Is Peter Thiel’s Palantir the most evil company in the world …. along with all the other “tech-bro” $billionaire outfits?

Quite possibly!

      the phone is finally here... and it's a spray painted $150 chinese cell phone featuring an american flag with only 11 stripes that roughly 10,000¹ MAGAs paid $500 for.

      ¹ and co. claimed 600,000 orders but a data breach revealed there were only 10,000 orderers buying ~30,000 phones. the whole thing is just a scam to move money into the trump family's pockets. there was never supposed to be an actual phone; MAGAs who actually ordered the phone are just collateral damage in a operation not the intended audience.

1/ This year’s official @consensus2026 closing party by @CoinDesk was
a massive step backward. Hosting the flagship event at E11even — a strip
club — wasn't just inappropriate; it was incredibly low-brow for an
industry trying to grow up.

2/ Let’s be clear: I'm all for alcohol, music, and a good time. Hire a world-
class DJ. Throw a massive rave. Go to Club Space. But choosing a strip
club as the official venue for a global conference is a choice that reflects
poorly on all of us.

3/ Just because this happened in 2021 doesn't mean it should happen in
2026. Back then, Coinbase, FTX and Binance execs were there, but the
industry has evolved. We are supposed to be moving toward institutional
maturity, not leaning into "bro-culture" clichés.

                        Why The Linus Torvalds Is Irredeemably Corrupt
                        [quote] "The legal instrument protecting your rights as a user of Linux is less important than the commercial ecosystem built on top of it. And that commercial ecosystem as we have established is controlled by the same corporations paying a half a million dollars a year for board seats at the Linux Foundation. ... The message ... enforce the GPL, lose your friends ... violate it openly ... get a seat on the board ... The GPL is not dead but its enforcement mechanism has been systematically dismantled by the very organization that claims to steward it."
                        [synopsis]

                        Linux Foundation has squelched the voice of the lay contributors and now corporations control the decision-making process.

                        Now that your contributions to GPL'd free software have created mega-millionaires and billionaires ... those same rich fat cats that profited from your free code now want to keep you from sharing your own free code or profiting from it while they violate the software license to cash in. They promote ideology campaigns employing useful idiots and ideological parrots to insulate themselves from criticism and hold themselves above reproach from the people they are exploiting to build their tech empire. The Linux Foundation has joined the empire.

                        I have said before that a new alternative operating system is required if software freedom and privacy are to survive. Linux is not the resistance against the system. Linux is the system.

                          Lured from Malaysia, sold for $50K USDT in Sihanoukville

A Chinese karaoke worker was lured from Malaysia to Sihanoukville by another karaoke worker who promised her a job. She landed at the new airport, got picked up by car, and was held in a downtown condo while traffickers drained nearly 300,000 yuan from her Chinese bank accounts. Once the money ran out, the plan was to sell her on for $50,000 USDT.

She was rescued yesterday after gendarmes tracked her from a villa in Sangkat 2, to a condo in Sangkat 3, to Lon City borey in Bet Trang. Six Chinese nationals arrested. Two are women, who were used to recruit other karaoke workers into the same trap.

Inside the condo, she was drugged and sexually assaulted. The captors also pressured her to call her own friends with fake job offers. According to investigators, the only way to be released was to deliver a replacement.

Rep. Ansari says that Howard Lutnick is a “pathological liar” who is enabling a cover-up.

Ansari: After what we have seen so far in this transcribed interview, I feel very comfortable saying that Howard Lutnick is a pathological liar who is enabling the most egregious cover-up in American history.

In 2012, he took his family and his staff to Jeffrey Epstein’s island. I focused my questions today on how he could have done that if he and his wife were truly so uncomfortable—especially when, in 2008, we know that Jeffrey Epstein was accused and a sweetheart deal took place for soliciting a minor. Howard Lutnick tried to tell us in that room that he essentially didn’t know any of that.

I asked him, how did I, as a child at the time, see this all over the media about Jeffrey Epstein, and you—an adult who was this person’s neighbor and had engaged with him before—how could you possibly not have known? I mean, the level of the lies that are taking place inside that room, without video, is unbelievable.

                                          The practice has exposed the UK to an “acute risk” of corruption, transparency experts say, with the law woefully inadequate to guard against the multiple conflict of interests.

                                          The Nerve has discovered a “revolving door” that has led to dozens of highly experienced UK government officials, former ministers, intelligence service chiefs and members of the House of Lords taking up key roles in the controversial Silicon Valley surveillance tech company co-founded by Peter Thiel, the libertarian friend and ally of Donald Trump."

                                              There are growing suspicion (set out here some weeks ago & now gaining traction in the mainstream media) that people close to the Tangerine Tyrant are using insider knowledge to place bets on political actions/developments....

                                              Are are we surprised?.... of course not; the Court of the Tangerine Tyrant is only out for itself & is seeking to maximise the financial returns of the Tyrant's remaining time in the White House.
