Customers have complained that a telehealth network selling compounded GLP-1s has been ripping them off—even after it had to pay $5 million to clients as part of a settlement with the US government.

The indestructible NY Knicks of 2026. What a game omg. The problem -- the Spurs started celebrating way too early. All of Weby's antics about being in Mitchell Robinson's head. Yeah probably, but somehow the Knicks got over it. When the Knicks were blown out, I just desperately hoped for a real game. But it wasn't until they were down by 2 or 3 that I realized holy shit they could win this. It was like Woodstock, or the 10th inning of the sixth game of the World Series in 1986. And Jalon Brunson right now at this moment is one of the greatest of the NBA for all time. The Knicks could still lose, but if they don't, well we'll wait to see how this turns out. As fans we have to have a similar approach as the players. Every moment begins with 0 to 0, not just game. And if our team should lose, it was still a great story. That's really what I want, and tonight, oh man.
Aaron Sorkin is great so I’m of course looking forward to The Social Reckoning. Great job capturing Mark Zuckerberg’s voice too. Only nitpick with the trailer is the music makes it feel overly dramatized, which shouldn’t be necessary because the truth is already pretty bad.

This new eGPU barely works in Linux, gets quite hot, and is based on tech gamers already rejected. So why am I so excited about it?
Stunned. Seriously cannot believe it. I’m torn between wondering if maybe this just isn’t the Spurs’ year to also believing they can win the next three games. 🏀

The company changed course after researchers spoke out against the policy, which would have covertly limited Claude’s ability to develop competing AI models.
Spurs usually start strong but this first quarter is especially good. Opening a 20-point lead early gets the crowd out of the game. Let’s go! Gotta hold on to it. 🏀

Michael Tsai blogs about the EU not accepting Apple’s proposal for a Trusted Agent System that might take 18 months develop:
It’s not surprising that the EU would reject that proposal. The App Store doesn’t approve apps that flout the guidelines but promise to comply later. It doesn’t even entertain proposals of the form, “If I built this would it be approved?”
This is my favorite news from all of WWDC this week. I mean that. In a small way I mean it because I so loathe this aspect of MacOS Tahoe. But in a large way I mean it because it’s proof that the rot has been rooted out of Apple’s software design team.

Podcasting is open and decentralized, built on an open protocol called RSS. That means it’s not owned by any of the centralized platforms (Apple, Spotify, YouTube, etc). Anyone can publish a podcast, any app can consume it, and no single company controls the ecosystem. That’s rare and valuable, and worth protecting. I’m one of the ...

The White House’s Top Science Goal Is Ignorance. “The actions are seen as a deliberate attempt to stifle science and ignore the reality of climate change, in order to support the fossil-fuel industry and satisfy the climate denialism of Trump’s base.”
