It was a period of rebellion. Princess Leia, heir to the galactic waste management consortium, has once again skirked her duties and run off with a bunch of space hippies.

Darth Soprano, leader of the galactic maf… i mean the waste management consortium, is in pursuit. Hoping to restore his daughter to her rightful place by his side…

Occasionally i need a 3D spreadsheet for something that's very hard or tedious to do in a regular 2D spreadsheet like LibreOffice Calc. The only relevant program i can find is Xcubes (no Linux support) or Minecraft i guess if i try hard enough to make spreadsheets in it (a block of floating lecterns, or maybe signs on glass).

Does anyone know a program that can organize data in more than two dimensions, even if it lacks stuff like the math operations that make Calc or Excel better than graph paper? Better if it's FOSS but i'll take what i can get.

Germany is revoking the citizenship of a recently naturalised man of Syrian background in Berlin after he allegedly praised Hamas on Instagram one day after receiving his German passport.

According to reports, he grew up in Berlin from early childhood, obtained German citizenship under the 2024 naturalisation rules and then posted a picture of two Hamas fighters with a Palestine flag and the caption “Heroes of Palestine” with a green heart. Security services flagged the post, and the Berlin immigration authority treated it as evidence that he had violated the declaration he had just signed; a withdrawal notice was issued and sent to his lawyer. If the decision becomes final, he will lose his German citizenship and the authorities would then have to decide in a separate procedure whether he can remain in Germany at all.

Under §35 of the German Nationality Act (StAG), citizenship can be revoked for up to ten years if it was obtained through deception. Under §10(1), applicants must declare that they support the protection of Jewish life, a commitment that administrative practice understands as including Israel’s existence.

How to opt out Opting out requires you to change settings in two places, so I’ve tried to make it as easy to follow as possible. Feel free to let me know in the comments if I missed anything.

To fully opt out, you must turn off Gmail’s “Smart features” in two separate locations in your settings. Don’t miss one, or AI training may continue.

Step 1: Turn off Smart Features in Gmail, Chat, and Meet settings Open Gmail on your desktop or mobile app. Click the gear icon → See all settings (desktop) or Menu → Settings (mobile). Find the section called Smart Features in Gmail, Chat, and Meet. You’ll need to scroll down quite a bit. Smart features settings Uncheck this option. Scroll down and hit Save changes if on desktop. Step 2: Turn off Google Workspace Smart Features Still in Settings, locate Google Workspace smart features. Click on Manage Workspace smart feature settings. You’ll see two options: Smart features in Google Workspace and Smart features in other Google products. Smart feature settings Toggle both off. Save again in this screen. Step 3: Verify if both are off Make sure both toggles remain off. Refresh your Gmail app or sign out and back in to confirm changes. Why two places? Google separates “Workspace” smart features (email, chat, meet) from smart features used across other Google apps. To fully opt out of feeding your data into AI training, both must be disabled.

Note Your account might not show these settings enabled by default yet (mine didn’t). Google appears to be rolling this out gradually. But if you care about privacy and control, double-check your settings today.

Prakazrel ‘Pras’ Michel was convicted in 2023 after a trial that included testimony from Leonardo DiCaprio and former US attorney general Jeff Sessions.

In the early 2010s, Low - now a fugitive believed to be hiding in China - used billions of dollars stolen from a Malaysian state investment fund known as 1MDB to invest in luxury US real estate, fine art and Hollywood films such as DiCaprio’s The Wolf of Wall Street. Low has maintained his innocence.

Lloyd Russell-Moyle has left his job as aide to Labour MP Kate Osborne after defecting to the Green party.

He gave Momentum founder Jon Lansman a role as a researcher, despite Lansman’s part in propagating the ‘Labour antisemitism’ scam.

He is also been linked to efforts to neuter the ‘Socialist Campaign Group’ of left-wing MPs. This was done by rallying and assimilating the so-called ‘soft left’ into the group.

Worse yet, live on GB News, he defended Israel’s pager-attack on Lebanon which killed and maimed thousands, including women and children.

A team of biologists in Australia has developed a scanning device to accurately detect exactly how potent a cannabis plant is, well before it's harvested. And no, it's not for selecting the choicest buds to get blasted with.
