compliance and collaboration seem to be the default. Where did all the Karens go?
When and how are we going to get them gone?
How can Musk fire workers for no cause?
How does DOGE have any authority to do anything at all
Oh, that's my question. How is he able do all this without any legitimisation. You never had agency like that, and how is it with your constitution and law?
Are they dead yet?
It's a daily question of mine but, "What now?"
When will the machines turn us into human batteries so we can peacefully live in the Matrix?
Does DOGE/EM have data from the agencies & departments they have accessed?
Do some men just want to watch the world burn? And are many of those men MAGA republicans?
📌
There are a number of things I would like to launch towards this potential supermassive black hole from my timeline.

So just in time for the election?
