Apples anti-malware system in Mac OS is more disruptive to my workflow than any malware has ever been. It suddenly decide I’m not authorized to open my own files and there is no fix for it except rebooting and then After rebooting I’m authorized again.

The next tipping point in the energy transition is approaching. Overall, solar has already been cheaper than fossil power for a while, but upfront costs used to be higher. That's no longer the case. Solar is now competitive upfront AND has vastly lower operating costs (no fuel).

OTD in 1853 the Battle of Oltenita was fought. 1st of Crimea war. Russian troops crossed into European Turkey to "protect orthodox Christians" as excuse to try to capture Constantinople. Lost 20 times as many as the enemy in 1st engagement of a war we'd lose. It's a tradition.

Now Orban claim EU is incompetent because they allow him to steal EU funds. I agree.

WarTranslated (Dmitri)@wartranslated.bsky.social

Hungarian Prime Minister Orbán stated he would not allow Ukraine to join the EU, claiming it would drain resources meant for European families, farmers, and industry. He criticized bureaucrats, suggesting they disregard where Europeans' money goes.

Trump is admitting two things here. The first is that he has been serving Russian interests by protecting Putin on numerous occasions. The second is that Trump is feeling pressure to be harder on Russia, which he really doesn’t want to do. Response: keep up the pressure!

When the Soviet-Russian army entered the Serbian part of Yugoslavia in 1944, it started to mass-rape and pillage on a scale where even the Yugoslavian communists protested in Moscow. Stalin just responded: let the boys be boys.

”… it turns out the EU’s trade nerds have stirred some unaccustomed creativity into their expert knowledge of obscure customs codes, while channeling a helping of passive aggression to inflict pain on Trump’s base.”

Konrad Iturbe@konraditurbe.dev

Remember the EU has a roster of 50 guys that look like this whose only job is to find ways to maximize pain to exporters in red states thru customs codes in tariffs and that's exactly what they did today. www.politico.eu/article/eu-t...

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.

Seriously, if Germany gets the bad idea to open the remaining Nordstream pipeline I hope Sweden secretly blows it up.

Paweł Tokarski@tokarski.bsky.social

Nothing more to add. A mere return to dancing around the pipeline means irreparable damage to German-Polish relations and beginning of the end of European unity. Such ideas must be abandoned as soon as possible. www.ft.com/content/6a81...

Zakharova's monologue about Russophobia: "They need to see doctors because Russophobia is a diagnosis. It is a contagious, transmissible disease.There is no need to buy medicine for it, by the way. It is necessary to know history, to stop distorting it. It is necessary to separate truth from lies."

”The Kremlin on Thursday accused European countries of prioritizing military buildup over peace efforts… ’Europe has embarked on a path of militarization and has turned itself into something of a war,’ party Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.” Let them know fear. Stand with Ukraine.

Anniversary of invasion of Iraq reminds us of Chomsky's wise words about how "Russia is fighting far more humanely in Ukraine than US did in Iraq". Which is why 20,000 kids were stolen & sent to Texas, parts declared 51st state after legit vote & minimal civilian deaths.

This is the most un-American administration ever! It's just a bunch of nepo snowflakes who keep victimizing themselves and complaining that the system THEY RUN is rigged against them. They use the state to address all their issues and limit freedom of speech for others. Pathetic!
