Dieser aktuelle globale Demokratie-Report ist erschreckend - ganz besonders das ausführliche USA-Kapitel.
Nur noch 7% der Weltbevölkerung leben in liberalen Demokratien.

🚨 Google is responsible for nearly 3/4ths of all desktop web searches; ChatGPT is smaller than you might think.
A new study from @randfish.bsky.social - Check it out: sparktoro.com/blog/new-res...
Morning.
"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending. . . there have been no convictions.

Tweet from Harry Sisson stating that the FBI interviewed a girl who accused Trump of assault when she was 13–15 years old and deemed her credible, followed by the question, “Exonerated by who, exactly?” Embedded below is a screenshot of a tweet quoting Trump saying he has been totally exonerated regarding Jeffrey Epstein.
The FBI has not released all the evidence it has on this victim or her allegations against Trump. Her story was credible enough to be used to sue Epstein successfully and help convict Ghislaine Maxwell. Why can't the world see an unredacted 302 report?
I think (hope!) he's just barefoot while crossing the river at the start
The first loop 2 finishers: Sébastien Raichon in 22:35:40; Mathieu Blanchard :42; Damian Hall :44. At the same time, another loop 2 runner has quit and is tapped out. #BM100
In the least shocking news ever, the DOJ illegally redacted Trump's name from manyEpstein files. [And of course that doesn't count the ones they just didn't release because they are about Trump]

🤖 Yahoo! released Scout, its new AI search engine, a few days ago, and it has, hands down, the most “open web” friendly interface compared to ChatGPT or AI Mode… and honestly, the best interface overall 👇 www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...
"Ich hab ein Sackerl mit Schokolade da irgendwo liegen gelassen - haben Sie das vielleicht gefunden?"
Die gute Nachricht: Ich hab es gefunden. Das ist irgendwie zugleich auch die schlechte Nachricht.
Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask:
"If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"
It's bizarre that some politicians are trying to behave as if the US president were sane, or capable of reason or moral judgement.
„Trump stößt die Allianz zwischen den USA und Europa an einen Abgrund“, ist der aktuelle Aufmacher der NYT.
Andrew Kadel @DrewKadel@social.coop My daughter, who's had a degree in computer science for 25 years, posted this about ChatGPT on Facebook. It's the best description I've seen. Something that seems fundamental to me about ChatGPT, which gets lost over and over again: When you enter text into it, you're asking "What would a response to this sound like?" If you put in a scientific question, and it comes back with a response citing a non-existent paper with a plausible title, using a real journal name and an author name who's written things related to your question, it's not being tricky or telling lies or doing anything at all surprising! This is what a response to that question would sound like! It did the thing! But people keep wanting the "say something that sounds like an answer" machine to be doing something else, and believing it *is* doing something else. It's good at generating things that sound like responses to being told it was wrong, so people think that it's engaging in introspection or looking up more information or something, but it's not, it's only, ever, saying something that sounds like the next bit of the conversation.
The only thing ChatGPT ever does.

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies
Bundespräsident Alexander Van der Bellen begrüßt EU-Kommissar Magnus Brunner in der Präsidentschaftskanzlei.
Gerade dann, wenn Europa von außen geteilt oder beherrscht werden soll, ist es wichtig, dass wir Europäer gemeinsam handeln. Wir bestimmen selber, wohin der Weg geht. Österreich soll und wird weiter eine konstruktive Rolle auf diesem Weg einnehmen. 1️⃣
That Sen. Budd doesn’t understand the difference between is embarrassing.
Der US-Präsident erklärt das bedeutendste Medium des Landes zum „Volksfeind“ und verlangt, dass es „gestoppt“ wird.
Aber Europa hat ein Problem mit Meinungsfreiheit… 🤯🤯🤯
An important point here: this is not just about EU lawmakers being banned from entering the US.
As the ICC judges & Francesca Albanese have found out, being sanctioned means you can't carry out basic daily tasks like banking, because Europe's economy is America-controlled.
Maria Shriver, niece of JFK:
He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial.
C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.
Screenshot of a tweet from OSINTdefender reporting that a JetBlue Airbus A320 nearly collided midair with a U.S. Air Force KC-135R tanker over the Southern Caribbean; below the text is a photo of a JetBlue airplane taxiing on a runway.
Thank goodness tragedy was averted. But we shouldn't even be there with our military in the first place.
Even when confronted with a 🇺🇸 #NationalSecurityStrategy planning their ouster, our centrist leaders have been silent in response.
Merz's much-lauded 'end of the Pax Americana' speech only spoke of US isolationism, not aggression.
But the 🇪🇺Defence Commissioner just said the quiet part out loud:
Für Traillaüfer bringt es sehr viel - besonders für Minimierung das Verletzungsrisiko.

Consumer Reports ranks Teslas as the least reliable used cars. "The best of the worst [ten] was Chevrolet at a score of 40. But Tesla makes that failing grade seem respectable with its absolute rock bottom rating of 31, trailing Jeep by just one point.” futurism.com/advanced-tra...

Sollte alle in EU, aber besonders Politiker von Twitter runter!
Falls wieder einmal Ministerien und Politiker X verlassen wollen: hier wäre ein Argument.

Fascinating take on our present
