Windows 10 Reaches End of Life as Windows 11 Pushes Users Into an AI-First Ecosystem
Windows 10 is officially at the end — and Microsoft is pushing millions into Windows 11 whether they like it or not. Broken migrations, disabled keyboards and mice, forced app updates, AI-first monitoring… it’s all part of an ecosystem tightening its grip.
If you want to understand what’s changing inside Windows — and why so many people are pushing back — this story is for you.

Forwarded from Battleground
I'm not convinced that Earth is flat, but I'm open to being convinced. Flat-Earth advocates often come across as militant and binary, relying on logical fallacies, which is off-putting.
1. If you want to persuade someone to change their view, mocking them is a terrible strategy—it only makes them less likely to listen.
2. Pointing out holes in the official narrative doesn't make your position true. If A is false, it doesn't follow that B is true. Everyone knows NASA is theatre, but that doesn't make the flat-Earth argument true.
3. To convince me Earth is flat, provide direct evidence. For instance, if you believe in a dome, show evidence of it. If you claim an ice wall surrounds Earth, provide evidence of the entire wall—not just a photo of a 5 km subsection. Is there really no drone footage of it? How can you claim it exists if you've never seen it?
Put another way, make an argument FOR Earth being flat; not an argument AGAINST Earth being a globe.
I've changed my views on many topics, but only through good arguments.

⚡️Cloudfare Takes Down The Internet; Here’s an Alternative
Cloudflare just had its biggest outage since 2019 — a bug in their bot-scoring system took down nearly 20% of the internet for hours. One company having that much control is a real problem, especially when they can also decide who gets to stay online.
There are alternatives. Tools like Anubis show we don’t have to depend on centralized gatekeepers to stay protected.
A more resilient internet is possible — but only if we build it.

🪪The First U.S Digital ID App
This is how Digital ID sneaks in — quietly, through “convenience” updates. But here’s the good news: you still have agency. You can choose a physical ID. You can choose tech that doesn’t treat your face as a password. You can choose tools that keep you in control instead of building a profile on you.
Digital ID only becomes inevitable if we all go along with it.
Pay attention, stay informed, and choose the tech that respects you.

Blessings friends and Happy Thanksgiving!
When I find myself caught in the raging storm of life, music always bring me back to center. Part of my muse is the handpan, which I was introduced to by a friend in 2024.
Its a new type of new instrument that evolved from steel drums in the 90s, tonal notes on a metal body that can be played with your hands.
There’s a wonderful sense of depth playing a handpan, there’s more range to the sounds you can make with your hands, and the sound itself can emulate bass, drums, or keys - all truly its own.
During my trip this year to Europe I got the chance to tour the MAG Handpan workshop in Hungary.
We looked at how each Handpans gets forged over 6 months of hard work, with hundreds of hammer strikes to get the tonal fields exactly right.
Thank you to Kolos and the rest of the MAG team for their hospitality! And for those of you who have a budget for handpans, I highly recommend getting a MAG Handpan.
Paid #TBOT subscribers can watch now!

🚨Why I Keep Sounding the Alarm on Digital ID
I keep talking to people about this because I think it’s incredibly important. On Redacted, we dig into the real questions almost no one is addressing: what happens when banking, public services, and daily life begin requiring a digital ID? And why is it always sold as “convenience” when the structure behind it tells a different story?
I break down where this agenda actually came from, who’s driving it, and why now is the time to pay attention — not later.

But there’s good news: with encrypted, open-source tools like Above Phone, you can take your communication back into your own hands.

Google Drops Sideloading Ban, Uses Dark UI Instead
Google quietly softened a policy many thought would fracture Android — blocking normal users from FOSS apps. The original developer-verification plan would have forced developers to hand over app IDs and signing keys to Google, making it impossible to install many privacy-focused or community apps from source.
After unanimous backlash, Google now says “developers and power users” can still install these apps — but only after jumping through hoops. Dark UI and extra steps make the process cumbersome.
Google cites an internal study about “malicious apps,” but offers no numbers, no methodology, and only one unnamed malware example. The first proposal was a prison wall; this new one is barbed wire — you can get through, but it hurts.
