    There's a 'race against time' to save Texas history, one home movie at a time
    https://www.chron.com/culture/article/texas-film-video-preservation-archive-21081510.php
    In the quest to save Texas' film history, even people's home movies can help. That's why every year, the non-profit Texas Archive of the Moving Image (TAMI) goes into communities across the state in hopes of soliciting Texans' old video tapes and film reels. "We're a different kind of archive," Elizabeth Hansen, the archive's managing director, said. "We are actively out in the community looking for archival materials. We encourage both individuals and organizations to participate in our free digitization program. We also are very, very access-driven. We digitize it, we put it online, we share it via social media." The archive's events, which they call the Texas Film Round-Up, go like this: Bring your Texas-related old tapes or film, and TAMI will digitize your stuff for free and return it to you in a new, digital-friendly format. If the non-profit's archivists find something that piques their interest, they get to use your footage for its digital archive of film and video related to Texas history. Since the Round-Up program began in 2008 in partnership with the Texas Film Commission, Hansen said that the archive has digitized over 50,000 films.

    This Is Why You Don't Let Libertarians Run Your Country
    https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/this-is-why-you-dont-let-libertarians-run-your-country
    Of course Javier Milei has plunged Argentina’s economy directly into the toilet. Inevitably so. The news only broke last month that Milei’s government is in such deep trouble that it needs a $20 billion bailout from the United States to stay above water, which Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is reportedly prepared to grant. But this outcome was practically foreordained, from the moment Milei became president back in 2023. You could tell he was going to crash and burn, and take thousands of Argentinians’ jobs and livelihoods with him, as soon as he uttered the word “libertarian.”

    California enacts its own internet age-gating law
    https://www.theverge.com/news/798871/california-governor-newsom-age-gating-ab-1043
    California joins a growing group of states with a new internet age-gating law after Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) signed AB 1043, the Digital Age Assurance Act. The law mandates that device operating systems and app stores require users to enter their age or date of birth when setting up a new phone or computer. The new rules are slated to take effect on January 1st, 2027, and for devices set up prior to that date, the OS provider — like Apple or Google — must come up with a way for users to enter their ages by July 1st that year. Negligent violations of the law could cost such companies up to $2,500 per child impacted, and intentional violations could go up to $7,500 per child. The law still shields the companies from liability for “erroneous” age signals as long as they make a good faith effort to comply.

    He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him
    https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/immigration/article312442984.html?giftCode=44d98622506ff2b3ff180a1aa7e0aca3b2f09cf4ee6fa75f97d023c41d2a2b15
    On the morning of Oct. 3, 2025, Subramanyam “Subu” Vedam walked out of Huntingdon State Correctional Institution, the Pennsylvania prison that had confined him for more than four decades. The 64-year-old had spent nearly his entire adult life behind bars for a murder he did not commit. His conviction had been vacated weeks earlier after a court found that prosecutors had concealed evidence that would have dismantled the state’s case. The Centre County district attorney formally withdrew all charges a day before his expected release. But Subu never made it home. As he stood on the threshold of freedom, officers from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement were waiting. Acting on a decades-old deportation order, they detained him and transferred him to the Moshannon Valley Processing Center, an ICE detention facility in central Pennsylvania. His family, who had prepared to welcome him home, instead learned that Subu would remain in custody — not as a prisoner of the state, but as a detainee of the federal government. “To our disappointment, Subu was transferred to ICE custody and is currently being held at the Moshannon Valley Processing Center,” the family said in a statement posted on a website dedicated to building support for Vedam’s case.
