The Root reports:
A New Mexico jury has found the Gila Regional Medical Center negligent in the death of Nichelle Nichols, who famously played Lieutenant Nyota Uhura on the hit television series "Star Trek."
According to KRQE News 13, Nichols' family filed a lawsuit against the hospital last year following her 2022 admission for shortness of breath. Nichols' family claimed that she should have received a full cardiac examination, but the medical personnel sent her to the observation unit, and she was discharged the next day. After being transported to her assisted living home, the 89-year-old passed away just seven hours later.
In response to Nichol's tragic passing, the lawsuit alleged that Gila Medical Center "hired, credentialed, and inappropriately supervised unqualified medical providers" who treated the actress. The lawsuit also alleged that the hospital failed to secure a bed for Nichols or transfer her to a facility that had one. Furthermore, the attorney argued that the staff should have known that the assisted living center was not equipped to handle a patient with her medical needs.
On Thursday (June 4), a jury found the hospital negligent and awarded Nichols' estate $13 million.
KRQE got this quote from the estate's attorney about the death of the 89-year-old acctress. "At the end of the day, Nichelle Nichols had a heart attack that was missed. Thatâ(TM)s why she died." The jury deliberated for "just two hours."

The Ladybird browser isn't opposed to AI coding tools, but it's just brought a new change to their code-contributing policies.
February 23: "Ladybird adopts Rust, with help from AI."
I used Claude Code and Codex for the translation. This was human-directed, not autonomous code generation. I decided what to port, in what order, and what the Rust code should look like. It was hundreds of small prompts, steering the agents where things needed to go... The requirement from the start was byte-for-byte identical output from both pipelines. The result was about 25,000 lines of Rust, and the entire port took about two weeks. The same work would have taken me multiple months to do by hand.
June 5 (Friday):
We will no longer accept public pull requests... A pull request no longer tells us as much as it used to about the person submitting it. A substantial patch used to imply substantial effort, and that effort was a reasonable proxy for good faith. That assumption no longer holds....
We have already seen patient, well-resourced campaigns in open source to earn maintainer trust and abuse it. What has changed is how much faster and cheaper it has become to produce work that looks like a serious contribution... Whether code was typed by hand is beside the point. What matters is who is responsible for it once it enters the browser. Ladybird is becoming a browser for real users. The people introducing changes to it must be the people who decide those changes belong in the project, and who will answer for the consequences.
As part of this change, we will close all currently open public pull requests. We are grateful for the work people put into them, but keeping the existing queue open would keep that contribution path open in practice. There is no perfect time to make this change, so we are making it now. Going forward, pull requests will only be available to project maintainers. There will not be a separate process for submitting patches by other means. We do not want to create a shadow contribution system through issues, comments, email, or forks...
Outside involvement still matters: clear bug reports, reductions, website testing, standards discussion, design discussion, security reports, and technical feedback all help move the project forward. This is the right change for Ladybird now. We are preparing to ship a browser to real users, and our development process has to match that responsibility.

Coach unhappy with players’ positional awareness
Style was ‘not part of our training in last four days’
Thomas Tuchel was unhappy with England’s “freestyle” performance in the first half of their 1-0 win over New Zealand but the head coach was pleased with Jude Bellingham’s impact as a substitute in Tampa.
Harry Kane’s goal just before half-time was the difference in a forgettable encounter at Raymond James Stadium and there was plenty for Tuchel to ponder after his side failed to capture the imagination in their penultimate warm-up game before the World Cup.

WASHINGTON (ANP) - De Verenigde Staten willen proberen Iraanse bezittingen in te zetten voor de wederopbouw in bevriende Golfstaten en voor het herstel van de toekomstige schade die Iran daar veroorzaakt. Dat heeft een anonieme, goed ingelichte bron binnen de Amerikaanse regering tegen persbureaus Reuters en Bloomberg gezegd. De mededeling komt een dag na een reeks Iraanse aanvallen op Koeweit en Bahrein.
De Amerikaanse minister van Financiën Scott Bessent heeft volgens de bron al een team opdracht gegeven om de kosten in kaart te brengen van de schade die Iran tot nu toe heeft toegebracht aan Amerikaanse bondgenoten in de Golfregio.
De onthulling van de bron is opmerkelijk. Mohsen Rezaei, een adviseur van de opperste leider van Iran, zei vrijdag nog tegen CNN dat een vredesakkoord afhankelijk is van het vrijgeven van 24 miljard dollar aan Iraanse tegoeden die door de Verenigde Staten zijn bevroren.
De bron van Reuters en Bloomberg gaf echter niet aan naar welke Iraanse bezittingen het ministerie van Financiën precies kijkt. De formulering van de voorgestelde maatregelen lijkt zich daarom niet noodzakelijkerwijs te beperken tot de bevroren Iraanse tegoeden.
PYONGYANG (ANP/RTR) - Kim Yo-jong, de invloedrijke zus van de Noord-Koreaanse leider Kim Jong-un, heeft gezegd dat Noord-Korea nooit afstand zal doen van zijn status als kernmacht. Ook waarschuwde zij dat het land geen enkele bedreiging zal tolereren, meldt het Zuid-Koreaanse persbureau Yonhap zondag. De Chinese president Xi Jinping brengt maandag voor het eerst in bijna zeven jaar een bezoek aan Noord-Korea. De Chinese regering wil de banden met Pyongyang versterken.
Xi zal een ontmoeting hebben met de Noord-Koreaanse leider Kim Jong-un. De twee zullen van gedachten wisselen over de bilaterale betrekkingen en over kwesties van gemeenschappelijk belang, aldus het Chinese ministerie van Buitenlandse Zaken.
ARNHEM (ANP) - Ye heeft zich tijdens zijn eerste van twee shows in de GelreDome in Arnhem volledig op de muziek gefocust. De Amerikaanse rapper had vanaf zijn metershoge podium in de vorm van een enorme wereldbol nauwelijks interactie met het publiek en eventuele provocerende uitspraken bleven uit.
Aan het optreden in Arnhem ging een wekenlange discussie vooraf, waarbij verschillende partijen zich uitspraken tegen de komst van de rapper. De 48-jarige Ye, voorheen bekend als Kanye West, kwam in het verleden in opspraak vanwege antisemitische en pro-nazistische uitspraken. Daarvoor bood hij later excuses aan.
In Arnhem was daar, behalve een demonstratie buiten het stadion, niets van te merken. Ye sprak het publiek eigenlijk niet toe en was vooral bezig met het afwerken van zijn setlist. Wel merkte hij op dat het "publiek te gek" was. De fans waren ondertussen maar wat blij met Ye's eerste Nederlandse optreden sinds 2013. Ze zongen zijn nummers woord voor woord mee en op het veld ontstonden meerdere moshpits. Ye besloot zijn show met een buiging.
Maandag treedt hij opnieuw op.
EPE (ANP) - Een zoekactie naar een vermiste man in het noorden van de Veluwe is zaterdagavond afgebroken omdat er wolven in het gebied zijn. Reddingsorganisatie SAR Nederland meldt dat het verder zoeken "te onveilig voor mens en dier" zou worden.
Vrijwilligers van SAR Nederland zochten zaterdag in de middag en avond naar de man van 73, die sinds donderdag wordt vermist. "Trackerteams en zoekhonden zijn ingezet om sporen te vinden, maar helaas is de actie rond 22.00 uur stilgelegd vanwege de aanwezigheid van wolven in het zoekgebied, maar ook voor de veiligheid van andere dieren."
Volgens de organisatie wordt zondag verder gezocht. "We vragen inwoners uit Epe en omgeving uit te kijken naar een man op een rode fiets (fietstassen) gekleed in een lichtblauwe korte broek, grijze schoenen, zwarte blouse en donkerblauw jack", aldus SAR Nederland.

A beautifully preserved Roman house shrine, known as a Lararium, discovered in the ancient ruins of Pompeii, Italy. Shaped like a miniature temple (aedicula), the wall painting features the central Genius (the protective spirit of the head of the household) flanked by the dancing Lares (guardian deities of the home). Below them, a sacred serpent slithers as a powerful symbol of fertility and protection, offering a fascinating glimpse into the domestic religious practices of everyday Roman life.
