Nonsense desperately tries to make sense of today’s business, technology, and (sometimes) entertainment headlines. Not too serious and occasionally funny, join technologist cj little and leggy blonde Jeff Parker for their unique take on the past week. While we can’t promise you’ll laugh every week, we can promise you’ll learn something new (and maybe even interesting). New episodes drop every Tuesday & Thursday mornings (UTC). Produced by an orangutan; art thanks to artificial intelligence. https://nonsense.productions Twitter: @nnsnspdcst Instagram: @nnsnspdcst Gmail: nnsnspdcst@gmail.comcj little and Jeff Parker 政治・政府

  • HEADLINES: EV’s Shock, Musk's Intimate Emails, Grok’s Daddy, & Your Wearable’s Knowledge

    The "Great EV Pullback" has begun, with automakers delaying or canceling new electric models. Trump’s budget bill eliminates most EV incentives, leading to sales projections tempered significantly by these policy changes. Sounds like there’s more “Suck, Squeeze, Bang, Blow” in our future!

    The Texas Newsroom asked for Governor Greg Abbott’s office to release their emails with Elon Musk, and paid to cover the office’s own expenses. But now the same office insists the emails contain "intimate and embarrassing" content and private policy discussions, making them confidential. Surely this lack of transparency must be in the best interest of Texans while making for great government and policy. /s

    xAI's new Grok 4 AI model sometimes checks Elon Musk's X posts for his views on controversial topics before answering. Wow, even LLM’s have become sentient enough to understand and crave the wisdom of (at least!) one super-human. Yay!

    And finally, your wearable will soon know if you are pregnant, diabetic, infected, or injured. One day in the future it may be able to tell the time accurately as well - on-time singularity here we come!

    Once eradicated from the United States, measles is now making a frightening comeback. In 2025 alone, we've seen a surge in cases across dozens of states, with major outbreaks igniting in communities with low vaccination rates.

    This isn't just a global problem; it's a stark reminder of how quickly a highly contagious virus can resurface when our collective immunity falters. The question is no longer "will measles appear in the U.S.?" but "how do we stop this escalating crisis before it threatens every community?"

    Haven’t we had a highly effective vaccine readily available for decades? Why are we still seeing significant measles outbreaks in almost every region of the world right now? Didn’t we eliminate measles in the U.S. in 2000? How quickly does it spread? So many questions.

    Strap in - you’re leaving this episode knowing more about measles than you ever thought you should.

  • HEADLINES: Tesla Robotaxi Bloopers, FreedomTok, & The Better Flu Shot We May Never See

It’s effectively like SxSW in July! You’ve probably seen the viral videos; your eyes aren’t lying, an ongoing NHTSA probe underscores the growing concerns. 🤖🚕💥ByteDance is creating a new, dedicated TikTok app for the US market to comply with a US law demanding the platform's divestment to prevent a ban. This separate app, internally called "M2", is launching around September 2025; we presume it will smell more American. 🇺🇸 Eventually all US TikTok users will need to switch to this new version, or risk the alternative, reading a book instead. 📖In happier news, our good friend technology advances medical science, yet again! 🧑‍🔬🧪📈 Moderna's mRNA-1010 flu vaccine achieved 27% superior efficacy over standard shots in a Phase 3 trial. The vaccine, showing strong results across flu strains and a mild side effect profile, paves the way for regulatory approval and potential COVID-19 combination vaccines, marking a significant advance in influenza prevention. Time will tell if the vaccine is durable enough to survive the uninformed opinions of those with dead parasitic brain worms. 🤷Tesla Robotaxi Hits Parked Car in First Recorded Accident | PCMagTesla's robotaxi peppered with driving mistakes in Texas tests | Reuters‘Improved’ Grok criticizes Democrats and Hollywood’s ‘Jewish executives’ | TechCrunchTesla Q2 2025 sales dropped more than 13% year over year - Ars TechnicaMass Burn: SpaceX Deorbits Nearly 500 Starlink Satellites in 6 Months | PCMagElon Musk Accuses Trump of Epstein Coverup With Clown MemexAI data center gets air permit to run 15 turbines, but imaging shows 24 on site - Ars TechnicaTrump’s shaky plan to save TikTok may push users to buggy version of app - Ars TechnicaTikTok’s ‘ban’ problem could end soon with a new app and a sale | The VergeHere are the letters that convinced Google and Apple to keep TikTok onlineModerna says mRNA flu vaccine sailed through trial, beating standard shot - Ars TechnicaRFK Jr.’s health department calls Nature “junk science,” cancels subscriptions - Ars TechnicaGodfather’s Used Computer Syndicate - The Best Color 13" RGB MonitorSend us a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠voice message⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!
