Leg-shortening surgery should be an optional alternative to prison time.
So basically, the taller you are the more you can afford to embezzle. The entire NBA becomes corporate scapegoats overnight.

Teen Boys Are Using Meta Glasses to Harass and Bully Girls at High Schools and Middle Schools
As terrifying as it is to finally merge the classical and cyber bullying space, that merely represents the creativity and capability of a child. No company has or ever will secure user data. Hyperbullying is very tame compared to the abuse having access to the perception of almost every single student in almost every high school at almost any time allows for. Social media is obliterating kids enough, they really don't need AI enhanced tech bro perverts teaming up with Hyperbullies to create the ultimate predatory environment on top of everything...
On an adjacently related note, it must be impossibly frustrating to write about anything involving minors nowadays since you can't say any of the victim/perpetrator names or link to any of the footage. So the whole article has to use indirect evidence, pronouns, vague suggestions, and nondescript abstractions to describe anything, which makes the whole article sound like it could be some AI response from a prompt about an AI generated rage-bait trend.
I do believe that a human writer wrote this to the best of their ability using the facts they have available, but the form their prose must take because of required censorship laws can very easily allow for people to argue the whole thing is AI generated slop and ignore it.

What Boeing did to all the guys who remember how to build a plane

I didn't read this, but did you guys know that Zerglings from the game StarCraft: Brood War have a unique upgrade called Adrenal Glands. After applying the upgrade they are colloquially referred to as "Cracklings" because they attack so quickly. This upgrade, only available after evolving a Hive, makes Zerglings extremely effective in the late game, and allows them to swarm enemy units and bases much more effectively. Despite their small size and low health, with this upgrade, Zerglings can become a critical component of the Zerg army, showcasing the game's strategic depth and the importance of upgrades.

Woman declared brain dead being kept alive to continue pregnancy under state law, family says
Ahhh, so we're gestating our young in the corpses of their mothers now? That seems less than ideal.

Since bits are ones and zeroes, and also mean true/false and on/off by extension, doesn't that mean all solutions to IT problems are just turning something off and on again at some level?
In theory. In reality it's not on or off it's always on and it's high vs low voltage.

38 year old adults are generally assumed to be of voting age, registered, and willing to vote. Do you think he'll get better voter turnout from something like Roblox or Fortnite?

17-year-old jock Talan Renner kills 16 yo at Arizona house party': Bullies 'then danced on dying teen's body and "humped" him'. Then, Phoenix police helped the Renner family.
Yawn
Oh look, another sociopath murderer whose out of touch rich parents will bail out and then will give him a free ride through a pay-to-win degree at an ivy league school catapulting him into a useless but well-titled corporate position so we can have yet another narcissistic [choose one or more: pedophile/rapist/murderer] in a position of power.

Hacktivist deletes white supremacist websites live on stage during hacker conference
I'm thoroughly confused about WhiteDeal.
A service where one contracts other white supremacists to do menial ad hoc jobs for a cost under the market price just seems so very antithetical to the whole "supremacy" thing.

PLASTICMAXXING

Yes, in theory. It's extremely dangerous and absurdly expensive. It also would only address the microplastics currently in the bloodstream - the ones already embedded into organ tissues wouldn't be reliably filtered out this way.
