I just love how I disabled automatic updates on macOS, but it downloaded and installed the new Golden Gate without my permission and now my external monitor doesn't work anymore. Great stuff, @Apple
Community note to the rescue. Would have called it fake otherwise.
BREAKING NEWS🚨: Iran shoots down an F-15 with a man on a flying carpet 😱😱
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The aircraft is an F-35, not an F-15.

☎️ Nederland zit vol, het antwoord van de politie wanneer een vluchteling en bekende van de politie iemand probeert aan te vallen….
Oké, thanks @KPN. Ik zal op _______ tussen 7:00 en 17:30 rekening houden met evt. werkzaamheden.
It’s official. Society is beyond repairing.
Alter Schwede!
Das ist absolut ungeheuerlich und zieht einem beim Lesen wirklich den Boden unter den Füßen weg. Jetzt liegt der offizielle Text von #AmnestUnternationalUK vor, und er bestätigt die schlimmsten Befürchtungen im Detail.
Was die dort fordern, ist nichts anderes als das Ende der freien Berichterstattung über Fehlverhalten und Korruption, perfekt verpackt in eine rührselige Opferschutz-Geschichte. Das ist #Zensur in Reinform.
In dem Text wird Prof #Arday – der nachweislich Arbeiten plagiiert und Interviews erfunden hat – als ein Opfer einer „brutalen, rassistischen Hexenjagd“ dargestellt. Die Tatsache, dass #Journalisten u ältere Professoren schlicht jahrelange, wissenschaftliche Hochstapelei aufgedeckt haben, wird von Amnesty als „Dehumanisierung“, „Grausamkeit“ und „digitales Mobbing“ umgedeutet. Der Betrug wird komplett ignoriert, um das reine Opfer-Narrativ zu schützen.
Amnesty fordert hier ganz offiziell die Einführung von „#ArdaysLaw“. Sie verlangen „durchsetzbare Schutzmaßnahmen“ gegen das, was sie „unverhältnismäßiges Eindringen der Medien“ nennen.
Das ist der gesetzliche Maulkorb für jeden investigativen Journalisten und jeden Blogger. Wenn dieses Gesetz kommt, können mächtige Personen, die beim Betrügen oder bei Korruption erwischt werden, jede kritische Berichterstattung im Keim ersticken lassen, indem sie behaupten, die Anzahl der Artikel verletze ihre „Dignity“ Würde und sei „Cruelty“.
Sie unterstützen in dem Brief auch die linke Organisation
#GoodLawProject, die den britischen PM auffordert, eine staatliche Untersuchung gegen die Presse einzuleiten. Das ist die pure Methode autoritärer Staaten. Die Presse soll dafür bestraft und kontrolliert werden, dass sie die Wahrheit über einen geschützten Günstling des Systems ans Licht gebracht hat.

Dear Muslims: My family and I have decided to move from the US to a Muslim country. We haven't picked which one yet—we're still comparing which one offers the best benefits package.
All my neighbors want to come too. And my neighbors' neighbors. And all their friends. And their friends' friends. Millions of us will show up with suitcases and a sense of entitlement.
As a large Christian community, we'll need a few small changes: Please start building churches immediately. Real churches, with nice loud bells, the kind that can be heard from the town square.
We'll also need for everyone to celebrate Christmas, and to close certain streets once a year for our processions. We may want to gather to pray to our Almighty God on your streets, in your parks, or on the lawns of your mosques.
We'll be an oppressed minority, so you'll have to be understanding and adapt to our way of life. Every supermarket must stock real pork, ham, chorizo, and bacon. And we're bringing all our dogs, so you'll need dog parks, and you'll have to smile tolerate them we walk them in front of your mosques. We want our women to be able to safely go out alone and wear shorts and tank tops. And when the weather's nice, we men like to go shirtless. We also want to drink alcohol, dance, and place an occasional bet at the horse races.
While we're at it, your religious holidays are a bit too much; they could offend the Christian community, so we'd appreciate it if you'd discreetly eliminate them. Thanks.
In schools and workplaces, our children and employees must be able to wear large crucifixes, say prayers, eat ham sandwiches in the cafeteria, and learn Christian principles without anyone getting criticized. We also demand chapels or Christian prayer rooms in every building, plus translators, because we have no intention of learning Arabic.
If any of this is rejected, please send a list of police station addresses so we can report you for discrimination, Christianophobia, racism, and anything we don't like.
One more thing: if my kids protest or burn your flag for any reason, please be understanding. I'll be sure to give them a very serious scolding.
Finally, we all want generous benefits, free housing, phones, free food, and pocket money while we "integrate" over the next three generations. Working is optional, obviously. Be patient with us, you'll get used to it.
We thank you in advance for your tolerance and compassion. After all, diversity is our strength!
Sincerely,
A Very Reasonable Christian
Tech companies and services that do not offer decent contact options for support are an automatic red flag.
Please guys, @BrumPolice has asked everyone to stop sharing this video. Let’s just honor their request. Thanks.
Dilan Yeşilgöz’ TikTok-video over de veiligheid van de straten in Tokio is misschien wel het meest ironische wat ik vandaag heb gezien.
Americans can’t comprehend you can live in Amsterdam, take a 5-6 flight to Athens, cross 7 borders of countries that speak 7 different languages and upon arrival you don’t need to do anything about your phone. No extra charge for services.
Europeans can’t comprehend that you can live in nyc, take a 5-6 hours flight to San Francisco and you’re in the same country and don’t need to do anything about your phone. No extra charge for service.
In Europe you drive 10 min from Austria to Germany to buy cheaper groceries and you have to avoid using your phone because you’ll get extra charges as it’s another country and another cell provider.
That’s why euros use WhatsApp.
Most communications in the U.S. even far away in another state, don’t cost you more.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
There are no additional charges to text, call or use internet when you cross the border to another EU country.
