    You are probably talking about Kahn. The international Criminal Court is not part of the UN. It is distinct from the International Court of Justice. As of October 2024, there are 1…

    Ah wow, that must be the most expensive mouse pointer ever. I wonder if it can also click links. I just tell AI to "click this" and it will figure out what is under the pointer, qu…

    Sophos was the latest scandal. Though, it's unclear to me to which degree their antivirus tools helped to install the malware. Maybe it was just the target selection from telemetry…
