futurism.com Unknown 2026-03-19 16:18:03

Back in May, as Tesla Takedown rallies and anti-Musk vandalism rocked the world, Tesla dealership manager Matthew LaBrot launched "Tesla Employees Against Elon" — an act of protest that swiftly got him fired. We wrote about LaBrot's symbolic act of defiance against Musk's political maneuvers at the time.

The Internet Archive modernizes its GeoCities GIF search engine

engadget.com Unknown 2026-03-19 17:23:15

The Internet Archive made it easier to search for '90s-era GIFs. GifCities contains millions of animations from the decade of flannel shirts and Soup Nazis. The GIFs were pulled from old GeoCities webpages, which (mostly) bit the dust in 2009. The new version of GifCities is much easier to search. You can now search semantically, based on the animation's content. In other words, it's much more likely to bring up the topic or scene you're looking for by describing it.

With every tick of the clock, every person with money gives a dollar to one randomly chosen other person. After some time progresses, how will the money be distributed?
