Can Egypt start a new chapter of Middle Eastern history?

The new constitution says Egypt is a “gift” that will “write a new history for humanity”. Should neighbours welcome or fear greater Egyptian influence?

Do artificial intelligences dream of electric sleep? In this essay, I explore the future implications for humanity of conscious machines and highly intelligent machines without consciousness. #technology #Google #ArtificialIntelligence #AI chronikler.com/2022/06/25/do-…

"We're here, we're queer, we won't disappear." After a suspected Islamist extremist killed two and injured 21 at a gay club in Oslo, the city's LGBTQ+ community defiantly marched in pride, countering ugly hate with beautiful love. #oslopride bbc.com/news/world-eur… pic.twitter.com/x8uacKEQq3

You shouldn't deport foreign convicts. If a crime was committed under UK jurisdiction, then the UK is responsible for their punishment/reform. twitter.com/WJHWhitbread/s…

This is appalling. More than 1.5 centuries after Britain stopped deporting British convicts to Australia, it is now deporting foreign convicts to Albania. And the overwhelmingly xenophobic and racist comments under the Home Office tweet are very worrying. twitter.com/ukhomeoffice/s…

Less than 50 years after American women gained the constitutional right to abortions, the Supreme Court has handed control over women's bodies to religious nuts. This will imperil women and children alike. #roeoverturned #abortionrights #RoeVsWade npr.org/2022/06/24/110…

Fracking hell! Rather than draw a lesson from Germany's fossil fuel addiction to argue for speeding up the shift to renewables, the CEO of energy giant E.ON is exploiting the crisis to push for nature-destroying, planet-cooking fracking. #ClimateAction reuters.com/business/energ…

Even if you dislike Julian Assange, you must oppose @pritipatel's decision to extradite him to the United States. This is not about #Assange. It is about protecting media freedom and holding our leaders to account. theguardian.com/media/2022/ju…

@Deeyah_Khan This earthquake is like a metaphor for the plight of the Afghan people: constantly shaken by seismic forces beyond their control and left to their own devices to deal with the subsequent tragedy.
