The king of Spain has accepted the offer from the regional government of Castilla-León to preside over the celebrations marking 500 years of the Comuneros revolt. Which was a revolt against the king.  :hmm:

Which means it's kind of a pointless celebration, then.

You celebrate your best results, even if you hope to do better in the future :)

Good result in Google v Oracle in the US Supreme Court. Case was about whether copying an API is fair use and the court said it was. A lot of the tech innovation of the last decades is built on that.

Always like it when there's a non-predictable issue with a bit of a split - like Gorsuch writing a coruscating opinion on US treaties with indigenous communities. In this case it was a 6-2 majority (Thomas and Alito dissenting).

There are 3 on the front page. Acts of Terrorism Megathread, YouTube recommendations, and Russo-Ukraine War 2014-2015.    :lol:

Those are just threads started by mongers, not "mongers" threads.

That's because this is not a mongers thread.
