I'm not into sportsball, or the Emmys for that matter, so this has me very confused. Isn't this a scandal for the Emmys as much as it is for ESPN? If you're giving awards to people that don't even exist, you clearly aren't doing any due diligence to see if they deserve the award. And did the people getting these reengraved awards know that they didn't actually win? They weren't suspicious that there wasn't some official announcement from the Emmys? The Emmys wasn't weirded out by people that didn't win announcing that they did and showing off their trophy? How is any of this a thing?

A team of Harvard scientists working on a project funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has announced a significant breakthrough in the field of quantum computing.

Researchers working with the Optimization with Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (ONISQ) program say they have created the world’s first quantum circuit using logical quantum bits (qubits). The innovation marks a significant stride towards fault-tolerant quantum computing, promising to revolutionize the design of quantum computer processors.

After seeing a different article about the muskrat's dad whining about this New Yorker article, I went to find it. Didn't appear that anyone had already posted it here. Long live the Striesand Effect.

Aug 22 (Reuters) - British military intelligence said on Tuesday that a weekend drone attack on an airfield deep inside Russia which Moscow blamed on Ukraine is highly likely to have destroyed a nuclear-capable TU-22M3 supersonic long-range bomber.

Kyiv, which on Monday claimed to have attacked another Russian military airfield, says Russia has used the TU-22M3 to bomb targets across Ukraine with conventional munitions. Western military experts believe Russia has around 60 of the aircraft.

The problem — and this is a significant one — was that the company’s owners never received the proper permits from the California Coastal Commission or the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which turned that “perfect environment” into an illegal one.

On top of that, the company sold the wine without a business license, without an ABC alcohol sales permit, and it was collecting taxes from each purchase without paying the required taxes to the state.

It's amazing how much some people truly believe that the law only applies to other people.

You're an operating system.
