#Hungary is a Russian oblast trying to regain its sovereignty. Unfortunately, I don’t think Orban is going willingly when he loses in three weeks. He will cheat, and then use lethal force on the protesters afterwards. Embrace yourself, dear Hungarian freedom lovers. There will be blood.

Here's more information on Germany using the Open Document Format (ODF) in its "Deutschland-Stack", rather than Microsoft's file formats: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2026/03/20/big-news-germany-has-just-made-odf-mandatory/
BIG NEWS: Germany has just made the standard Open Document Format (ODF) mandatory - TDF Community Blog

The German federal government has quietly taken an extremely significant step: hidden amongst the technical specifications of the Deutschland-Stack – the rules that will govern the sovereign digital infrastructure supporting public administration at all levels of government, from federal ministries to local council offices – there is a short but highly significant line. Under the technological pillar “Semantic technologies and real-time analysis”, the document mandates the use of just two document formats: ODF and PDF/UA. That is all. Two open, vendor-neutral formats, defined by international standardisation bodies. OOXML, Microsoft’s closed, proprietary format, is not on the list. What is the Deutschland-Stack? The Deutschland-Stack is the German federal government’s project for a sovereign, interoperable digital infrastructure that complies with European standards. It is neither a pilot project nor a policy discussion paper, but the result of a coordinated decision between the Digital Minister, the Federal Chancellery and the Chancellor, backed by the coalition agreement. The document sets out the standards that will govern how all federal public administrations, at all levels, build, procure and manage their digital systems, and envisages concrete implementation by 2028. It is worth reading its architectural principles carefully. “Made in the EU first.” Reduction of lock-in effects.

Ach, es gibt einen #fensterfreitag ?
Da hab ich was, unprofessionell mit dem handy im Liebieghaus in Frankfurt/M aufgenommen.
In dem es gerade eine wundervolle Tierskulpturenausstellung gibt.

Vel det er jo Trump som har ikke har involvert Europeiske land i beslutningen om å angripe Iran. Han , visepresidenten og valgkamppsonsor Musk har ved hver eneste anledning angrepet europeiske verdier, stiller ikke opp for et Europa som er truet av Russland, truer med å overta Grønland, bruker tolltrusler mot Europa osv osv.

Hvorfor skal de stille opp i en krig som med høy sannsynlighet vil medføre at at europeiske soldater mister liver?

Trump rasende på Europa: – Aldri sett ham så sint

Flere allierte har sagt nei til å hjelpe USA i Hormuzstredet. Det har gjort Donald Trump så sint som Lindsey Graham aldri før har opplevd, ifølge senatoren selv.

For some reason I think its necessary to say this:

Anyone who's saying that we should stop blaming Brexit for the UK's economic travails knows little about economics.

Certainly, the UK's economic problems pre-date Brexit, but the departure from the European Union has compounded & worsened pretty much every negative trend that the UK suffers from....

To deny this is world-class bulls*t.

EU NEWS FOR HUNGARY

I’m planning to start a short Hungarian-language news feed about the EU. In this difficult month before our decisive parliamentary election, I’d like to show people that the EU is more than what they hear from state media.

What sources, technologies, or strategies would you recommend for this endeavour?
