Elon has just called himself “Dark Maga” during a rally with . How can science or European government institutions still justify being active on X, a de-facto right-wing extremist propaganda platform?

When I return to Italy for a while and drive a car there, it's easy to realize how Italians are the worst European drivers (ruzzia is not Europe). Uneducated, messy, prepotent, noisy, egoistic, plain stupidly dangerous.

Here in Berlin, the average driver is just slow, inexperienced, and too careful (yes, it's a thing). The fact that the streets are just a hot mess, right now, doesn't help. Many streets are closed because of repair works but they forgot to put someone at work on those.

no no, not a teams meeting, it's a meet meeting. on google meet. it might be called duo for you? i sent you a hangouts to the drive link on messages. no no not your gmail inbox, it's under "all mail", not every email goes to the inbox, haha. or if you're using the classic mode it might be under meetups or promotions. yeah where the chats used to be, before they made google voice an RCS thing. have you got it from google play? no not the green one, the new one with the multicoloured icon. you can only use the green one with legacy members. ok so the problem is you're on workspace for business, it's under google one basic now. did you try quick sharing it? no see you can't use it on a tablet, only a phone or laptop, unless you want the plus features, that only works on phones of course. honestly the easiest way from here is through the docs plugin, unless you wanna family share if you can do vowifi

Today marks 10 years since Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 was shot down. All 298 civilians on board lost their lives. Using open sources, we helped to uncover who was accountable, amongst a wave of disinformation. You can listen to our investigation here: novel.audio/shows/the-bellingc

A decade on, our thoughts today are with the families and friends of the 298 people who never made it to their destination in Kuala Lumpur.

The Bear season 3 is boring af. And that's good thing, actually. It takes all the time it needs to tell you... stories.

I was set back by the hectic rhythm of the first season and it's interesting how the same show can be delivered in different sauces (pun intended).

Also, please lose the Faks.

@Moira@c.im uuh my bad! Thanks. "accomplices" and/or sycophants work (well, better than "accolades" LOL). But I was looking for another word that is similar to "accolades" and I can't find it right now :/

Russia is a terrorist country and putin and his accomplices are a disgusting bunch of cowards and war criminals.

It feels that the best thing that has happened in Berlin in a long while is Wolt. It works exactly how you would expect from a user centered application. Exactly the opposite of almost anything else in this decaying city

@ScienceScholar such a fascinating story! Trapped on an island for 6000 years after 8 of them were not able to go back to mainland... And eventually died for no certain reason

Sometimes my brain brings me gifts. This past night it was a dream that could have easily been a Tarantino movie. Consistent, interesting, extremely violent and a story that I still clearly remember. Thank you!

That little nice warm feeling when you click a link and it opens without cookie banners or newsletter subscription beggings and you just start reading the post. Is that what the future holds? 😅
