"textContent": "I have another busy day ahead of me, but we cannot forsake our daily Pook-Emu Bee links. 1. Syncthing 2.1 adds group organization and proxy support options (Fla for AlternativeTo. May 12, 2026.) I approve of having “the ability to group devices and folders in the GUI using a new group attribute.” 2. Airbnb enlists Al Sharpton in fight against Mamdani’s short-term rental crackdown in NYC: report (Ariel Zilber for the New York Post. May 11, 2026.) I’d ordinarily make a “it’s a pity they can’t both lose” joke but in this case the Mayor is correct. 3. Stranger assaulted by maniac weeks before he pushed retired NYC teacher to death recounts frightening attack: ‘Why is he following us?’ (Joe Marino and Anna Young for the New York Post. May 8, 2026.) ‘Maybe a part of me was just like, I don’t want to put another black man in jail, but, you know, at some point, if you are a criminal, you’re a criminal, and he was scary, he was a scary guy.’ Let us hope she suppresses that stupid part of herself if there is a next time in the interest of getting homicidal criminals off the street. 4. John Calipari slams the NCAA for catering to European pros over American kid (Yalshpat Bhagava for Basketball Network. April 27, 2026.) Notwithstanding the ever-increasing professionalization of college basketball, I would be inclined to agree with Coach Calipari (always the advocate for elite NBA draft prospects) that young (or not so young) men who were playing professionally in Europe should probably not be eligible to play American college basketball. 5. JPMorgan Offered a $1M Settlement to MeToo Accuser of Female Exec (Paul Bois for Breitbart. May 6, 2026.) These people just shoot money out of firehoses. 6. “He Was Literally Frothing At The Mouth” – Yuji Naka Really Didn’t Want Sega To Make Mature Games (Damien McFerran for Time Extension. December 16, 2025.) A family-friendly game designer after our own heart. I don’t suppose this is how we avoided Tails’ Bad Fur Day. 7. Maggots Are an Incredibly Efficient Source of Protein, Which May Make Them the Next Superfood for Humans (Mary Roach for Smithsonian Magazine. January/February 2026.) Is it just me or have they not been trying to convince us to eat the bugs as much these days as they were 6-12 years ago?",
