Interested in international politics and the world in general. I’m a liberal conservative, or as they say in the US a flaming socialist borderline communist.

It is time to update the word quisling to the 21st century. We can call it Trump instead.

@ducugavril.nafoforum.org has checked the port history. It’s all urea. So no diesel.

Thanks. That puts all reports of it being diesel to rest.

It’s very easy to check. If it is switching between oil and urea it needs a thorough clean. Can anyone check how long it was in port for? See its port history.

I think he only has one ally he wants to benefit: himself. Everyone that is pandering to him will learn this eventually. He can be bought, but once the money is in the bank or election won he’ll forget you.

Let us hope that the whole Trumpian delusion of being saved by the Russians because of his bromance with Putin will come to a screeching halt. PS. South Korea. You’re not making friends

For many US voters this is all mildly inconvenient, while it’s existential for many Europeans (and certainly select US demographics)

I agree. The momentum is very much with the Ukrainians. Russia was foolish not to eke out terms more beneficial to them half a year ago. Now, it is a game of chicken. Will the RU economy crash before EU support does? I think so.

We all know it will continue, until we have casualties. Will that be the point of no return? When RU see that even EU citizens are offered as collateral for ’peace’?

To put this into context, the US has 1280 GW of electricity generation nationwide (2025), the data centers used 31 GW -a number GoldmanSachs has projected to double by next year. Nearly 8% of the US electricity going to process data?! www.goldmansachs.com/insights/art...

Ah, good point. By adding regulation and taxes you slow down the process -cutting some of the oversupply (everyone is projecting unlimited growth). Also, making the things more expensive will force developers to think twice.

Scandinavian Outlook @oelier.bsky.social · 25/09/2026
You need a whip to make them. Regulation or taxes are the only way. Voluntary regimes won’t work.

Scandinavian Outlook @oelier.bsky.social · 25/09/2026
As a European I see that this needs regulation. If businesses are left to their own devices providing power there will be problems on several levels. Main issue is that the datacenters require so much energy (and water) that the grid operators don’t want them connected.

one can dream, but I agree -even if 100 km means no planes need to cross the border (missiles have reach after all) ... it is not so feasible given the climate today. Tomorrow when a stray drone eventually hits something civilian that starts taking lives that count in western media... who knows

Why over Ukraine, why not extend the umbrella to 100 km inside Russia? All, non-cleared traffic will be shot at.

I don't know the context 100% -but it is important to call out hypocrites! However, it is still important to have dialogue with the emitters. They will need guidance on how to improve, because business will demand their services. I hope you can reach out to Amazon to have their statement(s)

Sweden is stepping up public consciousness about the greyscale hybrid war that eventually might lead to hard decisions. If we’re not prepared ultimately risk war we end up surrendering to evil.

The faster the drones, the further you have to expand the umbrella. Would be very effective to expand it into Russian airspace.
