ZZS pārstāvji pirms divām dienām pieprasīja dzēst Ventspils ostas parādus, citādi budžets netiks atbalstīts. Tieši šādas potenciālas Lemberga ietekmes Jaunā Vienotība apņēmās novērst šajā koalīcijā. Gaidīsim premjeres rīcību.

Microsoft has been forced to make Windows 10 extended security updates truly free in Europe. Most European Windows 10 users will no longer be required to turn on Windows Backup to enroll into Microsoft's Extended Security Updates (ESU). Full details 👇 www.theverge.com/news/785544/...

Šis balsojums nav par konvenciju. Iespējams veidojas jauna politiskā ass – Šlesers, Nacionālā apvienība un Aivars Lembergs. Iespējams arī Avens nekur tālu nav paslēpies. www.lsm.lv/raksts/zinas...

Ahh jūs neļausiet mežus izcirst?! Labi, tad mēs uzbruksim partneratiecībām un Stambulai. Tik vienkārša ZZS šantāža.

NAšisti un Ratnieks ir izlēmuši pa tiešo ņemt piemēru no Trampa. Starp citu, kā ar ir viņu draugu Pjotru Avenu? https://www.visidati.lv/tk/11455333/ p.s. aizpildīju to aptauju, lai Ratniekam no tās nebūtu jēgas.

Ar interesi sekoju līdzi tam, kas notiek Dānijā un Norvēģijā saistībā ar dronu lidināšanos virs lidostām. Dānijā turklāt vienlaikus bloķēja 4 lidostas, arī militāro. Interesanti, dāņi atzīst, ka šobrīd nespēj neko darīt, lai šādā situācijā reaģētu. Izrādās, esam ļoti viegli ievainojami.

So, the new twitter appears to be Mastodon? At least on this topic? I posted exactly same thread (ht @openvibe ) on both here and blue sky platforms and had considerably more comment and additional input onthere than on there. I don't really get why, the other feels like there may be more users […]

"I just wanted to read another book by Anthony Bourdain, and it was perfect for the dark winter evenings we have here in the Baltics during January.

At first, I didn’t know that I liked science fiction. Honestly, the last one I enjoyed was Orson Scott Card’s ‘Ender’s Game,’ which I read ages ago when my colleague from my previous job published its Latvian translation. But somehow the style and story immersed me in the book, and I willingly […]

This was the second Karl Ove Knausgård book I read. At first, I was looking for something light, similar to his book ‘Autumn,’ where he reflected on the world around him. But to my surprise, ‘Spring’ was much deeper. It wasn’t just a letter from a father to his newborn daughter — it was also a […]

@aradami.bsky.social Izskatās, ka onkam uz vecumu ir aizgājis ciet. Laiku, ko viņš veltīja šim rakstam, viņš droši būtu ietaupījis, pasēžot ar somiem pirtī, iedzerot aliņu, un tad pajautājot, ko šie domā par zviedriem...

Menstruālās higiēnas produkti skolās kļuvuši par normu! Nevienlīdzības mazināšanas apakškomisijā atskatījāmies uz paveikto. Atceros pirmās, nedaudz neveiklās diskusijas un to, kā ministrijas mēģināja novelt atbildību cita uz citu. Šajā sēdē toties bija svētku un kopīgas izpratnes sajūta.

If any of you are watching the "documentary" about the #norwegian #princess and her mate the shaman, you'll instantly think: "wow, they're #racist..." - but take it with a grain of sugar. The Norwegian #monarchy is far from perfect, but it's all a deflection to cover the fact that said "shaman" […]

Koalīcijā panākta vienošanās, ka jebkādas izmaiņas mežu regulējumā var tikt veiktas tikai pēc Meža politikas pamatnostādņu sagatavošanas - iekļaujot sabiedrisko apspriešanu un IVN. Plašāka mežu ciršana netiks iekļauta budžetā un netiks apspriesta līdz izvērtēta ietekme uz vidi.

Noskatījos sižetu par Valmiermuižas pārdošanu. Galvenais ir tas, ka austrieši baidās par savu kapitālu Latvijā, jo uzskata, ka to var pazaudēt kara gadījumā. Papildus austriešiem nav izpratnes par Baltijas un Ziemeļeiropas alus tirgu un šeit esošajiem ierobežojumiem. Somiem viss šis netraucē […]
