Europe’s failure to condemn Trump’s illegal aggression in Venezuela isn’t just wrong – it’s stupid | Nathalie Tocci
The more European countries act as colonies, unable and unwilling to stand up to Trump, the more they’ll be treated as such, says Guardian Europe columnist Nathalie Tocci

A functional country would shut Grok down permanently. Like, immediately. Right now. Last week. Whatever. Just flip the switch. Obviously.

Starker Talk auf dem 39c3
zur digitalen Wohnungsfrage.

Scout24 ist in den DAX40 aufgestiegen und schlägt mit #Immoscout Profit aus der Wohnungskrise und treibt Mieten in die Höhe.

Auch hier kann eine #Vergesellschaftung helfen...

The 8 billionaires are: Musk, Ellison, Bezos, Page, Brin, Zuckerberg, Huang, Ballmer.

Each one saw their wealth explode as a direct result of the massive and unsustainable AI bubble.

Let's resolve to remember that when their bubble bursts all over working people in 2026.

Happy New Year!
"What a year for the ultra wealthy. The world’s 500 richest people added a record $2.2 trillion to their collective fortunes in 2025’s… booming markets, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. And about a quarter of this year’s gains went to just eight billionaires.” — Bloomberg Morning Brief

If I rent or buy a movie from #YouTube, it’s far more expensive if you do it from the mobile app instead of a desktop browser. This shit makes me reconsider piracy.

Sehr gute Dareichungsform:
Diese Warnung ist unmissverständlich.

@francescabria.bsky.social & @josebautista.bsky.social haben das Vorgehen von US-Big-Tech kartografiert.

Ihre Fazit: Ein autoritäres Netzwerk ist auch hier dabei den Staat zu privatisieren.

Wir müssen #Palantir & Co den Stecker ziehen bevor es zu spät ist.

Eine Wirtschaftsministerin, die der Lobby der Milliardärsfamilien Tipps gibt, wie sie besser politischen Einfluss nehmen kann – und das mit dem eigenen Ministerium abstimmt? #Reiche
Das ist ein Skandal.

Milliardäre, die sich wie Könige sehen. Zunehmende Verachtung sämtlicher sozialer und demokratischer Ideen. Spaltung von Arm und Reich und Ständestrukturen. Kriege für den Machterhalt. Wissenschaftsignoranz und religiöse Führerkulte.

Really like this project by Ari Versluis and Ellie Uyttenbroek. Titled Exactitudes, it's a series of portraits stretching back 20 years that shows how people style themselves to signal they're part of a group and unique individuals within that group.

Media outlets can't pivot to AI to save themselves. It's not a business strategy and it's not going to work. The only path forward is for journalists to lean into their humanity, to do things AI can't, and to make clear they are writing for people, not algorithms:

The Media's Pivot to AI Is Not Real and Not Going to Work
AI is not going to save media companies, and forcing journalists to use AI is not a business model.
