[l] Not the Onion:

The guy who used Midjourney to create an award-winning piece of AI art demands copyright protections.

Moment, Sekunde, nur dass ihr das richtig versteht. Der verlangt nicht Copyrightschutz für die Künstler, deren Werke die "KI" gestohlen hat, um "sein" "Werk" zu generieren. Nein. Er will, dass seine Kunsthehlerei unter Copyright fällt.

Not from The Onion: US Attorney General Merrick #Garland announces that the Department of Justice has filed criminal indictments against six senior Hamas officials, including Yahya Sinwar, for "conspiring to kill American citizens" and "using weapons of mass destruction" following the death of six hostages in the #Gaza Strip, one of whom was an American dual citizen.

This pig can't go after #Trump and domestic terrorists who attempted a coup in the US, but repeating the BS lies of pre Iraq invasion to go after enemies of genocidal regime of #Israel.

All because Israel killed a dual citizen of US and blamed it on Hamas.

He didn't give a rats ass when Israel murdered American reporters, aid workers and medics. Not to forget using chemical weapons against American citizens protesting the genocide.

Fucking infuriating.

The complaint, from the Rhode Island-based conservative Legal Insurrection Foundation, alleges that the program violates the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which bars race and sex discrimination in federally-funded enterprises like education, as well as OCR guidance.

Not the Onion : The new British aircraft carrier named Queen Elizabeth, which was supposed to travel to the Middle East to participate in war operations against Yemen, broke down off the coast of England...

I guess Sunak is going to push for more tax cuts and cuts in social spendings to repair the floating junk they have on their hands.

Billionaire Peter Thiel Backs Doping-Friendly Olympics Rival — What To Know About The ‘Enhanced Games’

The Enhanced Games said it will not test athletes for drugs or other performance enhancers at its events—it is not clear when the first competition will take place—explaining it “embrace[s] the inclusion of science in sports” and is “unencumbered by anachronistic legacy systems” that are “anti-science” and stigmatize “enhanced athletes.”

Not from the onion : The Ukrainian TV channel 1+1 has said that the Ukrainian armed forces' counter-offensive was only a "psychological operation against the aggressors".

🗣 "The war is being fought not only on the ground or in the air, but also in people's minds. Ukrainian psychological operations will be described in school textbooks in the future. One of the most successful parts of the psychological operation is the counter-offensive. For several months, we deceived the enemy into believing that we were conducting a large-scale ground operation. Cyber troops spread this idea in the enemy's (Russian) social networks and minds. For months now, the Russians have been subjected to the strongest psychological warfare, while our (Ukrainian) troops have been gaining strength and getting stronger for a real counter-offensive".

Not from the Onion : Iranian news sources have admitted that an oil platform was stolen by unknown thieves!

The platform belongs to a semi private construction company and they have no idea how the thieves stole the unit without being seen or caught.

This is not the first time such unbelievable items get stolen in Iran, but it's definitely the largest and most odd item ever.
