Die jüdische Eigentümerfamilie der Simson-Werke wurde von den #Nazis in einem Schauprozess enteignet und 1936 zur Flucht aus Deutschland gezwungen. Heute posieren ausgerechnet Personen der #AfD im Osten Deutschlands schamlos mit dem #Simson Moped. www.tagesspiegel.de/politik/erbe...
100% Ernteausfall. Kein Einzefall. In der #Klimakatastrophe ein Normalfall. Man müsste #CDU Politikern dieses Video zeigen und ihnen ins Gesicht schreien, dass das zukünftig NICHT besser wird, wenn weiter Co2 in die Atmosphäre geblasen wird. 🤬🤬
Just waiting for this one to bust out some dance moves. And that'll be the last we ever see of it.
Ministerpräsident Pedro Sanchez hat darauf hingewiesen, dass #Ceuta nicht zum #Schengen -Raum gehört. Ich hab nachgeguckt. Das Ganze ist ein hysterisches Affentheater rechter Politiker, das nur Faschisten nützt: Die Ausreise aus Ceuta & Mellila geht NICHT ohne Dokumente. UND da ist ein Meer...

The year is 2028. The strait of Hormuz is still closed. Fuel at the pump is now 10 dollars. The sixth pipeline across the Arabian peninsula has been opened. It got hit by a Shahed-378 the next day. The largest industry in the US is betting when Axios posts that the MoU #37 is close to being signed.
One of my favourite videos about test. Let me talk you through some of the details. In the first 30s, you see the static specimen for the full-scale test with the internal manufacturer serial number (MSN5000) being rolled into the test rig that was installed in hangar L34 youtu.be/B74_w3Ar9nI?...

I'm back in Hungary for the first time after Fidesz' crushing defeat. First thing I noticed is the EU flag in front of the terminal. Driving into Budapest, you cannot not notice the absence of the propaganda billboards (against the EU, van der Leyen, Soros, Szelensky). It's a breath of fresh air.

I had to google this because I couldn't believe it Elon Musk is suing Minnesota to stop a ban on nonconsensual sexual deepfakes. Yes you read that correctly. Why does Elon Musk want nonconsensual sexual deepfakes?
Biological optical fibers? www.researchgate.net/publication/... Hexactinellida or 'Glass sponges' produce intricate transparent structures with optical capabilities similar to optical fibers, but using a wild ambient-temp process instead of requiring ultra-pure 2000°C conditions.
Honeybee flight muscles beat at 200-230 Hz and have a sustained output of over 2 kW/kg. To manage this, they have a VO2max of up to 2000 mL/kg/min. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... For comparison, humans reach 40 mL/kg/min and sustain ~20 W per kg of muscle.

Airbus is moving 900 critical apps off AWS to a French cloud provider. Not because American tech is bad. Because American law can demand access to it anywhere. Europe's sovereignty problem just became Europe's vendor opportunity. https://thenextweb.com/news/airbus-scaleway-aws-sovereign-cloud
Ship filmed sinking off Odesa today appears to be Guinea Bissau-flagged grain ship Golden Leo (IMO 9181833) which was struck by a missile from a Russia jet on 19th July. Reportedly with AS-13 KINGBOLT (Kh-59) or AS-22 KAZOO (Kh-69) air-launched cruise missiles.

🚨 Historic first: A UA F‑16 has scored its first confirmed A2A kill, downing a Russian Su‑35 Flanker in early July 2026. This looks like a major shift in how Kyiv’s Western‑trained pilots are now challenging Russia’s top fighters.
