Für alle, die es vergessen haben: KKR ist finanziell mit dem Axel Springer Verlag (der über "Bild" und "Welt" anti-Grüne Propaganda betreibt) verflochten. Und ein großer Anteil an KKR gehört Black Rock, der Heuschreckenverein für den Kanzler Friedrich Merz jahrelang gearbeitet haben soll. Merz hat Reiche angeheuert und hält ihr jetzt den Rücken frei. Das nennt sich dann wohl "fossile Kreislaufwirtschaft".

Newspapers--now only 10% of AP revenue--have been dropping the service as the AP turns to AI and prediction markets. News is commodified. Mass media are dying.

AP says it will offer buyouts, part of pivot from newspaper-focused history

The Associated Press says it will offer buyouts to an unspecified number of its U.S.-based journalists as part of an acceleration away from the focus on newspapers and their print journalism that sustained the company for more than 1½ centuries. The news organization is becoming more focused on visual journalism and developing new revenue sources, particularly through companies investing in artificial intelligence. That's to cope with the economic collapse of many legacy news outlets. Once the lion’s share of AP’s revenue, big newspaper companies now account for 10% of its income. Julie Pace, AP's executive editor, says that “we’re not a newspaper company and we haven’t been for quite some time.

Wenn Wolfgang Kubicki deine Hoffnung ist, dann möcht ich deine Verzweiflung nicht sehen.
Acts of simple sabotage, multiplied by thousands of citizen- saboteurs, can be an effective weapon against the enemy.

Have to try to start playing tetris to pack my car with all the stuff we acquired in the last few months of travel (and decide if it's worth mailing anything to ourselves instead). And make decisions about weather and the long drive to Sask.

Given everything else that's happening, everyone needs a few more absurdly gorgeous night sky photos I took 2 weeks ago in the Tekapo Dark Sky Reserve, in the best night skies I've ever seen in my life (despite all the satellites. Sigh.)

Das deutsche EUDI-Wallet (Sprind) setzt auf Google Play Integrity und Apple App Attest zur Geräteverifizierung – beides proprietäre Attestierungsdienste der jeweiligen Plattformhersteller.

Nach heutigem Dokumentationsstand ist für Android ein Aktivierungspfad vorgesehen, der Google Play Integrity voraussetzt. Ein degoogletes Android ohne Google-Play-Komponenten fällt damit voraussichtlich raus. Was das in der Praxis bedeutet: Kein Custom-ROM, kein entsperrter Bootloader, kein degoogeltes Android.

Der digitale EU-Ausweis – ein staatliches Identitätsmittel – hängt damit strukturell von Google und Apple ab. Ob das im Sinne digitaler Souveränität ist, darf jeder selbst beurteilen.

Bemerkenswert, welche Verrenkungen ich einnehme, um das Katz auf dem Sofa nicht zu stören.
Belastend, wie pikiert das Katz trotzdem guckt.

Crass stupidity from the New York Times.

The war currently raging is between a fanatical religious dictatorial autocracy whose militaristic posture, nuclear ambitions and zeal for apocalyptic messaging threaten to destabilize the entire global order, and Iran.
