Mullvad VPNMass surveillance and censorship are escalating in many countries right now. There is a global attack on secure encrypted communication. Often, authorities, politicians, and tech companies work together to push for new laws. One example: when Ashton Kutcher (yes, the actor), through his tech company Thorn, tried to introduce total surveillance of all EU citizens through undemocratic and corrupt methods.

Explanation: Are lasers from giant telescopes being used to defend the Earth? No. Lasers shot from telescopes are now commonly used to help increase the accuracy of astronomical observations. In some directions, Earth atmosphere-induced fluctuations in starlight can indicate how the air mass over a telescope is changing, but in other directions, no bright star exists. In these directions, astronomers can create an artificial star with a laser. Subsequent observations of the artificial laser guide star can reveal information so detailed about the changing blurring effects of the Earth's atmosphere that much of it can be removed by rapidly flexing a telescope's mirror. Such adaptive optics techniques allow high-resolution ground-based observations of real stars, planets, and nebulas. Pictured here, telescopes at Paranal Observatory in Chile study a colorful sky filled with green airglow and the Magellanic Clouds on the left, red airglow on the right, and the majestic central band of our Milky Way Galaxy arching across the center.
kravietz 🦇#Russia journalists visited #Vuhledar occupied by Russian army since 2024 and complain that the town is ruined, abandoned and devoid of any administration in spite of civilians living there (Russian audio, English/Polish subtitles). Just to be clear, this is Russian state media describing destruction brought to a town in Ukraine as part of Russian “liberation”.

BellingcatA satellite imagery analysis conducted by Bellingcat shows that at least 15 police stations or police-related buildings were targeted in strikes conducted in Tehran between March 1 and March 3. https://www.bellingcat.com/news/middle-east/2026/03/04/satellite-imagery-reveals-strikes-on-iranian-police-stations/?utm_source=mstdn
Satellite Imagery Reveals Strikes on Iranian Police Stations - bellingcat
The US has released a list of military targets in Iran, including IRGC headquarters and missile systems. But Bellingcat has reviewed strikes against another type of target inside the Islamic Republic — police stations.
Tea time.
Euromaidan PressRussia lost more tanks in four years than all of NATO owns.
It doesn't need them anymore. Four years of data show a war machine replacing itself—cheaper, deadlier, and aimed at Europe. 🧵

Erik JonkerReading many posts about "oh, how awful is GenAI , it was wrong and hallucinated", that is the nature of this technology folks... You have to think about the context where you are using it and implement it in a way so you can mitigate this risk, accept it, or choose NOT to use it.

Exactly.
I'm in favour of EU subsidies on agriculture, it is inevitable in a richer continent like Europe, otherwise not only food will cost more, but also land management would be much more expensive.
On the other hand it is crazy how much EU trade policy is held back by a lobby that lives off the EU.
GMOs are held back too, even if farmers with animals are very happy to import cheap GMOs to feed their animals.
Randahl FinkWhen the war in Ukraine broke out, and Europe was hesitant in the first year, I thought alright, this is a surprise to everyone and of course we need time to prepare.
Now 4 years have passed, and we are 450 million EU and 69 million UK citizens still standing on the sidelines, telling 38 million Ukrainians they should fight 133 million Russians on their own.
We could end this war. Instead we keep pretending that it is fine to let Ukraine take all the punches.
I find that profoundly shameful.
