Fools. Do we need another nuclear accident to remind people of the foolishness of that technology?

"Surveillance is not safety," EFF's Rindala Alajaji said, via @nbcbayarea.com. "That’s why EFF and the ACLU of Northern California are suing the city of San Jose on behalf of SIREN and CAIR - because in a single year, San Jose PD ran over 250,000 warrantless searches on this location data."

40 years later there is CD and Bluetooth on the Bumpboxx BB-777 boosting 270W! An two microphone inputs. But it cost me almost a rent so any ideas how to make money with it are welcome! :D

Just the headline, "speedball capitalism", isn't that a sign it will now break, the USA economy and with it the world's? If I had any money I'd be too scared to invest it in anything!

The rich pay too little, the ones who could have had a chance to become rich pay too much. A common problem in the world, isn't it?

That is exactly the point. It is terror but it doesn't make Ukraine giving up, on the contrary!

The jury is still out when it comes to the question wether it works. I do think there's an understanding of why it was used against nazi Germany but never the less, I'd say it's considered morally bad. And, in fact, unnecessary.

Markus the Swiss Finn @swissfinn.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

I rather believe it's a moral question.

An argument for decision making as close to the people as possible. I'd like to expand it to include smaller countries and never to give away powers (like EU, USA). But more importantly this shows that people are good. Bad decisions are made far from the people.

Japan surrendered because they feared a Russian invasion, not because of the terror bombings (every city had already been burnt by fire bombs before the atomic show-off). Dig deep enough and there is always another reason. Terror is terror and immoral and should be avoided at all costs.

Why ‘strategic’ bombing doesn’t seem to work

Historically, this method of warfare was designed to break the will of a people by destroying its ‘vital centres’

Nepal contributes less than 0.1% of global greenhouse gas emissions. And yet, they’re facing the brunt of the climate crisis that rich polluter countries and corporations have caused. The question remains: Who should pay for climate damages?

The stupidity of Russia will be its end. Terrorbombing never worked and instead has become a sign of desperation...

The world is a big place but this little peek into Morocco is interesting. With a liberal just winning the elections and a sickly king, his revengeful ex-wife and son to take the throne, one could hope another royal regime collapses.

In Morocco, scandal is weakening the king’s shaky rule

Forthcoming elections will do little to shore it up

Another important note, about the holy veggie fats: "replacing saturated fat with omega-6 rich fats is unlikely to reduce heart disease and may even increase the risk of heart-disease-related mortality"

Surgery is often a terrible waste of money and health. "[T]wo-thirds of the improvement patients felt after surgery was due, on average, either to the body healing on its own or else to the placebo effects of feeling cared for and prepped for surgery." Better take good care of your body to avoid it!

Many surgical interventions are little better than placebo

A succession of clinical trials is upending the field

He's in it for the long game, thinking Europe will "come to its sences" in 10 years. Well, Russia won't exist in 10 years if this continues.

I believe in small countries, with higher levels of caring and democracy. Not because I want Russia and China to take us over but because we are stronger, smaller and united they have no chance. More voices, that's what democracy is all about! And liberal capitalism. Options. Opinions. Alternatives.

Continuing the list of things we still don't know enough about: * Microplastics * Why does organic food taste better? * Why does food from small scale farming taste better? * Effects of genetic modification * I had bad skin in my youth. The effect of coloured candy was immediate and bad. Why?

Tips for scientist to have a closer look at: * Placebo * Why does raw milk taste so much better? * The effect of fat molecules after homogenisation * Better plastics * The effect of combinations of toxins. Now only one is examined at the time but I do think we are dying from a thousand cuts.

I'm an engineer. I study science to understand how things work but my main aim is to make things work. Regardless of how much science has proven to this date. And don't be so literal! "A cure for cancer" means tricks to make you healthier and better your chances of avoiding cancer. Relax...

Just like the world got better by piecemeal social engineering 150 years ago we need to keep on improving the great, democratic, market capitalism system that we have been bullding for the last 4000 years. This is "the solution", not destroying it!

A great look at the evil stupidity of Musk, not unlike the great work of Karl Marx 150 years ago. But however great the reporting is, the solution is fucked up. "Creating a new system" is basically revolution, destroying what we have. Which is exactly what Putin and China wants. Fuck 'em!
