2024 UK election results under different electoral systems
Very misleading. There is no way to know the results of STV from the results taken under the current system without actually carrying out an STV election. We would expect to see many more votes for third-parties under such a system.

Wayland Found To Be "Intrinsically Faster Than X11, But Not Necessarily More Efficient"
Wayland is just the protocol. You're benchmarking a bunch of different wayland compositors against XOrg, and from the looks of things, at least one (mutter) is worse in every metric than XOrg, so the headline of the article is misleading.

Meloni made migrant 'returns' popular in the EU. Now it's backfiring on her.

Turns out you need diplomacy so other countries take them back.Fascists are terribleat that. That‘s why they conveniently never explain how they make other countries accept their terms and take back all asylum seekers at once. They sit on the issue and beg other EU politicians to take care of it instead.

lmao why?????
This is the second "thing, but running on S3" vibe-coded nonsense that I've seen today.

Walgit – a Git server that is one binary in front of an object store
Tobias Lutke is a fascist, and this is vibe-coded slop.

Have you pirated songs during the 1980s?
This is the third time I've seen a post on this theme in this community. I'm 100% certain that this is bot activity. It must be a common output of LLMs when asked to make posts to the fediverse. And it's always a really dumb question that makes you think they're an alien pretending to be one of us.

It's several paragraphs of slop that could have been ... a tweet. The point they're making is a good one, it's disappointing that they couldn't even be bothered to type 140 characters.

If you use cloud services to do this (which is better than having a honeypot in your home network) make sure to set spending limits in your account!

Following Curators makes sense to cap, because that is more complex algorithm than just listing news
Do you have a reason to say this?

‘Double Spiral’ Secret of Narwhal’s Twisted Tusk Revealed By High Tech X-Rays
This article is slop. The paper is here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-026-75689-z.pdf
And yes, the paper calls it a "helix." It's the LLM introducing the technical inaccuracy of calling it a "spiral."

Academic who accused Jason Arday of plagiarism suspended by university
Nathan Cofnas, a self-defined "race realist" who argues genes play a "non-trivial role" in intelligence differences between racial groups ...
...
His role at a Cambridge college was terminated in 2024 after backlash to his view that, under a true meritocracy, black people would "disappear from almost all high-profile positions outside of sports and entertainment".
We live in a world where the media will hound someone to death for the mere accusation of plagiarism while racists like this get an article written about them where it's just an aside that they are a racist piece of shit. Where is the media storm around this clown's misconduct?
