JD Vance's visit to Vermont ski resort interrupted by pro-Ukraine demonstrators after Zelensky exchange

Reply in thread

Would be great indeed but I fear there won't be"that moment where he realizes ...". In his view he's doing everything right for his audience (grifter in chief, Putin, billionaires). Nevertheless "chapeau!" to the protesters, well framed in the ski resort setting - always to remind the amount of taxpayer paid relaxation while others suffer from their actions.

Schleswig-Holstein i Tyskland flytter til LibreOffice

Jeg bruger LibreOffice privat på både Linux og Windows og kan klart anbefale. Der er helt sikkert en vis indlæringskurve, men den er ikke dramatisk, da der er vejledninger og supportgrupper til rådighed. Jeg kan forestille mig, at integration med eksisterende offentlige systemer er en udfordring, men at etablere disse forbindelser bør være en bedre investering i IT end at løse Microsofts problemer.

Google, Apple hit by EU regulatory crackdown

It will get difficult for the parties not understanding the concept of "law and order" to accept that markets are very well positioned to set the rules of engagement. You can select to play by those rules or not offer your service in that market but somewhere else (or scream your victim complex to your audience)

Pull the trigger on tougher Russia sanctions, Zelenskyy urges Trump

It will be a steep learning curve to realize that owning and citing from a book (let's say the art of the deal) doesn't mean that the enormous effort that previous world leaders put into brokering peace agreements was because they were stupid or lazy. Unfortunately, predictably, "bullying everyone and everything" will not work, but putting the ball so clearly in Russia's court is actually good progress.

Trumps tidligere sikkerhedsrådgiver: USA kommer hverken til at overtage Grønland eller bruge militær magt

Hvis man tænker invasionsscenariet lidt videre, bliver angriberen jo straks en krigsforbryder, og ICC ser ud til at fungere ret godt for mig. For selvudnævnte tidligere aspiranter til Nobels fredspris er dette måske for vild en udvikling, og det ville kræve en del disciplin (at blive i et land, der ikke anerkender ICC, "heldigvis" hjemlandet) for ikke at ende i en celle.

the US to say anything? We do the same thing with our Criminal laws

... and don't acknowledge the ICC and host indicted war criminals / Netanjahu. The president is also banking his annexation plans on the ICC not enforcing indictments in his case. And I believe I read that the agenda of Netanjahu's next visit to the US openly includes action to undermine the ICC, so it's indeed right wing authoritarians conspiring against accountability.

What do you think about the idea of banning Twitter in the EU?

In my opinion, the advantages of these platforms will far outweigh the disadvantages - provided that the abuse of power can be curbed (opaque algorithms that present fringe positions to a large audience, censorship by the owner, etc.). Regulatory measures are needed for all actors: rules for algorithm transparency, audits. If disclosure or audit fails, platforms can continue to be accessible but must shut down algorithms.
