Written down like this, it seems pretty bizarre, and that’s because it is. It’s also not easy to realize that our relationship with America is over after 80 years. It took time for me as well to accept that.
But it really is over. (…) The US has dismantled the official privacy framework. The deal is dead.
So stop surrendering our society to America. Have the courage to use different software and services. Even if it takes some getting used to.
You can take the woman out of the US, but you can’t take the US outta the woman:

Huge game tonight! Come on City! #RMAMCI @mancity @championsleague
We’re trailing by one goal but this is a return game in Madrid. Great lineup and hoping for a dominant 3-1 display to go through 🤞⚽️💪 🩵🤍
Absolute insanity from the US, unsurprisingly:
This executive order instructs federal employees of the federal government to ignore Supreme Court rulings and congressional actions if the President or Attorney General tell them to.
Tell me you’re trying to become a dictatorship without telling you’re trying to become a dictstorship.
John Gruber diving deep into the changes from Gulf of Mexico to the other name:
…until Trump’s executive action, there was no controversy, zero, none, nada, anywhere in the world, amongst any group of people, regarding the name of the Gulf of Mexico.
(…)
This whole thing, needless to say, sucks. It’s profoundly stupid, and the aspects that aren’t stupid are jingoistic.
Beyond the controversy, it’s a great dive into the ramifications of the decision, and a worthy analysis of the grand scheme of things. I swear, this shit is so tiring!
☕️ I recently read an article by my friend @adders (from his apt-titled Coffee and Complexity) about how the climate crisis is affecting coffee prices. It’s something we’ve been noticing for a while now.
As someone who takes their at-home coffee seriously, I’ve seen the prices at my local roaster go up. She mentioned that the cost per kilo has risen above 10€ for the first time in the past 18 months. Despite the increase, brewing coffee at home is still more affordable than buying from a coffee shop or purchasing beans from those same places. And it’s obviously a million times better than office-coffee.
Our daily habits are connected to larger issues but this is a good reminder to appreciate that morning cup even more.

Major FOMO on the newly launched Topps Series 1 but we’re trying to save money over the next few months, so… 🤷♂️
Perfect timing — I guess they were waiting for the AI Summit but French startup Mistral behind the French/European AI (Mistral) just updated and upgraded their platform. Much faster and more powerful. Gonna give it a try for work and play 😊
