Has the sterilization thing been confirmed? Maybe I'm being naive,but that would be pretty shocking, even for America.

From the quickest glance possible, it's not confirmed, just alleged, and is now being investigated.

It also sounds as though it centres on a potentially rogue surgeon working out of a hospital to which the detainees are referred for medical treatment, rather than occurring within the detainment facilities (or at the direction of authorities, etc.):

NY Times

Dr. Ada Rivera, the medical director of the ICE Health Services Corps, which oversees health care in the agency’s detention system, said that the reports would be fully and independently investigated, but that the agency “vehemently disputes the implication that detainees are used for experimental medical procedures.”

In a statement, he said that two women detained at the facility had been referred for hysterectomies since 2018. The agency did not respond to requests for information about how many of the referrals were acted on, nor how many tubal ligations or other potentially sterilizing procedures had been conducted in the past several years.

The complaint does not name any specific staff members, but the lawyers for several detainees who have come forward have said that they center on a particular doctor, Mahendra Amin, an obstetrics and gynecology specialist who practices in the nearby city of Douglas.

Also:

...the lawyer who handled the filing of the complaint ... had not personally spoken with anyone who was sterilized without their consent, but ... included the secondhand reports in the document “with the intention of triggering an investigation into whether or not the claims were true.”

I'll be the first to admit that I do not know the ins and outs of this story, but I would say that "ICE official says they did nothing wrong" has not often been a particularly indication that they've done nothing wrong.

"I mean, sure, we run concentration camps, but forced medical procedures is over the line.

By the way, we are totally NOT making lampshades out of refugee skin."

Kids these days don't know that we have gravity bomb nukes in NATO ally airbases such as Incirlik in Turkey.

These are to be released to local control in case of the Ruskies coming through the Fulda gap.

The Dutch might have been a nominal nuclear power at one point. Retiring the Tornado or equivalent strike aircraft left some of these countries without a functional delivery aircraft, so some countries lost this capability. I'm not sure that Turkey has maintained the pilot accreditations to deliver these weapons, but they are still there, for some reason.

How an old television caused 18 months of broadband internet woes for an entire Welsh town

For more than a year, the residents of a small Welsh town would lose their broadband internet every morning at 7am.
A group of British engineers visited the town, tested connections, replaced cables and walked about the village in torrential rain as they searched for the cause of the internet issue, Finally, after 18 months of investigating the issue, the engineers had a breakthrough. When using a device that picks up electrical interference, they found a “large burst” of interference from a particular house at 7am.
Engineer Michael Jones told the BBC that a resident’s old television was emitting a single high-level impulse noise (SHINE), which caused electrical interference in other devices.

“It turned out that at 7am every morning the occupant would switch on their old TV which would, in turn, knock out broadband for the entire village,” Jones told the BBC.
