”Våra stora klassiska skalder ligga förgätna, Bellman lever endast på sina melodier, och nyare vitterhet och konst betraktas ungefär som en icke straffbar förbrytelse. ”
Verner von Heidenstam, ”Om svenskarnas lynne” (1914).

This is not the place to embark on a lecture, even a short one, on Chinese astronomy.

You are horrified at our intending to do away with private property. But in your existing society, private property is already done away with for nine-tenths of the population; its existence for the few is solely due to its non-existence in the hands of those nine-tenths.
It's probably possible to provide worse customer support than @tomtom but I'm not sure how. Spent ages getting the useless chatbot to connect me to a human, now waited an hour and a half for that human to show up.

Nicolas Cage says "protect yourselves from AI."
“There is another world that is also disturbing me, and it’s happening right now around all of us — the new AI world. I am a big believer in not letting robots dream for us. Robots cannot reflect the human condition for us. That is a dead end if an actor lets one AI robot manipulate his or her performance even a little bit, an inch will eventually become a mile and all integrity, purity and truth of art will be replaced by financial interests only. We can’t let that happen. The job of all art in my view, film performance included, is to hold a mirror to the external and internal stories of the human condition through the very human thoughtful and emotional process of recreation. A robot can’t do that. If we let robots do that, it will lack all heart and eventually lose edge and turn to mush. There will be no human response to life as we know it. It will be life as robots tell us to know it. I say, protect yourselves from AI interfering with your authentic and honest expressions.”

Cynisk idag: om stora delar av Europa blir lika beroende av svensk el som de varit av rysk gas ger det klirr i kassan och en helt annan makt i unionen.

Beginning to understand why so many Americans are obsessed with trans issues and panicking about being replaced. They think there are 21x more trans people, 27x more muslims, 15x more jews, 5x more asians, 3x more black people, and 2x more immigrants than there actually are.
Min mobil har fortfarande den här för jag har inte uppdaterat sedan namnbytet. Den funkar, så skit ner dig, Elon.
Jag tror att en underskattad faktor med bolagisering och privatisering är att de ger möjlighet att avhända sig allt ansvar.
Jag undrar när folk ska inse att sett från regeringens synvinkel har de knappt misslyckats med något – det går precis som planerat. Det är meningslöst att fråga vad de tänker göra åt det du tycker är dåligt när de tycker att det är bra.

The truth: Racist Israeli football hooligans (Ultras) rampaged through Amsterdam, ripping down Palestinian flags, chanting “death to Arabs,” and attacking people. In response, locals jumped them, gave them a taste of their own medicine, and kicked them out.
The disinfo:
