Yeah, about that trust
MUNICH (AP) — German Chancellor Friedrich Merz called on Friday for the United States and Europe to “repair and revive trans-Atlantic trust together,” arguing that even the U.S. isn’t powerful enough to go it alone in an increasingly tough world. Senator Lindsey Graham stirred anger on Friday with comments on Greenland. The South Carolina Republican, attending the Munich Security Conference in Germany, said in an interview with Politico there, “Who give a s*** who owns Greenland? I don’t.”

One of my favorite genres of literature is lens reviews
This lens taught me that generalizing about the entire line of Zeiss ZM lenses is like making the generalization that Chihuahuas are not the geniuses of the dog world. I did that once and a band of Chihuahua breeders threatened to cancel me (3). I no longer make generalizations in public.

In the mid-noughties, I ran into Dugin at a Current 93 gig at the Ikra Club. He dearly loved English apocalyptic folk music for its commitment to Nazi Satanism.

vaata Anvar, sellega on nii, et kui sa tahad teistelt maksumaksjatelt hüvesid saada nagu näiteks ravi haigestumise & sotsiaaltoetused hätta sattumise korral, siis teistel maksumaksjatel on täielik moraalne õigus sulle aeg-ajalt meelde tuletada, et sust oleks kena käituda nii, 1/
Teine külg on see, et mis on transpordiameti, sotsiaalkindlustusameti või Tervise Arengu Instituudi asi mulle minu enda raha eest öelda, kuidas ma pean ennast ülal pidama, käituma ja millised hoiakud mul peavad olema? Ma arvan, et see on osaliselt võib-olla ka maailmavaateline küsimus. Ei, see ei ole maailmavaateline küsimus, see on ikka põhimõtteline küsimus. Kas riik peab maksumaksja raha eest maksumaksjale ütlema, kuidas maksumaksja peab käituma?

You told me that Americans are taking democracy for granted. Can you expand upon that? When I was doing “Civil War,” I was constantly thinking about how differently Brazil reacted to our insurrection — in a better way than you guys did, because Brazil was quick to do the right thing and send the message that you can’t mess with democracy. We sent people to jail. Bolsonaro is in jail. In America, it’s as if they’re testing, like a kid — they’re like, “I’m going to do it,” and if there’s no reaction, then what? I feel like the U.S. and its institutions are not responding with appropriate firmness — putting up boundaries, people facing consequences.

Directly replacing the US contribution would cost $1tn, assuming one-off procurement costs and 25-year life cycle for equipment, the International Institute for Strategic Studies estimated in a report last year. In some cases, such as for spy satellites, filling the gap left by the US could take a decade or more. On top of that, replacing the US nuclear deterrent in Europe, either by expanding the size and scope of British and French nuclear capabilities or developing a new platform, is a separate and additional challenge of an altogether different magnitude. For Carlo Masala, professor of international politics at the Bundeswehr University Munich, fully substituting for the US is the wrong objective. “It’s not about being as good as the US, which will take us 15 years or even longer. It is just being better than the Russians.” That is “completely different” and achievable in three to four years, Masala adds.

“This crisis is much worse than anything we’ve seen in 77 years of Nato history and in many ways, anything since December 7 1941, which is when the United States formalised the idea that the security of Europe was fundamental to the security of the US,” says Ivo Daalder, a former US ambassador to Nato. “That idea that was formalised in treaty form in 1949 is gone. It’s over.”

Candidates find themselves tailoring CVs to algorithms trained to detect key words. University careers services departments — such as at King’s College London — are offering students AI tools that give personalised recommendations on how to tailor CVs and cover letters so that first-time jobseekers can game the bots reading them.

At least four times in his remarks at Davos so far, Trump has referred to Greenland as “Iceland.” “They’re not there for us on Iceland that I can tell you,” Trump said of NATO partners. “I mean, our stock market took the first dip yesterday because of Iceland, so Iceland’s already cost us a lot of money.” He also did that a day earlier during a marathon news conference at the White House.

The last island Denmark sold to the US was the Epstein Island.
Somewhat of a random fact: the last time Denmark sold an island to the US was in 1917. That island was Little Saint James, more commonly known today as “Epstein Island.”

Big Pharma hakkab Euroopale ravimihindu tõstma.
“When [we] do the math, shall we reduce the US price to France’s level or stop supplying France? We [will] stop supplying France,” Bourla told reporters at the annual JPMorgan healthcare conference this week. “So they will stay without new medicines. The system will force us not to be able to accept the lower prices.” Other pharma executives said at the conference that they were quietly considering withholding or delaying drug launches in Europe. Trump last year demanded drugmakers slash prices in the US or face tariffs. As of this month, 16 global drug companies — from AstraZeneca to Roche’s Genentech — have agreed to lower US drug prices. These voluntary agreements with the White House require companies to benchmark certain drugs in the US at prices in other developed countries ranging from Canada to Europe and Japan.

"French intelligence, working with Ukraine, deliberately fed false high-level intelligence to Trump’s regime to test whether it would leak. That information quickly surfaced in Russian channels, confirming their worst fears. As a result, France and other European services have effectively cut the United States out of critical intelligence flows related to Ukraine and broader security matters."

muski lapse ema andis xAI kohtusse, sest twitteri kasutajatele meeldis 14-aastase tema fotosid lahti riietada 🍿
Ashley St Clair, the influencer and mother of one of Elon Musk’s children, has sued the billionaire’s AI company, accusing its Grok chatbot of creating fake sexual imagery of her without her consent. In the lawsuit, filed in New York state court, St Clair alleged that xAI’s Grok first created an AI-generated or altered image of her in a bikini earlier this month. St Clair claims she made a request to xAI that no further such images be made, but nevertheless “countless sexually abusive, intimate, and degrading deepfake content of St. Clair [were] produced and distributed publicly by Grok”. In one case, a photo of St Clair from when she was 14 years old was altered by Grok to undress her and put her in a bikini, according to the court filing. St Clair is a conservative influencer with about 1mn followers on X and the mother of one of Musk’s children. The billionaire entrepreneur has espoused pronatalist views, arguing in support of increasing birth rates, and has fathered at least 14 children with several different women.
