Spock would have to be DM. As a player he'd be the worst rules lawyer ever.

I think the headline is misleading. He's not arguing that we should keep fossil fuels. He's saying we can't just switch to renewables and keep going on as we currently are. Which is exactly what environmentalists have been arguing for years.
I doubt it. His recent shows are Shrinking and Ted Lasso... Not exactly flops.
Unfortunately, AfD and Musk won't hesitate to paint this as an islamist attack. They'll just claim the X posts are fake if necessary.
It may even have been the attackers' goal.
I don't know if this is realistic. Considering making a game is a full time job.
The New Zealand Social Media Study did some analysis of fake news during the '20 and '23 election campaigns. They did a bit more in 2020, here are some of their results: https://www.wgtn.ac.nz/hppi/psir/psir-research/election/facebook-campaign-communication
I had actually been planning a proposal for this fund for next year (social science). I'd sat through seminars on how to write a good proposal, and no one mentioned funding getting cut was even a possibility. The universities were completely blindsided.
It's a decision that seems to be driven purely by ideology, and mostly comes from one of the junior coalition partners (Act). I know for a fact that their leader has been expressing discontent about some of the research being done that has been criticising him (I.e. showing how his party spreads misinformation).

OpenAI published a paper about GPT titled "Sparks of AGI".
I don't think they really believe it but it's good to bring in VC money
Mastodon is pretty different to its competitors. It looks similar to Twitter / Bluesky, but the way the social network functions is completely different.
It's designed to be anti-infuencer... One of the things I hate about most social media platforms is a few people get all the attention. There are a few reasons for this, but it's not really based on merit.
I think a lot of people joined Mastodon wanting a Twitter clone. It's obviously not and Bluesky is, so people moved there. The approach Mastodon takes is far from perfect, and may not work out in the long run. But it seems like it's worth at least trying something different.
This is a great move. Governance is extremely important for bigger OSS projects, and the "benevolent dictator" model has its limits.
