Må komme med en hangry-rant av foodora. Makan til useriøst opplegg har jeg ikke vært borti. Dikter opp estimerte leveringstider, budene finner ikke frem og posisjonen på budet i appen henger ikke på greip. Wolt derimot leverer 10/10 hver gang.

Many people have switched from Twitter to Mastodon, but not everyone who followed me before on Twitter knows that I'm active here also. Will you help me increase my reach on Mastodon? Share this post, boost it or comment and let me know why you're following me. Maybe with some smart hashtags. Thank you! 👍 😊

Yes! 🇩🇰

After UEFA and FIFA decided to let Russian players participate in upcoming soccer turnaments, chairman of the Danish Football Association said their decision does not matter, as no Danish team will ever play against a Russian team.

This is an important position, and I hope we will see this message from many more sports leaders accross the world.

UEFA and FIFA has no power, if we stand together.

Slava Ukraini! ✊🏼⚽️🇺🇦

Advertising revenue continues to plummet at the deadbird site, demonstrating that more and more companies understand the damage they do to themselves by supporting Musk's toxic enterprise.

But journalists continue to support his vile operation, by pouring their work into the place. They are directly helping someone who makes common cause with democracy's enemies. It's sickening.

I think about this graphic at least once a week. What vehicles do to our towns & cities…

Illustration by Swedish artist Karl Jilg showing a street in a town but the road itself is replaced by a deep concrete-walled chasm to demonstrate how much of our world vehicles takeaway from us without us realising.

Finally! 🙌🏼

A Sky News Reporter asks EXACTLY the right question of Elon Musk after his refusal to provide Starlink internet to Ukrainian soldiers amid a dangerous mission:

"Has your ego and ignorance cost Ukrainian lives?"

– Det skumle er at de fleste har ikke mulighet til å gi slike summer, dette er veldig mye penger for folk flest. Men det er en dråpe i havet sammenlignet med hva de rikeste pøser inn i hver eneste valgkamp. Det er et enormt demokratisk problem, som bare vil bli større ettersom mer penger samles på færre hender. På mange måter kjøper de seg forbi det grunnleggende prinsippet om én person, én stemme. Det burde ikke være lov å gi så mye som jeg har gitt engang, langt mindre millioner av kroner.

The Daily Beast is reporting that Elon Musk ordered engineers to switch off his Starlink satellites just as Ukraine was preparing to attack the Russian naval fleet with drones. He said he feared nuclear retaliation by Russia. It’s high time we ask the question: How much power and influence does it make sense to hand just one person?

I just had to update my numbers for a lecture, so here's your periodic reminder: Starlink is now 55% of ALL active satellites in orbit.

And given the recent news about that awful billionaire unilaterally deciding to cut of Starlink internet access to parts of the world whenever he wants to, this is extra important to share. Why did our governments effectively gift Low Earth Orbit to one awful dude? This is so bad.

Tinder burde laget en auto swipe-funksjon basert på tidligere swipes. De må jo ha mer enn nok av datapunkter for å kunne predikere hvilken vei en bruker vil swipe på en gitt profil?

‼️🇺🇦No, it is both unconstitutional and logistically impossible, so stop asking! Western media again pushed for an illegal election being held in Ukraine. "It is impossible to hold elections in Ukraine during the war, as millions of citizens are currently abroad, and they need to be given the opportunity to vote," the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Dmytro Kuleba, said in an interview with the French TV channel France 5. #Ukraine #Press #News #RussiaUkraineWar

"I'd like to tamper expectation about the new #Ukrainian activity behind the tank ditch near #Verbove.

The available evidence does not mean this is a "confirmed breach" of the #Surovikin line.

Ukrainian forces very well may have breached it, but we need more evidence."

Reposting this with alt text. In fact the entire description is in the alt text.

Exhibit by Michael Rakowitz in Vienna. A car-shaped tent has been constructed by the roadside, occupying a parking space. Someone in a yellow sleeved jacket is leaning out, fastening a zipper. In the background, pedestrians are walking on the sidewalk.Exhibit by Michael Rakowitz in Vienna. A split image. On the left, the person looks out of the tent door. In the second, the person sits inside the tent, on the cobblestones, reading a newspaper. 

We're conditioned to see this behavior as selfish and as taking public space away from others, and yet if they were in a car most people would think nothing of the same behaviors.

Germany once again leading the #MastodonMigration: The parliament of the federal state of #RheinlandPfalz stops posting to #X/#Twitter and will use #Mastodon instead.

It speaks of problematic developments under #ElonMusk and says, that for example #Nazi content is now barely moderated over there. And also that the significance of Twitter shrinks.

Something I love about Oslo: This city is incredibly quiet.

Lots of people are walking/biking/scooting. And most vehicles are electric, while speed limits are typically 30 km/hr (19 mph), so engine/tire noise is negligible.

A reminder that cities aren't loud; *cars* are loud.

Hi. If you see "Biden only gave {tiny amount} to help {issue X} while spending millions on Ukraine" in any of your social media, that is propaganda. It's from Putin's disinfo shops aimed at convincing the west to stop supporting Ukrainian defenses against the Russian invasion.

You can and should report and block those accounts.

⚡️Zelensky rules out giving away Ukrainian territory in return for peace.

Ukraine will not consider giving away part of the country's territory to Russia in some kind of "exchange” as a part of a potential peace deal, president Volodymyr Zelensky said during a press conference with Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte on Aug. 20 in Eindhoven.

In Zelensky's words, negotiations with the Kremlin can only take place on the basis of the peace plan earlier proposed by Ukraine.
