IDF commanders told Haaretz that southern Lebanon is being demolished “like Gaza.” The declared goal is to prevent civilians from being able to return. Both are war crimes punishable under international law. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Weiß nicht, wer mich mehr ankotzt: Die Profis der Selbstkasteiung „aus dem Tätervolk“ oder die ewig nölenden Post-2022-„Relokanten“, die sich im Westen nicht willkommen genug fühlen. Beide Gruppen performen für für die Europäer www.nzz.ch/feuilleton/m...

Jeden Stuss erzählen (und erzählen lassen), um wohlhabende Boomer in ihren übergroßen Einfamilienhäusern zu schützen. Heldenhafter Einsatz

Aus knapp 4 Prozent macht SVP-Chef Marcel Dettling mal kurzerhand einen Drittel und das steht dann da so in der reichweitenstärksten Zeitungen der Schweiz in einem Interview zur wichtigsten Abstimmung des Jahres – ohne Anmerkung, ohne Factchecking. Medienkrise im Endstadium.

In socialist societies, the opportunity (or rather the need) to tinker survived for much longer. In 80s USSR, can‘t fix your Lada yourself? Good luck. Way into the 90s, car owners were often called „auto amateurs“ in Russian, in the same vein as „pigeon fanciers“

Also re: the AI populism thing: it’s useful to think of this relation between providers and users of technology as antagonistic. Franz recounts how people quickly developed skills to repair/tinker with their cars until manufacturers started to block them more and more from doing so

Leider wahr. Das Scheitern Orbans kam nach 16 Jahren zunehmend zügelloser Selbstbereicherung. Den Schaden macht sein Machtverlust nicht ungeschehen.

Gescheitert sind: Anbiedern an Trump/Putin & vor allem Versuch, mit immer neuen Kulturkämpfen von Korruption, Misswirtschaft & Staat als Beute abzulenken. Das ist kein Stopp-Signal an Afd & Rechtsaußen in Europa. Jedes Land ist auf eigener Zeitleiste. Das kam nach 16 Jahren Rechtsaussenherrschaft.

A very special first for me: seeing my research featured in the @financialtimes.com. This big read walks through the background of one of the most radical referendums Switzerland has faced: the far-right proposal to cap the country’s population at 10m (currently around 9.1m) on the ballot in June

1/ 27 years ago, Slavko Ćuruvija, a Yugoslav and Serbian journalist and newspaper publisher, and a well-known critic of the Slobodan Milošević regime, was gunned down outside his apartment building in central Belgrade on 11 April 1999, amidst the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia. ⬇️

As Europe marks the anniversary of editor Slavko Ćuruvija's murder, impunity for attacks on journalists is rife in Serbia.

What’s killing NATO isn’t the European refusals to access to US bases, but Trump’s unilateral decision to redefining NATO as a US force-projection tool rather than a collective defense arrangement. That’s the constitutional coup against the alliance. Europe didn’t break NATO, Trump did.

Our PhD student Kennedy Orwa, who studies applications of AI to health care, was hastily deported today to Kenya along with his 13-year-old son without opportunity to speak to legal counsel. King 5 reports that he held a valid visa that was rescinded without explanation.

It’s a great time to be in the murder drone industry. (Being in the non-murder drone industry, as I am? Not so much).

This is wild. The 2027 Pentagon Budget includes $54.6 billion—that's BILLION with a B—for the Defense Autonomous Warfare Group, aka "DAWG," which produces AI drones. That's 33% more than the budget for the entire Department of Justice ($40.8b). aviationweek.com/defense/budg...

Israel be like "we may burn every relationship and commit entirely to the current US administration if in return it helps us to achieve our strategic goal and destroy our biggest enemy" and then not achieve their strategic goal or destroy their biggest enemy.

Dass man easy Kindern die Sozialleistungen streicht, ist die Kirsche auf der Torte. Doppelte, dreifache Bestrafung für Kinder in sehr schwierigen Lebensumständen. Eine Schande!

F. leidet an Depressionen und Angststörungen. Weil er Termine beim Jobcenter nicht wahrnehmen konnte, wurden ihm und seinem Sohn die kompletten Leistungen gestrichen. Wie soll man gesund werden, wenn man Angst haben muss, auf der Straße zu landen?
