Not the Onion

Worst kind of article in the world; stop saying “here’s the thing”. I know this place is supposed to be for competitive gameified bookmarking, which is swell, but what if we all just suffered? Writhed? Worst “don’t laugh” drop in history. It’s as plaintive as “please clap”. They even mention KKKlavicular. Thing is, this kind of hallucinatory garbage occupies the minds of DNC decisionmakers throwing away idiots’ money. Charli XCX will be back for more of their fine ketamine, surely.

“Quantum theory provides a foundation for describing systems that are probabilistic, interdependent, and evolving (Busemeyer & Bruza, 2012; Haven & Khrennikov, 2013). Translating these ideas into tourism produces a model that explains how behaviour, feedback, and innovation interact across cognitive, relational, and systemic levels. This complements entropy reduction in tourism (Li et al., 2025), which conceptualises tourism as an open system that shifts between stability and disruption. While entropy theory focuses on energy and order, the quantum perspective explains the structure of uncertainty: how multiple possibilities, relational ties, and networked feedback generate adaptation and innovation.”

Considering the pickup EV has been an enormous commercial flop, only selling barely a fraction of Musk’s promised 250,000 to 500,000 Cybertrucks a year, there’s a good chance Tesla is using the mercurial CEO’s other venture to boost the numbers ahead of the end of an otherwise disastrous year.

It is live today and available on the desktops of all military personnel, civilians, and contractors. With this launch we are taking a giant step toward mass Al adoption across the Department. This tool marks the beginning of a new era where every member of our workforce can be more efficient and impactful. The first GenAl platform capability is Google Gemini, a frontier Al application that can help you write documents, ask questions, conduct deep research, format content, and unlock new possibilities across your daily workflows. Gemini is the first of several enterprise Al applications that will be rolled out on the GenAI platform. It is secure, certified up to Impact Level 5 (ILS), and is fully authorized to handle CUI. Victory belongs to those who embrace real innovation. Rather than being reliant on the dusty, antiquated systems of a bygone era, we are thinking ahead here in the Department of War. GenAl.mil is part of this monumental transformation. It removes wasted time and focuses more of our energy into decisive results for the warfighter. Access is straightforward. Navigate to GenAl.mil and you will be able to access the tool with your CAC. The platform is certified secure for operational use on NIPR. I expect every member of the Department to log in, learn it, and incorporate it into your workflows immediately. Al should be in your battle rhythm every single day. It should be your teammate. By mastering this tool, we will outpace our adversaries. The power is now in your hands.
