Asking for regime change after having just received a Nobel peace price is quite a statement. I wonder if the Nobel committee has already developed buyer's remorse.

Machado issues her first statement since being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize and makes a thinly-veiled appeal to Trump for US intervention in Venezuela:
María Corina Machado © @MariaCorinaYA Follow This recognition of the struggle of all Venezuelans is a boost to conclude our task: to conquer Freedom. We are on the threshold of victory and today, more than ever, we count on President Trump, the people of the United States, the peoples of Latin America, and the democratic nations of the world as our principal allies to achieve Freedom and democracy. I dedicate this prize to the suffering people of Venezuela and to President Trump for his decisive support of our cause! 8:34 AM • 10/10/25 • 30K Views

Got me Sony's new noise canceling flagship, the WH-1000XM6 headphones, and I'm so happy about them.

I can't even hear my own high pitched typing sounds which are notoriously hard to cancel out. It's just a boon for an inner city flat. Sound is great as well. Very much recommended!
Sony WH-1000XM6 review: It (mostly) delivers
The latest update to the most popular ANC headphones is here, but are they any good? Find out in our Sony WH-1000XM6 review.

“This is a movement…This is an achievement of a whole society…I am just one person.”

The beautiful humility of Venezuelan pro-democracy leader, Maria Corina Machado, the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize recipient.

Orban was not credible before this video and he's not credible after it.

The EU Commission isn't accountable to us and that's a real problem.

Movements like @diem25.bsky.social have been fighting for more democracy within the EU forever. I still think that'd be an excellent idea.

Actual good news: Chat control seems to be off the table again... for now.

Proof that protest works – but also proof of a broken system. Why do citizens have to fight the same battle every year?
Citizen Protest Halts Chat Control; Breyer Celebrates Major Victory for Digital Privacy
In a major breakthrough for the digital rights movement, the German government has refused to back the EU's controversial Chat Control regulation yesterday after facing massive public pressure. The go...

Well... according to this German Heise article, they actually don't modify their policy in regards to HDDs.
Greedy bastards.

Good news for Synology users!
Goes to show that protest has a very real effect.

Synology has backtracked on one of its most unpopular decisions in years. After seeing NAS sales plummet in 2025, the company has decided to lift restrictions that forced users to buy its own Synology...

The movie is not the actual entirety of postmodernism of course if that's part of the confusion. :)

Of course it is. The new movie is more concerned with fan service, citing itself and nostalgia than with taking its own premise seriously and it shows.

🇪🇺#ChatControl isn't security, it's malware on your device.

Postmodernism was a mistake - at least in regards to all those previously cool 80ies franchises that have been finally screwed up in the last few years.

Gave my Slack bot the ability to pin emojis to other messages.
It also can search on the web and a myriad of other tiny things all while having a somewhat opinionated oldskool coder personality. It's fun!

I'm still betting on an emergent trajectory. Each feature adds to the whole more than itself.

It's all about cognitive load with these broken brownfield repos.
Luckily, github.com/zakirullin/c... exists.
Can't recommend it highly enough as a developer resource.

I always thought it's bad taste and unprofessional to commit swear words or whine about a system in commentary.

After today's system I had to emulate I think differently. Omitting the proper amount of cursing on this brain-breaking dump would amount to withholding any future reader relief.
