It seems we get lucky with the tropical storm #debby - but still expect heavy rain and wind gusts.

@npub1r8w…eav0 Ich habe ca 1/2 der Familie und alten Freundeskreis an die Schwurbler verloren.

Ah yes - #McDonalds used to use #rail to do its logistics in #Switzerland. I found a picture from 2015.
I do not know if that is still the case, but it was impressive.

"#Glencore was founded in 1974 by Marc Rich, widely viewed as the godfather of the modern commodity trading industry, who fled to Switzerland when faced with US criminal charges in 1983 for trading with Iran."
Whenever something really horrible happens, #Switzerland is somewhere and somewhat in.
It's always justice from outside Switzerland to end it and/or to punish it.

How many buzzwords can you put in one headline?
@npub185n…luq0 : Yes!
"Mit GenAI, LLMs und KGs in eine neue Ära der Data Science".

@npub1fpe…75rh That's not that easy with USB 3+.
It used to be easy to have cables only allowing charging. Nowadays this would mean 500 mW charging....

Please - wherever you are - never use an offered #USB cable/ port to charge your device. Always use a power brick connected to a wall socket. Never ever data will be transferred like this - if you trust your own power brick.

When #science doesn't count anything anymore in this country but only #theology, the wish of patrons, donors and the appeasement to one political party - then the country is set to be doomed soon. With Christian crosses, Bibles and hate destroying itself.

It's amazing to see how many buses a single subway rail line needs to be temporarily replaced for track construction.
#mbta rail replacement buses for the red line. Full buses every 2-3 minutes, bus berth full of buses. And that's only one line!
Don't underestimate the capacity of a subway train system!

The "#cloud " extorting more and more their customers... Nothing new. But it gets more and more dramatic. #onprem

Satire is dead. #TheAtlantic with an article stating that #democracy died behind paywalls. That article is - behind a #paywall.

@npub1c9e…zhes They execute the orders of #Putin in the #Kremlin. Many call this party "Alternative für Russland". In Eastern Germany many still side with Russia, having forgotten completely all the negative facts of the former communist East Germany And they hate the US - and hope for Trump to stop the NATO "to have peace with Russia".
Parts of the "young alternative" (AfD youth) socialize with Putin's youth organization.

France is hitting a new low by proposing a law requiring web #Browser providers to include a national government-edited list for websites/URLs to block.
You remember the #France #cryptoban in the 1990ies? Where only noobs actually compiled programs with -DFRANCE to disable encryption?
That's the same here and an open invitation for everyone country being able to #censor what they want.
