My microwave sings a little song when my Hot Pocket is done. Should it have the right to vote?

The "art of the deal" is to just give me everything I want and assume it means I won't come back for more.

Europe cannot agree on any peace agreement with russia which doesn't include the right to immediate retaliatiate against any cyber or hybrid attack on any European country that would just SMELL LIKE a russian provocation. Fuck russia, for fuck sake

Sorry, maybe I am stupid but: are we telling russia that they won the war? What? Where is the compensation request? Where is the money for rebuilding Ukraine? What the actual fuck

French authorities are taking X to court because Grok is now doing straight up holocaust denial. Gas chambers intended for disinfection, cyanide residue tiny, ‘story’ persists because of taboo against critical examination. (Full translation in alt text)

This shit with Cloudflare right now is exactly why it's such a dumbass idea for so many tech companies/services to depend on any one company.

HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!

In a war with armies, the war will eventually end because one army or the other will eventually run out of resources or reach a truce. Thiel, Trump, Musk and other billionaires can engage with anyone and anything on this planet because they won't run out of resources.

Instead of paying a ransom demand after getting hit by extortionists last week, payment services provider Checkout.com donated the demanded amount to fund cybercrime research.

"global commitment to climate change policy fades" Guess whose fault is this?

Good morning to all those people who wasted the last decade saying, "there's no point tackling climate change in the UK, because China." www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

It's not my fault, says the invader.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez: “A few tech-oligarchs are clearly influencing electoral processes. We’ve seen it in the UK, Germany, France, Hungary…and I’m sure we will see it in Spain.” (El Pais)

Technocratic autocracy is the end goal here, and they're not even hiding it anymore. These people should be treated as existential threats to democracy, human rights and human dignity. gizmodo.com/palantir-ceo...

The richest person on earth is getting richer and for some reason I am not surprised. Are you surprised?

So, socialism is BAD for people but GOOD for companies? The US are really weird.

Apple billions and amazon megamillions don't count right?

I agree, adding that I’m very concerned about its effects on adult brains too. I think it’s much more psychologically dangerous to interact with an LLM designed to reflect your own ideas back flatteringly than to post on social media, where someone will always be ready to call you a c***

Oh OK. I was worried for a moment, but I will trust someone whose revenues are almost completely bound to AI to give me ensurance

Venezuela claims it has captured CIA-linked mercenaries plotting a “false flag” attack to justify US military action.

80 years ago, the world chose peace, law, and cooperation🇺🇳 Today, those principles are under attack. In Europe, Ukraine is on the front line of this test, fighting for freedom and the UN-based order. We stand firmly with them. Lasting peace begins with international law. #UNDay

Important moves are afoot in Sweden. In recent years, constitutional experts have realised that our Constitution ("grundlag") is vulnerable to manipulation by would-be authoritarians. As things stand, changes to it can be made by having two parliamentary votes separated by a general election,

Se solo fossero stati ambientalisti o attivisti per i diritti umani ora sarebbero sputtanati ovunque, identificati, puniti e in Parlamento si parlerebbe di nuove e più stringenti misure contro questi teppisti-terroristi-criminali. Invece sono fascisti, quindi tutto ok!

NEW: The Kremlin is attempting to use all available informational avenues to convince the US, Europe, and Ukraine to acquiesce to the Kremlin’s demands by convincing them that a Russian victory in Ukraine is certain when it is anything but. More in tonight's assessment: isw.pub/UkrWar102025

PSA: we're aware that Signal is down for some people. This appears to be related to a major AWS outage. Stand by.

And NOT because trump asked them to. Absolutely not the reason. It's because of supporting fashion. Yep. That, for sure.

You can't make this shit up.

Has anyone figured out yet a way to "getting worse before getting better"? Just for the sake of argument, how bad the world stance should get before things will start moving in the right direction which is, shockingly, just for peoples to not fight over soybeans and dirt?

For how many years are we now going to read about the AI bubble about to burst? More or fewer than the years we had to hear the same story for the blockchain?

I just saw someone use the abbreviation “AI;DR” and I’ll be laughing for a while.

📣 Germany's close to reversing its opposition to mass surveillance & private message scanning, & backing the Chat Control bill. This could end private comms-& Signal-in the EU. Time's short and they're counting on obscurity: please let German politicians know how horrifying their reversal would be.

We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/ge...

I agree, nothing makes sense anymore. Just give up.

"Avete fatto più inviti alla flotilla di fermarsi che ad Israele". [On. Riccardo Ricciardi, oggi alla Camera] Game, set and match.

Turkish foreign ministry says attack carried out by Israeli forces against the Global Sumud Flotilla in international waters is an act of terrorism that endangers the lives of innocent civilians

I wouldn't be surprised if Trump would strike a deal with putin to export some oil. Can you imagine?

Be ready for high-intensity warfare against Russia tonight, says general Pierre Schill, chief of staff, French army. Comment: I suppose not literally, but potentially any day now. From thread on X, with analysis by french analyst @arthurkenigsberg.bsky.social x.com/KenigsbArthu...

"The United States shall regard any armed attack on the territory, sovereignty, or critical infrastructure of the State of Qatar as a threat to the peace and security of the United States." Oh no who has recently attacked Qatari territory?!!?

There is a lot of energy coming for free from the Sun, you know, but you prefer coal, and apparently for aesthetic reasons 😅

So in the USA the president has also a say about which movies you guys can watch or not? That's really funny 😂

This is a great opportunity! Maybe we can then just stop watching US-made movies and shows which are not usually *that* great? Thrump please stop exporting!

A bad day for putin is a good day for the rest of the world
