Elon Musk controls most of what remains of Ukraineā€™s internet infrastructure through his Starlink satellites. I honestly wouldnā€™t be surprised if this is all used as a pretense to stop servicing them.

Thatā€™s not much different than what most pop radio stations did in the past 30 years though. Iā€™d say that flooding their platform with joyless, toothless music generated by AI, so they donā€™t have to pay the actual living and breathing musicians on whose backs they built it, is a far worse offense.

If you have to wait until a genocide happens again before it's ok to call a nazi a nazi, then it's too damn late. The phrase "never again" refers to fascist rhetoric as well for this very reason.

Rust zacht, Ben. šŸ•Æļø Het was een voorrecht om met je samen te werken. Met volle teugen genoot ik van de uren scrollend door je immense archief terwijl je de ene na de andere anekdote losliet, altijd verteld met grote bewondering voor je onderwerpen, en bescheidenheid wat betreft je eigen bijdrage.

Gezichtsscans voorkomen ā€˜look-a-like fraudeā€™ op het gemeentehuis. Alleen komt deze vorm van identiteitsfraude op de meeste gemeentehuizen Ć¼berhaupt niet of nauwelijks voor. Toch worden er jaarlijks miljoenen aan uitgegeven.

"Dat westerse landen verantwoordelijk waren, en zijn, voor misstanden in de wereld ontkracht op geen enkele manier dat Poetins Rusland een schurkenstaat is die een buurland binnenviel, om geen andere reden dan dat de inwoners weigerden zijn dictaten te slikken." šŸ‘šŸ¼

Er is niets braafs aan Starmer, die met zijn militaire en financiĆ«le steun aan IsraĆ«l ā€“ na de VS ā€“ de grootste aanjager is van mensenrechtenschendingen in Gaza. Het internationaal recht is geen supermarkt waar je selectief uit shopt.

Aan de ene kant opgelucht dat CDU de grootste geworden is en AfD buiten de coalitie gehouden wordt. Maar aan de andere kant intens deprimerend dat ā€˜slechtsā€™ een vijfde van Duitsland(!) op extreemrechts stemt, en dit tegenwoordig voor goed nieuws doorgaat.
