Doug Holland@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Senators grill Trump's FAA nominee over past effort to alter pilot certification ruleEnglish1·2 days agoAh, “grill” my ass.
Trump could nominate someone who doesn’t believe in heavier-than-air flight and thinks the Wright Brothers pulled a hoax, and the nominee would get “grilled” in the hearings but be confirmed by the Senate.
Doug Holland@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•What California governor Newsom said after an Alabama senator called LA ‘a third world country’English107·2 days agoSick burn, but it’ll take more than a few clever quips to make me forget that Gavin Newsom hangs out with the likes of Steve Bannon and Charlie Kirk and spews right-wing anti-trans talking points.
Doug Holland@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump will target US employers in next phase of immigration crackdown, Homan saysEnglish11·2 days agoThe Trump administration is planning to ramp up civil and criminal prosecutions of companies that employ workers without legal status, White House border czar Tom Homan said in an interview Wednesday.
Pure bullshit. At most, expect a few photo ops at small businesses owned by Democrats, but big picture the employer class is 95% Republican and will never face meaningful civil and criminal prosecutions for employing undocumented immigrants.
Of course, goes without saying that if they were, all of America’s undocumented immigrants would be gone in days, triggering massive inflation and an economic crash of 1929 proportions.

Doug Holland@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•The Beach Boys’ Brian Wilson Dies at 82English7·3 days agoBrian Wilson told the story of how Don Henley once came backstage after a concert. The Eagles co-founder arrived clutching his copy of Pet Sounds, the Beach Boys’ classic 1966 album, and told Wilson how much their music had inspired him when he was younger.
Keen to have Wilson autograph the album, he watched as Wilson picked up a Sharpie and wrote: “To Don – thanks for all the great songs.” Henley turned to leave but Wilson called him back and, grabbing the record, crossed out “great” and replaced it with “good”.
Henley took it well.

Doug Holland@lemmy.worldto Fuck AI@lemmy.world•WasItAI confidently claims that the winning painting of May 2025 Monthly Art Challenge hosted by Krita, was made by AIEnglish6·5 days agoOP is catching some grief for using an AI AI-detection tool, but I also use an AI AI-detection tool when I’m not sure, and I’m wondering we else we can do? The supposed AI image-generators are getting better, five fingers and all, and I’m not art critic enough to always be certain. It’s a problem that’ll only get worse as the fake artmakers get better.
I will say, AI AI-detection and then rejection is the only use I’ve found for AI.
