For those not following Hungarian politics, elections are a bit more than a month away, and just put the army on high alert because he says Ukraine may attack the Hungarian energy infrastructure.

This is clearly performance propaganda aimed at scaring ignorant people but it shows the government is grasping at straws at this point.

Still, I wouldn't count them out.

Slovakia’s Prime Minister Robert Fico said he will ask state energy operator SEPS to halt emergency electricity supplies to Ukraine.

Fico said if Slovakia is expected to source gas and oil from suppliers other than Russia — at higher cost — his government has the right to respond. He added that Slovakia would not act as a “submissive servant” to external pressure from Brussels, Kyiv, Washington or Moscow.

Måske ikke overraskende, og så alligevel. Orbans fidesz parti bruger klassisk USSR drejebog for at undgå at tabe næste valg. Honeypot til modkandidaten. euronews.com/my-europe/2026/02

Orbán attacks Brussels, but Hungary’s system depends on the EU.

Its economy relies on the single market, EU funds and foreign investment. Most exports go to Europe, and most citizens support membership.

Outside the EU, Hungary would lose money, influence and stability.

The reality: without Europe, Orbán’s model doesn’t work.

There are a lot of claims by political leaders and pundits on both sides of the Atlantic that the #USA and #Europe are united by a common "European culture". And I really think we should stop saying that.

For Europeans, this was a useful way of flattering their American hegemon by emphasizing common bonds. But the American hegemony is fraying, and staying within it does not withstand a cost-benefit analysis. Another motivation is #racism - when the same people talk about "Judeo-Christian values" of the "West", it was usually not because they actually cared about Jews or had any understanding of Judaism - but because including Jews was a convenient way of deflecting racism when they excluded European Muslims.

For the white elites of the USA, emphasizing "European culture" as the center of the USA was a way of reinforcing #WhiteSupremacy , and downplaying or dismissing the contributions of non-white people. This current was always there, but has risen to the forefront of the #TrumpAdministration who now support European fascist allies in order to supercharge White Supremacy in Europe as well.

So by supporting the notion that the USA and Europe are part of the same culture, we support the propaganda of some pretty horrible people. This alone should be enough reason to stop doing so. But there is more.

"The USA has no culture!" is a common claim among Europeans, which is pure snobbery and bigotry. And by reducing the USA to a cultural appendix of Europe, we deny the agency of Americans throughout the centuries.

The USA of today _have_ some European roots, but these were never the _only_ cultural roots the USA have. And over the course of the past few centuries, they have diverged greatly from Europe, and have become a cultural powerhouse in their own right. We should respect and accept that they _have_ these political differences, and that Europe and the USA are now largely different cultural zones.

We can only move forward if we see each other clearly.

So i must say me and other IT people didn't give a fair test of @delta in the past, and i must say.

I'm surprised to see it's possible to deliver email so fast that it's an instant messenger.

And without hyperscaler (what signal said is impossible)

On January 30, the EU Council voted to endorse a two-year extension of "Chat Control 1.0". This is a significant setback. If passed, it legalizes the mass scanning of private messages and photos by US tech giants using error-prone AI, without any suspicion of crime. It also paves the way for mandatory ID verification (ending anonymity) and effectively bans anyone under 17 from using messaging apps. potentially preventing them from even chatting with their own parents.

However, the fight is not over.

The Council's vote is not the final word. Under EU legislative procedures, the European Parliament must also agree to the extension. Right now, the power to stop this lies with the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE).

They are deliberating this week to set the Parliament's position before the current regulation expires in April. If the LIBE Committee stands firm and rejects the extension, this mass surveillance regime can still be stopped.

We must act now to influence their decision.

Please do not stay silent. Contact the LIBE Committee members. Tell them to reject the extension of the Regulation and to defend our fundamental right to privacy.

We need targeted, judicial solutions, not a permanent state of mass surveillance.

THE US GOVERNMENT WANTS TO BRING ICE TO ITALY FOR THE WINTER OLYMPICS. THIS SOUNDS ALMOST BENIGN AS LONG AS YOU SPELL IT IN ALL-CAPS.

I hope other parties will support this common sense measure!

And fair play to the Hope and Courage Collective for the great work that they have been doing on this issue!

My article on @TheJournal goes into more detail on the harms that these toxic algorithms cause: thejournal.ie/prev/6901718/dvO
