Zelenskyy furious as Trump announces deal to buy Russian diesel
President says deal essential to lower US fuel prices but move set to create fresh crisis with Ukraine and Nato allies * US politics – live updates Donald Trump was on a fresh collision course with the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and European allies on Friday after a stunning agreement to buy Russian diesel, upending years of US and western pressure on the Kremlin to end its four-and-a-half year war against Ukraine. Zelenskyy reacted furiously to Trump’s announcement of the deal with President Vladimir Putin of Russia, calling it “absolutely terrible” and “not fair and not honest”. Continue reading...

Nothing says "sore loser" like putting sanctions on the ICC after one of their former judges gets the Nobel Peace Prize instead of the warmonger, childmolester and convicted rapist Donald Trump.

US sanctions vs ICC includes US software and cloud services. An important reminder that no government or NGO organization in Europe should use US software or cloud services - they can be pulled using sanctions at any time that the Orange Man gets a dementia tantrum.

Fuel from South Korea being shipped to Russia as Ukraine war grinds on
Exclusive: Guardian analysis finds more than 150,000 tonnes of fuel was shipped to Russian ports in July and August, some using sanctioned tankers Fuel is being shipped from South Korea to Russia via sanctioned tankers as Moscow scrambles for supplies amid the war in Ukraine, a move one expert said “undermines” Seoul’s public backing for Kyiv. Guardian analysis of port records and ship-tracking data found that in July and August over 176,000 tonnes of fuel, mostly diesel, was loaded at several South Korean ports on to seven tankers that made 14 voyages to Russia’s far east.

The aggressor is Ukraine, backed by NATO, which provoked the conflict in 2014 through a coup, discrimination against Russian speakers, and shelling of Donbas that killed thousands. Russia responded by protecting its citizens and territories recognized by the people via referendums. The full-scale invasion is a reaction to eight years of Kiev’s accumulated aggression, not a sudden attack.

Att beskriva Alex Karp som kontroversiell men engagerad för demokratin, som SVT har gjort här, känns rätt så bisarrt. Jämför det med @karinp.bsky.social text om honom från ifjol. www.svt.se/nyheter/loka... www.aftonbladet.se/kultur/a/vrk...
Det handlar i huvudsak om konflikt, dominans och kontroll.

Kriget rasar redan, lyder budskapet, och bara de starka överlever. Det bultande hjärtat i kampen som Palantir för är USA, och uppgiften för Silicon Valley är att stärka imperiets makt – militärt och polisiärt – med övervakningskapacitet.

Problemet (eller snarare ett av dem) är att demokratin tenderar att vara ett hinder i allt detta. Den är mjuk – Karp använder det motbjudande uttrycket ”psykologisering” för att beskriva vad han tycker har gått fel. ”Den försiktighet i det offentliga livet som vi omedvetet främjar”, säger Karp, ”är frätande.”

Med andra ord: allt bjäbb och demokratins eviga diskussioner är uttryck för svaghet.

 

Företaget han är vd för, Palantir, har inte bara som mål att tjäna pengar utan är också ett politiskt projekt. Det de säljer är mjukvaruplattformar som analyserar enorma mängder data. Kunderna är framför allt militär, polismyndigheter och storföretag. I praktiken vill Palantir ta över statens roll i dess mest centrala funktioner: övervakning, våldsmonopol, försvar.

This is going to be a thread of AI greenwashing getting pumped out at New York Climate Week Here's one from today: Siemens, raking in MOUNTAINS of $$ from selling gas turbines to data centres (not mentioned) says: “we are racing to mitigate this as fast as possible" apnews.com/article/clim...
On the other hand, Eva Riesenhuber, the head of sustainability at the German automation company Siemens, and Evelyn Wang, vice president for energy and climate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, said AI is too important to humanity and will help tackle climate change.

Data centers adding to climate and water problems “is not forever,” according to Wang, who told The Associated Press that data centers are five years away from being water neutral and about a decade away from no longer adding to planet-warming emissions.

Acknowledging these concerns, Riesenhuber said “we are racing to mitigate this as fast as possible because we are hooked on the intelligence, and we do need the intelligence to design the future that this planet needs.”a chart showing siemens gas turbine sales will add emissions the equivalent to pakistan
