PM Carney: you can and must categorically rule out participation in this illegal war.

Your unqualified support of Trump and Netanyahu’s war was bad enough. It’s unconscionable that you’re now considering putting Canadian forces in harm’s way.

And worse: hundreds of civilians have already been killed in the all-out bombardment of dense urban areas like Tehran.

Musing about sending Canadians to fight and die in this carnage is unreal. You’re talking about Canadians being asked to participate in likely war crimes.

Screenshot of a CBC live update. Headline: Carney won't 'categorically rule out' military participation. Body text: At a joint news conference with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Carney was asked if he could definitively say Canada would not get involved militarily in the conflict in the Middle East. 

"One can never categorically rule out participation," Carney replied. "We will stand by our allies when it makes sense."

Fun discovery I made ~ a year ago: Intense ultrasound at 25-40 kHz will absolutely ruin audio recordings, especially if it's modulated.

This ultrasound can also be easly made into a beam using multiple transducers for long range interference. Such an array isn't that expensive either: You could put something together for $50-$200.

Anyways, if you're looking for a stealthy way to disrupt Facebook listening devices smart glasses...

Quote in September last year for a high-memory compute server. £28,000.

Quote today for the _exact same machine_. £90,500

This is for medical research. Saving lives. When I say LLMs are killing people by killing research computing, this is what I mean.
