@EUCommission is there any plan in motion to stop this monopoly from Google on Android? reCAPTCHA now also requires a Google Certified device status. Soon won't be able to use apps without being locked to Google.

EU needs to take a stand on Play Integrity. If app devs enforce Play Integrity, this means only Google Certified devices can use banking, etc. This excludes all alternative mobile OS. No #postmarketOS, no #SailfishOS, no Android derivatives #GrapheneOS etc. You don't need Play Integrity. If someone is capable to install or use alternative OS, they sure know what to install or not install, it is on their responsibility. Using non-root but bootloader unlocked device (otherwise can't use alternative OS) does not make my device less secure. On the contrary, it is using an up to date OS with the latest security patches. Do we really want all mobile devices have to be Google Certified? No. #mobile #integrity #bootloader #unlocked #nonsense #Europe

How wasn't this already in the news?

Shit's so fucking weird right now. Any other time in history, some president decided to go 4x4 riding through the reflecting pool and there'd be a massive spike in the robe industry as all current ones got rent.

But not this time. This time it apparently comes out after vandals are blamed for the result.

Why did Trump go 4x4ing in the pool? Why wouldn't he? America don't respect herself enough to stop him.

Did Trump's motorcade drive through newly painted reflecting pool?

A White House official posted a video of the motorcade crossing the landmark on May 7, 2026.

Here’s a thought on the current heatwave that is absolutely destroying humankind across Europe atm: maybe we should push for a regulation to allow people — ALL people — to stop working in temperatures above 30C. The economy would collapse and finally politicians would take fighting the climate crisis as a priority, rather than leaning into the bullshit narrative that “summer is summer” from their air-conditioned ivory towers.

Governments should subsidize heat pumps (and solar/wind) and require them in building codes, including a requirement that they can be fully used for heating and for cooling; as well as expedite phasing out other means of heating.

This is a public health and safety issue.
