Vuebuds: Camera-equipped AI earbuds tell you what you’re looking at

Earbuds are small, which is great for comfort, but their tininess is a serious limitation for actually doing things other than letting you hear and talk.

By Malcolm Azania

Earbuds are small, which is great for comfort, but their tininess is a serious limitation for actually doing things other than letting you hear and talk. You can’t use them to fly, fry, pry, or purify. Compare them with a smartphone and they’re one-hit (two, actually) wonders, right? They’ll never even compete with a Swiss Army Knife. Pathetic.

But what if you shoved cameras inside your earbuds and connected them to a voice-activated, speaking LLM (large language model) that could answer your questions about anything you were looking at?


Manipulators Understand That Narrative Control Is Everything

Former Israeli intelligence officer Ella Kenan was seen at a recent pro-Israel conference...

by Caitlin Johnstone

Reading by Tim Foley:

Former Israeli intelligence officer Ella Kenan was seen at a recent pro-Israel conference saying she runs an online influence operation that works with “communities of over sixty thousand people around the world that make our content viral” to manipulate public discourse and “serve the narrative” of Israel.

I’ve been assured that this never happens and that it’s antisemitic to say it does, but okay sure. Let’s move on.


Friday Funny: The President of the United States Told Me to Buy Crypto

Your Friends in Crypto Will LOVE THIS! I think this is a guy named P. Lemon

by npub1tuw5xsg

The President of the United States told me to buy crypto.

I did not ask questions. Questions are for people who do not trust the President.

I sold the truck the same afternoon.


Israel Runs Pentagon

“Raging” Trump denies it. He doth protest too much.

by Kevin Barrett

Just as my new AFP article was going to press, Donald Trump hysterically denied that Israel “talked him into war with Iran.” Right, Don. They didn’t talk you into it. They ordered you to do it. -KB

By Kevin Barrett, for American Free Press

Shortly after assuming office in 1961, then-president John F. Kennedy approved a US invasion of Cuba. The subsequent Bay of Pigs debacle, during which almost all of the US forces involved were killed or captured, is still considered one of the worst-ever American military defeats.


Simplicius Iran War Update: US Secretary of Navy Resigns (Or Is Fired) Just as Third Carrier Group Arrives In Iran Theater

We’re in the “lull in the action” phase of the conflict, as both sides posture and maneuver to get a bead on the other both politically and diplomatically.

by Simplicius

We’re in the “lull in the action” phase of the conflict, as both sides posture and maneuver to get a bead on the other both politically and diplomatically. And this lull has seen a lot of peculiarities.

Firstly, the US Secretary of the Navy John Phelan has either resigned, or been fired, if we are to believe Hegseth’s propaganda mill. The Secretary of the Navy is head of the entire Department of the Navy, one of the three departments in the Department of Defense, or War, if you’re a Hegseth adherent. That means it’s a major position, and for its incumbent to step down during a time of the US’s largest naval buildup in decades is quite meaningful.

by New York Post and California Post

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz announced a requirement for all 50 states to audit their Medicaid provider networks to address waste and fraud in federal benefit programs. He issued a 10-day ultimatum to governors to investigate Medicaid fraud or face defunding. Federal and state officials are clashing over enforcement and legal challenges are expected.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced that 500 hospice businesses have been shut down in Los Angeles. He gave an example of fraud that was detected because $6000 per month was paid by the government for a patient that was on hospice, but did not die.


Sam Altman’s World ID Expands Biometric Identity Checks

Eighteen million scanned irises in, the company has found its real business model: charging advertisers a premium for verified eyeballs.

by Ken Macon

Stand against censorship and surveillance: join Reclaim The Net.

A biometric identity system built on iris scans is expanding into mainstream online services while its backers outline new ways to tie verified identity to revenue generation.

The initiative, led by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, introduced its standalone World ID app in public beta on April 17. The app separates identity management from the existing World App crypto wallet and is described as a tool to “verify with platforms and services, manage your authenticators, store credentials and control how your World ID is used.”

The rollout comes as the organization reports more than 18 million people across 160 countries have already been verified using its Orb devices, which scan a person’s iris to create a unique identifier.


New Arrival: “The COVID Code” by Zowe Smith

The Art of Liberty Foundation is proud to help promote and distribute a story they didn’t want told: The COVID Code: My Life in the Thrill Kill Medical Cult by Zowe Smith. More than a personal journey, this book documents the dark influence of Big Pharma over Western medicine. Zowe Smith, a former healthcare employee, shares a shocking insider’s account of the systemic fraud she witnessed behind hospital doors.

She uncovers how the current system is capable of murdering patients for profit while hiding its crimes by lying with statistics—specifically through the ICD coding system. Readers looking for truth, resistance, and redemption will find all three in these pages. Once you start reading, you won’t look at the medical establishment or public health the same way again.
