The view from Western Europe is clear. Putin is our biggest threat to security. Trump is a very close second.

I keep saying it. SpaceX is a satellite company. The whole Mars thing is just an advertising gimmick. Musk is never going to Mars. Here's the scientific reality, hammered home for those in the back. https://defector.com/neither-elon-musk-nor-anybody-else-will-ever-colonize-mars

An interesting update on an Australian company that is making big business out of converting monster diesel trucks to electric power with batteries that can be swapped in four minutes. The swapped out batteries are then charged from their own solar farm. Swapping means they can introduce new […]

‘The political press may not understand what’s happening (or may be too afraid to say it out loud), but those of us who’ve spent decades studying how technology and power interact? We see it and we can’t look away. So, here’s the bottom line: when WaPo’s opinion pages are being gutted and tech […]

It strikes me as an academic question whether Trump is or isn't formally a Russian asset. The important thing is that he ACTS as though he is. And, as Trump's actions increasingly benefit America's long term foe, you've got to ask when the country will wake up and defend what's left from the […]

This is the most important comment I have heard this week — Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk: “500 million Europeans are asking 300 million Americans to defend them against 140 million Russians […] Europe, if there is something we lack today, it is not economic or demographic power, but […]

Via Alt National Park Service on Bsky: #Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This […]

As world leaders immediately unite behind Zelenskyy, Britain's Nigel Farage has spent hours working out what to say. He shouldn't have bothered....

#USpol #USPolitics People upset that Zelenskyy didn’t wear a suit in the Oval Office have conveniently forgotten that Elon was dressed like a 90s emo kid during the last cabinet meeting that he presided over.

Worth remembering that a 0.2 percentage point increase in UK spending is equivalent to a 10% increase in the defence budget, but a 40% decrease in the aid budget to less than half what it was when the Conservatives came to power. Absolutely devastating. #UKPolitics

Honestly EU, it's long overdue for states to block and thus shut down X. The US is actively interfering in elections in plain sight. Shut the offending platform(s) down whilst you still can.
