Transhumanism, boiled down to its bones, is pure eugenics. It calls itself “H+,” for more or better than human. Which, of course, is what eugenics is all about.Alarmingly, transhumanist values are being embraced at the highest strata of society, including in Big Tech, in universities, and among the Davos crowd of globalist would-be technocrats. That being so, it is worth listening in to what they are saying under the theory that forewarned is forearmed.Israeli philosophy professor Yuval Harari is one of the movement’s chief. He believes that AI/human hybrids are inevitably going to take over — and that those of...

@marklevinshow Thanks to new ownership, I’ve decided to come back! 😊

@SadiqKhan Free speech cannot mean a free pass for hatred. We must not forget the impacts of online hate speech, which fans the flames of prejudice and leads to appalling and tragic real-world violence. Social media companies must do more, not less, to protect their communities.

what3words can help. It’s a free app that lets you pinpoint your location using a combination of three unique words. “We’ve divided the world up into 57 trillion 10 foot by 10-foot squares and then we’ve allocated each one of those squares a unique 3 word identifier,” said Giles Rhys Jones, Chief Marketing Officer for what3words. Because the system is so precise, instead of a broad street address, you could direct someone to the exact entrance to a large building, or the precise place you’re tailgating in a giant stadium parking lot. what3words’ iOS and Android apps work offline, without...

Several cities in Italy, including Rome and Bologna, will enact a digital plan this fall that rewards its citizen’s behaviors that comply with the UN 2030 Agenda.The cities are doing this by launching an app called “Smart Citizen Wallet.” Citizens who separate their garbage for recycling, use public transportation, or behave in ways that comply with the climate change agenda will be rewarded with discounts through the app.Some of the more worrying items on the UN 2030 agenda include increasing taxation, encouraging open border migration, and empowering the IMF to access personal financial information.Critics of the technology warn of the...

Joined Truth Social this morning and it was immediate. No wait list. I urge Facebook and Twitter users to move over. Don’t forget the past few years you are being monitored and key words you use on Facebook and Twitter alert they’re “full time sensors to remove your posts or your membership. This is what we’ve waited for so long.

Dozens of New York City public school teachers will be placed on unpaid leave starting Monday for allegedly using a fake Covid-19 vaccine card.As the Gateway Pundit previously reported, New York City Mayor Eric Adams fired 1,430 city employees who refused to receive the experimental Covid-19 shot.

In the video titled “I Crashed My Plane,” Jacob can be seen diving out of the civilian aircraft and popping his parachute. He claims in the video the airplane malfunctioned while it was flying over the Los Padres National Forest in California. The video was reportedly met with some skepticism, with some believing the crash was staged. The FAA agreed it seemed "odd" Jacob was wearing a parachute at the time of the crash, the NYT reported. Furthermore, according to the FAA's letter, authorities took note that Jacob didn't make an attempt to contact air traffic control, and also didn't...

Cuprous oxide crystal. (University of St Andrews) One of the ways we can fully realize the potential of quantum computers is by basing them on both light and matter – this way, information can be stored and processed, but also travel at the speed of light. Scientists have just taken a step closer to this goal, by successfully producing the largest hybrid particles of light and matter ever created. These quasiparticles, known as Rydberg polaritons, were made with the help of a piece of stone containing cuprous oxide (Cu2O) crystals from an ancient deposit in Namibia, one of the few...

That should keep the criminals offline for, well, weeks probably Embedded links are in the original article. Microsoft has announced a months-long effort to take control of 65 domains that the ZLoader criminal botnet gang has been using to spread the remote-control malware and orchestrate infected machines. The tech giant's Digital Crimes Unit obtained a court order from a US federal judge in Georgia to take down the domains, which are now directed to a Microsoft-controlled sinkhole so they can't be used by the malware's masterminds to communicate with their botnet of commandeered Windows computers. From what we can tell...

With many people working remotely, everybody should by now know how to behave when in a Zoom or Microsoft Teams meeting. Your camera picks up every move even when you think no one is watching, and your microphone can catch the faintest of sounds. Most people assume that muting their computer’s microphone gives them total privacy. That should be the case, but it’s not.Read on to find out how your microphone is sneakily still listening to everything you say.Here’s the backstoryResearchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison discovered that your device’s microphone continues to listen even after hitting the mute switch.While...

A non-fungible token (NFT) of the first tweet made by former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey originally bought for $2.9 million has reportedly failed to hold its value, with a recent top bid for the NFT reaching just $6,800. That represents a drop in value of approximately 99.8 percent based on the original purchase price. The Guardian reports that an NFT of former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey’s first tweet was sold in March 2021 for $2.9 million, bought by crypto entrepreneur Sina Estavi. The purchase made headlines at the time, with many shocked at the purchasing price, but Estavi seemed confident...

I've used pretty much every desktop out there, and the Linux desktop is still the best of the best. I've been working with desktop computers since CP/M-80 was the operating system of the day. Since then, I've used MS-DOS, Windows, OS/2, AmigaOS, System 7, macOS, Xenix, SCO OpenDesktop, and more versions of Linux than you can shake a stick at. Even today, I have Windows 10 and 11 and macOS running on test boxes. But what I run on my production PCs and laptops is Linux. Here's why.First, long before there were PCs, I was running Unix on minicomputers. My...
