"It is 1637 days until China takes the Moon... They will claim the prime real estate around the polar craters, defend them as the sovereign territory of a nuclear-armed state, and place a permanent choke hold on humanity’s future." https://caseyhandmer.wordpress.com/2025/06/12/nasa-is-worth-saving/

Loved all the Culture series, but Feersum Endjinn stood out for me as the most original and challenging.

Well, that was a nice surprise. Poking around in the settings for Apple Music app on my android phone and spotted this. Clicked it and transferred all my Spotify tracks and playlists over in minutes. And it was free too. Sweet!

Questioning our axioms is really hard work so we mostly avoid doing it. Much easier to just follow the crowd.

I get excited by a new technology and its potential (crypto, AI, etc), but then I think: 'Ruh-roh! This is going to be abused and used against me — shit!'

"TTP’s investigation found that one in five of the top 100 free virtual private networks in the U.S. App Store during 2024 were surreptitiously owned by Chinese companies, which are obliged to hand over their users’ browsing data to the Chinese government under the country’s national security laws. Several of the apps traced back to Qihoo 360, a firm declared by the Defense Department to be a “Chinese Military Company."" https://www.techtransparencyproject.org/articles/apple-offers-apps-with-ties-to-chinese-military
