Ukraine’s weapons #industry presses #government to allow #arms exports

source: https://www.politico.eu/article/ukraine-arms-industry-export-weapons/

“Imagine what it would look like? #Ukraine #exports its #weapons during the war while asking partners for #military #aid. Ukrainians would not understand, partners would not understand,” said a senior Ukrainian foreign ministry

Ukraine is currently one of the best places to test modern #warfare #equipment against a confirmed #enemy under real conditions at low cost. Just imagine if the war were to end, an entire #business model would collapse. Surely nobody could want that to happen when the arms industry is doing so well.

#Microsoft confirms showing two new #ads on #Windows 11, calls them “notifications”

source: https://www.windowslatest.com/2024/12/19/microsoft-confirms-showing-two-new-ads-on-windows-11-calls-them-notifications/

Windows Latest recently reported that Microsoft is showing new ads on #Windows11, including one for #BlackOps 6: Vault Edition and another for the Microsoft Defender app (the cross-platform version), which requires you to use #Microsoft365. In a statement to Windows Latest, Microsoft confirmed that these “notifications” were indeed served to users.

In the past you used to pay for proprietary software not to get #advertising and today it's the other way around.

Why #Russia will never attack the #EU:

I know there is a lot of #military and patriotic #propaganda out there and the military industrial complex is on the rise because everyone wants to arm themselves because of the Russian #threat.

Let's pause for a moment and think about the reasons why #war is still being waged today:

1) The number one reason is still #religion. Religion serves to unite one's own #community, but is also always a demarcation against others. In Europe and Russia, religion only plays a subordinate role and the churches are struggling with insignificance.

2) The second important reason is natural #resources. Western Europe has long since used up its natural resources and is therefore plundering other countries, mainly in #Africa. Russia has enough natural resources of its own.

3) Population growth so that new living spaces are needed. In #Europe and #Russia, the #population is declining. As a result, many families only have one child and they don't want to lose it to the war.

4) Important geostrategic positions. Europe is losing importance. Russia's most important trading partners are in #Asia. Europe is strategically insignificant.

Europe is increasingly losing importance and therefore wants to feel important militarily. For Russia, an attack would bring no advantage and only high losses. Russia can infiltrate the weakened political system in Europe much more easily by manipulating elections and causing social unrest with propaganda. This hybrid warfare is much more successful than an open war.

The Hidden Environmental #Cost of #SocialMedia

source: https://greenly.earth/en-gb/leaf-media/data-stories/the-hidden-environmental-cost-of-social-media

#TikTok’s primary environmental challenge comes from its video-heavy platform, which consumes significantly more energy than text or image-based platforms. The sheer volume of videos, many of which are hosted on energy-intensive servers, makes TikTok one of the most environmentally costly social media platforms on a per-user basis. For example, streaming short videos on TikTok contributes to higher #emissions per minute of use compared to platforms like Twitter or Facebook, which rely more on text and images.

I get it, you want to create a mood for a TikTok ban for “environmental reasons”. Have you ever thought about how many emissions are caused by the consumption of porn videos? Let's just ban everything that's fun. After all, the big oil companies want to continue polluting the environment and society should focus on banning TikTok.

#Smirnov had relayed to the FBI that the head of the Ukrainian #energy #company #Burisma told him he had paid both #President Biden and his son #HunterBiden $5 million. The claims were false but became central to a House #GOP probe of the Bidens.

Some companies use #video #surveillance and have it analyzed by #AI. This gives you automated reports on the #performance of your #employees. At least the performance that the AI can record. Of course, this creates the exact opposite of what AI should be. Instead of relieving the burden on people, they become the new #slaves of a surveillance #technology. A dystopian scenario straight out of an #Orwell novel.
